HyperX CloudX Flight Wireless Headset Review - Performance without Hassle for Xbox

On paper, the HyperX CloudX Flight wireless gaming headset is beat by the Turtle Beach Stealth 700 Gen 2 in almost every way (except having nearly double the battery life). In real world performance though, the CloudX Flight does an amazing job of keeping things simple and functional. The default and only EQ profile is smooth but still presents good detail, and the mic has a decent balance of background noise rejection and clarity. All in all, it's a great mic if you just want to plug and play without messing around with any settings.

    Funny that most comments go towards the HyperX. I've got those and will be returning to get the Turtle beach following this video. I want to be able to fiddle with the settings and have the extra connectivity. I don't like having to switch the dongle between PC and xbox. Just hoping that the mic is on par, the comments here are split, the review gives a thumbs up to Turtle beach. Solid review, thanks for that!

    Just a heads up guys, if you use an external hard drive that plugged into the back of your series x, make sure you put the headset dongle in the front of the console. If youve ever had interference with wireless headsets that connect through a dongle, it's cause the USB slot with external hard drive gives off signals that interferes with the connection.

    *PIN COMMENT FOR HYPER X CLOUD X FLIGHT USERS WHO HAVE BAD AUDIO EXPERIENCE* Note: This is a stereo headset. To take advantage of accurate footstep pinpointing and gun firing/sound directionality you'll need to listen to the games master soundtrack (which is stereo uncompressed) Please make sure your xbox general audio settings are as follows- Speaker audio- *uncompressed* Headset audio- *uncompressed* -Any other setting that isn't uncompressed (like bitstream out and dts digital sound) will ruin the game sound. PERIOD. I'm a ranked top 100 SND player and I can verify this headset is amazing at sound whoring/pinpointing footsteps/ foot shifts/ gun swaps and crouch walking. I can hear things and pick up footsteps 97% of other people won't hear. My call outs are godlike. And my 1v4, 1vs5, 1vs6 clutches are purely cause of my ability to hear enemies exactly where they are and time it perfectly. Don't assume this headset sucks with sound stage(footsteps and directionality) if you aren't using the proper audio settings for this headset. Please pin ❤️ I know two people who got these and had the wrong audio settings and assumed these are trash..THEY ARE NOT AT ALL. FOR $160. LOVE THEM

    Hi, and thanks for the kind words. I would think you'd enjoy the sound of the 700 Gen 2 (use the vocal preset), and it sounds great out of the box. I feel the Cloud Flights are a small step back compared to the Clouds. Wireless pulls some of the details out a little unfortunately but overall it's not bad. It's not as bright as the SteelSeries signature sound. I think Astro has a great smooth sound to them, but they're slightly over priced for what you get right now. I hope they come out with a new model soon!

I also just returned the Sennheiser game ones. I’m telling you man. All these headphones are too painful in the mids and highs. I tried EQing the 9X. I tried EQIng the Sennheiser’s to drop some mids and boost lows and highs and make more of a smiley face EQ. Just sounds like crap. I find the hyper X cloud X. Even though it’s on the lower end of the price range. They just sound fantastic right out of the box. Even the microphone sounds great. My only complaint about the hyper X cloud X is that the wire is not detachable. I’ve had many issues with dust getting into the wheel volume control. Many cans of high-pressure spray lol.

The only dislike i have is not being able to have the game and chat volume just right. I recently bought TB stealth 600, for a good price and honestly highly disappointed in them. The mic sensitivity is so bad that my friends can hear my dog walking/running, and hear people talking in the next room. I love the sound quality and the feel. My question(s) is the stealth 700 sensitive as well? Is the flight mic quality the same as the alphas or worse?

    Thank you for this review. I am looking for a headset for the Xbox series x. What bothers me the most is the chance of connectivity loss. Almost 9/10 websites tell me the Arctic 9x is the best Xbox series X headset. But I also read comments about connectivity loss and also this "Arctis 9X uses the "Xbox Wireless" technology that was developed by Microsoft. Does the Arctic 9x has a different usb dongle (software) then the HyperX CloudX Flight wireless? I cant find any information about that.

    They are good but do not buy them. They brake from the ear up. Great headset but I went through 3 pairs in 2 years. This is the last replacement I’m getting I had to buy them twice. Artic 9x my review.

    I have the stealth 700 right now and I hate them. They disconnect quite a bit when I’m mid game and it drives me insane. They don’t turn the mic on sometimes when powered up and you have to turn them off and on again multiple times. I’m going to try these hyper X’s. I use mine for Warzone for reference.

Its either pic up everything or noise gate and have to scream at it while it cuts in and out since it sits at my cheek. I need 700gen 2 functions( BT pairing) with a wrap around mic.

    Sorry to hear Boosted! My 700g2s have actually been excellent without much of a mic issue. Sorry to hear you had such a rough experience. The CloudX Flight definitely tops the reliability/stability/consistency ranks. Sound quality is a little lower than Astro/TB with game mix however, but it's still pretty good. I used them last night on Warzone for a few hours and still loved them.

    Yes they do! They work on all Xbox One's and Series S and X. Super easy set up....plug in the USB dongle, the Series x immediately recognizes headset and your ready to use them in seconds. Highly recommend spending the $$ on the Dolby Atmos App. It allows you to have 3 custom EQ settings and then a general gaming setting which is readily available. With Atmos, I'd say this headset is on par with and nor not better than my Gen 3 Astro A50's.

    I haven't tried that yet so I'm not sure how well it will work. In many cases, the mic swap doesn't make a massive difference. It's often the way the chip/firmware sends the mic signal to the console/PC. Low bitrate is likely to help with latency/stability.
