The TRUTH About The HyperX Cloud Stinger Wireless Gaming Headset
HyperX makes some of the best and most affordable gaming headsets on the market today and their Cloud Stinger Wireless is trying to continue that tradition. But as the review went on and we tested sound quality, range, battery life and the mic a lot of good and bad things were found. There's also the Cloud Stinger vs Cloud Flight question that needs to be answered.

I actually have these Cloud Stingers and I mean these actually sound pretty good and not at all how he demonstrated. I got them new for $55 on ebay a few weeks ago and so that's also something else. I overall recommend them unless you really need that precise sound stage during gaming. If you need to hear your game and just need an ok mic this headset is worth it.

YES THANK YOU IVE BEEN WAITING FOR A REVIEW FOR THIS HEADSET
Please give the microphone noise gating proper testing when you look at headsets. Reviews rarely get this right. How likely a mic is to pick up background noises should have a major impact on recommendations. Talking over the key strokes really doesn’t do enough, because your voice opens the noise gate. I would appreciate it if you sat at your desk with an unmuted mic, hitting keys, clicking and moving mugs around.
All I want is an open-back wireless gaming headset. All I want is for it to be better, if not at least on par to my SHP9500. I've been spoiled by open-back headsets, so if someone can make a wireless open-back for under $150, I'd love 'em. Literally just make the SHP9500 wireless for $50 more and I'd buy it. I don't even need a microphone on it to cut costs (even though it seems like most wireless headsets have like a $3 microphone attached to them).
I have had the Cloud flight for 3 years. Very nice sound and comfortable. Just replaced the earcups for memory foam, bought those at amazon, no more sweaty ears. Battery Life is still strong. \
Would you recommend getting these and not worrying about the mic quality since im getting these with a hyperx quadcast as a microphone
I have both and i must say. Comfort : stinger Sound quality: cloud flight Mic: cloud flighti also must say i prefer the mic of the stinger because its easy to mute and you know when it is muted. Also cloud flight has bagger battery life but the software is not precieze and you dont have any less om the head phone wich stinger has. I bought both of them for 80 euro and the one i usdle is stinger. Only reason i dont use cloud flight is because the top part is not comfortable i hurts my head after a hour.
I have the wired cloud stinger and love them. Not sure whether to get these or the cloud flight
I bought the original Stinger and took it back that day because it was like a vice grip on my head. I ended up getting the Steelsteries Arctis 5 which I like. Its comfortable and sounds good. At Walmart, I saw the Astro A10 which looks interesting but got a 3 star rating. A friend of mine swears on the HyperX Cloude 2 which is $100, but the Cloud X which looks to have the same body style (but made for consoles) is going for $70.
I love cloud flight’s detachable mic and the fact that I can turn off the mic with one touch. But, I wouldn't say I like stinger’s design, but on almost every website and nearly every person says stinger has a better sound which makes me so hard to choose between these two. Any recommendations?
It it compatible with mobile devices? And can it be programmed on mobile devices?
The HS70 are some of the most uncomfortable and painful headsets I have ever warn. Please you have been warned the HS70 are absolutely horrible in terms of comfort

I decided to go all out and hopefully get headphones I wouldn’t have to replace and the Steelseries Arctis Wireless Pro has been a dream so far.
great review D, you're the reason i bought the HyperX Revolver S and i've never looked back :)
Love to see a review of the Steelseries Arctis x9 for xbox. Keep up your good work. 👍
The sponsor ad cracked me up xD
Personally, I bought myself some Void Pro Wireless headphones for €65 refurbished, never been happier. Sound quality is pretty nice, and even its relatively subpar microphone can be salvaged by raising its bitrate in your sound settings. Overall, I'm more than satisfied. Might invest in that ModMic hype later, however!
How about sir if the dongle lost? What should we do? Hoping for your favorable response
Honest review. Appreciate it
This headset is just amazing had it for 4 years and just upgraded to the cloud III wireless
"the soundstage is quiet Naruto"
So you can’t use these on Xbox?
Tried many headphones, and I didn't want to go to the amplifier/dac way, because it's always fun to use your main headsets with e.g. a nintendo switch or whatever from time to time. Due to the low resistance. So after many using many headphones, my favorite is still the Philips fidelio X2(HR). Despite having an open back, it still packs a very good base and overall very good sound quality. But quite pricey. But I am at least never going back to "gaming headphones/headsets". Sure there some cheapers that do justify their low price at least somewhat, but simply ain't worth it overall imho.

Mine just broke today man 😭 Just got myself a pair of HS70 PRO for 100bucks so i guess that works. The flights had a duration of 2 years and 10 days but honestly not entirely the build quality's fault they broke as i slammed them to the ground trying to catch them falling from my head 😂 But a metal hinges would probably have made them more durable. RIP Cloud Flights 17.01.2020-27.01.2022.

Would you recommend these or the Turtle Beach Stealth 600p Gen 2?
Is it compatible with phone and laptop is mac
The USB-C port broke so not sure if it has some durability issues.
Appreciate the reference of the amazon ratings. Too often, I see techtubers recommend something highly, and see it have really poor ratings on amazon that somewhat invalidate the points made in the review.
so it doesn’t work on xbox?
Most wireless mics are so bad, thats why most people stay wired, i would definitly choose the cloud alpha instead of this one.
hey! i got this exact headphone and it stopped working randomly when it was perfectly fine, can you please tell him how to fix it? i believe i have to reset it but i dont know how thank you!
Another solid video Dmitry. 👍🏻
so do they use bluetooth or the usb port connection but wireless
The only thing I dislike about mine is the mic. Bad sound and but mustly because I't not removable. Everything else is great, I've had mine for almost 4 years.
I've owned a pair of these headphones for 2 years and just an FYI for any individuals that having to recharge constantly and leave it on charge while playing can lead to battery degradation and thus my 17 hr battery life has gone to only lasting 30 minutes in just 2 years
How to turn off battery low notification? Its very disturbing if you play a game, but your headset always sounding low battery notification
I have a question. I recently bought a pair and i keep hearing a static sound when i turn them on. I tryed fixing it but nothing seems to work. Has anyone experienced this or is it normal to hear this static sound. Pls help
Dimitri do you have plans review Cooler Master MH751?
Good vid as always!
Does the white one HyperX cloud stinger wireless compatible for pc as well?
I use the Oculus Rift s and when it comes to using headphones, I have no choice but to use the wireless rechargeable ones. I play a lot of VR games that require the player to stand up and walk around.
So does it mean the stinger wired sound quality is better than the wireless stinger?
Man, been using this shit for 8 years and it's absolutely amazing, get it, you'll never regret it
can u use these headsets on smartphone? using otg adapter?

hyperx cloud stinger core wireless 7.1 gaming it works Xbox Series X?
What do I do because mine can not charge i dont know why
I got rid of my LucidSound 40s and wasn't able to get the top abilities to utilize them as Xbox One does not support usb headset and mic usage. I ended up sending back and getting the Hyper X cloud 2's and save 100 dollars in the process, however still am not able to utilize the 7.1 surround sound because it only works through USB as they work great on my pc. Wish I could utilize the USB port on the Xbox One S, wish they would patch it up. 👍👍👍
Wired headphones can't really be beat. Even audiophile headphones still worth at wired. You only go wireless if you...don't want wired. It's not like mice, where the sensor is improved to actually remove the cons of wireless mice. Headphones are quite hard to get around.
Can you play some music with the headset when testing the mic to see if the sound leaks to the mic? I have this problem with the original cloud stinger and it seems to be a common issue.

They must've updated something in the stinger wireless cause I'm using it now, wife bought it for me for my birthday, and it doesn't sound muddy or anything, infact I heard the audio difference quite clearly when you did the comparison

I have flights and stinger wireless and I have definitely chosen the stinger's lately over the flight. I love the sound of the stingers and believe they improved the sound when compared to the wired stingers.
