HyperX HX-HSCFX-BK/WW CloudX Flight for Xbox - Wireless Gaming Headset, Compatible with Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S , black

I bought this because my Turtle Beach 420X+ started to give up after almost 3 years.I wasn't expecting anything exciting, however those are just exceeding all expectations.The build is plastic, however it feels super premium, not like the Turtle Beach cheap plastic builds.Ear cushions are super comfortable with memory foam, HyperX style.Headset is super light and you will forget that you are wearing it, there is no stress on the head or on the ears, also it will fit even if you have bigger head.The sound is purely amazing, the mic is crystal clear, the noise cancellation is top notch. They sound even better with Dolby Atmos.The wireless range those things have ... there isn't room in my apartment i can go to loose reception.Compatibility ... literally plug and play on both Xbox and PC, the only difference is that you cannot adjust chat/game volume on PC.Battery life lasts insane amount of time.What can i say, those are totally worth purchasing, they are probably the best wireless headset money can buy on Xbox at the moment.

Bought a set of Arctis 9X but found them annoying (kept catching the volume / chat mixer dials), bought the HyperX and “WOW” brilliant audio can hear footsteps in every direction which gives me a bit of an edge, lightweight, comfortable with easy touch chat mixer and volume adjustment 100% genuinely pleased.

As with most hyperX products, quality is astounding. This headset ticks almost every single box for me if you are an xbox gamer.For starters... The comfort of this thing is really really good. It weighs more than the cloud II but they are still light and have nice soft earcups which just rest really easily on your ears. Nothing hurts and the overall feel of the product is very premium.Sound quality is again a step up from most if not all headsets i have used. I can hear everything so clearly when playing games such as call of duty, or rainbow six siege that i feel like i genuinely have the competitive advantage. Being able to hear an enemy pushing round doorways in siege from around the corner, so I know when to peak has really improved how I play. Some headsets i have tried in the past, the sound sort of meshes together, where as this really does make you immersed and really hear those footsteps.Interms of intergration, the headset has a built in mute button along the left earcup, along with two buttons to change up game/chat volume. There are also a volume dial which you can rotate to make things louder or quieter. When muted the mic emits a small light which was a nice touch, and also, hitting the on button can make the headsets "HyperX" Logos on the sides light up. Or "breath" and make the lights flash. nice touch. The headset also makes small tones depending on what you do wether that be turning the volume down or up, or if its on low battery.The reason this headset does not get a 5 star is because of the connectivity. This headset connects to a dongle which is plugged into the console via USB. it does not have any bluetooth ability and if you plug the dongle into anything else, it wont connect. There are better headsets out there which connect to mulitple devices at the same time. If hyperX make a headset which is wireless, without the dongle and has bluetooth capabilities it will surely be the best headset on the market.Overall it is still a fantastic product and i still recommend it

The headset is good but overall as I play allot of apex the headset seems to pick up more sound from me and guns then it does footsteps I hardly can hear anyone coming whereas my turtle beach headset from the car boot that cost me £2 can pick up all of this if your into shooting games where enemy footsteps are vital don't buy this headset

I bought these during Lockdown when gaming gear was in short supply and I’m glad I did! Sound quality is great and they are comfortable too. If you haven’t used the Xbox for a while the dongle can time out, meaning you need to unplug it and plug it back in again. It’s not a big deal and it has never happened during a gaming session. My only (slight) criticism is that the mic monitoring is quite loud, which makes you think you are speaking louder than you actually are. I resolved this by dropping my game volume down in stream settings and now the balance is fine. I also had to change the game/chat volume balance on Xbox so I could hear others players better over the game sounds.

Looking at other HyperX headsets this sits firmly at the top the quality of the material is very similar to its sibling headsets but fits better on ones head it feels tighter and more secure. The mic monitoring feature has to be one of the strongest i have used and almost feels like you can hear through the headset but this can be turned off and i love that about this. For the wireless capability i would personally prefer a wired version of this exact headset but for what it brings to the table this is merely an add on as there is no lag whatsoever in my many tests. My only flaw is that the mic volume cannot be changed in any way either through the xbox or on the headset itself but it is what it is.but i do have to say i like the fact you dont need to use any Xbox settings to adjust anything its all there on the headset. And to finish off and what I believe to be the cherry on the cake is the red led to advise the user the mic is muted. All in all this is an extremely good headset and one of HyperX’s best

Pro's: very light to wear and a good snug fit. No movement when turning head from side to side. Very comfortable headset. Good layout for control buttons. Easy set up to link to console or PC.Con's: Not good for console gaming, there is no base at all, very tinny in sound quality. Their is no hyperX app to update the headset nor to adjust the equaliser.Son tried them on laptop adjusted the base control in pc game which did help slightly, but these were bought to use on xbox.Overall, thumbs up for comfort, thumbs down for sound. Not worth £125. turtle beach stelth 600 all the way for £80.
