    The HyperX Cloud Core Wired Gaming Headset is hands-down one of the best investments for anyone looking to elevate their gaming experience without breaking the bank. I've used numerous headsets over the years, but the HyperX Cloud Core really stands out in terms of quality, performance, and durability—all for an extremely competitive price. Sound Quality and Immersive Experience The audio quality on this headset is exceptional. With 53mm drivers, it delivers crisp highs, deep lows, and a balanced sound profile that's perfect for gaming. You can hear every detail, from the faintest footsteps to powerful explosions, making it easy to stay fully immersed in your game. For competitive gamers, this is crucial, as sound cues can often mean the difference between victory and defeat. Comfort and Build The Cloud Core is built for long gaming sessions, and it shows. The memory foam ear cushions and adjustable headband ensure a snug but comfortable fit, even after hours of wear. HyperX’s signature design offers solid build quality with durable materials that feel premium but not overly heavy on the head. I've been using mine for months now, and it still feels just as sturdy as the day I got it. Noise-Canceling Microphone The detachable noise-canceling microphone is another highlight. It provides clear communication, essential for team-based games, without picking up a lot of background noise. Plus, the fact that it’s detachable makes it versatile for using the headset in other settings, like listening to music or watching movies. Value for Money For a headset of this caliber, the price point is incredibly reasonable. You’re getting sound quality, durability, and comfort that can easily rival more expensive models. It's rare to find a headset that nails every aspect at this price, making the HyperX Cloud Core a top pick for budget-conscious gamers who don’t want to sacrifice performance. Final Verdict If you’re looking for a reliable, high-performance gaming headset that doesn’t break the bank, the HyperX Cloud Core Wired Gaming Headset is hard to beat. With its premium build, impressive sound quality, and unbeatable comfort, this headset is a perfect choice for both casual and serious gamers alike. Highly recommended!

    Excellent quality headphones, the microphone is very good, the sound for video games is also good, the passive cancellation is excellent, the pressure they exert is somewhat strong, speaking of 7.1 if it is different in some things, the sounds of bullets are more noticeable In terms of music, if you listen to an orchestra, you hear the instruments and their position more clearly. I loved that.

    The surround sound sounds amazing love the design and the long cord is amazing. The only con is that they didn’t put the headset box inside of another box and the box is now scratched up and ripped at the top but the packaging on the inside was really nice.

    Can't use soundcard's jacks; small recorded audio

    I'm disappointed that the headset cannot be plugged into my SoundBlaster X-Fi's soundcard's dedicated audio jacks (headset & mic jacks inputs). Secondly, the recorded voice audio is small and tiny compared to my cheap Plantronics .Audio 655's. Those pickup background noise, but the recorded voice audio is clear and big. While the HyperX Cloud Core 7.1 does suppress background audio, the audio recorded from the mic is small and tiny, like a radio. Likewise, the actual sound is not impressive at all. There is no bass when I played bass heavy music. It sounded hollow. I would not recommend these for audio recording or even gaming. Have to return them and find headsets that I can plug into my soundcard and can record clear audio. Peace.

    Great sound, good comfort. Be sure to look out for sale as it is totally worth it for $30. One star less as the wire could have been longer. It is just about right but sometimes can fall short. No issues with the product otherwise.

    Got these for my son. I think it's his 3rd or 4th pair of Hyper X over the years. The electronics last, but the ear cups and head band do eventually wear out over the years and sometimes break altogether. I wouldn't expect each set to last forever, but he uses them a lot and gets several years out of them. I usually find these on (a good) sale, so replacing them periodically isn't hard on the wallet. He says they sound great and are very comfortable. Refuses to try any other brand. That should say something.

    The HyperX Cloud Core is awesome! A really solid headset at an exceptional price on sale for $29.99 plus protection plan and tax! I can have game chat and Xbox Party chat at the same time. I can hear everyone. Everyone else can hear me clearly. I love the HyperX Cloud product line! I own multiple HyperX Cloud headsets like HyperX CloudX for Xbox and HyperX Cloud PS4/PS5. HyperX Cloud Core is an outstanding headset. Definitely recommend it!
