A gift is infinitely better than a promise, and unlike some headsets that manufacturers promise will do it all, the HyperX Cloud Wireless (fave.co/3SLwJbU) actually delivers, staying on point for audio quality, style and comfort. It's also one of the most compact gaming headsets (fave.co/3pin6Eh), removing the hassle of trying to wrangle it into a full satchel or backpack.
By focusing on things that matter most to gamers without worrying about dedicated software support, "no-fuss gaming audio" could be the headset's motto. Admittedly, that may not suit EQ tinkerers who want to fine-tune everything. But for those who want a wireless option with quick connectivity and excellent spatial audio, the HyperX Cloud Core Wireless is exactly that.
DESIGN AND BUILD
It's usually a good sign when new headsets appear like favorites we know and love. The HyperX Cloud Core Wireless is a case in point, looking almost exactly like the HyperX Cloud II Wireless headset, except for the latter's flashy red earcup holders and striated black and red headband.
Comparing both devices, I much prefer the Cloud Core's mostly black exterior styling, the only coloring being its red HyperX logos on each earcups, since it sports a cleaner, tidier look. Besides that, the more muted styling allows the Cloud Core Wireless to seamlessly double as a headphone once the detachable boom mic is pulled off, so it's a little more versatile.
Bulky headsets are cumbersome and often cause pain and discomfort for gamers, but there's no unnecessary cargo weighing down the HyperX Cloud Core or putting undue pressure on your head or ears. Picking it up, it's immediately apparent that it's a lightweight in the category - the whole unit weighing just 10.4 ounces which is a fait accompli of its lightweight aluminum frame.
