1. HyperX Cloud Orbit

If you have a huge budget and you’re looking for a high-end studio-grade headset, you might want to check out the HyperX Cloud Orbit. While it does come in with a pricetag of over ~$300, the Cloud Orbit headset will deliver the ultimate sound experience.

The Cloud Orbit features 100mm planar magnetic drivers, fully immersive 3D audio, a detachable noise cancellation microphone (with a pop filter), and multiple connection options (USB Type A, USB Type C, and 3.5mm jack.)

• Wired Headset
• 100mm Drivers
• Weighs 368 Grams
• Detachable Mic

Like most of HyperX’s headsets, the Cloud Orbit is compatible with PC, XBOX, PS4 (and PS5), Nintendo Switch, Macs, and mobile devices.

Ultimately, if you’re looking for a set of gaming headphones that will take your in-game audio experience to the ultimate level, the HyperX Cloud Orbit is the option you’re looking for. If you don’t want to spend over $300 on a headset, though, check out the more affordable options listed below.

2. HyperX Cloud Alpha S

While the HyperX Cloud Alpha S won’t quite offer the high-end audio experience that the Cloud Orbit headset listed above will, it will also cost you considerably less. At just a little over ~$120, the HyperX Cloud Alpha S come in at over ~$200 less expensive than the Cloud Orbits.

And, while the Cloud Alphas don’t feature as impressive of drivers, the dual chamber 50mm drivers that they do come with will be solid enough for the majority of gamers.

• Wired Headset
• 50mm Drivers
• Weighs 321 Grams
• Detachable Mic

The Cloud Alphas are a wired headset that weigh in at 321 grams, come with a detachable microphone, and feature 7.1 surround sound. This headset will work with PC and PS4 (and, likely, PS5 as well.)

In the end, if you want a high-end wired gaming headset and you don’t want to spend over $300 on an extreme pair of headphones, the HyperX Cloud Alphas are a nice option to consider.

3. HyperX Cloud Core

An even more affordable option than the HyperX Cloud Alpha is the HyperX Cloud Core. The Cloud Core headset sports 53mm magnetic drivers, comes with 7.1 virtual surround sound, comes with a USB audio control box, and has a detachable noise cancelling microphone.

The best part about the Cloud Core headset, though, is the fact that they can be purchased for just under ~$100.

• Wired Headset
• 53mm Drivers
• Weighs 350 Grams
• Detachable Mic

HyperX’s Cloud Core headset is also compatible with just about any platform and device, including PC, Xbox, PS4, PS5, Mac, and mobile devices.

So, if you’re looking for a moderately-priced set of headphones that will offer an upgraded in-game audio experience, the HyperX Cloud Cores are worth checking out.

4. HyperX Cloud Flight S

For those of you gamers who are looking for a quality wireless headset, HyperX’s Cloud Flights are your best bet. At a little over ~$150, they are the second most expensive pair of gaming headphones that HyperX currently offers. However, wireless headset technology typically results in a premium and so the extra cost is to be expected.

The HyperX Cloud Flight headset features 50mm drivers, weighs in at 320 grams, comes with a detachable noise cancelling microphone, and is compatible with PC, PlayStation, and XBox One (you’ll need the CloudX Flights for XBox One compatibility.)

• Wireless Headset
• 50mm Drivers
• Weighs 320 Grams
• Detachable Mic

The wireless headset has a battery life of up to 30 hours and the wireless range on the headphones can reach to up to 20 meters away from the system. The ‘S’ edition of this headset also features wireless charging and 7.1 surround sound.

In the end, if you want a HyperX headset and you need it to be wireless, the HyperX Cloud Flights are your best bet.

5. HyperX Cloud Stinger

If you don’t have a huge budget and you are just looking for an affordable gaming headset that will enhance your in-game audio experience, HyperX’s Cloud Stinger headphones are worth considering.

At just under ~$50 they are one of HyperX’s most affordable gaming headsets. They come with 40mm drivers, a lightweight design (they only weigh 275 grams), and are compatible with PC, XBox One, and PlayStation.

• Wired Headset
• 40mm Drivers
• Weighs 275 Grams
• Swivel-to-Mute

And, while the noise cancelling microphone cannot be detached, it can be swiveled upwards to be muted and moved out of the way.

The bottom line, though, is that if you don’t have hundreds of dollars to spend on a new gaming headset, HyperX’s Cloud Stinger lineup is a solid option.

CONCLUSION

While HyperX has a lot of different gaming headset options, the reality is that the best option for you will depend on your budget and needs. If you have an unlimited budget and you’re looking for a gaming headset that will deliver studio-grade audio, then the HyperX Cloud Orbits are your best bet.

On the other hand, if you’re looking for a cheap gaming headset that will give you a solid in-game audio experience, you can get by with one of the options in their Cloud Stinger lineup.

They also have wireless headset options and a bunch of options priced between the Cloud Orbits and the Cloud Stingers.
