hyperx cloud ii review

[Choaks]

my old headset snapped. is the cloud ii still the gold standard for under $100 or is there something better now?

nah cloud ii is still good but i'd look at the cooler master mh751/752 now. it's basically a rebadged takstar pro 82 and the comfort is insane. mic is better too imo. usually right around the $100 mark.

Cloud II is still solid, but it’s not really the “undisputed king” anymore. Under $100, the HyperX Cloud III is usually the better pick now (clearer mic + slightly improved tuning), and the Razer BlackShark V2 X is also a strong option if you want better sound positioning for games. I personally wouldn’t buy Cloud II new unless it’s heavily discounted. There are just more refined headsets in the same price range today.

The HyperX Cloud II is a popular gaming headset known for its comfort, solid sound quality, and durable build. It offers clear audio and a good microphone, making it great for gaming, though its virtual surround sound is average and it’s only available in a wired versio

HyperX Cloud II offers excellent comfort with memory foam, clear audio via 53mm drivers, and virtual 7.1 surround sound. Build quality is durable with an aluminum frame. Mic is clear and detachable. Downsides include average bass and basic surround effect. Overall, great value gaming headset.
