Conclusion

Overall, the HyperX Cloud II is a good, solid product. The build quality and the materials used are excellent and we did not expect anything less from Kingston. Other than the fact that we are looking at a classic design, the headset features a very good bundle. The soft cushions as well as the headband fit nicely and you will not experience any pressure points even with glasses or 3D goggles. The perception of audio is certainly a matter of subjectivity but, in our opinion, the sound is well balanced. We can say that the HyperX Cloud II offers good sound quality, without over-pronounced bass. The earpads that surround the 53 millimeter drivers are comfortable and the bundle also includes two additional non-leather earpads for longer gaming sessions.

The detachable microphone is made of flexible plastic and with memory effect. The overall quality is good and the sound captured is clean and natural.

According to Kingston, the price of the HyperX Cloud II should be around 99 Euro and we believe that the HyperX Cloud II headset definitely offers very good value for money. Not only the musical presentation and the sound stage are good, but also the build quality is perfect. In addition, it also features a solid, sturdy and rather classic design. Last but not least, you get a huge bundle with cables, earpads and even a handle bag. The Kingston HyperX Cloud II gaming headset gets good 5 out of 5 stars.
