Rated 5 out of 5 by Xavier F from Good battery life, EQ, and software. Sound is amazing compared to the Alpha 1s, EQ is good on arrival haven't had to touch it. Along with the Ngenuity Beta it means that these had easy to install drivers since day 1 with no problems. The bluetooth + 2.4ghz work flawlessly. They originally seemed pretty expensive but otherwise are worth the value.

Rated 5 out of 5 by alexw186_2559 from Great sound, super comfortable, quick setup, and n I’ve had the HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 for about 2 weeks now and it’s been great. Setup was really easy, everything connected right away without any issues. The sound quality is excellent, clear highs and strong bass that make games and music more enjoyable. They’re also very comfortable, even after hours of use. Being wireless is a huge plus since I don’t have to worry about cords getting in the way. Overall, I’m really happy with this headset and would definitely recommend it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by sallyy12_3723 from Perfect headset for all gamers 🕹️ The HyperX cloud Alpha 2 wireless headset with mixer is super comfortable, with soft ear cushions perfect for long sessions. The sound is clear with great bass, and the mic picks up my voice really well. I love the mixer — easy volume and mute controls right at my fingertips. Works perfectly on PC, PS5, and even on my phone. Great quality and totally worth it. The quality is amazing and I would recommend it to every person that are gaming or even works from home. I’m very impressed ☺️ The battery life is up to 250 hours and that’s amazing 🤩

Rated 5 out of 5 by rosannac9_1881 from Great new headset! High quality material and super comfortable to wear. The distance from the headset to the base is better than other headsets without minimal drop in audio quality. Love that it’s highly customizable due to their ngenuity software.
