The HyperX Cloud Stinger is a lightweight headset for gamers, at 275 grams, it’s super comfortable on your head and neck for long periods of time. Each ear cups rotates in a 90-degree angle for a precise fit and use HyperX signature memory foam padding that helps reduce external noise and increases comfort.
The Stingers 50mm directional drivers position sound directly into the ear for gaming-grade sound quality, there is an intuitive volume control on headset ear cup, the microphone has a cool swivel-to-mute noise-cancellation and is multi-platform compatible. The Stinger has the look and feel of a much more expensive headset although the ear cups have a light plastic feel which makes me think they wouldn’t withstand being thrown about too much so try to bare that in mind before hurling them onto the desk after losing too many times.
The sound quality is equally surprising for a budget range headset, with clear and punchy tones you will feel completely immersed in your gaming experience. The microphone has its good and bad points, as a microphone it performs reasonably well and the noise swivel to mute feature is a nice touch, for voice recordings it provides good vocals without too much background interference however, the recordings do have a little distortion. It will easily fit even the largest of heads with its adjustable steel sliders, the cable maybe a little on the short side for some gamers at 1.3m but it comes with a flimsy 1.7m extension Y cable.
These headphones aren’t perfect but for the price range they are good value for money, they are so comfortable, they don’t get too hot or cause fatigue even after racking up some serious gaming hours. RRP £49.99
