HyperXCloud Stinger Core – Wireless Lightweight Gaming Headset, DTS Headphone:X spatial audio, Noise Cancelling Microphone, For PC, Black

These surprisingly sound great. I don't play multiplayer games anymore, so the mic isn't something i care about. My beats audio earbuds finally stopped working, & i can't afford to make a huge investment in audio equipment currently. I did lots of research, & ended up trying these, since the cost/quality ratio was among the best of the lower tier audio options.I wanted ear buds, but was skeptical of the bass on any of the less expensive options, so i decided to go with an over the ear option. My last over the ear headset was a Sony Gold headset, & although originally they were great, they tore up relatively fast. The black protein covering that touches your ear started peeling off gradually, then 1 of the ears started losing sound, & i just had a bad overall experience when compared with in ear earbuds. The latter noise cancel MUCH better, & lasted way longer (6 years vs 1.5 years, or so). The only reason the earbuds don't work anymore is because of the cord. The earbuds themselves are still great, but i didn't have the time or patience to try & fix that myself.The fact these have a cord is a negative, because that's usually what will break before anything else in something like this, even though i try to be extremely careful with how it bends. I don't game nearly as much as i did when i had the Sony golds, so i hope that plays a factor in how long these last before the protein material starts peeling off, etc. i also will clean them off after each use, in case oils from my face, or maybe sweat sometimes, is what eventually destroyed my only other over ear headphones.Sony Gold are my only point of comparison in over ear headphones, but these sound just as good as those did in 2018 or so, from my memory. Sadly, those were only for PlayStation, & these will work on all of my consoles, which is a huge advantage over those. These also come with 2 years of DTS headphones X license, which makes a game like Cyberpunk 2077 sound MUCH better than even the free windows sonic option.I am definitely satisfied with the sound quality of these. They fit my smallish head well. The bass, mids & highs are all pretty good (not audiophile quality, which anyone looking at these already knows, since nothing sub $150 would be expected to have that type of quality), so for gaming audio, especially 3D spatial sound, these are great. The noise cancelling is decent, but not great, so if you play somewhere that's noisy, I'd probably get earbuds of some sort, or a more expensive option.I also should mention that I got these in a Black Friday sale, so that also plays into my calculations as far as price to quality ratio. I didn't compare retail prices to others of the same retail price, & only compared to others in the same ballpark (sub $50, like cloud x, stinger 2, steel series [arctis prime & less expensive ], lucid sound ls35x, Logitech G432, turtle beach, & the cheapest unknown Chinese named brands that will populate the "recommended" options when you look at any headphones on Amazon), because these were all on sale for a similar price, but i didn't pay attention to the MSRP.For the price, I'm definitely satisfied, but the only thing I'm unsure about is how long they will hold up with moderate use (4-5 hours a day, max). If they last 2+ years, i will be surprised & impressed. I will try to remember to update my review when they start having problems in that regard, or when it's time to search for new ones. Until then, I'm happy with my purchase & definitely recommend for gaming audio.I do wish there was an option to remove the mic, because to mute it you have to move it up, parallel with the part that goes over the head. I don't use it at all, & I always have it up. In this position it will fall down a little with any head movement. My peripheral vision can see the mic in this case, which bothers me occasionally (because in the original position, before it falls, i can't see the mic at all). I wish i could just remove the mic, but i realize I'm in the vast super-minority, so i can't really blame against designer for not adding a removal option since it's the least expensive option they made. I can blame them for it not staying in position, & falling down some, but it's something i will get used to, I'm sure, & is just a pet peeve. Others probably wouldn't even notice something like this, because it's not a huge distance that it falls, maybe 1 to 2 inches or so.

Este es el mejor par de auriculares Bluetooth que he comprado. Después de tantos años de uso, siguen funcionando como nuevos, manteniendo una excelente calidad de sonido. Si eres fan de los juegos tipo shooter como Valorant, CS o Battlefield, estos auriculares son perfectos, ya que puedes escuchar claramente de dónde vienen los pasos, lo cual marca una gran diferencia al jugar.El micrófono también es muy bueno. Si bien para grabaciones profesionales es mejor contar con un micrófono dedicado, para jugar con amigos o participar en chats de voz es más que suficiente.Después de años de uso, el único desgaste que he notado es en la almohadilla izquierda, que se despegó, pero aún así puedo volver a colocarla sin problemas. Esto solo demuestra la durabilidad del producto.En definitiva, los recomiendo totalmente, especialmente si disfrutas de juegos tipo shooter o ver películas con excelente calidad de sonido. Además, considerando el precio, la relación calidad-precio es increíble.

I bought this for gaming on my Nintendo Switch (and soon to be Nintendo Switch 2) and for my current setup this headset works great! The sound quality is good, and I think it has some level of noise cancelling to it, but not completely. I like that I can just put in the USB dongle and then I can turn the headset on and it seamlessly connects! My only issue (that I haven't figured out yet) is that when I have the headset plugged in to my switch with the USB dongle, it seems to make my switch screen just freeze. This only happens after about 5-10 seconds. To temporarily fix the issue, I have to undock and then redock my switch but then it just comes back. I haven't figured out this issue yet, so whoever is reading this, just know that I probably will figure it out in the future. Other than this, I give the headset 4 stars! Thank you HyperX!
