Kingston HyperX Cloud Core Gaming Headset Review - FunkyKit

 

Its not often that the words ‘budget' and ‘quality' go side by side, and when it comes to audio equipment, its rare that any piece of equipment ticks both categories. Kingston's HyperX Cloud Core gaming headset looks to fill this void, and today we'll...

Kingston HyperX Cloud Core Review: Excellent headset for gamers and music aficionados on a budget

 

We weren't particularly keen at first noting our lustreless experience with the previous Cloud Drone headset. However, the Cloud Core headset is higher up in the ladder and looks a lot more interesting.

This headset is a solid recommend. For a street price of Rs 3,600, you cannot get a better one at all. The entire Kingston’s HyperX Cloud line other than the 40mm Drone headset has the same awesome sound quality though with varying prices due to...

HyperX Cloud Core 7.1 review

 

The HyperX Cloud Core 7.1 provides robust and easy-to-use surround sound, but game performance is inconsistent, and the USB amp is cumbersome.

Good sound overall ; Comfortable design ; Easy to use

So-so console performance ; Inconsistent mic ; Cumbersome USB controls

If you can spare $100 on a wired USB model, the Blackshark V2 is the way to go — but if you can't, the Cloud Core 7.1 is a good headset, whether you need it for classes, or games, or both.

Hyper X Cloud Core

 

Great gaming headphones for someone on a budget

Good and comfortable design ; Good sound output ; Short cable is a blessing in some cases

Not ideal for prolonged use ; Microphone flap can easily be misplaced

The Hyper X Cloud Core is a great pair of headphones for gamers on a budget. It has a simple design and a removable microphone which I like. Despite being comfortable, the headphones can cause ear fatigue with prolonged use. When it comes to...
