HyperX Cloud 3 Review / A WORTHY UPGRADE?

I just bought them in czech retail store for 80 Euro - I think that they maybe wrongly priced them because other store have them for at least 118 Euro. Hope they will be as good as OG Kingston Cloud 2 but I keep my hopes low since I already tried Cloud 2 Wireless before and it was dogshit, high white noise and sound quality was not exactly good....kinda sad that HP ruin this brand.

Yes, the cloud ii sound is exciting 😀 it was the first thing I noticed first time I used it. I guess it is always a matter of preference, I'm sure audiophiles will prefer the sound of cloud iii. In your test the micro from the cloud iii sounded very good to me.

[@RabbitConfirmed]

From my experience, "Audiophiles" have no idea what good sound is. I've bought a pair of "Focal Elegia" because many people in the "audiophile subreddit" recommended them to me. They were the weirdest, most shitty sounding headphone I've ever used. I would rather use a 50$ no name headset. And be aware the headphone originally costed 800$ and I bought it for 400$. So yep, idk whatever those "Audiophiles" are smoking. After that experience, I only trust "Audio nerds" like Techne. He actually knows what he is talking about compared to all the "audiophiles".

Could it be that your Cloud 2 pair is so used that the drivers are more burned in, making them sound ever so slightly more exciting? I mean, those Cloud 3s are straight from the factory, so the drivers haven't really been used much. Usually, it doesn't matter, but on some pairs, it can matter.

I’ve been using the HyperX Cloud Flight wireless for a long time and I’m surprised hyperx hasn’t done the swivel on their higher end models. The only issue I’ve had with the flights is the ear pads, but that’s expected to wear out.

[@ColdCassidy]

well to mention also the Cloud 2 that are displayed seem to be the "OLD" versions of the headset which are an easy S+ tier compared to the new ones, you can notice it by looking at the outside of the earcup where the "OLD" ones have that ruberry matt coating and that aluminium plate in the middle where the "NEW" Cloud 2's have a basic plastic earcups with the plastic plate in the middle. P.s the Cloud 2's have been severily downgraded after HyperX sold out to HP , their new headset has very bad and overly bassy sound , their earcups and the headband cussions are also downgraded so if you are interested in getting the Cloud 2' i would suggest you to consider the Alpha's or the Cloud 3's.

This headset feels so good around the ears, especially for people with big ears like me. Feels very light and sound is great.

But besides that this is a 9/10 headset at it's price point.

The Cloud 2 offers excellent perception and location of footsteps and makes the sound so clear! The cloud 3 literally sounds like it's coming out of a tin can when you shoot and it's way too loud, at the same time the ambient noise is way too quiet and the location and spatial perception of footsteps etc. is terribly bad!!!

Small heads up to people who produce music/do anything where you need precise and accurate audio in the headset: I own cloud 2 and just purchased cloud 3, if you want clear and precise audio, cloud 3s are what you need. cloud 2 sound better, but the audio is 'altered', meaning you won't get a true read on your audio if you produce music. i just swapped between the 2 several times, granted i just got them today (had wireless for a day, returned them and got wired cloud 3s), but the sound is definitely more accurate. TL;DR : Cloud 2 sounds more satisfying, but Cloud 3 is more accurate (could be relevant for things like fps games where you wanna hear where the enemies are).

thank you for your detailed review. after watching 4 videos covering the same items yours pushed me to purchase ❤

[@TheTechne]

awesome! so glad I was able to help out

[@jerriies]

​@@TheTechne what killed it for me was the sound difference..and not in a good way! i had the first hyper X cloud series for almost 3 years until my cat chewed through the threaded cord lol I just felt cloud 3 isn't awesome enough for the extra $20/30 (on sale) what also worried me was that the headband isn't threaded like the other two...and I really want these to last long. definitely hit that sub button 🖤

So what your saying is the cloud 3 is more accurate sound wise so it's more for audiophiles and the cloud 2 is more for like boomy bassy type because I've had the cloud 2 n they actually have a lot of bass!

[@jacobbarfield7828]

Eh I don’t agree with automatically recommending the Cloud 2 to everyone over the Cloud 3 in both situations just because you personally don’t care for the C3’s sound-signature. Should’ve said something like “if you prefer neutral tuning then go for the C3, and if you prefer a relatively more V-shape tuning then go for the C2”, especially since apparently both the comfort and mic are better on the C3 and resolution being equal on both. Also the C2 isn’t 100% compatible on Xbox so between the two Xbox users should go for the C3.

Which headset would you recommend for a game like rainbow six siege where hearing footsteps is very important?

[@Quiinxx]

Wondering the same thing

[@jaredzaragoza1192]

Flatter sound and a better mic than the cloud II? This is an improvement for me (as a valorant, csgo and ow2 player).

[@BiOHZRD97]

Did you buy it?

[@Cchsmei4769]

You did a best wireless video can you do a best weird video soon? Thanks

[@TheTechne]

Yes

[@um_never]

Hey so I’ve been with the astros a10’s all my gaming career and I’m trying to find something new that sounds just like the a10s because that’s what I honestly like but I’m looking for a better mic anyone have any suggestions?

[@landerino7924]

Hi, how is the mic monitoring of the cloud iii?

[@RabbitConfirmed]

You are the only real one out there Techne! So many people claim the HXC3 is better, but you're the only one telling the truth! You're the OG!

[@dmd2706]

You know every person has different preferences right? Sometimes techne recomendation can be a bit off. You should try it yourself

[@RabbitConfirmed]

@@dmd2706 try thinking first, kek

[@fleabaglane]

Many feel cloud 2 sound is better for gaming

[@JabroniKabron]

Is the detachable mic easily detaches when you move it? I got this issue with blackshark headset of Razer.

[@csyalx]

got mine for $24.99 at game exchange, the store employee didn't know what it was lol

[@beamernz1]

As soon as he started talking about cloud 2s highs being better i switched off. The cloud 2s highs were absolutely terrible.
