HyperX Cloud III Wireless Headset Review - I'm shocked...

[@shimshon9271]

Had to leave at around 20 mins in to make it to the store, listening to the rest with the headset, thanks!

[@Juice_VI]

They fixed a lot on this vs the wired version. The mic sounds better, side tone actually works, EQ works and the mic mute button doesn’t make a loud pop when you click it. I returned the wired version because of these issues so I think I’ll give the wireless version a shot.

[@Novskyy621]

Don't forget the way better neutral sound profile

Do they work on Xbox x?

[@troy028]

​@@iParacorddon't think so.

[@clawson32104]

Bought these for the PS5 for $129 and they are great. They are so comfortable and need no tuning right out of the box.

[@Danzavier]

I have both and the Wired is better for competitive fps like siege and Valorant, I can hear footstep and minor details better than wireless. Wireless is better all around because it has a little more bass. But for competitive edge fps I’d go wired. Gonna keep them both.

[@Simon_Hawkshaw]

What an incredible review. Your use of the tuning data is spot on. Not too geeky to lose us, but in-depth enough to keep us focused and interested. Well done, Sir. Your inclusion of gaming experience is also very helpful. Thank you as always for your time and hard work compiling the data repository for reference. Take care and all the best.

[@dieushade]

For the mic, put the default format to 32000 Hz in the Microphone Properties > Advanced tab (In Windows Control Panel, under System > Sound). Default 16000 hz and sounds more like a recording, 32k is more like talk radio, it's super clean. What an amazing mic and heaset all around. I tested some DTS tests on youtube, you really feel like it's comming from everywhere... thanks to that driver tilt!

i see on my settings 48k is it better then 32k? its the highest on the list.

[@markus9641]

Something I noticed with the Cloud 3 Wireless, is the mic doesn't pick up any sound leakage from the headset. I've had this problem with the Cloud Alphas and Cloud 2 (wired) and it's been quite annoying as someone who speaks in voice chat a lot and has relatively high volume on. The Cloud 3's from my testing, doesn't pick up any sound, even like super loud music doesn't get through to the mic. Super impressed so far with that alone.

[@kentjuthe2916]

My stealth just broke on me after 11 months.. so now im looking for a new headset again and this will be it, ty again :)

[@FaelonZ]

comparing these to the cloud alpha that cut in the 8k and 12k are so apparent. I found myself boosting the higher and lower frequencies for these quite a lot. Maybe I'm just used to that V curve in things idk, but without it I would completely not even hear certain things in songs, higher frequency intricacies in songs etc

[@7orque]

For the loose adjustment mechanism, I noticed the sliders had a large amount of oil on them out of the box. Wiping the oil off makes them the sliding adjustment much more solid.

[@vsChris]

Lately i've been struggling with deciding between these, the Arctis Nova 7s and the Blackshark V2 Pros as a replacement for my GPX Wireless headset. The GPX literally started to hurt the top of my head if I wear it for more than 2 hours so it unfortunately has to go. I just need to make a decision on which to get - they all seem to be great headsets.

The sound was terrible for me and just sounded so weird, like when I played 7d2d I could hear the zombies a mile away, but couldn't tell if there were 5 feet from me or 2 houses down. Also the back round sounds tin the game were so loud, li,e a wall touch was blasting in me head and the main sounds were drown out. Same with sons of the forest, the water sound was sooo loud I had to move my base away from any water. The sound was just so weird and I returned them for wired h6pro closed back and they are much better sounding, but not wireless.

[@Drewsterman777]

@@Ryan-re1rs I agree. I've had the Arctis 7x and Nova 7x and both sounded terrible. The mid range sounded odd and the treble was odd sounding as well. The mic sucked. The earpads were too shallow for me even with aftermarket earpads. i've used a few audiophile grade headphones so I have an understanding of what good audio should sound like and the 7s do not perform well.

Returned my TB Atlas Air for the Cloud 3 and couldn't be happier. The Atlas were great except I couldn't live with the low volume on PS5. It was terrible both out of the box and after updating the firmware. The Cloud 3 are perfect. You mentioned sidetone and I'm wondering if that is something that needs adjusting in the software on PC. I'm not noticing it much out of the box.

[@HasimFN]

Is that the only reason? Because i heard the atlas was very good

[@chrisnewton2325]

I'm impressed you said this has the best sidetone, I've had all hyper X headsets and most of them have crap or no sidetone except the cloud flight X Xbox version that sidetone is incredible so I'm wrapped to here this one has it to

Incredible headset I love it. Added it to my collection. Got the Cloud 2, Cloud Alpha, Cloud 3 all in the wired and wireless variants.

[@granat7241]

I had the wired Cloud II headset and it was the best headset I've ever had, hopefully I'll be able to say the same thing about these. I've always been pretty skeptical about wireless headsets, but I'm gonna give this one a try. You've convinced me :D

[@bilgekaancetinkaya5717]

What is your thoughts about Cloud 3? You like em?

[@granat7241]

​@@bilgekaancetinkaya5717 Yeah, they are great. The battery life is out of this world, I only had to charge them like twice since I bought them and I play a lot of CS2. They are very comfy, so no headaches from too long gaming sessions. Range is very good, I had no problems walking around the house with them on. Just one note from me - they're great for gaming, but if you wanna listen to music on them, then you might be a bit disappointed. It's not like they're horrible for music, but still, I wouldn't recommend them for that. Oh, and the mic is really good, definitely the best I've had in a gaming headset. If you buy them - remember to install the software "NGENUITY" and update them, the sound feels much better afterwards.

[@nishino3592]

Thoughts now ?

[@granat7241]

​@@nishino3592 It's a great headset, the battery life is absolutely amazing. I'm past my skeptical phase about wireless headsets now. Microphone is much better than in the wired Cloud II's, which was the main issue that I had with them. Sound is different, requires a bit of time to get used to, but I'd say that it's on the same or very similar level. They are also very comfy, but heavier than wired II's. During longer sessions (like 4-5h) with the headset and glasses on, it can hurt a bit, not too bad though. Overall, I really recommend it, best headset I've had.

[@Amp_Edition]

for people saying this has no bass or not enough boost the 32hz to 7 and 64hz to 5, if you go much more than this with the 64hz it will distort...after these changes they have wayyyyyyy more bass! I did this with the bass preset and altered it

I'm a huge fan of HyperX. I just wished they showed more love to Xbox as far as wireless goes. It's been almost 3 years, if I'm not mistaken, since their last Xbox wireless headset.

Then i went to Beyerdynamics Costume Game which i have to this day for years. Its superb, but its slowly falling apart. I need a new one and man youre selling me Hyper X again. Combined with my desire to go wireless again after a long time, and the nostalgia i have for hyper x... i cant resist.

[@palfotta]

I have looked for a simple (I am a PC user and I dont need most the "extra" features, just good sound, mic, comfort and 2,4 ghz wireless) and good wireless headset for weeks... I find out all of them has some sickness (white noise, very bad microphone, connection problems, bad battery, only good sound for competitive gaming, very heavy clamping force/weight etc.) so I ordered my wired (H6 pro) headset at friday.

This headset feels so good around the ears, especially for people with big ears like me. Feels very light and sound is great. The only things I do not like about this headset is it takes 5-10 seconds of holding the power button to turn it on and off, and once it is on there is no LED indicator to let you know it is on.

I upgraded from Cloud 2 wireless to Cloud 3 wireless, mainly because of the significantly longer battery life. The new headset arrived today and I'm shocked at the poor sound compared to the previous model. The sound feels so thin and weak, there is absolutely no bass. I tried a bit with the HyperX software and also installed DTS Sound Unbound. The HyperX software does absolutely nothing, with DTS Sound Unbound it is a little better, but still no comparison to the previous model. Headset is back in the box and will be sent back. I can't understand how the sound is perceived as good by the majority

[@RubenStolp]

Man your content is really good. Keep it up. The graphs, measuring with different pads, the eq's for games, real value videos. It just amazes me how much of a surprise every unboxing and testing still is even though I at this point know well what frequency regions I dislike and what kind of curve is what my best sounding (to me) gear have. The freq response on the cloud iii wireless looked so damn good, and you mentioning the sidetone is great also got me really excited, exactly what I want from a headset. But upon getting them, putting them on and listening to music and gaming I was just immediately disappointed by the overall sound and timbre. Shouty, no air, bass okay, small soundstage, congested feeling. Fine ingame, but not worth the price imo. My Cloud Core Wireless sounds better to me. Will be returning these, it looks great on paper but reality came in hard. Keep doing what you're doing man, it is quality content.

I sent them back only because i needed a 3.5 jack when I use my audio interface. Kinda sad. With EQ's, they sounded great!

[@Smoothtiminal]

This or the blackshark v2 pro 2023? For sound and connection strength

[@GadgetryTech]

Both are solid. Blackshark has more bass and treble. So if you want really strong/punch bass with more sparkly highs, go with Razer. If you want something a little more neutral sounding (and sounds good for music), the HyperX is a better pick. Assuming you are okay with losing bluetooth on hyperX of course.

[@Smoothtiminal]

@@GadgetryTech yeah I don’t really use BT I mainly play competitive games

[@SleepTrgt]

​@@GadgetryTech what about using eq? Is the hyperx able to get the same bass and highs as blackshark? I am now using a xbox stereo headset (on pc) but its very muddy, so i have extreme eq trying to cut all the muddy bass and get a more defined sound, i cant decide to go with hyperx razer or stealth pro.

Question for anyone who owns these: I saw a review online saying that the mic will functionally disable itself after a period of not speaking, and that it seems to reactivate based on you speaking again, thus completely missing the first 2 or so seconds of what you say anytime you speak again for the first time. I had this exact problem (among a litany of others) with the Audeze Maxwell, and that made it completely unusable for me, or anyone who actually wants to use it as a headset. I need to use my headset for work as well as for gaming (same PC for both), so that problem is a complete and total dealbreaker for me. Can anyone confirm if they experience this issue as well? I am hoping that the guy who left that review just had a faulty pair, because otherwise these seem to check all the boxes for me. Thanks in advance!

Great review Just like always

[@GadgetryTech]

Thanks!

[@MaikaelsYT]

Thank you for your review, sir. This helped me a lot on making a decision to purchase the headset. Keep it up! 🤠

[@Lord-Wams]

Could you please give us an update on the Audeze Maxwell, and if the software has improved

[@metalwolf1086]

As a Maxwell user, Software has been updated but I can’t really notice improvements on the iPhone app. Pc app was good enough.

Great video! Does anybody know if the cloud 3 wireless has a hissing/white noise while the headset is on? Bought cloud 2 wireless a few years back and had to return it because it was a hissing sound while it was on ,read it was a wide spread issue ,probably because of the transmitter.

[@NostalgicMem0ries]

amazing review, but i wonder how these are for movies watchin and music listening, i dont game much, only most popular games, no multiplayers ones, so i need overall headphones with great battery life, this fits all the boxes for me, will they be good for immersive movies watching?

[@jacobbarfield7828]

Hey, Joe. Even now a year after this video dropped, would you say that the Cloud 3 wireless is the most well-rounded wireless headset under $200USD? For things like comfort, build-quality, out-of-the-box sound quality and mic quality, battery life, etc. Just basically good at everything and bad at nothing. Or would a different headset beat it in this department now?

[@NeO26597]

Just bought these for 100 euros, so excited

[@GadgetryTech]

That's a steal! Enjoy

[@garethg8226]

Good review Joe. I'd say people who went for the wired version are pissed right now. Do you prefer them over the G Pro X 2 or are they very similar sound wise?

[@GadgetryTech]

It's not the end of the world though because the wired one is so much less money and is still great overall. This one is better, yes, but you're paying the extra $60 for it.

[@GadgetryTech]

G Pro X is better if you want o EQ it for Playstation, because they finally added that feature. The HyperX Cloud 3 is better if you just want plug and play without dealing with tweaks

[@hazmieharith1638]

Cloud III Wireless vs Blackshark V2 Pro (2023) which one is better for competitive game like valorant, csgo & apex?

[@joeyg2781]

I have both and reccomend cloud 3s

[@wrangler10]

The 1 mil dollars question. , HyperX Cloud III VS Razer Blackshark V2 Pro 2023 , who wins?

[@JimmyQuan-e8b]

HyperX Cloud 3.

[@ddiluzio3026]
