HyperX Cloud MIX Buds review: Nice, but not quite for me

[@silversonic360]

These should be great on the Steam Deck. I tried using my AirPods Pro on the Steam Deck and that works for most games. But forget about using them for rythym games. Update: Got them in today. Works great on the Deck with the 2.4ghz adapter. The Deck also still fits in the included carrying case with the adapter plugged in which is convenient.

[@BloodshedRomance]

I think the worry on the steam deck is the adapter would block the charging port unless you use a breakout dongle. depends on how "low latency" the bluetooth really is.

[@akarins]

The lowest latency is by the dongle I believe, so you’ll trade off by blocking the only USB-C port on the steam deck unless you have a small multi-port dock

[@silversonic360]

@@BloodshedRomance I would imagine the Bluetooth latency would be just as bad as the AirPods Pro. That’s the main reason I wanted these. Bluetooth is fine for most games but forget about relying on strict audio cues. Luckily the latency on the 2.4ghz adapter is extremely low.

[@uberheropatapon]

How are mics on these ?

[@freeignition]

This is exactly what I was looking for on my gaming laptop! I use it at school and while working (when I have down time) i really like that it's discreet and 2.4ghz. I have the pixel earbuds which are great with my phone on Bluetooth but when it comes to connecting with my laptop the quality is not the same and it gets tricky with windows audio devices, and it's always been like that with any Bluetooth device. I love that it's basically an earbud style stereo headset with a dedicated dongle.

[@TopReasons]

These are an improvement over the 1st gen buds. kzbin.infoUgkxK5mc3yw4xA7Mf2j6k6n1Uqv_KUgrKdeM Pros: The fit is fantastic. This is the biggest plus. They stay in my ears when running and become unnoticeable. They are tight but comfortable. The sound quality is about the same as the 1st gen buds. They pair more easily with my LG G8 ThinQ and immediately reconnect when removed from the case. The sound balance is excellent, good but not overpowering base and clean mid tones and highs.Cons: The noise cancellation is good but perhaps a little less effective than the Bose ANC on the 1st gen buds. Passthrough mode as not as good as the 1st gen buds making it a little more difficult to hear conversations when in passthrough.

[@DeuszYT]

Love the video, keep up the good work man!

[@TienTran-uq6to]

I am not surprise when hyperx not allow simultaneously connection 2,4ghz + bluetooth because it will drain battery very fast even on over ear headset with large battery. Maybe they should come with neckband design with separate battery for longer play time and help shrink down the earbuds size

[@TheAndychristGG]

Great video. Do you have a suggestion for gaming earbuds, which can play sound from Bluetooth device and 2.4 ghz dongle, at the same time?

[@emeresbestres1]

I hope Hyperx will implement side tone in those. That would be cool.

[@MrMontes1987]

I just got these in the mail today. I didn’t realize how important Side Tone is to me. I will be sending them back unfortunately. I hope in the future they do implement that feature as well.

[@emeresbestres1]

@@MrMontes1987 I've sent them back because of the lousy fit. They couldn't stay in my ears no matter what.

[@isaacnewton5364]

Is side tone like the noise cancelation in air pod pros?

[@SSNebula]

@@isaacnewton5364no, it’s like the sound you can hear around you etc

[@WoozyK7]

Hope you review the JBL Quantum TWS which is probably the only competitor, at this time, for this in the 2.4ghz gaming earbuds space.

[@-XTC-]

Currently trying to decide between these two...

[@WoozyK7]

@@-XTC- HyperX's seems to have slightly better battery life, lasting 2 hours longer in both BT and 2.4ghz mode. JBL's has some nice features such as switching to bluetooth seamlessly to answer calls and ANC.

[@TienTran-uq6to]

Well i read the jbl quantum tws manual and look like the battery life is not good in the 2.4ghz connection its about 4hrs with ANC off or 3.5hrs with ANC on. The earbud also support fast charging 15m for 3hrs (they said 3hrs music playtime so i dont know how long you have with 2.4ghz). The good thing to me is you can stored the usb transmitter inside the charging case but they dont provide usb C to A converter you had to buy it separately

[@-XTC-]

@@WoozyK7 Just bought the JBLs. 134€ - lets see... they are probably both similiar. Maybe i will order the HyberX too, if i rly don't like the JBLs.

[@-XTC-]

@@TienTran-uq6to yup, saw that too. But those numbers are mostly fake anyway, same like those frequency ranges and microphone sensitivity values - it needs to be reviewed first.... For me as an early/first adopter at this stage it comes down to: fitting comfort, style and unique features like ANC, Ambient Mode, Dual Source, Bluetooth profile (SBC), Case (slot for USB C), USB C Dongle, DTSX, Side Tone, permanent EQ without permanent bloadware etc. Based on these both have their advantages/disadvantages.

[@KduCRib]

I bought one and I wish I hadn`t. The audio is great while mic is not somehow activated. I was listening to music and everything was great. Then I joined a discord (also tested on Teamspeak 3) call while it was playing and when any communication software use the microfone connection the sound loses quality and all the bass. Horrible to play anything this way. I tested in 2 different notebooks and in my Iphone and the result is always the same. A friend of mine also bought this and the same thing happens to him. Don`t buy if your intention is gaming with your friends. For solo play or listening to music it is not bat at all.

[@chuchublahh5322]

Besides the mic quality my left earbud stopped working I can’t hear a thing but people can hear me with it on and I don’t even use them as much

[@icyFlaMe-mo4wb]

Is the quality of sound good for gaming like can u hear footsteps and gunshot clearly or not? Thanks

[@abodeymerjan7485]

same question here

[@Nostrite]

Are you going to review the jbl quantum tws when they come out to north america?

[@metalmanexetreme]

Gawd I hope this is a branch to the gaming audio market and not where it is headed in general, I’ve always had a love hate relationship with in ear headphones, their great for activities and parkour and such, but boy do they cause some major discomfort over even a brief period. These seem like they’d be really cool for someone who needs sound on the go but that doesn’t people to know they have sound on them, and the fact the can just be thrown in a pocket is a plus, point off for the case not having s port for the wifi dongle so it’s truly a mobile gaming headset. Again awesome if this is a diversification of the market, upsetting if it’s foreshadowing where the market is headed.

[@cg8565]

its been a couple days i am using mix buds, left one doesnt work anymore I'm disappointed i will take my money back

[@zhukovgaming9454]

Unfortunately I bought them and in 1 week it failed, I can no longer hear the left earphone, I already tried to synchronize and I can't find a solution

[@SSNebula]

That’s what wasn’t is for, isn’t it?

[@All_hail_staten]

Forthe record, not for me either, i dont know if i just got a pair of duds, but they basically stopped working after 2 days. Wont charge. The dongle and other piece work, but the wireless buds themselves do not.

[@Dik_in_mouth]

Can I use these with my blue yetti? I play warzone

[@_360X]

i have a big question, does the DTS also works with mobile with using this earphone ?

[@mujahidabdussalam757]

Hello everyone, Is this buds recommend for android game like pubg mobile?

[@viccellxcellent3319]

is it compatible for apple?

[@kangwei5804]

After connected to PS5, can it do party chat?

[@schizowallflower]

Do you know how these compare to the Soul S-Play Gaming Earbuds that came out a couple months ago?

[@descry1]

The S-Play is different because it has 2 Bluetooth modes- normal and lower latency mode which degrades the signal to get better latency. The MIX Buds have both Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz wireless modes. If you game or watch movies, the performance with 2.4 GHz wireless band will outperform the S-Play by ~40% which is potentially a huge improvement if you're using these earbuds to game with

[@bluepeasent-bh2yb]

Trick is to use final audio (spin fit ear tips )

How loud are they on PC vs wired earbuds?

[@香噴噴-p6f]

very similar i would say

[@KaniaYasa]

Nice content bro

[@Charlie100]

Ultimately as a user. I want this but also to have an aux option for when I travel and ipx5 when I work out. Furthermore having the case double up as a portable battery pack for my other devices would be great. This would make it perfect for me to have an all in one option and don't have to carry multiple devices. This is the future I want with wireless earbuds.

Been waiting for 2.4ghz buds for ages. Used to have the Audeze penrose until they snapped and want to replace them with buds but I hate bluetooth. Usb all the way for me baby!

[@16ton7]

I'm the exact same way. I wonder how many wireless earbuds there are out there with 2.4ghz.

[@WoozyK7]

@@16ton7 I believe these are the first ones(not including the epos gtw 270 hybrid since it's just an aptx low latency dongle). JBL is coming out with their quantum tws which is 2.4ghz.

[@TienTran-uq6to]

Damn my Penrose broke too after 1,5 year the sound quality is really good but battery life is average, the duo connection with 2.4ghz + bluetooth somehow buggy and drain battery like hell

[@6rey728]

they going to right direction with the gaming earbuds but the rubber thingy is the wrong move, it feels so uncomfortable to put it in your ears for sometime. Recently i bought a airpods 3 and the design is so perfect but the low latency for gaming is just not there, so i hope other company gonna release other model like the airpod soon.

[@emeresbestres1]

Is their app also for Android? I can't seem to locate it on Play Store.
