Review: Decent Headset for the price, still work after 5 years. -
I bought a pair of these May 2017 and the only reason I remember
that date is because desertcart tells me when I look at them.
They were the first headset I bought myself that I paid "silly
price" for as my mum would say and that was even discounted but
there's a good reason for that, they're really good quality.
They're very comfortable (as someone that wears glasses,
headphones usually pose a problem but I've never experienced
discomfort wearing these) The Audio quality is astounding,
crystal clear, good bass and after a while you can tell when
surround sound isn't enabled. The mic was pretty good quality
however I ran into a problem after a few months where there would
be static or a buzzing on the mic, I put this down to the fact
that when I wasn't using the mic I would unplug it and the port
must have just been worn out? I'm not too sure but I would just
suggest not unplugging it all the time like I did. 5 years later
the headset is still working perfectly however as you can imagine
the daily ware and tear has taken its toll on these poor things
and I'm not a light user. Over those five years they have been
used anywhere from 4 hours a day to over 12 and these are some of
the issues I've only just encountered in the last couple of
months; The leather on the ear cushions began peeling and I would
find it on my desk, in my hair, on the floor so I had to remove
them and replace them with the fabric ones that come in the box.
Still very comfortable but I have to spend a bit of time pulling
stray hairs and random fuzz out of them, anybody that's ever
owned fake leather knows that this happens after a while even if
you take good care of it. The Audio Control box still works but
would cause a static disruption over what I was listening to from
time to time, I put this down to ware and tear of over 5 years of
use but also I would unplug the headset regularly so that I could
use it on my phone or plug into my playstation controller. I had
to stop using it and now my headset plugs directly into a port on
my pc, still sound great but don't really have the easy volume
functions anymore. All in all this is a really great headset for
a decent price and if you take decent care of your belongings it
could last you a decent amount of time. I'm just leaving this
review now because they were so good I'm getting a new pair as a
replacement so I can retire these old ones.
Review: Excellent headset - I bought a pair of the HyperX Cloud
II headset, and they were so good, I came back and bought
another. The sound is very, very good for the price. I also
bought a more expensive headset around the same time by a
different manufacturer and I have to say they were nowhere near
as good as the HyperX Cloud II. The headset comes with a USB
cable and a clip-on soundcard, with separate volume control and
separate mic input level. There's also a button to activate the
7.1 virtual surround sound. I should mention that this headset
also works without the accompanying USB cable - in that it can be
plugged straight into a standard 3.5 mm jack. There's not that
much loss of quality by removing the USB connection, but you do
then lose the 7.1 virtual surround sound and the volume and input
controls, as well as leaving the overall length of the cable much
shorter. But it is useful to be able to connect it in a standard
way through the 3.5 mm headphone jack. One issue I noticed, was
that you need to make sure that the detachable mic "boom" is
plugged in all the way - it almost has to click right in,
otherwise the mic may not work, or it can even fall off the
headset. This mic issue did not affect the overall usefulness of
the headset for me, but it might become a problem for someone
using it for gaming where more physical movement is involved.
Incidentally, I only noticed the difficulty plugging the
microphone in all the way with one of the two headsets I bought,
so it may be a one-off. Since the boom mic part is fully
detachable, for anyone just wanting to use the headset as
headphones, then they will work very well for this, without the
intrusive mic getting in the way or sticking out. I used one of
the pairs I bought purely as headphones - minus the mic part. The
sonic quality is incredible and you barely hear any external
noises around you. The bass is excellent as well as the general
fidelity of the sound. They are comfortable on the ears and I
highly recommend the headset. I think they are worth 5 to 10
times the price they actually cost.
