What customers say about "Key Specs"
HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black
- The headset is very comfortable. I wear my headset nearly all day and it never hurts.
- The headset evenly distributes pressure on the head band so it's not focused just on the top of my head. The headphones do not touch my ears in any meaningful way.
- It is the most comfortable headset that I've ever owned. The ear cups do a good job of canceling noise out as well.
- Comfort is good, you get both leather and fabric earpads so you can have your choice and they aren't too tight on your head either, they feel very comfortable.
- The headphones are very solidly build, the headband is made of a lovely soft touch material that you can use for hours at a time without realising it's still there.
Logitech G430 Gaming Headset for PC Gaming with 7.1 Dolby Surround, Black/Blue
- Very comfortable to wear - fit completely over my ears - wore them for several hours with no fatigue.
- The G430 has a very good fit that actually allows the full ear to go inside of the pads thus avoiding painful ear lobes.
- Really comfortable headset, can wear it for hours with little fatigue.
- Lightweight, fits well and my ears don't sweat as much as they did with my old headset.
- The material on the cups feels great. They are very breathable, they do not feel warm or hot, and they will not make your ears sweat.
- The surrounding area of the ear is a little bit uncomfortable, but since it is not that expensive I would understand.

What customers say about "Headset"
HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black
- The sound quality of this headset is great and it's comfortable!
- The sound for headphones is pretty amazing. It delivers reasonably well across a wide dynamic range and base has a nice kick to it.
- Sound quality through the headset is good with great balance, mids are clear and the bass is present but not overpowering or muddy. Highs are a little quiet.
- They sounded amazing, I heard things in the game I hadn't heard so clear on other headsets the road noise and engine noise was outstanding.
- My only gripe is with the speaker head comforters that while can go on easily, often fall off.
Logitech G430 Gaming Headset for PC Gaming with 7.1 Dolby Surround, Black/Blue
- I love this headset the sound quality is really great you can literally hear footsteps and everything around you HOWEVER they break so easily.
- Excellent sound quality, the sound stage is impressive and it produces excellent bass. I find music sound better in regular stereo mode.
- The virtual surround sound delivers on its promise. This will up your game if your system supports Dolby 7.1 or virtual surround sound.
- The sound was AMAZING and made all of my games much more enjoyable with the surround sound.
- Sound quality is crisp and clear with a lot of range. Deep bass and crisp highs like you would expect from headphones of this size.
- The sound quality is "meh" at best, virtually no base, and the volume even when maxed out is VERY low.

What customers say about "Microphone"
HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black
- The mic is a tad quiet, though it is significantly better than all headsets I've tried so far.
- The microphone is pretty standard for a gaming headset.
- The mic is amazingly clear & not in the way.
- The mic is detachable, and it comes with it's own built in volume control. It`s nice.
- Everyone I have spoken to says they can hear me nice and clearly, and I never have trouble distinguishing game and chat audio.
- The microphone is horrible. I'm not sure for the reason, but it picks up even moderate volume sound from the headphones.
Logitech G430 Gaming Headset for PC Gaming with 7.1 Dolby Surround, Black/Blue
- Microphone boom is flexible enough to get a perfect position and I have had nothing but compliments from my friends about the improvement of my mics sound quality.
- Microphone is decent and good, and the sound is also pretty nice. The mic also adjusts up and down and bends a decent motion.
- Mic works really well! Doesn't pick up background noise like a fan which is really nice!
- The mic wasn't bad either,it allowed for recordings without any issues.
- Microphone is sensitive enough to pick up whispers and will only buzz at the loudest screams I could produce.
- This is terrible. It does not auto mute when it is folded, and if you turn the surround sound on, it will pic up any and all ambient noise.

What customers say about "Features"
HyperX Cloud (KHX-H3CL/WR) Cloud Gaming Headset for PC/PS4/Mac/Mobile, Black
- Current manufacturer pricing is amazing for the quality of build. Best build quality I've had in a headset, ever.
- The headphones are fine in regards to sound and comfort. It should be noted that these are designed for PC/Mac first, console second.
- Overall it's a very good headset and feels like it'll stand up to years of use, the aluminium construction feels solid and of high quality.
- Unbelievable quality for the price. Beautifully solid with a high quality weighty feel, with superior materials used throughout, really nice leather stitched band across the top.

- They also have inline mute switch and volume wheel that clips onto your shirt and an attached velcro cable tie to bunch up what cord you aren't using.
- Build quality is more durable than I expected at this price point, the plastics are of good quality and the padding is just about perfect in terms of firmness.
- The first time I put them on I was surprised at the noise cancellation. It really tunes out everything else and its amazing!
- The cord is long and volume control easy to use. You can mute the mic when not in use.
- Build quality doesn't feel great but it hasn't broken in the 2 days I've had it so I probably can't complain.
