Great sound, Works on a lot of platforms, Bass vents make output customizable
Microphone, Less accurate than the regular Cloud Alpha, No inline controls for console gaming
Getting the right configuration can take some work, but if you're gaming on PC this can offer a better experience than just about anything else for the price...
7.1 virtual surround, remote/mixer, Stunning sound reproduction, Great microphone, Signature HyperX comfort, Highquality construction, new black color
The cord is too long for the remote, Some optional customization software would be nice

Extremely comfortable design, great for long sessions, Feels like a premium headset thanks to high build quality, Very useful detachable clipon audio controller with a long cable length, Fantastic default sound quality

No software, thus no useful features, such as microphone sidetone, Microphone performance bogged down by the microphone input quality on the supplied USB sound card, Bass sliders feel gimmicky, Aggressive and unpleasant 7.1 virtual surround sound
The HyperX Cloud Alpha S is available online for $129.99/€124.99. Excellent sound quality, both for games and music Terrific build quality and comfort Removable cables Replaceable ear cushions Useful game/chat volume mixer No software, thus no useful fea...
Extremely comfortable, Good stereo sound, Elegant design
Awkward mixer, Metallic surround sound, Weak bass
The Cloud Alpha S is a solid headset, easy to wear and functional for gaming. It's also a frustrating one, due to its tetchy mixer, subpar surround sound and lack of bass. If all you want is something comfortable for gaming and you have $130 to spend, thi...
Comfortable, interesting design, Game / chat balance button, Resistant to fingerprints, Virtual surround sound amplifies audio in gaming, movies,
No software, Bass sliders don't add much thump, Virtual surround sound isn't great for music
The HyperX Cloud Alpha S offers a lot for its price, including a lightweight fit and handy inline controls. But its bass adjustment sliders are forgettable...
