Attractive design, Solid construction, Long lasting comfort, Multiplatform compatibility, Wide sound stage, Superb, well balanced audio, Dolby 7.1 Virtual Surround, Detachable microphone, Features rubber antivibration pads (no more ringing)
USB control box could be better
HyperX have done a fantastic job of proving that 'gaming headsets' isn't a synonym for poor quality, muddy sounding audio. The studio grade drivers are amongst the few we can genuinely say are the real deal. The sound-stage is incredible, picking out dist...

Easy to use, decently comfortable,
Expensive
The Cloud Revolver S is a decent headset, though it is far from our favorites. We weren't really fans of the odd headband auto-adjust system and the slightly higher than expected price tag preclude it from an award...
l the HyperX Cloud Revolver II is a great headset for the price it comes with. It boasts a nice clean and sleek design that's very comfortable to wear. It has a nice durable build to hit that can be easily slipped on and off the head, without feeling too...
Great audio performance, both for music and serious gaming, Excellent build quality (steel frame with rubberized surface), Very comfortable, even after prolonged use, Good microphone quality (especially when connected to something other than the supplied
Awkward placement of the sound card/control module, Quite a hefty price, Supplied sound card doesn't use the microphone to its full potential, Microphone-monitoring feature isn't documented anywhere - found it almost by accident, Dolby Headphone 7.1 Surro
The HyperX Cloud Revolver S is available online for £140/$150/€170. Great audio performance, both for music and serious gaming Excellent build quality (steel frame with rubberized surface) Very comfortable, even after prolonged use Good microphone qual...
Still has the Cloud line's signature audio, New EQ settings built into the control box, Better noise cancellation in the microphone
Metal band still reverberates when touched, 7.1 performance isn't up to par with competitors, Overly expensive when compared feature-to-feature with competitors
The end result: It's hard to say whether the Cloud Revolver S is worth it. HyperX made its name off affordable peripherals, but at $150 the Revolver S is one of the most expensive wired headsets on the market. Logitech's G633, Razer's Man O' War, SteelSer...

HyperX consistently nails each price range it enters with its headsets, and the Revolver S is no exception. It features powerful, clear audio quality in a comfortable package. If you are in the $150 price range for a headset, this is an easy recommendatio...
Big drivers and large earcups provide huge sound, Very comfortable memory foam and leatherette earcups, No software install necessary, Work well for gaming and non-gaming applications, Versatile for PC/Mac, PS4, Xbox One, even mobile
Design is nice, but not likely one you'd take out of the game room
If you're looking for a new pair of gaming headphones that don't slouch outside of gaming, the HyperX Cloud Revolver S should be on your list. They're comfortable, versatile, and put out a huge sound at a good price.*We were sent a review sample of the Hy...
The HyperX Cloud Revolver S is the best headset I had a chance to review. It's just perfect regardless if you want to play games, watch movies or listen to music. One headset which also works on various devices and has USB connection.HyperX Cloud Revolver...

Crisp and smooth sound quality, amazing mic noise reduction, comfortable to wear for extended periods
Price over previous model, awkward mic movements, uncomfortable to wear around neck, Prev2 of 2Next
In the end, it is up to the individual whether they want to pay a premium over the Cloud Revolver for Dolby 7.1 virtual surround sound and a few cosmetic upgrades. It should be noted that HyperX are newcomers to this market, but the headsets they have per...

The Cloud Revolver S is unfairly, obscenely comfortable. It's like wearing two sound pillows on your face
Missing the on-ear buttons of a lot of other headsets makes mid-game muting and volume tweaks a bit of a pain
Some design choices get in the way of function, but for comfort and sound quality the Cloud Revolver S is sunshine on a rainy day...
