Kingston HyperX Cloud Stinger Review
The HyperX Cloud Stinger is one of the most capable wired gaming headsets you can buy for under $50. You can find some pretty good gaming headsets for just under $50. Kingston has one such option in the HyperX Cloud Stinger, a $49.99 wired gaming headset that feels comfortable and offers solid audio performance and very good microphone quality. You can get a slightly better-sounding headset by spending a bit more, but if you're on a strict budget, the Cloud Stinger is an excellent choice. Design The Cloud Stinger ($41.99 at Amazon) is a very plain headset, with an all-black, all-plastic design that fits in line with its budget price. It doesn't feel cheap at all, but it does little to catch your eye or seem particularly rugged or complex in its construction. The synthetic leather over-ear earpads and headband padding are soft and comfortable, but not quite as thick as the earpads on the Razer Kraken Pro V2 , and nowhere near as luxurious as the Turtle Beach Elite Pro Tournament Headset ($200.00 at Amazon) . The only color on the headset comes from the painted red HyperX logos on...
Pros:
- Comfortable
- Strong audio performance for the price
- Good microphone
Cons:
- Weak in extreme low and high frequencies

HyperX Cloud Stinger Gaming Headset
Headsets, like most peripherals, are very subjective. Both looks and fit make reviews more opinion based than products we can accurately benchmark, at least without some very expensive audio equipment.
Pros:
- Comfortable memory foam ear cups
- Directional drivers
- Great gaming separation
- Massive compatibility
Cons:
- Plastic construction
- Microphone could be better
- Distorts at high end of range

HyperX Cloud Stinger review: Solid entry-level audio is cheaper than ever
HyperX first made a name for itself back in 2014 with the release of its Cloud headset. Featuring clean audio and an incredible level of comfort for a street price of $80, we've been recommending the Cloud ever since.

Great for Gaming!
Never have I ever heard the enemy footsteps so clearly in Overwatch before. This pair of headset has taken my gaming experience to a whole new level.
