HyperX approach gaming peripherals with a very simple design ethos. Its number one concern is the number one requirement from you, and it's a philosophy that's largely paid off for the relatively young company. The Cloud Revolver S, announced at CES 2017, is the biggest, baddest headset in the company's range.

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.

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.

If you're looking for a headset that's competent in an eSports arena, or for playing games on any console, desktop system, or mobile device, that still holds up well for listening to music on the go, or watching a few movies, the HyperX Cloud Revolver S is as versatile as they come!

Durable build quality; Stylish design; Lightweight construction; Multi-format support; Detachable microphone; Excellent acoustic performance; Comfortable fit; Dolby processing (USB mode only; Trusted brand name

HyperX Cloud Revolver S is just a perfect gaming headset which is also great for all who are not playing games often but still wish to experience great sound while watching movies or listening to the favourite audio files.

Sound cards great, 7.1 meh.., very comfortable memory foam. The cloud II's are honestly worth every cent :)

Gaming headphones come in all shapes and sizes. From wired to wireless, understated to more gaudy, brightly lit designs, you can find nearly any type of design you'd like.

Since we couldn't attend this year's Computex (check our news section for coverage - many interesting products have been unveiled so far) we focused our efforts in testing as many things as we possibly can and it's no surprise really that many of those are gaming peripherals.

Build Quality; Extremely Comfortable (Extra Large Earpads / Suspension Design; Very Good Mids & Highs; Good Bass Levels; Detachable Microphone (Easier To Replace; 3.5mm & USB Sound Card Use; 3 Available EQ Presets

Price (For Some; 7.1 Dolby surround Sound Doesn't "Excite

Top quality and confortable to use for extended periods of gaming, great surround effect, never miss someone trying to come from behind

For the price I paid, this is honestly an amazing headset. Great step up to the Revolver the metal doesnt make a lot of noise at all.

By far the most amazing sounding headset for the price range; the noise cancellation mic is pretty great as well but I still prefer my external Blue Snowball Mic over it. The Dolby stereo sound does work well in CS GO i can hear the enemy steps really well and the equalizing modes for listening to...

The only weakness would be that it is not wireless or that it doesn't come with extra cups for the ears; and since it is leather your ears will get heated after a long marathon gaming session (5~ 8 hours)

Anyone who's followed HyperX for the past few years and saw last year's Cloud Revolver knew what was coming next: the HyperX Cloud Revolver S. It's a familiar pattern for the company nowadays-first the stereo version of a headset and then, about a year later, the USB-enabled version with surround...
