HyperX Cloud Alpha
HyperX Cloud III Wireless
If you're looking for wireless gaming headphones, you'll want to check out the HyperX Cloud III Wireless, but if you're looking for wired, plug-and-play headphones, then the HyperX Cloud Alpha will be up your alley. While both pairs are equally comfortable, the wireless Cloud III have companion app support, so you can customize their sound to your liking and access a virtual soundstage feature for a more immersive audio experience. They also have low enough latency that your audio and visuals stay in sync while gaming. Conversely, the wired Cloud Alpha are better built, and their boom microphone offers a better overall performance.
