HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless Review: Unprecedented Battery Life

HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless Review: Unprecedented Battery Life

The best wireless gaming headsets provide all the audio quality you get from their wired counterparts without the hassle of being tethered to your PC or getting cables caught under the wheels of your chair. However, most models max out at 30 hours of endurance, which means that you need to remember to charge them regularly.

HyperX's Cloud Alpha Wireless breaks the mold, by combining excellent audio output, strong build quality and a rated 300 hours of battery life. That's ten times what competitors such as the Razer Kraken Pro and HyperX's own Cloud Flight Wireless offer. And indeed, in our use, the headset lasted through more than two weeks of regular use, without even coming close to needing a charge. 

While the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless offers great sound and long battery life, it's not without trade-offs. For the premium price of $199, you don't get RGB lighting, haptic feedback or any other way  to connect except for 2.4 GHz wireless. However, if you don't need these extras, the Cloud Alpha Wireless is hard to beat.
