The HyperX Cloud III headphones are an enhanced and updated version of the Cloud II headset, offering high-quality sound, thoughtful ergonomics, and a durable construction. Here's what you need to know about the HyperX Cloud III:
Features:
- Reliable all-metal frame
- 53mm drivers
- Memory foam cushions and headband
- Wide connectivity options
- DTS: X Spatial Sound
- Excellent noise-canceling microphone with LED status indicator
- Customizable EQ and presets
The sound in the HyperX Cloud III is provided by angled 53mm drivers. The frequency range has been slightly increased compared to standard gaming headphones, ranging from 10 to 21000 Hz. The bass is ample without compromising other frequencies, allowing for maximum immersion in games. Even the smallest details are clear and distinguishable.
The HyperX Cloud III features a detachable 10mm microphone with noise-canceling functionality and a mesh filter to suppress unwanted sounds. The filter and noise-canceling perform well, as speech is clearly heard during phone calls while keyboard clicks are minimized. There's also a new LED indicator that flashes when the microphone is turned off.
The headset has a standard 3.5mm connector, allowing it to be connected to various devices. It comes with a jack 3.5mm - USB Type-C cable and a USB-C - USB-A adapter, greatly expanding the connectivity options for the HyperX Cloud III. The headphones can be connected to smartphones, tablets, computers, gaming consoles, and Nintendo Switch docking stations.
The controls on the HyperX Cloud III are conveniently located on the headphones themselves, unlike the Cloud II, which had a mini remote on the cable. The volume adjustment wheel is located on the right side, and a small circular button for toggling the microphone is found on the left side. The placement and design of the controls ensure easy operation without confusion.
The HyperX Cloud III is compatible with the HyperX Ngenuity software, which allows access to a 10-band equalizer with various preset options and the ability to create custom configurations. It also enables volume adjustment for the headphones and microphone, as well as the activation of DTS:X Spatial Sound.
