Great headset. Very comfortable, solid build, sturdy chord, simple to use, no frills and good sound. Perfect update to the very popular Cloud II.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Microphone doesn’t work after testing, and replugging it. However, the Cloud 3 audio quality is better than Logitech 733 with DTS Enabled.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

HyperX Cloud III, Not Quite on Cloud 9, but Close

I play mostly on the PC with this headset. So my review will be from that perspective.
Pros:
- It’s as comfortable, if not more comfortable than the Cloud II.
- The sound quality is great, and according to friends the mic quality is better too.
- I love the new onboard controls for volume and muting. The Cloud II’s controls were only accessible through the cable if you’re plugged into a PC leaving you needing some other way to mute or adjust volume on the consoles.

Cons:
- I thought the LED mute indicator was a great addition, but sometimes I still miss the fact that I am muted until I’ve already tried saying something.
- One friend has complained that the new mute button makes an uncomfortable static noise when I mute and unmute. (on the Cloud II it was a switch on the controller you plug the headset into, it didn’t make any noise.)
- My Cloud II came with a lot more accessories, and this microphone was missing a Wind Muff, Pop Filter (the little synthetic fur thing that goes on the end of mics to block wind and other slight background noises.) This meant my friends even heard my normal breathing and the fan sometimes. I was able to remove the cover from my Cloud II and it fit on the microphone for the Cloud III, but having one in the box, or on the mic would’ve been nice.

Overall it’s a nice upgrade, especially if your Cloud II is starting to get worn out like mine was. But if you just got a Cloud II, you’re not missing out on something life-changing if you wait to purchase this one.
