This time, the prolific brand will be entering the waters of wireless audio with the HyperX Cloud Flight Headset; announced today. Here are all the exciting details.
First off, it's great to see HyperX finally venturing where many large companies such as Logitech and Razer have been playing for quite some time now; while also sticking to their iconic "Cloud" naming system. Nothing but top tier quality is expected of the upcoming product.
Speaking of which,; allegedly, the new headset will have a whopping 30 hours of battery life! Living up to this claim will make it one of the best batteries out there in the market by a longshot. The following was stated in a press conference, in regards to other specifications:
"Sporting closed cup design with 90 degree rotating ear cups, Cloud Flight provides an immersive in-game audio experience with 50mm drivers, broadcasting at 2.4 GHz. "
50mm drivers should do a fantastic job at creating a superior soundstage while the broadcasting rate will ensure clear, accurate and quick audio transmission from your gaming machine, whether it's a PC, Xbox One or PS4. On board controls over the LED effects, of which there are, microphone, power and volume are present. Note that the wireless connectivity is through a USB dongle, not Bluetooth.
The Cloud Flight headset will go on sale in January 2018 for a little under 200 euros. Be sure to keep up to date with your favourite names in tech, as they'll surely cover this product. If you'd like to check out some of our own reviews of HyperX headsets you may click the links below:
