All in all, then, the HyperX Cloud Stinger is a well designed headset – simple to use, comfortable and with enough adjustment to keep most users happy. Audio quality is good, both from the microphone and from the speakers themselves. The pricing is keen t...
The Cloud Stinger continues the tradition of being a gimmick free, great sounding headset. This time in a sleeker, lighter package. The audio delivery by the 50mm drivers is as you would expect, good, providing deep brooding bass with clear mids and highs...

Bass reproduction is just okay, Bulky look
The HyperX Cloud Stinger gives you solid audio performance at an affordable price point. If you're willing to pay a little more, you can now get it in pink...
Comfortable fit, Good sound quality, Solid wireless performance, Reasonable price
No customization, No 3.5mm audio jack

Very comfortable, Great audio quality for the price, Feels durable
Plastic look, Non-retractable mic, Poor volume control
At the $50 price point, it is going to be real tough to find a headset that beats out the HyperX Cloud Stinger. The audio is excellent and no other headset at this price point can even hope to rival it in terms of comfort. If you are looking for a budget...
Great sound for the price, Microphone mute by swivel, Extremely comfortable
Not great for music without an DAC, Headband could be more padded
After using the HyperX Cloud Stinger for the past couple weeks, I have found that for the price they perform quite well. HyperX has done a beautiful job in offering a budget-conscious solution for the gaming market. This by no means is a $500 headset by s...
Superior comfort and fit. These headsets are comfortable thanks to their unique design and lightweight nature. Even after hours of gaming, you won't feel them on, 50mm drivers are taken directly from the Cloud I and Cloud II series so their sound signatur
All of us felt that the bass was a bit too punchy for our liking. Thankfully, the mids, highs and lows all seem naturally balanced, Noise cancellation is passive and thus won't completely block out ambient noises. Not an issue though because the cans are
