The verdict
The HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 Wireless is excellent for competitive FPS gaming. The base station looks nice, and is useful for streaming controls, but others might find it a bit of a gimmick. If you want multiple connections and a week of battery life, this headset is worth a look.
✓Liked: Sound tuned for competitive gaming, Battery, Comfortable, Connection options
✕Could be better: Wireless base is a bit of a gimmick, Casual gamers may want more bass
