The verdict

The HyperX Cloud Revolver is easy to use and works everywhere, but at the end of the day, it's poor suspension band just isn't comfortable. For the price, there are better, more comfortable options from the likes of Razer, SteelSeries, Logitech, and even HyperX.

✓Liked: Wide platform compatibility, Easy to use, Software-free surround sound

✕Could be better: Uncomfortable, No volume control when using 3.5mm

How we verify owners

Nobody who owns the HyperX Cloud Revolver has written in yet.

Owner reviews are not paid for, not solicited from specific owners, and not rewritten by us: at most we proofread typos, which is shown on the review’s own page and which the author can undo. The commission SoundGuys may earn on this page comes from retail links, never from owner reviews.
