Need to upgrade your gaming audio quality on a budget? This HyperX gaming headset deal will sort you out. The HyperX Cloud Alpha is an old favorite of ours, and while it might be getting a little long in the tooth, it’s still got a decent set of specs for modern gamers, and it’s now on sale with a huge 30% discount.
This HyperX headset is a serious option for gamers who need a comfortable setup at a budget-friendly price. It’s only been a few weeks since HyperX released its upgraded Cloud Alpha 2 wireless headset, but we’ve been recommending this OG’s sibling, the HyperX Cloud 3, in our best gaming headset guide for some time.
It all started with this original, however. In our original HyperX Cloud Alpha review, we praised it for its “fantastic mix of audio quality, subtle, robust style, and incredible value.” It’s still got plenty to offer now, too, thanks to those 50mm dual chamber drivers, which help to deliver a decent, well-balanced sound for gaming and music playback. The memory foam ear cushions, meanwhile, should remain comfortable for hours at a time.
This is a fully wired headset using a 3.5mm aux cable connection, so no battery life to worry about here, either. It comes with a fully detachable mic, so if you’re not keen on in-game comms, you can remove it entirely – it just plugs straight back in when you need it. You can tweak your audio settings using the equalizer in HyperX’s control app, with a range of presets available.
For an aging headset, there’s still plenty of life left in the HyperX Cloud Alpha, especially with a $69.99 price tag, saving you $30 on its usual price. You can pick it up, while the discount lasts, using this link here. UK gamers, meanwhile, can pick it up for £45.98, a nearly half price saving, using this link instead.
