I’ve tested dozens of gaming headsets over the years and I’ve come to experience firsthand how vastly different the level of quality can be. The HyperX Cloud III is the headset that I love the most because it offers excellent sound quality and microphone quality at a lower price than many of its competitors. Right now, it’s even easier on the wallet thanks to an early Black Friday deal.
The HyperX Cloud III Wired is $19 off right now while the HyperX Cloud III Wireless version is $40 off. These are the lowest prices either one has ever been since they released earlier this year.

What makes the HyperX Cloud III so good?
I can tell you right now, one of the biggest gaming faux pas people make is using a bad-quality microphone to communicate with teammates in multiplayers. No one wants to hear grainy or glitchy audio while in a high-stress situation as this can be seriously distracting at worst or annoying at least.
But that’s the problem with many cheap gaming headsets out there, sometimes they’ll have good speaker quality, but the microphone will suck. That’s why I love HyperX Cloud III so much. Both the wired and wireless versions offer great speaker quality and they both carry my voice clearly to my friends so I never have to worry about being that teammate.
The soft cushioning around the headband and earphones also makes them comfortable to wear for hours and hours. I never feel like there is too much pressure on my head either. Personally, I prefer the wireless version so I don’t have to worry about cables while playing on PC and the great thing about it is that it offers up to 120 hours of battery life so I don’t have to worry about charging the headset up all that often.
