I have alphas and I really like them but I got mine a few years ago and the quality has really gone down since HP bought them
r/HyperX • Cloud 3s or Cloud Alphas?? ->In my experience the hyperx cloud headset is one of the best options for the price just don't lose the detachable mic
r/XboxSupport • Advice on which headset to buy for Series X ->I'm voting HyperX. I have the Cloud Alpha and it is comfortable, the sound is really good, the mic is excellent and the battery lasts FOREVER. I used to have a logitech G930 and I had to recharge that almost every day, with my HyperX I can use it for WEEKS without having to charge it. Would definitely buy again.
r/GirlGamers • Good Gaming Headsets to Buy ->Brother, 7.1 surround is a gimmick. It actually makes the sound worse imo, and funnily enough I can pinpoint directions better with it off (cloud alpha S). From what I know, the driver is slightly better on cloud alpha, but it's not a drastic difference. As long as you have any good sounding headphones you'll do just fine with directions. in fact I highly recommend forgetting about "Gaming" headsets and getting good "audiophile" headphones, more often than not it'll actually be better for music AND for games I used to get called out for having wallhacks even when I was using the free Samsung buds that came with my phone, what you use doesn't matter as much as you think

r/HyperX • Which ones are really worth it? ->HyperX Cloud Alpha! Super sulit and tibay. Also maganda yung sound quality 💯
r/PHGamerPals • Gaming headset recommendations under 5k? ->I strongly advise against getting the Alphas, less comfortable than the Cloud 3s and I've had nothing but issues with crosstalk/sound bleeding, was an absolute nightmare and I've since then switched to Cloud 3 and they're amazing. Sure they have a slightly flatter sound plane than the Alphas but EQ makes up for it and I barely hear the difference now, mic is also way better.
r/HyperX • Cloud 3s or Cloud Alphas?? ->ch720n is fine but if you can stretch budget a bit, get a proper gaming headset, 720s are like a mid‑tier for a reason; you'll feel the difference in positional audio. 90% of us are on something like a HyperX or HyperX Cloud, not a budget Sony.
r/IndianGaming • What headphones are u all using ->I've had a pair of HyperX cloud alpha's for 6 or 7 years now, they still work flawlessly.
r/pcmasterrace • Another „Gaming Headset“ bites the dust, tired of overpriced/hyped headphones. ->The HyperX Cloud Alpha, I've had it for almost 3 years now, good mic and good sound
r/buildapc • Best budget (under £50) headset suggestion for gaming? ->[HyperX Cloud 3](https://amzn.eu/d/aO8C6jV), the HyperX Cloud Alpha Sellers didn't look legit tbh my bad for not double checking, but the HyperX Cloud 3s are just newer versions of the one I have and it's actually sold by Amazon
