Model overview based on user reviews
The HyperX Cloud Alpha S headphones are highly regarded for their comfortable design and good noise insulation, making them suitable for extended gaming sessions. Users appreciate the detachable microphone and the option to adjust bass directly on the earcups. However, the headphones are heavily dependent on a high-quality sound card to deliver their full potential, as the included USB sound card is often criticized for degrading sound quality and introducing delays. The 7.1 virtual surround sound is noted to be more of a gimmick, providing a hollow experience rather than true immersion. Despite these drawbacks, the headphones are praised for their durability and solid build, with many users finding them a worthwhile investment if paired with the right audio setup. Some users have experienced issues with the microphone quality and the flimsy cable, but overall, the Cloud Alpha S is recommended for gamers who prioritize comfort and are willing to invest in additional audio equipment.

Well, look, if you just want to have fun and play for 4-5 hours maximum, then take it. 1. Sound. It's awesome. 2. Shape. These are VERY comfortable headphones. 3. Price. Carl, for this kind of money you won't get anything more durable and long-lasting. 4. Durability. I personally know 3 people who have had them for a long time and they're still completely intact. 1. RESISTANCE... if you plug them into the phone, the sound will be at most like from a bucket. 2. Spare earpads (they're still crappy) use HyperX Cloud Alpha S few months |
Sound, build quality, ease of use. I chose the headphones for a very long time and painfully - I looked and reviewed a bunch of reviews and sat on various forums and in the end I decided to take a risk and take these headphones. I didn't make a mistake, although I had some doubts. Many people complained about quiet sound and problems with the sound card, etc. I don’t know what kind of problems they had, but everything worked fine for me right away without any problems. The sound is simply amazing and the microphone works well, doesn’t duplicate anything, etc. everything is great. I don’t have any cool sound card, I use the one built into the motherboard. No use HyperX Cloud Alpha S few months |
Great sound, better than regular Cloud Sound, solid body There were conflicts between the built-in and local audio card. It was done by manual setting.  Anton Gilnev: use HyperX Cloud Alpha S few months |
