HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 - Wireless Gaming Headset

The HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 Wireless Gaming Headset is designed for extended gaming sessions with immersive audio, flexible wireless connectivity, and advanced customization. Up to 250 hours of battery life can be provided in 2.4GHz wireless mode, while up to 125 hours can be achieved when simultaneous connectivity is being used. With battery life designed to minimize charging interruptions, long gaming sessions, competitive matches, streaming, and everyday entertainment can be enjoyed with fewer interruptions.

High-fidelity gaming audio is delivered through multi-layer 53mm Dual Chamber Drivers, where distortion is reduced and deep bass, detailed mids, and crisp highs can be reproduced. Spatial Audio can also be configured through HyperX NGENUITY, helping in-game sounds and directional audio cues to be positioned with greater accuracy. Simultaneous 2.4GHz and Bluetooth connectivity allows game audio to be received from a PC or console while calls, music, or other audio can be handled from a second Bluetooth device.

An included reprogrammable RGB Base Station is provided as a central audio control hub. Customizable RGB lighting, programmable buttons and macros, onboard controls, and seamless device switching are supported. Long-session comfort is provided through breathable microfiber earpads, a memory foam headband, and 90° rotating earcups, while durability is reinforced through a stainless steel headband and aluminum forks.
