Hyper X, the gaming division of memory manufacturer Kingston, just launched the Cloud S Wireless headset into shops today.
We’ve seen some seriously good headsets at Gamesapce but today we’re a bit excited. The new Hyper X Cloud Flight S Wireless isn’t just the latest in the Hyper X range, it’s another huge leap for a peripheral franchise that is widely regarded as one of the best in the market. Taking the quality that comes with the Hyper X Cloud series, the Cloud S Wireless incorporates some impressive specifications with no wires in sight. Freestanding Qi-wireless charging, 2.4Ghz connectivity, and up to 30 hours of battery life mean you’re going to need a seriously old school raid wing to outlast the latest cans from Hyper X.
As we’ve emphasized, Hyper X has a pedigree for great audio accessories and the wireless extras come alongside the following solid build.

the gaming-grade design sports a set of closed-cup ears and some generous plush padding around your hearing holes. It is already good to go on the Pcc, PS4 and PS4 Pro and can be configured using the Hyperx NGENUITY software. As usual, I’m pinning for a pair of these but I might have to save a tiny bit as they do come in at £149.99 / €169.99 MSRP. However, I wouldn’t blame you if you head over to the official HyperX website to take a look at the Hyperx Cloud S Wireless too.
