Extremely comfortable to wear, thanks to suspension headband and highly articulate hinges on the ear cups, Plush, thick leatherette covered earcups, Value is impressive
Suspension system is a little noisy, Some may find the mids in the audio slightly lacking
From the moment I opened the box, I was instantly met with the strong impression of high quality. I generally try not to let first impressions play too heavy a role in my reviews, but this product screams quality right when you take it out of the box.Fir...
Comfortable suspension-band design, Solid sound for its price
Metal band has a tendency to reverberate when touched, Inline controls are as middling as the standard Cloud line
The biggest problem with the HyperX Cloud line is that it hit such a high point the first time around. Great performance, cheap price—it's hard to top that. The HyperX Cloud Revolver isn't a bad headset—it's more comfortable than the original Hyper...

The HyperX Cloud Revolver has a focused identity as a durable and comfortable headset for competitive FPS gaming. So far, it is the headset with the best positional audio we have heard and reviewed. Since human hearing fares poorly at determining the dire...

Abstract: I'm not a huge connoisseur of gaming headsets, having my Turtle Beach X12s for the past few years. Even then I use them with my PC more than I do with my Xbox 360. I've never bought a new headset as the X12s work for what I need them to do. However, I rec...
Slightly Below Average Microphone Quality, Metal Headband Ringing Issue
The stitching and embossing on the headband looked great. I also liked the sculptured ear cup with HyperX logos and red highlights. The around ear closed cup design offers good isolation from ambient room sounds. The headband's range of adjustment does no...

Clear, crisp sound, Microphone quality is fantastic, Headband is virtually unnoticeable,
Abstract: Among the pearls of wisdom the late Notorious B.I.G. let flow was a track titled “Mo Money, Mo Problems.” In it, Biggie essentially says that with success comes new problems. That's somewhat the position HyperX finds itself in with its recently released C...
Following up a headset like the Cloud/Cloud II is a tough thing to do. Especially when you are a company like Kingston/HyperX who is still working on cementing their brand in the gaming headphone market. The thing to keep in mind though is HyperX product...
When a company tries to improve on an already-successful product, it runs the risk of unbalancing the formula that led to that product's success in the first place. The HyperX Cloud Revolver's design departs from the already-popular Cloud II in a variety...
Soft, comfortable ear cups, Clear mids, regardless of volume, Directional drivers work very well, Inline remote (audio control box), Lightweight, Durable, Multidevice support, Detachable microphone, Circumaural, closed back design
Tinny sound during music/video playback, Medium sized headband, not comfortable for larger heads due to depth limit, Steel frame very noisy and translates directly to the cans, Microphone not sensitive enough and subject to explosions and popping, Price
In general, gaming headsets fall short of actual headphones in terms of sound. The HyperX Cloud Revolver is no different in that aspect. But as a gaming headset, the HyperX Cloud Revolver performs well, providing good directional sound clarity and crisp...
