HyperX wants to play in the top league and launches the Cloud Orbit S, a gaming headset that amazes with its technology alone: it uses planar magnetic drivers that require an additional battery - even though the headset itself is wired. This membrane design ensures very differentiated bass and an overall immaculate sound. In combination with the 3D mode, you get a virtual surround headset that enables the exact localisation of sounds - a clear advantage in competitive gaming. The manufacturer allows you to coect in three different ways: USB-A, USB-C or 3.5 mm jack - all in the form of a detachable cable in each case.If you are looking for a headset for VR gaming, the Cloud Orbit S is also suitable for this, thanks to its head-tracking function. This is because you can freeze the audio source in its spatial orientation so that turning your head ensures that the system translates these movements realistically - as if you were sitting in front of the source. You can flexibly adjust the headband. Thanks to memory foam padding, the headset is very comfortable, even for longer sessions.
