Save up to 42% on the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless, the headset whose battery will outlast your interest in most games

Estimated reading time: 1 minute

It’s pricier than most gaming headsets, but the HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is a belter. I know because I have one, and have given it primary ear-tickling duty for long enough that it’s got all the wear and tear you can probably see in that picture up there. Also, there’s good news on the money front: it’s currently dropping in the Amazon Spring Sale, especially in the UK, where it’s down to a very agreeable £110. That’s 42% off its RRP, and an awful lot less then it was when I got mine.

The equivalent US deal isn’t quite so enthusiastic with the price shears, though $200 to $143 is still a decent cut on a headset that’s supremely comfortable and richer than most on powerful, bassy sound output. The real reason to get one of these, mind, is its borderline sci-fi battery life. HyperX say a full charge yields 300 hours of uptime, but I’m certain mine has managed more than that. Can’t even remember the last time I charged it, really. I wanna say… Novemberrrrr?
