HyperX’s Cloud Revolver S headset nearly does it all

HyperX has built up a reputation for having some of the better gaming headsets on the market. The gaming division of Kingston has won over a lot of fans with its Cloud and Cloud II headsets, and now the company has an updated version of its high-end Revolver for people looking to get some more features. The HyperX Cloud Revolver S is $150, and it comes bundled with a dedicated, plug-and-play Dolby 7.1 surround sound USB dongle. That makes it about $100 less expensive than some similarly decked-out headsets on the market, like the Sennheiser PC 373D. It works great with PC as well as PlayStation 4.

But how does the Revolver S stack up in real-world use? Well, it’s a comfy, high-quality experience with only a couple of shortcomings.
