The HyperX Cloud II Wireless headset sports an aluminum frame with an adjustable headband, pliable leatherette, and plush memory foam. It also has earcup controls for volume, muting the mic, activating mic monitoring, and 7.1 surround sound to improve positional audio.
The headset is compatible with PC, PS4, and Nintendo Switch. It comes with a noise-canceling detachable microphone designed to reduce background noise and the effects of plosive sounds. The flexible microphone includes built-in mic monitoring, an LED mic mute indicator, and an optional foam pop filter.
