HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 Wireless (Brown Box)

HyperX Cloud Alpha 2 Wireless is a wireless gaming headset rated for up to 250 hours of battery on 2.4GHz. It connects over low-latency 2.4GHz through its RGB base station and over Bluetooth 5.2 at the same time, so you can game on your PC or console while taking calls or playing music from your phone. A 3.5 mm wired connection is there too.

Inside are 53 mm multi-layer, dual-chamber drivers, with spatial audio through HyperX NGENUITY. The desktop base station adds programmable buttons and macros, device switching, onboard audio controls and customisable RGB, while the headset itself has a stainless steel headband, aluminium forks, microfibre ear pads and 90° rotating earcups.

This is a brown-box unit: it comes in plain packaging instead of the HyperX retail box.
