I've had these for a couple years now. They're okay. I used them for mixing music at first, now i attached a mic and use it for that and games.I admire how flexibly they move, really a premium feature, but personally it gets on my nerves half rhe time however it helps me adjust how comfortable i am easily. I've used these with a shaved head and with my hair grown out. These can give me a headache when i have hair. Sometimes I've worn earbuds while wearing these and the earbuds fit as if they weren't there under the ear cups. The ear cup cushions are fine, no complaints. Head band is pretty comfortable when i don't have hair.I can hear everything outside the headphones with ease. No noise canceling. Sound is clear and in my opinion nostly flat which i like because i like to do my own EQ, i like bass but i will boost it myself, you know what i am saying?Build quality seams good, i don't abuse my things but they seam sturdy enough. The cable that came was already messed up when i first used it. Had to angle it right and couldn't touch it or it would cut out. My 200lb body fell asleep rolling over these so like i said sturdy enough. Also the finish holds up spotlessly against tape and glue, i used lots of both and wow they still look brand new.Overall i wouldn't recommend against them but i wouldnt hype these up like the internet does. Yeah i would recommend these to someone who wants quality i suppose. I was actually starting this review a bit critical but as I've gone on, yeah these are pretty good.

I have never owned a HyperX Cloud headset. I bought the stinger after watching and reading other reviews. Now here's my review.Design: A sleek classy not flashy design. Its a muted flat black look that isn't cheesy looking.Build Quality: For $50, you know its going to be all plastic. This thing doesn't feel cheap at all. Light weight solid construction with No Rattling! Which is more than I can say for a lot of other headsets that are priced $50 and up to $100. Even the ear cups have a smooth swivel.Comfort: The Stinger has a memory foam leatherette ear cups that are very comfortable and surprising not sweaty. The head clamping force is fine. I have no problem wearing this headset for hours, 5 or 6 hours.Mic: This is the one area the Stinger could be a little better. The noise cancellation works well and the mic up to mute is a great feature. The hang up is the boom mic does feel cheap and it's not very flexible. Also the sound quality, while not bad at all, could be a little better. I can't hear myself either which is just a preference. I like to hear the volume of my voice. These are really minor issues for a headset at this price.Sound: This is a real strong point. These things sound really good. The highs are crisp. The mids are distinguishable and not muddy. The bass is maybe not as punchy as some headsets, but its just enough. Music, games, and movies all sound very good. I was really very surprised. I expected some white noise when songs weren't playing, muddy mids, tragic sounding bass. I was pleasantly surprised. Now, these do not have 7.1 surround sound. You will never miss it, see youtube virtual barber shop.This headset is better than a lot of headsets priced around $100. It's an overachiever. If you are in the market for a budget headset, try the HyperX Stinger. Your games will sound great.

One word: A-freakin'-mazing. Before I bought these, I was suffering from Builtinspeakeritis. I couldn't tell left from right, high from low. It affected every aspect of my life. Music seemed dull and lifeless. I watched an episode of Tiger King and found it pedestrian. My life was so incomplete that, when I went out, people looked at me like I was a nobody... if they looked at me at all.This set of speakers changed everything. Sure, the sound is tinny, and they don't get much louder than a mouse fart. But now when I'm watching COPS, I can tell whether the perp is being chased from off-screen left or off-screen right. I find myself thumping along in the tub to Chumbawamba. And Zoom meetings for work? Well, let's just say that these days I hear the voice of Renee from Accounting in my dreams.Owning these speakers has totally changed how people respond to me, too. Ladies smile at me at the grocery store now. I mean, I can't actually see them smiling, since they're wearing masks to avoid COVID-19, but I can just tell that this time the checkout girl isn't going to report me to the manager.Before buying these, I had tried everything: $100/hour online counseling with a surprisingly attractive Eastern European therapist; blue pills from a registered pharmacy in Uruguay; even subzero naked yoga (don't ask). It turns out, I could have spared my wallet (and my genitals) the pain. All I needed was this inexpensive pair of speakers—with its blindingly bright blue LED and its complete absence of bass—to get me back in the game. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to find out more about that hottie Carole Baskin on Tiger King.

These headphones are, literally, the best I've ever purchased in my 18 years of life. I can't put it better than that. I implore you to make this investment.Music is, and always has been, a massive factor in my day-to-day life. Naturally, I've purchased numerous brands/models of both earbuds and headphones. Some sounds were brilliant, some weren't. This pair arrived just yesterday, and I've been wearing them non-stop. In the short time I've owned them, I can conclude they're the best headphones I've ever had the honor of purchasing. I'm not inexperienced and/or ignorant, they're just that good.I listen almost exclusively to rock music. Such bands include Metallica, Pantera, Tool, Alice in Chains, Linkin Park, Pink Floyd, and Staind. If you're a fan of any of these guys, you're likely to love these headphones.The Guitar- Clear and refreshing. It feels as though the sound is emanating from all around me, not just the speakers.The Bass- Thick, deep, and powerful. People believe a pounding bass should be the focus of quality headphones--I disagree. The bass in these headphones is strong, but doesn't overwhelm. Ironically, the pounding, overwhelming bass people love is a characteristic of low-quality earbuds.The Drums- Punchy and intense. So clear, it's almost like you're standing in a recording studio while someone plays.The Vocals- Perfectly balanced with every other instrument.Lastly, I've read a great deal about how uncomfortable these headphones are. For me, someone with an above-average head size, the snugness is negligible, let alone a deal-breaker.These headphones are beyond what you'd expect for the price. If I didn't know better, I'd say they were along the 400 dollar spectrum.

The battery life on this is great and I've yet to actually run of power before charging. And, don't have to charge it for several days. I'm not using continuously but I use it quite often. The standby mode really holds up for weeks! The bluetooth range is really good compared to my older BT 4 device (4 feet,effectively). This one stays connected over 15 feet. The reliability of the connection is awesome. It's also loud enough for me as I ride my bike on the streets, generally. The audio fidelity is decent.Some people reported discomfort with the ear piece. Initially, after and hour of wearing, I felt ear soreness, too, however, I found that if I twist it a little (point it up or down), it feels just fine and I can wear it for many hours.Cons:1) I find that it's hard to slip on to my ear with one hand. The ear hook is set up for either one ear or the other, but not both (you must flip it to use with the other ear).2) generally, same gripe I have with any type of device like this. It's small and black and I tend to misplace it a lot. I wish the manufactures would invent a method of finding my device with some sort of audible beep. I've come up with a method myself to find it. I just play some extra loud sound through it (as I generally have it on standby; a big plus that the unit can last on standby for weeks.)3) general for these types of device. I wish there was a vibrate feature. Sometimes I have it hanging on my shirt and wish there was a way it can vibrate if there's a message or phone call (which is the way I usually used the neck headsets I had in the past).All in all, I highly recommend this thing. I've been very pleased with it!

firstly, i expect theres a whole bunch of fake reviews on here. This is a fair summary of my experience so far. i bought these purely because my beats hurt my head after an hour and i tend to wear them all day when working (designer).SOUND - amazing for the money. I thought my beats sounded great and partly down to marketing i guess thought i was wearing the gold standard. was very wrong, the sound stage and clarity on these makes my beats feel muddy, and stuffy. The bass is punchy, doesnt distort cranked up, and mids and highs are so clear. i can hear things i couldnt on my beats and everything just sounds better.COMFORT - had them on for a few hours now, no fatigue, the main culprit for me is the headband, and these are very spongy and no pain at all. really impressed.QUALITY - dont feel like they could take a lot of abuse. they arent awful build wise, but you can see where they've managed to get the price down. be weary of the rotating hinges, feels like a weak point. not maybe rugged enough to last the distance being thrown around in a studio, or lugged around in a bag a lot. not a problem for me, they just sit on my desk and i think if you dont treat them rough then they are perfectly adequate. but hard to comment on that long term. for 40 quid though, even if they only lasted a year or so id be happy with that.USE CASE- these are perfect for consuming music casually. sound is incredible. did a comparison with my beats listening to some aphex tracks, you can hear everything much more clearly, and the bass is just as rich, but without the muddiness. I wouldnt recommend these for music production, the frequency isnt flat enough, they are specifically designed to just enjoy music through. probably fine for monitoring but not mixing / mastering.OVERALL - cant go wrong for 40 quid, they look good too which is a bonus.

For the price this is a solid choice. I am a software engineer who is now working from home. I had a gaming headset I was using but it was really pulling my hair out, and looked a little unprofessional. I decided to go for an earpiece instead and found this one.I have been using this for about three weeks, 40 hours a week. Here are my takeaways.Pros:Battery life is great. I charge it overnight and I never get a low battery warning. As a test I left it on to see how long it lasted and got roughly 10 hours before I was warned.Sound quality is also great. I use Zoom and Google hangouts and nobody has complained.Mic quality is great. I have to record demos and my sound is very clear.It looks really professional. I've had several complements.The case and array of earbuds was a nice touch.Cons:So you may have noticed I took a star off. Below is why.The earpiece could use some work when it comes to comfort. My ears both have scabs where it has rubbed them raw. This is alleviated some by being able to switch ears but still, it is not fun. You can pull up on the ear part so it isnt right on the ear and that helps some. I have to give my ears breaks throughout the day from wearing it. I think a little piece of foam would fix it.Dual pairing does not work for me. I followed the instructions and it's still an either or. I was a little bummed since I like to listen to podcasts from my phone while I work on my laptop. I was hoping to be able to switch seamlessly.Even with the cons I will continue to use this. It's a great value and so much better than a headset. Just know your ears may hurt a bit after awhile.

This is a superbly designed, practical, innovative and attractive device for mounting a smartphone or tablet in your car. But be sure to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL, which clearly spells out, albeit in the teeniest, tiniest print, all the do's and don'ts of attaching the two components of the kit. More importantly, the user is specifically warned NOT to put the magnet near credit cards, computer hard drives, pacemakers, floppy discs, cassette tapes, video tapes, CRT (picture tube) TVs, monitors and displays. It will wipe the magnetic strip on a credit card clean of its operative info and cause varying degrees of damage to the other items listed. Smartphones and tablets are not affected, however.Don't be fooled by the size of the small magnet that you attach to the back of your mobile device. It's powerful. My iPhone 6s, wearing a Mophie Juice Pack Plus is almost 10 oz, and is held so tightly into the metal ball, that it takes a tiny bit of effort to remove it from the mount, nothing extreme, but enough to let you know that when joined together, the attachment is very secure.Some people have commented that the magnet affects the compass and or the GPS capability of their device. I've had no such problem with either of those features. Not in iOS Maps, nor Google Maps, nor Waze nor the iOS Compass app.Interestingly, the small, shiny steel 1" diameter ball and mount, with my iPhone removed, has a simple, attractive elegance that makes all the claw-like/vise-grip phone and tablet car mounts look gross and obtrusive.My first thought, after installing the kit and realizing how well it works and looks, was "why didn't someone think of this before?" Then it occurred to me that they most likely did, and I'm just late to the table.Best idea, both in design and practicality, of any mobile device car mount I've used or researched.
