Our Verdict
HyperX Cloud 2/Cloud II
Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset
The Logitech G PRO X WIRELESS LIGHTSPEED Gaming Headset are better gaming headphones than the HyperX Cloud 2/Cloud II. While both headphones are equally comfortable and have similarly great boom microphone performances, the Logitech have a wireless design and a more neutral default sound profile, which some users may prefer. Their companion software also offers a graphic EQ and presets so that you can adjust their sound to your liking, and they have low wireless latency via their dongle. However, the HyperX are a suitable choice if you like to game while using a wired connection.
