Our Verdict
Logitech G533 Wireless
HyperX Cloud Flight
The Logitech G533 Wireless are slightly better wireless gaming headphones than the HyperX Cloud Flight. The Logitech look and feel a bit better built, though they don't feel nearly as stable on the head. The sound profile of the Logitech is slightly better balanced, and their much better companion software gives access to a graphic EQ. They also have virtual soundstage features, though we don't test for this. On the other hand, the microphone of the HyperX performs much better overall, and they leak quite a bit less sound. They also have a much longer battery life, though the latency of the Logitech is a bit lower.
