best wireless gaming headset with charging stand

The top band is thick and has soft padding underneath.

The Cloud line is always touted for comfort and despite the hefty battery this still definitely fits the bill. If you've ever wanted to know what it sounds like to have a Cacodemon suddenly show up and whisper sweet blah-things into very specifically your left ear, then these cans absolutely deliver. When playing games, the directional sound is also very nice: It was easy to locate hidden batteries by directional beeps in Deep Rock Galactic and Doom Eternal becomes properly terrifying. Music sounds amazing and these are definitely one of the better gaming headsets we've used to listen to music on, with instruments and sound layers being clearly separated. It's absolutely loud enough but you can listen to it at full volume and still be fairly comfortable. A lot of that has to do with the volume you're running the headset at, and volume is probably the only real complaint. That impressive battery life is, of course, a best-case scenario. A full workday listening to music and it still said 80% a week of gaming and music and it didn't even reach a 50% battery level. Out of the box, our review sample was reporting having about 80% charge, so we decided to leave it there to see how well that held. This offers up to 300 hours of battery life while in wireless mode, and yet the Cloud Alpha Wireless is still relatively light and comfortable. We all love it on the team and the biggest drawcard for this headset is the huge battery.

The HyperX Cloud Alpha is perhaps the most praised thing to exist on this site and the wireless version is by far the best wireless gaming headset you can buy. ❌ You need a high quality microphone: Compared to the rest of the headset, the Cloud Alpha's mic is merely okay and isn't suited for streaming at a professional level.
