The HyperX Cloud III Wireless gaming headset just came out in the summer, but it hasn’t gone on sale at all until very recently. The wireless headset for PC, PlayStation, and the Nintendo Switch is selling for $149.99 ($20 off) at Amazon and direct from HyperX. It may look a lot like the last-gen model, but the Cloud III Wireless has made some huge gains in the battery life department. It offers up to 120 hours of use with its 2.4GHz wireless dongle — a dongle, mind you, that also has improved range and a USB-C plug with included USB-A adapter.

Of course, the Cloud II was being heavily discounted for a long while, so it’s good to see the new Cloud III is starting to dip a toe in the deals pool.
The HyperX Cloud III Wireless is a 2.4GHz wireless headset for PC, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch that sports an extra-long 120-hour battery life, large 53mm drivers, USB-C charging, and a detachable boom mic with built-in pop filter. It also continues the Cloud’s legacy of a relatively low weight and excellent comfort.
