HyperX Cloud Alpha vs Logitech G Pro X - equally awesome gaming headsets?
192This is a video to compare the @hyperx Cloud Alpha and @LogitechG Pro X wired.
HyperX Cloud Alpha:
This is a great wired gaming headset that's comfortable and has some decent passive noise cancellation thanks to memory foam leatherette ear cushions. It has a lightweight design and a decent clamping force too, so it ticks a lot of boxes. With a dual-chamber setup and 50mm drivers this headset offers great sound and a decent value for money too.
