This is the HyperX Cloud II, a wireless virtual surround sound headset from HyperX with large drivers, a bold durable design and 30 hours of battery life.

Highlights of the headset include a detachable microphone, strong aluminium frame and comfortable closed cup earcups which block out a decent amount of background noise.

Lowlights are the mic sounds rather compressed and the audio is rather tinny during gaming sessions. It lacks bass oddly, yet when listening to music it's fantastic. Also there's no 3.5mm jack and you can't use USB-C to USB-C for audio on Android via your phone. No Bluetooth connection.

Note I used the microphone for the voice over on this video. For the entirety of the video so you can hear what it's like including noise cancellation of key sounds.
