What customers say about "Key Specs"

HyperX Cloud Flight Gaming Headset

Big bonus points for the fact that the mic is detachable.
Headphones free from annoying cords. And have detachable microphone.
As I don't need mic, I happy that I can detach it and concentrate on gameplay.
I like detachable mic so it is not in my face if I am not talking and the flexibility of it so I can make fine adjustments if I need to.
You may not like detachable mic option if you are prone to losing small objects.

SteelSeries Arctis 7 (2019 Edition) Lossless Wireless Gaming Headset with DTS

I live with my friend, and we both spend hours playing games like Overwatch. I can have these headphones on, and barely hear him talk.
With music, a game, or perhaps recording music, you're hardly going to be distracted from outside noises.
Great noise-cancelling ability. It's not advertised as noise-canceling but perform it well.
The headband is made out of "sheet metal" and an adjustable strap.
It fits my head nicely, and has some room for adjustment but not much, but still perfect for me.

SteelSeries Arctis 7 (2019 Edition) Lossless Wireless Gaming Headset with DTS

This headset doesn't connect to the Nintendo Switch wirelessly.
The sound is beautiful for all genres a little bass heavy in music unless you like that kind of thing.
The ear pads are like memory foam and ridiculously comfortable.
This headset sounds nice. I have not played with the EQ, but I may try to turn up the lows a little bit and get amazing sound.
These units produce massive amounts of distortion. I cannot believe how bad these are at volumes over 50%.

What customers say about "Features"

HyperX Cloud Flight Gaming Headset

The battery life is really amazing. Fully charged its last for 30 hours.
The volume control on the right side is great. Very nice and handy feature!
They are really comfortable for long gaming sessions and have awesome battery life to keep up with them.
Even with glasses, they are still very comfortable, which is the main problem I have with most gaming headsets.
This headset is it heats up after consecutive hours of use, I find I can play about 2.5 hours of games before I notice it.

SteelSeries Arctis 7 (2019 Edition) Lossless Wireless Gaming Headset with DTS

The Arctis 7 does not have noticeable latency, nor did any of the other gaming headsets I tried.
Long battery life for me. I've been playing God of War all weekend and haven't had an issue with running out of charge
DTS v2 works very well, especially when you adjust the game's specific audio to match.
The volume roller is extremely easy to accidentally adjust. I mean, unbelievably easy.
Can't have surround sound and voice chat both running wirelessly via bluetooth.
