The HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black are wired gaming earbuds that plug into USB-C instead of a headphone jack. That digital connection lets HyperX build in virtual surround sound and a noise-reducing MEMS microphone, with an inline button to switch surround on and off. They use 14mm drivers, come with four ear-tip sizes and a hard carrying case, and include a USB-C to USB-A extension for PCs.

HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black: USB-C, Not 3.5mm
The HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black connect through a 90° angled USB-C plug running at USB 2.0 full speed, with 16-bit and 24-bit audio. Because the earbuds carry their own audio chip, they work the same on a Switch, a USB-C phone, a handheld PC or a laptop, and there are no batteries to charge and no wireless dropouts.
For a desktop with only USB-A ports, the included USB-C to USB-A extension cable (1.3 m) reaches the back of the tower. HyperX says the built-in DPS keeps audio in sync with on-screen action, which matters in rhythm games and shooters.
Virtual Surround Sound at the Press of a Button
The S adds a built-in virtual surround system. A button on the inline control turns the virtual surround on for open-world games and films, and off when you want straight stereo for music or competitive play. On the HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black it works on any device the earbuds plug into, without software on the PC.
Sound comes from 14mm drivers tuned by HyperX, with a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, 106.5 dB SPL/mW sensitivity at 1 kHz and total harmonic distortion of 2% or less.
A Clearer Microphone for Team Chat
The mic on the HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black is an omnidirectional MEMS capsule with noise reduction, so teammates hear your voice rather than a café, a car or a busy majlis. Inline controls cover volume, a multifunction button, the surround toggle and microphone mute, so you can silence the mic without reaching for the device.
Fit, Case and the Black Finish
Four silicone ear-tip sizes, XS to L, come in the box, with the medium pair fitted. A good seal is what gives earbuds their bass and keeps outside noise out, so it is worth trying the sizes before a long session. A hardshell case protects the HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black in a backpack or a Switch bag.
Black is the low-key option: it looks like everyday earphones on the metro or in an office call, and the cable and tips do not show marks or dye from pockets the way lighter colours can. It also suits a black Switch or a black handheld and laptop setup.
Where They Work
HyperX lists PC, Nintendo Switch and console controllers in its compatibility, and designs the HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black for mobile, handheld and PC gaming. A phone or tablet needs a USB-C port that supports USB audio. Devices with only a 3.5mm jack or a Lightning port will need a different pair.
Who This Is Not For
Skip the HyperX Cloud Earbuds III S Black if your phone, controller or console only has a 3.5mm headphone jack, since there is no 3.5mm plug. They are wired, so they are not for workouts where a cable gets in the way, and HyperX does not list a water or sweat rating. They have no active noise cancellation; isolation depends on the ear-tip seal. And while they work with a USB-C phone, using them blocks the phone’s charging port.
