The HyperX Cloud Flight 2 Wireless is a dual-wireless gaming headset that connects over a 2.4GHz USB-C dongle or Bluetooth 5.3, lights up with full-panel RGB, and lets you pull off its magnetic earcup plates to change the look. With the lighting off, HyperX rates it at up to 100 hours on 2.4GHz and up to 150 hours on Bluetooth. This listing is the Black version, HyperX part number B5VC4AA.

HyperX Cloud Flight 2 battery: the lighting decides
Battery life on the HyperX Cloud Flight 2 depends almost entirely on the RGB. HyperX tested at 50% volume with continuous playback: on 2.4GHz you get up to 100 hours with the LEDs off and up to 20 hours with the out-of-the-box lighting on. On Bluetooth it is up to 150 hours with LEDs off and up to 23 hours with lighting on. A full charge takes 3.5 hours over the included USB-C cable.
So the practical approach is simple: switch the lighting off for long weeks of play and turn it on when streaming or when the look matters. HyperX also notes that maximum battery capacity naturally decreases over time.
Two wireless modes and platform support
The 2.4GHz mode uses a small USB-C dongle, with a USB-C to USB-A adapter in the box for older PCs and consoles. Bluetooth 5.3 supports SBC and AAC for phones and tablets, and HyperX quotes a wireless range of up to 20 metres. There is also Instant Pair, which connects directly to select HP OMEN laptops without the dongle.
HyperX lists compatibility with PC, PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, Mac and mobile. Xbox is not on that list; HyperX sells a separate CloudX Flight 2 for Xbox. The HyperX Cloud Flight 2 plays at 24-bit and records the microphone at 16-bit.
Sound: angled 50mm drivers
Each earcup holds an angled 50mm driver tuned by HyperX. HyperX angles the driver towards the ear and tunes it specifically for game audio. HyperX rates the frequency response at 20Hz to 20kHz, sensitivity at 103 dB SPL/mW at 1kHz and total harmonic distortion at 2% or less. The HyperX NGENUITY software on Windows handles the lighting and its onboard profile.
Two microphones: boom and boomless
The detachable boom mic is a uni-directional electret condenser rated from 100Hz to 10kHz, the better choice for ranked comms and Discord. Remove it and a built-in omni-directional MEMS mic takes over, so you can use the HyperX Cloud Flight 2 on a train or for phone calls without a stick in front of your face. Mute and mic monitoring have their own control on the headset.
RGB, swappable plates and comfort
The full-panel RGB covers the earcups, and one lighting profile can be saved to the headset’s onboard memory through NGENUITY, so it keeps your colours on a console or another PC. The earcup plates attach magnetically and come off without tools, so you can change the design.
The headset weighs 0.74 lb, about 336 g, without the mic. It uses a plastic frame with steel sliders, memory foam cushions and earcups that rotate 90 degrees to rest around your neck or in a bag. Controls on the cups cover volume, a multifunction button, mic mute/monitoring and the wireless mode switch. HyperX also makes the headset in White and Lavender.
Who This Is Not For
Xbox players should choose the CloudX Flight 2 instead, because HyperX does not list Xbox for this model. If you want long battery life and RGB at the same time, 20 to 23 hours with lighting on is a real limit. HyperX does not list active noise cancellation or a 3.5 mm wired connection. And NGENUITY runs on Windows only, so Mac and console users cannot change the saved lighting profile without a Windows PC.
