The HyperX Cloud II is one of my favorite all-round headsets so I'm excited to learn HyperX presented an updated model at Gamescom. It's called the HyperX Cloud III Wireless Gaming Headset and the new $169.99 model largely sticks to the familiar design of its predecessor.

The new model has slightly better frequency response, higher impedance, and a greatly enhanced battery life. Whereas the specification sheet of the Cloud II Wireless lists a battery life of 30 hours, the new model promises a whopping 120 hours of operation on a single charge!
