ASUS ROG Delta II
Score: 85/100Rankings
The HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless is a PC-focused gaming headset featuring dual-chamber 50 mm drivers and an unprecedented 300-hour battery life. Its drawbacks include the lack of Bluetooth connectivity and a microphone that can capture background noise, with occasional range-related dropouts. It is ideal for PC gamers who prioritize ultra-long endurance and comfort over wireless versatility.
The ASUS ROG Delta II is a lightweight 318 g gaming headset offering tri-mode connectivity, 50 mm titanium drivers, and an impressive 110-hour battery life. However, it lacks active noise cancellation and a foldable design, and its RGB lighting can drain the battery. It targets competitive gamers who need long sessions and multi-device flexibility.
