Professional reviewers praise the Cloud II for its negligible latency, comfortable build, and neutral sound signature that works well across gaming, music, and chat. However, they criticize its lack of active noise isolation, bulkier chassis, and occasional sharpness in audio, noting that the headset is best suited for stationary gaming rather than on-the-go use.
Users highlight the headset's comfort and clear sound, but note the lack of active noise cancellation and bulkiness as drawbacks.
