Hyper X Cloud drone. HyperX Cloud Drone gaming headset. Test of the ESET NOD32 Parental Control program: How the parental control system works

What do we want to get out of a good gaming headset? Of course, accurate transmission of sounds for correct positioning in games, a good microphone so that you can easily communicate with the team and win, and, well, simply, the headset must sit well on your head. Today we are testing the budget gaming headset HyperX Cloud Drone and we are confident that it is within our capabilities.

Packaging and accessories

HyperX Cloud Drone is packaged in a simple box made of thin cardboard with a clear insert so that you can immediately appreciate the size, and nothing more is needed from the box. The headset itself is carefully fixed in a plastic lining. In addition to the headphones themselves, the set includes a two-meter adapter from one “jack” to two for a microphone and headphones.

External appearance, ceramic elements and ergonomics

The HyperX Cloud Drone was victorious over the rocks of the aggressive black and red color combination. I want to know - there's not a lot of red here, except for the HyperX logos on the cups and the soft insert on the earphones.

In general, no matter what the gaming headset is, it has a modest design. There is no backlighting here, no uncut, cut form. First of all, gaming devices must be careful to give that very second advantage, which will lead to victory and this is why HyperX Cloud Drone has everything. On the left ear cup there is an invisible microphone on a small hearing aid, and in order to turn it on, you need to lift it up. The right cup has a thickness regulator. The remote control of the headset is disabled and turned - this is a great advantage. If you can forget where you hang the remote control and not know it, if you can hang on the dart, then forget where your ears are.

The frame of the headphones is made of plastic. Adjustment for a long time now makes it possible to fit the headphones practically on any head, otherwise I would lose them a little too much. The HyperX Cloud Drone is only 220 grams, and I can sit quietly in them for about 3 years, after just drying my ears thoroughly and I can move on. This indicates the closed design of the cups and the ear pads and the screen protector.
I think it’s a good idea to get caught up in this kind of stuff, as if it were a collection. And the HyperX Cloud Drone is even better, let’s say, it smells much better than my Logitech G430, and the headset itself has a wire that can easily be damaged, it’s about twice as good as Logitch G430 and the axis here I understand That HyperX does not compromise on the head and does not sacrifice reliability for low performance.

Sound

Of course, it is important to remember about the clarity of the sound of both the speakers and the microphone; the technical characteristics of the headphones are as follows:

• Type: monitor, closed
• Frequency range: 20-20000 Hz
• Sound pressure characteristics: 94+/-3 dB Sv. vice/mW at 1 kHz
• Impedance (op): 24 Ohm
• Drivers: 40 mm, dynamic

Technical characteristics of the microphone:

• Element: electret condenser microphone
• Straightness diagram: single straight, with noise reduction
• Frequency range: 50-10000 Hz
• Type: unidirectional, multidirectional
• Sensitivity: -45+/-3 dB

For the rich, these characteristics have become simply numbers, for which I can’t help but sing. And yet, I’ll tell you about the sound on the headphones. What I really did well was the transmission of low frequencies. The bass comes out brightly and bitingly, as a result it sounds even more effective, and if we talk about World of Tanks, then the effect is conveyed even better, as much as it is a great projectile.

Even if the bass is well tuned, the mids and high frequencies do not suffer so much. And, for example, in a very active game of Overwatch, where there are even a lot of sounds, the stench does not turn into porridge, or in a vegetable stew, as you understand. All around the sounds will be deprived of their goodness. Apparently, the positioning accuracy of these headphones is high, it’s immediately clear where to run, which means you won’t miss your opponent at an important moment in the battle.

Another important moment that few people have lost their respect for. These are ideal headphones for smartphones and tablets: their impedance is only 24 ohms and you can pump them up to greater volume on any mobile device. So the HyperX Cloud Drone itself has a meter-long cord that won’t lie under your feet while playing on your smartphone for an hour, I spent more than one year in these headphones during races with the “new” Asphalt Extreme and in my favorite World of Tanks: Blitz.

Another attribute of a good gaming headset is, of course, a good microphone. You can rate the brightness of the recording lower by recording a Windows recording using standard methods without any extra effort, but I recommend turning it down, so that it turns out to be quiet, as well as a little background noise. The transmission of voice, in general, is not bad, it is not disreputable to speak to your teammates.

Shopping on the Internet: how to shop safely

Why are more and more people looking for better purchases of goods and services online? In advance, we want to spare us! With the development of online trading, buyers have the opportunity to compare prices online, check discounts and choose the best offers from others. The first axis of the stench is already moving with great speed from offline stores to online: according to GfK data for 2018, 35% of Russians wanted to buy goods on the Internet at least once in a week. These villains do not sleep and follow us - the stinks have “come to their senses” and have started stealing on a grand scale: stealing bank card data and important electronic files.

The HyperX brand is well known to Russian traders. This has a lot to do with several lines of high-performance RAM modules, as well as single-use SSD drives. The American company Kingston Technology, which belongs to this brand, besides others, produces even worse gaming headsets. I would like to tell you about one of the new HyperX headsets called Cloud Drone.

Compared to other models of the Cloud series, the HyperX Cloud Drone headset boasts an even affordable price. In Russia, the gadget is already on sale for 15 rubles and costs more than 4,000 rubles. Comparing the price with other models of HyperX headsets, we can say that this is practically free. If you have been thinking for a long time about getting a clear “gamer level” headset from a popular speaker, and even if you are on a budget, I strongly recommend that you read this review and make the right decisions for yourself.

Traditionally, I begin my review from the packaging. The box with the gadget may reveal a lot about both the device itself and the manufacturer’s instructions to buyers. This version comes with a cardboard box with a clear plastic insert. From the text information on the front surface of the package we can find the following information: the official guarantee is threefold, the headset is certified for use with the TeamSpeak add-on, and is also compatible with the latest gaming software platforms, including PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Wii U. Cloud Drone can be used as a headset for a smartphone, although it will look rather stupid.

The back of the box contains three information about the key features of the headset. We’ll talk in detail about the skin of them a little later.

Do you always carefully read the labels on the products you buy? I try to be as careful as possible, but perhaps the most important person would like to release, out of respect, a terrible black sticker on the box with the gadget, saying: “This product may contain chemical elements, which may lead to cancer illness and impairment of reproductive functions.” Were you angry? Don't be afraid. This sticker honors California's 1986 law, also known as Proposition 65. Adhesives can be applied to almost all products, including those otherwise associated with chemical production, which includes cosmetics, kitchen items, clothes, goods made from artificial skins (our version, to speak), jewelry and bags something else. The chance that the headset will effectively contain any dangerous elements is practically zero. It’s a smart idea for American lawyers to play it safe.

The box, in addition to the headset itself, contained two sheets, one containing information about the Cloud Drone headset, and the other explaining how the headset connects to computers and game consoles. You say: what can you do that is foldable? However, in order to connect the headset to the Xbox One console, you will initially need a special adapter from Microsoft. In case of problems with other platforms, such folding devices are not to blame.

The axis and the headset itself are secured to a plastic pad. The lining of the Vikonan is made of some amazing plastic, which literally crumbles before your eyes from abrasions, leaving red marks on the black plastic of the headset. Don’t forget that the key word here is “budgetary”. The creators of HyperX Cloud Drone tried to spare everything in order to release the most affordable model of their popular line of gaming gadgets to the market today.

Carefully remove the headset from the lining. Its design is in many ways similar to other models of the Cloud family, and you immediately note the presence of metal structural elements - everything is made of plastic. I repeat, the obvious solution is to protect production. Now let’s figure out how this gadget can make your boss happy, besides the low price.

The publisher is especially pleased that this headset is ideal for the needs of video game lovers. She is tame, free of chimerical supernaturalism, yet miraculously copes with her main tasks. This means that the gadget weighs only 220 grams (including the cable), which means that your head will not fall victim to many years of battles in front of the monitor.

A condenser microphone on a flexible knife can be adjusted in front of the audience in any way that suits you. At the end of the microphone there is a small metal bracket attached, which plays the role of partial protection from the wind.

Due to the fact that the microphone is single-directional, the creators of Cloud Drone managed to implement a system for eliminating third-party noise in the headset. Just like you are in the academic choir, your partners will be playing just like your voice. Vzagali, the ability to transmit a voice to even a high level. This also confirms the evidence of TeamSpeak certification and the continued success of popular voice messengers on the desktop Discord, Skype, Ventrilo, Mumble and Raidcall.

The mechanism for turning on and off the microphone is implemented in an original way. You turn it uphill behind the anniversary arrow, and on the way up you feel a clicking sound - which means you don’t hear anyone else. Do you want to turn around again before sleeping? Simply lower the microphone down, after which your friends can hear your voice again. Make sure to attach the microphone properly so that when you shake your head, you won’t shake or shake it. The headset, although plastic, is made to last.

On the other side of the headset there is a volume control that turns around. The implementation of such a mechanism allowed retailers to avoid the need for an external control panel, which, as a rule, does not require folding cables. The plastic disc-regulator is wrapped around and adjusted smoothly and manually. There is a hole in the upper part, as well as a small protruding ridge for a quick connection with your finger.

The upper part of the headband has a soft lining made of red leather and polyurethane foam. Vaughn evenly distributes the attention on your head, including the unpleasant consequences of a nasty gadget.

Compared to the older models of the Cloud family, the new headset cannot boast of a metal headband. Not least, the plastic elements in places of advanced use have been specially reinforced to make them significantly more valuable. The height of the headband is adjusted according to the chain pattern. On the skin side you can increase the height by 4 centimeters. Digital marks with a margin of 5 millimeters are applied to the plastic so that you can remember the ideal signs.

The ear cushions are made from artificial leather and are covered with foam with a memory effect. This very feature is also used in expensive models of Cloud headsets, so on which retailers decided not to save. The longer the headphones sit on your head, the better the smell, the more comfortable your gadget will be. Sound insulation is at a good level, let’s call it ideal, but my tongue can’t move. On the other hand, do not forget that we are using a gaming headset, and not monitor headphones. I would like to point out that this category of devices has some faults.

In the middle of the skin cup there is a 40 mm speaker made of a neodymium magnet. Such magnets are used in mid- and high-end headphones, while cheaper models usually have ferite magnets.

The meter-long cable is made of nylon braiding, which allows for unique twisting and poshkodzhen. The cable ends with a 4-pin 3.5mm plug. The set with the headset also comes with a two-meter long plug that ends with two plugs, which you can install on your personal computer. It’s easy to do this manually. A short cable for connection with game consoles (the plug plugs directly into the gamepad), and a short cable for reaching the headset to the system unit, which stands under the table. All plugs are covered with gold plated.

It's time to talk about sound. I was very worried that “budget” could negatively affect the sound quality of the headset. Let’s not forget that this is a gaming gadget itself, and not headphones for listening to music or watching movies. At first, the sound sounds dry and “flat,” but if you use the equalizer, you can easily make the headset your best friend. Low frequencies sound as expressive as possible, mid frequencies sound even better, and the axis with high frequencies presents the most obvious problems. The speakers exhibit wonderful loudness without sound artifacts or strains.

The positioning of sound in video games works wonders. In popular computer shooters, it is immediately clear from which side the enemy is creeping up on you. The microphone also behaves very quickly, so that your teammates can clearly sense your word, which will ultimately lead the team to victory.

For console games, the headset is also acceptable. I only tested it on the Sony PlayStation 4, since for the Xbox One I did not have a suitable adapter for the 3.5 mm plug. Well, in console shooters, the headset has once again shown itself to be very useful. The positioning of the sound, the realistic shots and vibrations, the purity of the language when combined with party members - all make Cloud Drone a wonderful choice for the “igor on the sofa” dances.

About those that the gaming headset is responsible for providing wonderful voice transmission for an hour, clear, well-positioned sound and sit comfortably on your head for many years in a row. Perhaps, in its class of devices and price category up to 4000 rubles, HyperX Cloud Drone today simply has no competitors.

Of course, it’s far from easy for anyone to dare to pay so many pennies for a gaming headset, especially for the budget-conscious Hyper they have prepared an affordable product - Cloud Drone. Let's get to know each other.

Packing right, but in the middle, you could do without a plastic pallet, but it’s not so nice. The left cup has a cable about a meter long for connecting to game consoles (joysticks), the set includes a cable for connecting to a PC or other devices. The cables are braided with fabric and look good. The main material of the construction is plastic, so you can use this material to get what you want for the money. But the plastic here is matte and completely reliable. There is no need to add any power, however, since the headset sits on your head, you can wear it for years without any discomfort. One thing to note is that you are sweating a lot, because the temperature of some of the things in the room is comfortable. The cups smell intensely, and sometimes you want to literally get some air, especially when the game is active.

On the left cup there is a microphone base that memorizes the given shape. The design of the microphone itself is great, the metal mesh on the foam rubber is well made. There is also a Mute function; when you lift the microphone arm, it goes silent. In WoT, if you play without friends, it helps to stay in “quiet” mode and not bother your players with battles, battles, or battles with your friends.

On the right bowl there is a volume regulator, the primary twist helps to set the required level. After all, it’s actually a great plus, you don’t have to reach for the remote control or get involved in the adjustments.

The ear pads and the bottom of the headband are covered with eco-skin, the tradition for the company of black and red has not gone anywhere. There are no scary LEDs, flames or acidic colors, the headset looks neat and practical.

The description says that the ear pads can still remember the position, but after using the headset for a long time, nothing has changed. From the very first time, Cloud Drone sits thickly, as if it were a mitten the size of a mitten.

Sound

The cups have 40 mm speakers, the company does not talk about any special technologies, so there is a minimum of marketing here. Frequency range - from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz, this figure does not say anything, you need to take it seriously.

To check the possibilities, I will choose one of the most popular gaming headsets, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Siege. I have discovered this for myself quite recently, and will definitely write about it and look back at it. So, the game headset is to blame here, first of all, it’s very clear to convey to you directly that the enemy is collapsing, but in another way, it’s so cool to have broken bruises and shot! It’s simply a sin to trust the weak TV speakers.

If you compare with Cloud Revolver, then it simply immerses you in the atmosphere of Rainbow Six, even though there is a lot of sound information, you can rinse your nerves so well that then you just see. The advantage of Cloud Drone is that the speakers here are not so informative, but for the price of the device it is simply beautiful in terms of sound. Most of the light-noise grenades make a noise, wince and don’t rub your eyes too much, shoot garni, feel like the stars are sneaking through the gates and where the boards are breaking. Of course, this is bribing.

The microphone here is equipped with a noise reduction system, the transmission clarity is not compromised, just like the “great” HyperX headsets.

In short, apparently, if it’s not buried, it’s close to that. The microphone arm is manual, it goes off during the turn-off hour, analogue volume control is all help in the game. The cable connection is optimal when used with a PS4 joystick.

Visnovki

The price for a subset is 3,990 rubles, which is just a pittance for a cob headset. If you are just about to buy a set-top box and get lost in hundreds of propositions, be aware that HyperX Cloud Drone is one of the best. I mean the advantages:

• Simple, concise design
• Good sound quality in games
• Manual flip-up foot for microphone
• Analogue volume control
• Passive noise insulation at height

• Ventilation is not thought out - an important point if you play for more than a few years
• There are no metal parts, no need, no name
• Can't be folded, but it's not a problem for a gaming headset

Disadvantages are not the same cons. I have been pleased with the HyperX Cloud Drone for several days now, despite having the Cloud Revolver at hand. For consoles – a must have.
