Best Buy is done waiting for Black Friday as it's launched an Early Black Friday sales event that will last until November 9, 2025, discounting a host of electronics, accessories, video games, and more.
One such example is Best Buy's discount for the HyperX Cloud III Wired Gaming Headset, taking the MSRP of this comfortable and well-made pair of headphones down from $99.99 to $69.99.
Is this gaming headset worth being 'hyper'-fixated on?
HyperX's Cloud III Wired Gaming Headset trades away the wireless freedom of its HyperX Cloud III Wireless counterpart for a lower price point while retaining its more expensive brethren's advanced features, high-quality, and comfy ergonomics.
It features earphones outfitted with 53mm drivers, which successfully deliver the sound and music of any game you're hearing with high, immersive clarity.
The headset also features spatial audio, so the user's ears can more easily pick up subtle sound cues like footsteps or breathing. This feature is a great boon that can save you from being sneak-attacked by enemy players in Xbox and PC games like Call of Duty or Battlefield.
The HyperX Cloud III Wired Gaming Headset also comes with a detachable mic whose sound quality when conveying your voice online is just as polished as the headset's 53mm drivers.
On top of that, this headset is mighty comfortable to wear due to its extremely cushy earphone cushions and headband rigged with memory foam to ensure it fits snugly on your head.
If you prefer having a good old-fashioned wired headset, which, in my opinion, can have more stable and reliable connections than wireless headsets, then I highly recommend the HyperX Cloud III Wired Gaming Headset.
You can get your hands on the wired version of one of the best PC gaming accessories for $69.99 at Best Buy, which $30 cheaper than its $99.99 MSRP for a limited time until Best Buy's Early Black Friday sales event ends on November 9, 2025.
