Multi-platform ready Dual-Wireless True Wireless Earbuds Designed For Gaming Featuring Signature HyperX Sound and DTS Headphone:X®
FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–HyperX, the gaming peripherals team at HP Inc. and brand leader in gaming and esports, today announced the release of HyperX Cloud MIX™ Buds, designed for multiplatform gaming and digital lifestyle. This is HyperX’s first True Wireless (TWS) gaming headset that includes dual-mode wireless connectivity, with low-latency 2.4GHz wireless for gaming and Bluetooth®1 5.2 for listening where-ever you go.
Cloud MIX Buds offer fast gaming-grade wireless connections with multi-platform compatibility utilizing a 2.4GHz USB Type-C wireless adapter or Bluetooth wireless for media devices or phones. The included USB-C to USB-C desktop adapter improves accessibility and enables the dongle to serve as a remote control to switch between 2.4HGz and Bluetooth connectivity.
The MIX Buds utilizes large 12mm dynamic drivers and DTS Headphone:X®2 for an immersive in-game audio experience. The Buds offers 7.1 surround sound with precise spatialization and localization for more accurate in-game sound location. Users can use HyperX NGENUITY software to personalize their preferred sound profile including EQs and assign and re-assign touch controls.
