HyperX Cloud Alpha Wireless (2022)

HyperX's marathon-battery headset is wireless-only: it connects over 2.4GHz through a USB-A wireless adapter and has no 3.5mm jack or USB wired-audio mode at all. The headset's USB-C port is strictly for charging, topping up a battery rated at around 300 hours. A detachable noise-cancelling mic handles chat. Because there is no analog option, plan to keep the USB-A dongle handy for any device you connect to. Below are the exact ports and cables it uses.

HyperX’s 300-hour wireless gaming headset with a USB-A 2.4GHz dongle and a charge-only USB-C port; no 3.5mm.
