I was pleased with the build quality of the HyperX SoloCast. It’s snug, light, and sits well on the desk and has a good solid feel to it. The top features a tap to mute. Simply tap the top of the mic to mute, and the signature LED indicator lets you immediately see whether or not you’re broadcasting.

The included USB-C cable isn’t braided, so don’t be too rough with it. It was perfect to be stuffed behind my desk and had enough slack to manoeuvre the mic easily.
