“Overall, the HyperX QuadCast 2 S is a nice improvement, though you can get nearly the same features on the standard QuadCast 2 and save $50.”

The HyperX QuadCast 2 S delivers excellent out-of-the-box audio quality and convenient features like tap-to-mute, though its high-resolution specs are overkill for most users. The higher price and limited software functionality make it a solid but not essential upgrade over the original model.
