These sound and feel fine for the price point
I got these for working remotely, the goal was to give myself a more portable option that an XLR condenser mic with a separate USB audio interface and a scissor arm. Something I could tote around with a laptop. The Razer Blackshark V2 delivers. The audio quality on the mic is acceptable with the caveat that I spent hours in the Razer Synapse program tweaking the settings and trying to find some combination of options that I could live with. Now, I think I still sound VERY tinny compared to my more professional dekstop audio setup, but for the price, mobility, and comfort I have found these are capable of producing acceptable microphone audio quality. The biggest problem I ran into is that the mic on the Blackshark V2 doesn’t pick up lower tones as clearly as higher ones, and apparently my voice is on the low side.At least I had the option to tweak the settings because before getting the Blackshark V2 I had tried the Razer Kraken V3, and there is no fixing the audio that headset produces. Those were my second Razer product ever and my first Razer headset, I was shocked they put their name on something that shoddy. If Razer hadn’t been having a sale that made their products an attractive price at the time I’d never have given their headsets the time of day ever again.The comfort on these is fairly good, nothing extraordinary to me but I usually take meetings and listen to music through audiophile quality headphones and I often put custom earpads on them, so my standards are very high. These certainly exceed what I would normally expect from comfort in a set of headphones at this pricepoint, but I find them to be less comfortable than your average Sennheiser headphones. The cups are a bit more shallow with the default cups and rest closer to my ear than I would like. Replacement pads are at the top of my shopping list for these, though I do like the breathable jersey material on the outside of them.The audio quality is acceptable. I honestly haven’t even considered using these to listen to music or play games, and in meetings I have much lower expectations for the audio quality others bring to the table than I do for myself. But at no point has the audio quality jumped out to me as being bad. I ran a quick 3 track audio test just now and they’re very bright sounding, which is to say these seem better tuned to produce higher frequencies than lower ones. They don’t spark joy in my inner audiophile, but they’re not bad either. This is acceptable audio. A sound that I think most people will find agreeable unless they’re especially bass hungry. For those of you who are Dankpods fans I can offer an excellent frame of reference, you can barely hear the bongo player going off in Earth, Wind, & Fire’s “September” with these.One notable feature that I’ve not encountered before (because I have gone out of my way to avoid using headsets) but really appreciated is the sidetone. I don’t like closed back headphones and stick to open backs unless I’m listening to music in a public place. And I REALLY hate talking with closed backs headphones because I can’t hear myself and I feel like I’m yelling. The sidetone option these offer takes in and plays ambient noise back to me so that I can hear myself and the world around me in real time. It may seem like a silly thing to want but for those of you who feel the same as myself I can promise this is a LOVELY feature to have.

King of gaming headsets for 100$
This is the king of headsets. Do not be fooled by the 100$ price point of this headset.As a competitive gamer, I need every edge I can get over my opponent. This headset does not disappoint. I have tried multiple headsets over $200 and they could not compete in the same league as this headset. I will list all the things I love most down below in order of importance:1.) sound quality – best bang for the buck here. Punchy bass, extremely accurate directional audio (this is the first headset used where I have been able to kill enemies with my eyes closed). This headset gets very loud, no need to worry about missing any enemy footfalls. For music, this headset sounds better than my beats. You can hear every layer of sound and will be fully immersed in music2.) Mic clarity – I have never been more impressed by a headsetâs mic. I come in crystal clear over any and all chats. Clear enough to stream with or record YouTube videos, I donât know how they did it but Razr killed it with this mic.3.) Price – This should be factor number one as far as Iâm concerned. I still cannot get over the fact I paid $100 for this engineering marvel. I have tried multiple headsets over the $200 price point and this one is the king. Everything you could ever want in a headset and more.4.) Comfort – this is by far the most comfortable headset Iâve ever worn, it weighs almost nothing and sits like a cloud on my head. I can wear this for eight hours or more comfortably with glasses. This is officially the first time Iâve ever been able to say this about any headset. Flawless design here.After going through multiple more expensive headsets, I finally settled on the Razr Blackshark V2.Other products I tried:Steelseries Arctic 9x – DO NOT BUY THIS ATROCITYHyperX Cloud Revolver S – Fell apart within a yearBoth of these $200+ headsets have far inferior audio quality.I have used expensive Astros and Tritons as well. They can produce similar audio quality, albeit being twice the price and twice as heavy and thus uncomfortable.As an IT guy who handles calls, I use this headset for work as well and couldnât be happier. Hardcore gamer, audiophile, or phone support – stop shopping around, this is the headset for you.

I’ve used cheap $30-$40 headphones my entire life. This is my first more expensive pair and I LOVE them. Great sound quality, the mic is solid, and the passive noise cancellation is really good. I just need to get used to it because I talk a lot louder than I need to when on Discord.They’re super comfortable, surprisingly light enough to wear them for hours and still feel comfortable. Build quality feels sturdy with a little heft, but not heavy enough to be uncomfortable, whatsoever. I really like that the volume wheel has a small click when reaching the midpoint, so you don’t have to guess. Really nice touch.I was to able to plug and play immediately. Once I plugged it into my computer I was prompted to download some Razer software, which was super easy to setup and took a few minutes to learn. One thing I don’t fully get the purpose of is THX Spatial Audio. It sounds noticeably worse than when it’s off, but maybe I don’t fully get the purpose yet. I’ll update this review if I get it to work properly, but for now, I keep it off.In terms of product quality, it feels like a high-quality pair of headphones. I’m not an audiophile by any means but I absolutely love how these feel and sound. The ear cushions don’t trap sweat or heat and honestly just feel great after long gaming sessions.The Synapse app has a lot of options, an equalizer, and various presets like Movie, Game, and Music. Just the Default preset is great already. Music sounds really good, when consuming media like Youtube videos, or Netflix, the headphones sound great and I can’t complain.Overall these are quite amazing headphones. I highly recommend getting them if you have something higher quality than the typical “budget headphones.” It’s definitely worth the price. Definitely a great buy. Hope it can last me a year or two, AT LEAST.

I’ve had this headset for a few months now and I must praise it for it’s brilliant sound quality and build quality.It’s a beautiful design, the soft earpads are extremely comfortable but can leave my earholes abit sweaty after a couple hours gaming.The sound is boomy and detailed, took me a little while to get used to the sound difference after initially switching from my Corsairs to these but now I’m used to it I’m extremely happy. The mic is excellent and I love that it’s detachable, the design is subtle enough for me to wear as headphones out in public without drawing attention to myself.
