Razer Kraken V3 Pro HyperSense Wireless Gaming Headset w/Haptic Technology: Triforce Titanium 50mm Drivers -THX Spatial Audio - Hyperspeed Wireless - Fabric & Leather Memory foam Cushion (Renewed)

Good product, unique bass feature

I love my headphones! They have such awesome sound quality. I like the different hypersense levels. I can change it to different levels depending on what im doing like streaming on twitch or playing games for fun. The bass hits nice and lod when it'd all the way up. I would have given it a 5 but sometimes I have to plug and unplug the piece that goes into the computer for it to activate sound. Im not sure if that's the headphones or my computer itself.

I'm comparing these to a set of Steelseries Arctis 7's I have used for years and years now.(1)The ear pads fully cover the ears but are a bit stiff. They are still comfortable, but because they seal so tight, they can get a bit sweaty and uncomfortable. I give them a 6/10 for comfort when wearing them for longer sessions. The softer pads on the Steelseries are just more comfortable.(2)Battery life is abysmal. 6 hours and they are done and they take quite a long time to charge. So if you game a few hours, set them on the desk and walk away, come back and game a few more hours, or watch some movies or such you are getting close to needing to charge. Unacceptable. I can use my SteelSeries all day and never need to charge them. 3/10.(3)Haptics. It's a total gimmick. It just vibrates your ears and will probably make them itch. And those haptics drain on the battery that much more, so you better remember to hook them up to charge every single time you take them off. 1/10.(4)Microphone. Sounds pretty good but you have to detach it when not in use. It doesn't slide up into the case as most good sets do. I don't want to have to track down the damn mic when I need it in some drawer. I want to reach up, pull it out, and use it. 5/10.Overall it's a decent pair of headphones if you can get them on a deep sale. The battery life means you will be a slave to the charging cable and the haptic feature is useless. Mine are sitting on a shelf and I am back to the trusty Steelseries.

This seems to be a great headset so far, have used for a few days at this point. The design is comfortable.My only complaint is that it would be nice to adjust the bass, sometimes it gives that rattling of the bass being set too high. Overall headset and mic quality is good, I am heard well on the Mic, I just needed to adjust my microphone levels, and also the mic unplugs from the headset, leaving it as optional if not needing it and just using the headphones. Battery life seems to be good. I have not had any issues with that .

I noticed there is a handful of people out there complaining about the mic stop working or begin having intermittent issues. So read this...I purchased one of these Kraken V3 Pro headsets from a thrift store of all places. It didn't come with a dongle so I had to purchase a used dongle (RC30-0346) one off eBay. I used Razer's headset pairing utility and paired the two. Upon testing the mic I noticed it was not picking up any sounds no matter the settings in windows and/or Synapse. However, the mic worked perfectly fine when the headset was directly plugged into my PC via the three notched aux cord.I then proceeded to update the firmware on both the dongle and headset thinking maybe the mic not working was a firmware issue. Note: in order to update the firmware you must exit Synapse completely. I remember at one point the green "Next" button was darkened but I went ahead and clicked on it and it proceeded to the next step in updating the firmware. The issue continued to persist.I then decided to purchase another unit (this one) refurbed. The mic works perfectly fine out of the box, no issues what so ever. Now that I have both units side by side the new one (refurbed unit) notably has a tighter fitment whereas the thrift store one with the mic issue looks stretched and widened.Conclusion: these headsets must be treated gently when taking off and put on the head. DO NOT grab it from one ear cup and yank it off your head because doing so will deteriorate the cable inside the head band which is responsible for the mic to function properly wirelessly.Also Razer customer service was unaware of this issue.

Was actually sent Razer Barracuda X headset (2021)(not Razer Kraken V3). However it sounds real good and as a bonus it has wireless. Reviews say Barracuda is better than Kraken too. I don't know but it sounds good to me (not an audiophile). I will update if something changes.Update: wireless has low snap, cracke, pop. Not loud but noticeable. Returned forRazer BlackShark V2 HyperSpeed. Flawless connection anywhere in the house. No snap, crackle, pop.

Works perfectly for me. Had to turn off mono to use spatial sound other than that long battery life and comfortable.
