Let me preface by stating I am reviewing the Blackshark v2 pro. Sometimes amazon combines similar item reviews, this is important and that I have owned this for over a year with consistent usage, using it multiple days a week for 1-8 hours. This thing has a lot going for it with very few downsides that in my opinion do not outweigh the pros and if you can get this for $150 or less it is 100% worth it. Pros - Noise cancellation is so strong, sometimes I don't hear my wife when she calls for me. She was the one who bought this for me lol - Sound quality through synapse can be adjusted to your liking, and I can't recommend it without it (kind of a con) - Incredibly comfortable even with glasses. There is a lot of good padding on the head and ears, prior headsets this was always an issue, recently before this I owned a corsair void elite and even that wasn't perfect, but it was close in this category. - Battery life is actually really strong, just be sure to charge it after each usage. I've only ever gotten this to low battery where it beeps at me if I use it for 10-12 hours without charging it. Sometimes thats a long gaming day sometimes thats multiple days. I'm pretty good about keeping things charged, so this isn't a pain point for me, but may be for you. That said you can charge while using it. - Removable microphone, probably not a huge deal for most, but I use these as headphones not a headset. I use an external USB mic for better quality (I'll get into that later). - Ability to use this with 3.5mm port. I wouldn't recommend this without the USB function, as the USB DAC it comes with is decent enough and having used it without it, this is where it fails, but I'm labeling the 3.5mm port as a pro in case you have a multipurpose headset in mind - THX 7.1, now this is just virtual surround sound but in the couple games I have tried, notably monster hunter world, it performs really well, its weird to get used to but its done well enough. Not a huge selling point, you can get this elsewhere, but noted. Cons - Without the USB DAC and synapse you are losing a lot of potential. This thing is really good for sound quality once you configure it, but on it's own it's horrible, this is why I did not get the wired version of the blackshark v2 with just 3.5mm. - Microphone quality isn't great, its honestly worse than most and for $180 it should be a lot better, this is why I use an external mic. Unless you're yelling, your friends will probably say you're quiet. - Intermittent disconnects, unsure if this is a hardware, connection or synapse issue but it happens infrequently it doesn't bother me, but should be noted. - Synapse, I swear I've had issues with every gaming software (ghub, icue, synapse) but recently synapse has been a pain. I love iCUE (or did) but hate corsair software, but if synapse continues to get worse I will look elsewhere for another headset. Overall, if I had to buy this thing again I'd do it for $130 or so. I wouldn't spend $180, I'd just get professional wired headphones, but this thing has a lot going on that it made it worth it to me. I recommend these headphones to anyone who is in the market for a wireless headset in this budget range who doesn't hold grudges against razer. In that niche, I think its perfect.

I have absolutely no complaints about this headset. I love the solid black color. It has been my favorite that I have ever used by far. It fits over my ears comfortably. It is comfortable after many hours of wearing it; some days I will even wear it all day and into the night as I work round the house. It has long range and picks up signal from my computer even when I'm about 30 feet outside of my house before it starts losing signal. People who have heard me use the mic say that it sounds crisp and just like I'm in-person speaking to them. In the past, I have used multiple different Razer headsets - including many versions of the Kraken heaset. I love how comfortable this headset is compared to those and I love that the mic can be detached. The battery life of this headset is also quite long. I can use it for several days before needing to charge it. It is easy to use and you can adjust the settings with the Razer programs. This heaset has a button on the side above the power button to mute your mic; I have appreciated and frequently use this button. Tapping the power button once also pauses the video or music that I'm currently playing. I have had this headset since September 2023, and it is still high quality just like the day I purchased it.

Honestly one of the best headset I have ever used. I was never a fan of Razer because of the past reputation. But they are great! Highly recommend, comfortable, can’t hear any outside noise, mic quality is amazing. Battery life is extremely good, connect very fast. Not heavy , and the great sound quality!

I have used these a few times so far and feel like my opinion of them probably won't change much over time, pending some drastic change with them. I don't want to lie and say I don't like them, I ALMOST love them! There are just a few things that hold them back from being excellent. The sound with these is just okay. I wasn't expecting studio quality or anything, but I think the audio could be a little better. I don't know if it is because of the THX Spacial audio that I need to figure out how to disable or adjust, but sometimes they sound tinny. Call me old school, but just give me two channels: left and right. The battery life seems fine. I haven't allowed them to die, but I have used them over several days for a few hours each without concerns for battery life. I know I can access a rough battery indicator through the Razer software, but it would be nice to tap the power button and hear "X percent battery remaining" or something like that. Even the jankiest and cheap wireless headphones I've tried have this feature, but that's more nit-picky. Completely unnoticeable latency from my experience. I have tried so many wireless headsets that end up in the garbage because they're advertised as "Gaming Headsets," but when you have 500ms latency, you might as well mute the game. The fact that I can *mostly* use them wirelessly and not get caught up in my headset cord is magical. I catch myself trying to move the phantom cable out of my way because I am so used to it. It's like when I wear contacts and keep trying to push my glasses up, but it's a good feeling. I say that I can *mostly* use them wirelessly because these have a horrid range. I am sitting 3 feet from my PC using these, and I keep getting the disconnect/reconnect tone from turning to look out the window or even tilting my head to the side. From what I've seen, these are supposed to work up to 10 meters. The advertised 10 meters must be in a vacuum because, in my real-life scenario, I'm getting roughly 1 meter. I think Razer may have forgotten the decimal in "1.0 meter". Even reaching up with my hand to turn the volume up or down blocks the signal and disconnects. This "feature" is excellent for when my wife talks to me, though, because I can just put my hand up and "mute" them! They are very comfortable. Some headphones I've used that are "over the ear" tend to be too small for actual over-the-ear coverage, or the headbands adjust in awkward ways that don't allow you to have a comfortable experience. The build quality is very excellent. They don't feel cheap and are put together well. I also love the removable microphone. So many gaming headsets have them built in and can't be removed. Pros: * Decent sound for gaming. * Good battery life. * Unnoticeable latency. * Very comfortable and adjustable. * Removable microphone. * Nice build quality. * Volume knob built into headphones. Cons: * THX Spacial audio seems lackluster. * Wireless range is terrible. Ultimately, they would be fantastic, but they are literally being held back by the awful wireless range. I am fine with the fact that I can't go check the mail and still be connected, but when I'm sitting directly in front of my PC and have disconnects, that's enough to make them not worth the cost. Fortunately, they support a 3.5mm cable so if you need more range than 3 feet you should be fine. Honestly, if I had a better wireless option I would probably send these back today.

after like 2 months of using this, don't buy it. that's it!

Acabo de recibir estos audífonos. Tenía unos Razer Kraken (no recuerdo el modelo), pero después de cuatro años de uso intenso, aunque aún funcionan, la diadema se rompió, así que decidí comprar estos. Llevo apenas dos días usándolos y estoy más que satisfecho con la compra. El micrófono suena increíble con los ajustes correctos, pero incluso sin configuraciones adicionales, la calidad es bastante buena. En cuanto al audio, me encanta. Nunca he usado audífonos Hi-Fi, que supongo que tienen una calidad excepcional, pero estos realmente se escuchan increíblemente bien (esto es solo mi opinión). He visto que algunos usuarios mencionan que se les rompen, algo que hasta ahora no me ha pasado (y espero que no suceda). Estaré atento a su durabilidad. En conclusión, los recomiendo ampliamente por su calidad de audio y micrófono. Creo que, con un uso adecuado y sin ser brusco con ellos, pueden durar bastante tiempo.

I bought a new monitor, which doesn't have speakers in it (a deliberate choice) so wanted some good headphones that I could use to watch films with and play games with. Read loads of reviews and these were considered the best for the price. Very comfotable on the head and they cut out the surrounding noise amazingly (beware your partner/parent shouting you as you won't hear them!). I use them with my PS4 and have set it up to work on everything, not just games. The quality of the sound is fantastic. I can't fault them at all. The mic just unplugs as well, so if you don't need it, just pop it to one side

Big upgrade over my previous headset. Great for just about anything including gaming and listening to music.

Bisher bin ich wirklich Beeindruckt. Es hat eine super Klang Qualität und ist auch sehr leicht zu tragen. Auch das Design gefällt mir gut. Mit meinem vorherigen hatte ich ziemliche Verbindungsprobleme (Razer Kraken Kitty) das habe ich bei diesem nicht. Ich bin sehr zufrieden☺️
