Razer BlackShark V2 X Xbox Gaming Headset: 50mm Drivers – Cardioid Mic – Lightweight – Comfortable, Noise Isolating Earcups – for Xbox Series X, Series S, PS5, PC, Switch via 3.5mm Audio Jack – Black

A (Really) Great Entry Level Wired Headset
For what it costs, I had relatively low expectations of this headset. I came from a Corsair Virtuoso SE wireless headset that had a great mic and very good sound, but the connection with my PS4 was never very solid and I would notice relatively frequent dropouts in audio. Friends with PS4s swore by using the 3.5mm jack on the controller and I decided to use this to test.Build QualityWhen you pick up the headset the first thing you notice is just how light it is. It feels somewhat solid, but also it’s clear that this is not a headset that prioritized premium materials. It’s also extremely comfortable because of how light it is. Although I’ve never had issues with heavier headsets and neck pain, if that is a consideration the light materials should be great for long term sessions.The pads are faux leather on the interior ring and exterior ring. The part that rests against your head feels like something a little more breathable. I don’t think I will have any issues wearing these for long sessions. The clamping force is a good moderate level where they won’t fall off accidentally, but I don’t feel like I am in a death grip.Mic QualityI made some calls using the mic and, I believe this to be a great compliment to the quality of the mic, no one thought I was on a headset. “It’s like you were actually talking through your phone.” Although they have a gamer vibe, I could definitely see using these on conference calls (as long as the video was off.) Basically, the mic is great.Audio QualityHere’s where I was expecting things to fall apart, but they really didn’t. I decided to make a completely unfair comparison between these and my pair of Sennheiser HD600s run off of an AudioQuest DragonFly Black DAC/AMP. There was clearly no contest between the two headphones in terms of vocals or detail retrieval, but the Razer wasn’t a bad headphone by any means. It had a clear and present bass, without being muddy. I do feel like the Corsair Virtuoso had a more full sound, but the spotty connection ruined it.Gaming tends to be, I think, more forgiving than listening to music … so I ran through a couple of games as a test. I tried a game that I feel focuses on background music (Unravel), which sounded great. I also tried something with more exploding (Borderlands 3) and the headset felt equally competent.Flaws (But Not Deal Breakers)The volume knob goes the opposite of the way my mind treats every other volume knob in my life. Clockwise turns the sound down?! WHY?!I would have loved an LED to remind me that I’m muted. My first attempted call failed because the mute was engaged.ConclusionThe Razer Blackshark V2 X might have a terrible name, but it’s an amazing product at the price point. I don’t play as many games online as I used to and I listen to a lot more music. For me, it makes sense to have a great pair of headphones for music and solo play as well as a cheap headset for online play with friends and conference calls. This works for me.

Probably The Best Sub $100 Headset
As a person who plays video games and has pets and a small child I eat through my fair share of headsets. This headset not only gives me hope that it might outlast the others in its price category (sub-$100) but that it might be one of the best quality ones in the category too.Two things stand out about the headset: 1. Build quality is above average for this price. I am unsure of if this is because this is a cheaper version of a more expensive headset from Razer, or if they are just good at building them, but these don’t feel flimsy, and they don’t sound flimsy either. This leads to point 2. Sound Quality is comparable to most $100-120 headsets I’ve used. Digital surround has come a long way since it’s debut, and it’s easy to forget that these headphones don’t feature multiple speakers on each side. Beyond that the microphone provides crisp, quiet audio comparable to that of a Shure SM58. When run through even a middling on board audio card on a desktop, there shouldn’t be much of an audible difference between your microphone and those that others spent 4-5x the amount that you did.The physical knob for volume is an exceptional touch at this price, and honestly makes the headset so much more usable than on that requires pressing small buttons to change volume on. As the headset is wired you can use the volume knob on the headset to find tune the volume from your computer (which ideally you set at ~70% and then use the headset to set to the volume you truly want, this gives the best experience).I love these and I would love to get my hands on a pair of the Pro version to see just how much more incredible goodness Razer has crammed into them.

Outstanding Headphones
I recently picked up a set of headphones for my Xbox, and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase. From the second I put them on, I could tell they were built to last. The construction is top-notch, with a solid yet comfortable design that feels durable without being too heavy. The ear cushions are super soft, making long gaming sessions feel effortless.When it comes to sound quality, these headphones truly shine. The audio is crystal clear, with deep, immersive bass and crisp highs that make every game feel more lifelike. It could be the subtle footsteps of an enemy in a shooter or the booming soundtrack of an open-world adventure, the sound is perfectly balanced and incredibly detailed. The surround sound effect is spot on, giving me a competitive edge in multiplayer games by making it easy to pinpoint enemy locations.The microphone is another highlight—my teammates hear me loud and clear without any distortion or background noise interference, with zero lag or dropouts, making the experience completely seamless.Overall, these headphones are a solid set for gaming. With their high-quality build, excellent comfort, and outstanding sound performance, they are easily one of the best gaming accessories I’ve ever owned. Highly recommended!

Baratos, llegó a tiempo y sonido increíble, se siente de un material muy resistente, buenas alfombras y buen colchón de la diademaHabía escuchado reseñas de que no se escuchaba cuando se hacían llamadas por Xbox, pero a mi sí me sirvió, ahora me escucho mejor con ese micrófono de los audífonos
