Razer Kraken V3 X Wired USB Gaming Headset: Lightweight Build - Triforce 40mm Drivers - HyperClear Cardioid Mic - 7.1 Surround Sound - Chroma RGB Lighting - Black

Fits very comfortable around my ear, chroma rgb app is really easy to use and the mic sounds pretty good for a more cheaper version of the kraken v3. It functions pretty good in all the games I played with not too much bass which other headphones may have. The structure is really good and allows for the lights on the sides of the headphones to show clearly with multiple modes for rgb such as lighting up when there’s audio playing, I’d recommend it for a more cheaper but quality pair of headphones!

Pros:LightweightGreat colors, love the RGBZero lag, crisp soundMids are clear, bass is averageGood for stereo/surroundComfortable, with good passive sound reductionWait and see's:Padded head strap may depress over time. With daily use over a month, it has held up fine, but I use these HEAVILY.Cons:Takes up a USB port, but if you're looking at these, I hope you've factored that in already.

Great headphones, cushion is amazing and mic quality is clear and crisp. These earphones have noise canceling so it’s great for gaming, but will hurt your ears if you wear it for an extended long time (<4-6 hours). Love the lights and its pretty light weight. Packaging is very nice also.

As I write this review I have only had these for 2 days so I will not speak to the quality of the product as far as wear and tear goes. Suffice to say I've never had an issue personally with razer products holding up over time.You might think sound quality took a hit by the added haptic feature compared to other razer products in this price range. I'm happy to report it has not. It is still, in my opinion, one of the best sounding headphones you can get at this price range. In fact, if your game supports THX, which granted is rare, the 7.1 really shines. I've played both Forza Horizon 5 and Warframe (both support THX) and I can tell exactly where sounds are coming from.Comfort. This is where it takes a small hit for me. I'm a big guy. I have a fat head and big ears. These have slightly smaller cups than previous Kraken models I have owned. They also do not "breathe" as well so for longer gaming sessions you will feel it a little. Its not major and doesn't make you feel like you need to take them off. But the slightly larger cups of the past would have been greatly welcome for fat heads like me.Now for the big question for anyone switching to Haptic. Is it worth it? What does it do exactly? Well let me tell you. Its amazing. 100% worth it if you are in the market for new headphones. Like I said, the quality of the sound is there for Razers so if for any reason you don't like the haptic you can easily turn that off. I don't see how you wouldn't like it though. Haptic adds rumbles or thumps depending on whats going on that make you feel what is going on. It can range from a thump and rumbling from an explosion, to tiny thumps with each bullet you fire/get hit by. When watching shows you feel the explosions or say horses run by, you can feel each individual foot step. In one situation an electrified blade was swung by a characters head and it actually felt like the blade was swung right by my head.That said there is a couple things to say that are the downside to the haptic and why it is a 4 instead of a 5 for me. It has 3 settings. Low, medium, and high. I'm not sure why low is there. It may as well be off. Medium is where I keep it and sometimes it has trouble deciding what to do. I will notice it missing explosions or half way kicking in and then stopping. It seems to be very volume dependent which also means it is dependent on how the sound production is as well. The high setting is kind of nuts with how much power the vibrations can get. Enough so that while it doesn't actually distort the sound you will still feel as if it does. High to me, and it seems most people is to much. I really wish there was a setting between medium and high. And lastly voice chat. The haptic can and does pick up with voices. When gaming its not really a big deal. Got used to it in just a couple hours. If/when you are just talking, playing D&D, watching a podcast, simply just turn the haptic off.Music. There really isn't much to say here. Its simply amazing what a little rumble in your ear on deep notes, drums, even bells can add. If you are into rap you will get that vibration in your head just like you would at the club on those bass hits.All in all I HIGHLY recommend giving these a try if you are needing new head phones or have the disposable income to try something different. Even with the misses the haptic sometimes has, the benefits far outweigh the downsides. It really does add that next level to audio.One last thing. The razer synapse program is great. It allows you to set several different profiles for those that love to mess with the equalizer and then easily set which apps/programs use which profiles. If you have a few different profiles for more highs or lows depending on what your watching, you can easily switch which profile the app uses with a drop down menu.

I recently had to replace my aging gaming headphones MPOW EG3's which at the time I bought them worked really well for my needs. I thought that I would get an "upgrade" so I tried a pair of wireless headphones which sounded horrible and had no eq software. I tried another wireless headphone and then another. Both times the native sound to the headphones had way too much bass and mids were dull and washy. The software that came with both of them simply did not work; the $140 pair had a reddit post that which gave workarounds for software glitches which they haven't bothered to fix for at least 3 years. Finally I decided to return to wired and I AM SO GLAD that I chose these headphones. Sounded great out of the box, but still a little too much bass. BUT THE EQ SOFTWARE ACTUALLY WORKS! I am a bit of an audiophile as I edit videos for a living, so being able to adjust audio is something I expect. I tried these with a game that know is hard for headphones to get correct, as it has a lot of mixed bass and mids with environmental sounds and music. These headphones with just a few little tweaks SOUND GREAT! They aren't meant for mixing or mastering music--but they ARE GREAT AS GAMING HEADPHONES!
