Sorry for long review but it’s detailed and honest and will absolutely help with your decision.
This headset is designed for GAMING and they do just that and more, I GURANTEE you will be beyond happy with this product. ((Id like to say I’ve owned and used these almost everyday for 5 and half months)) If you’ve never owned a Razer product I promise they won’t disappoint you, you should see what your missing out on. Plus 2 year warranty and awesome customer support. I LOVE this headset and I’ve owned turtle beaches, Astro a-10’s, and I’ve tried arctic steelseries 5. Blackshark V2x is simply a better product and you should buy them.
1.) SOUND QUALITY: The 50mm triforce drivers should make this headset more and $50-60. With frequency range of 12hz – 28hz you get the most dynamic sound range which is crisp, clean, and defined, plus the triforce technology that no other headset has..Most headsets in the price range are usually 40mm drivers and 20hz-20hz with neodymium magnets which is basic and nothing new. The bass hits HARD and crisp with mids and treble being very clear and loud. not a muddy/staticky sound of all three combined. They’ve got a super wide range of volume,you can just keep turning and turning the volume nob until they are so loud but still crystal clear audio.
2.)COMFORT AND BUILD QUALITY: They are very lightweight and super easy to wear for longgg periods of time. The overall quality and feel of the headset is sturdy thick plastic, not cheap creeking plastic, with metal or aluminum adjustment sliders. The ear cushions and very soft leathery material and stays nice and firm, with the material quality being superb, so after months of use you won’t have flat, hard earpads. The actual size of the ear cups and awesome not to small to here the crush the tops of your ears they go completely around them for nice comfortable seal on the sides of your head with plenty of room for your ears. This the kind of headset that you will forget you have on. They got the perfect clamping force to stay put and not feel like it’s crushing you, the memory foam keeps them comfortable and in place. The headband is nice and cushioned with leathery material. When it comes to adjusting it on your head it has a dirtent type of adjustment functionality. You can get precise adjustment perfect for you head. It’s not one singular piece to move it slides and 2 diffrent parts on left and right side to get the PERFECT position you like, with ear cups being able to swivel to help even more to seal around your ears and countour of your head.
3.) NOISE CANCELLATION: Razer did a very good job with noise cancellation because of the memory foam ear cups that get a good seal on side of your head as I said above. My mom hates it because she can’t yell at me from living room when I have them on. They make for awesome immersive experience, only being able to hear the sweet sounds of gaming,with no background outside noise. The memory foam ear pads really help keep outside noise out. I’m assuming if they were some fabric material sound would seep through.
4.)MICROPHONE QUALITY: I’ve gotten multiple compliments about the clarity of the mic, always asking what mic I have and their surprised by the answer. It’s pretty damn impressive for this headset in this price range, the mic is just as good as some “streamer mics”. I Never have problems with echoes or like static background noise. It’s literally dead quiet until you speak and it only picks up your voice. We all know if you have a ceiling fan on it can be heard when you talk. This mic doesn’t pick up that sound literally just your voice and you don’t need to have the mic super close to your mouth, can have it decently away and you’ll still sound loud and clear on the other end. Like I said it’s pretty damn impressive for the price of this headset.
5.) CONS I DONT LIKE: •Microphone doesn’t flip up(blackshark V2 has removable mic).
•The cord is a rubbery material and no matter what it never seems to straighten out completely, braided cord would be better.
•The headset cable is not removable, so if you break it the headset is toast.

This headset was purchased to replace a Hyper X Cloud Alpha S in which the mic stopped working after ~2 years. In comparison to the aforementioned product, the Razer offering is less than half the cost while sounding better (both mic and headphones). Comfort is a touch below the Cloud’s, but not by much. Fit is firm & secure. Feels well made. The controls are simple and well implemented.
Sound signature – bass is excessive but very clean, vocals are a touch recessed, highs have excellent resolution without being fatiguing. Female vocals are really the only weak point, and they aren’t terrible just lacking a bit of warmth.
For ~$40, it is an exceptional value; probably better than most of the competition regardless of price.

My biggest concerns when buying headphones for gaming was Ear/Head comfort and maneuverability/adjustment of the headphones’ ear pieces.
I wear glasses all the time, and I’ve had a pair of JVC headphones before that always squeezed my head too tight and made my ears and temples hurt because the headphones were pressing my glasses too hard against my head. Conversely, I’ve also had Sony headphones in the past. Sony headphones are great for casually listening to music and watching videos and stuff, and they’re very portable and easy to fold up and turn the ear-pieces in all different directions. Sony ones are also very comfortable as a result. The problem with Sony headphones – the coating around the foam of the ear pieces eventually wears off, gets full of earwax, and peels away over time, and the headphones lose their elasticity and become so loose around your head that they don’t cancel noise anymore.
I was looking for something comfortable and highly adjustable as a person who wears glasses all the time and didn’t want cheap ear pieces that would lose their quality over time.
After looking at several reviews online for different sets of Gamer headphones, I found the Blackshark V2 X Razer Headphones. These also come with movie theater sound that is very easy to set up on your computer as an additional audio output beside your computer’s ordinary stereo speaker audio, as well as stickers for your laptop or the headphones themselves. These headphones may look strange and bulky at first glance, but they actually look very cool when worn, and are amazingly comfortable to wear. I’ve had these for several months now. The ear pieces have not worn out at all, and they rest around your ear, not against the ear itself, so no earwax will get on them, and nothing will be pressing against your ears. Unlike most headphones that have the volume controls on the cord, these headphones have a volume wheel you can twist/turn on the left ear-piece, as well as a mute button. This is far more convenient for gamers who can quickly reach up to change the volume instead of fumbling with a cord. The headphones look tight but are surprisingly gentle. They don’t squeeze very hard because the ear pieces are large enough and soft enough to evenly distribute the pressure around your head so that it doesn’t hurt. I’ve worn them for long hours wearing glasses the entire time, and they’ve never caused me a shred of discomfort. They’re almost plush and soft by design, both the ear cushions and the arched frame of the head piece. The metal wires connecting the ear pieces to the head frame are extendable for height adjustment, but the headphones don’t fold up very compactly for travel. Don’t try to fit them in a backpack or purse. The microphone head is made of soft foam that can be removed if you desire it, but the microphone itself cannot be detached from the headset. The microphone is very malleable and can be easily bent into any position desired (not just up or down). The cord is bright green and divided into two parts. One half of the cord has a single audio plug connected to the headset. The other half of the cord is an extension that the first half can plug into that allows your computer to hook up to both the microphone and the headset via two audio plugs. This pair of headphones was worth it!

Escribo esto con mucha satisfacción, son mis primeros audífonos gamer y no quería gastar demasiado ni tampoco desilusionarme o comprar algo basura, valen cada centavo, los he comprado por 1650 Pesos mexicanos, y son geniales, bien construidos, cómodos, audio genial y micrófono a la altura, los abra mejores pero estos son muy económicos para la calidad que recibes y la marca razer es elegante, después de algunas horas se siente pesado pero la construcción es sólida sin faltarle comodidad, compre la versión que no trae tarjeta de audio 7.1, aun así se incluye un código para descargar la app de razer y tener el 7.1. Mejora bastante la experiencia ya que permite escuchar en tonos mas altos o sube el volumen en mi parecer, como les digo el micrófono es decente y sensible a la comunicación, en estética si se ven un poco mejores que los razer kraken tournament pero leí reseñas que el audio es similar de bueno pero el micro de estos era mejor y creo que he decidido bien, espero en algunos meses demuestren ser durables o actualizare… 9.5/10 en el rango de precio, en cuanto a estética están bastante chulos y se ven igual al articulo o fotos

I play a lot of Call of Duty and this headset is perfect for it. You can hear footsteps way better and the sound quality is better than any headset I’ve had. Also the clarity of the microphone is great. I cannot believe how good this headset is for the price. I recently bought a headset here on Amazon that had 100K+ reviews at 4.5 stars, it was $70. I was very disappointed with that headset and I had to return it. After that I bought this headset, it was on deal. Only cost me $45 and this headset is 100 times better than the one I paid $70 for. I’ve been using it for a week so far I love it. This headset is definitely build for competitive gaming and I think it will last me a long time

Been using the V2 X (The cheaper one) for a couple days now. Here are my thoughts:
Sound quality is good; very balanced and natural sounding, with little audio processing and compression. The bass is okay, but good for a gaming headset. Very immersive sound experience overall, even without the 7.1 surround sound.
Microphone quality is great; crisp and clear without much compression on higher frequencies, and in my opinion on par with much more expensive gaming headsets.
The headset is very light, you can wear it for hours on end, It has no pressure points and the clamping force is just right in my opinion.
Build quality is okay, the rail system for the head band extension may take some getting used too, and feels albeit fragile as it is literally just two thin metal rails. I would be a little cautious when handling the headset over time.
The V2 X might be one of the best gaming headset for its price range. Gotta give it to Razer with this one, rarely do you hear budget and Razer in the same sentence…

They have way too much scooped mids, overwhelming bass, & severely lacking in the highs.
They are nice and low profiled, feel good on the ears even with glasses, have decent sound isolation, and no cord noise however they just sound cheap and bassy IMO.
I went off Hardware Canucks review of them and I am shocked Demitry, after usually wearing high end open backed Sens for his gaming rig, said these sounded great.
I had high hopes for an all in one headset to use on and off when I don’t feel like using my Sens and boom mic but even after a break in there is no way these are going to develop more highs.
It’s mostly mids and bass and for music and games they are just bland and lifeless.

Great for gaming, mic quality is good – does a good job capturing only my voice and not my household. Though can be a bit quiet so your friends will have to increase your volume in discord or you’ll have to boost it yourself somehow via software.
Sound quality when it comes to gaming is really good. I don’t think you’ll be missing anything here. (except maybe if you play DOOM a lot and have the OST cranked up past everything else)
For listening to music I guess it’s fine, it’s certainly not great but it’s not bad either. Won’t be winning your heart over on that side. Not going to replace a decent pair of headphones anytime soon.
I’d recommend it for gaming especially, really light on the head and not uncomfortable after long periods of time. Ear pads are nice and cable feels decently sturdy.

Tuve la oportunidad de comparar este producto con otros headset gama de entrada como:
HyperX Cloud Stinger (no los core)
HyperX Clod X
Corsair HS50 pro
Astro A10
Razer Kraken X
Debo decir que estos Blackshark y los Astro A10 son los que tienen mejor calidad de audio, que de hecho realmente es lo que vale la pena pagar para una experiencia gaming, a mi gusto ganan por poco los drivers y el microfono de los Astro A10 pero en la comodidad, aislamiento y cancelación de ruido los Blackshark no tienen comparación aparte en PC se compensa bastante el audio, ya que te incluyen un ecualizador con el que podras configurar varios aspectos de musica peliculas y juegos.
Si estas buscando unos headset de menos de $1200 te recomiendo estos son los mejores tanto para consolas como PC y la verdad desde que haces el unboxing te das cuenta la superioridad que tienen a los demas, si bien tiene sus desventajas como no poder quitarle el microfono o el cable del jack 3.5mm no por eso son malos, ya que son para jugar y estan muy bien balanceados en sonido y materiales. Ver una película con estos headset es una delicia.
Si solo los vas a ocupar para consolas no te recomiendo ninguno de los dos hyperX ya que sus frecuencias bajas son muy pobres y su altos son muy chillones a mi parecer se les puede sacar mas provecho ecualizando en PC.
Los corsair y los kraken no estan mal pero en volumen alto si se llegan a embarrar los sonidos pero son mejores opciones a los hyperx en consolas.
En resumen si lo que buscas es un headset completo en cuastion de audio y comodidad estos son los adecuados los materiales se ven y se sienten adecuados a lo que pagas, pero si no te importa sacrificar la comodidad para obtener un mejor microfono para streming ve por los Astro A10.
Espero que esto te ayude en gran medida para elegir tus primeros headset.
