Razer BlackShark V2 Pro Wireless Gaming Headset: THX 7.1 Spatial Surround Sound - 50mm Drivers - Detachable Mic - for PC, PS5, PS4, Switch - Six Siege Special Edition

I bought these in April 2022 and I'm writing this at the end of February 2025. This is the second set of these that I have owned. I will probably buy a third. I wear these all day, every day. Other than maybe a week over the last three years I probably have worn these for 8-12+ hours a day. I play games that are very sound dependent like Escape From Tarkov; where sound really can make the difference. I also listen to podcasts and videos.-sound quality is the best I've found, at least for me. I am not saying they amplify better than other headsets. I am not sure about that. But the sound profile. The way things sound, they are the best. I've tried all the brands in the same and double price range like A50's. But I required wireless with mic.-The battery life is good, and has maintained a decent life throughout. You need to be careful about how you set them down, especially when charging otherwise you will widen the port and cause connection issues. I have hung them on something the entire time so I have had no issues with that this time. You need to be careful about setting them down on the mic, for the same reason.- The ear cups do not pop off for cleaning. What has caused me to call them "dead" is really just that the ear cups have finally popped off. The glue gave up the ghost. I could take the opportunity to clean them, re-glue, and see how long these last. Or I can get a new pair.-Distance: meh. I'm in a small townhouse. If I walk into my kitchen it gets scratchy. It shouldn't They could give a more powerful transmitter.Overall I'd recommend them. There isn't a better option I've found in this price range.

My son requested these for gaming with his buddies and he loves it! He probably loves them even more because when he's wearing them, he can't hear me yelling at him to clean his room...LOL! I will say that I wanted to try them out so I could give a real and honest review and they are so nice. They are comfortable to wear, have EXCELLENT sound quality and they really do block out all other noise. The microphone is great quality and the person on the other end has zero issues hearing you. Whether you are looking at these to use for fun or work, you can't go wrong with these. I know they are a little higher than some others out there but, you definelty get what you pay for with these. He's had them a little over a year now and they are just like the day we bought them!

Overall for gaming I give it 5 stars, nothing at all to complain about and the sound quality is excellent as well as is the spatial sound. For general use, perfect. Very comfortable, even more so than my other headset which was twice the cost (Corsair Virtuoso RGB XT). For musical listening, if you are an 'audiophile' or just someone who puts a lot of value on musical sound quality, this headset will require some fine tuning to sound great. Fortunately, the Razer application this headset uses has a built in adjustable EQ that is capable of handling this task based on your preferences and input. After going through and adjusting the EQ while listening to some reference tracks I am familiar with, the headset performs quite admirably for musical content as well.

When I first got my hands on the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro, I was immediately drawn in by its sleek design and promises of top-tier audio performance. However, my experience with this headset has been a bit of a mixed bag.Let's start with the downside: out of the box, I noticed a slight ringing noise, almost like static, when I turned the headset volume knob up high. For most users, this might be a deal-breaker, but fortunately, there's a simple solution. By dialing the volume knob down a bit, the noise becomes barely noticeable. However, for someone like me who is deaf (needs audios loud af), cranking the knob to the max initially accentuates the noise. Yet, once audio is playing in the background, the noise becomes less prominent and eventually fades into the background.Despite this initial hiccup, the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro has a lot going for it. The audio quality is crisp and clear, delivering an immersive gaming or listening experience. The headset is also comfortable to wear for extended periods, thanks to its plush ear cups and adjustable headband.Now, is it worth buying compared to other headsets on the market? Not necessarily. There are certainly high-end options out there that might offer a more flawless experience, especially for those with sensitive hearing. However, if you're willing to overlook the minor static issue and want a solid headset that won't break the bank, the BlackShark V2 Pro is worth considering.In conclusion, while the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro may not be the top-of-the-line choice for audiophiles or hardcore gamers, it's still a decent purchase for those looking for reliable audio performance and comfortable design. If you're not overly picky and want a good headset at a reasonable price, give the BlackShark V2 Pro a shot. However, if you're seeking the absolute best in audio quality, you may want to look elsewhere.
