Razer - BlackShark V2 Pro (2023) Wireless Esports Gaming Headset for PC, PS5, PS4, Switch - Black

Very great headphones for a decent price, build quality is amazing it feels light but sturdy and flexible. Comfortable on the ears and you won't even notice they're there. Sound quality is decent and they have the razer app which you can tweak it through. The mic quality is astonishing on these things it sounds like I'm a professional streamer or artist whenever I'm talking to friends in a party. The only problem I have is connecting to my asus zephyrus g16 laptop via the USB dongle worked once and then never worked again and I've had to settle with the convenient bluetooth option it has. (could be a windows 11 problem on my end) The headphones also connect to your phone or other devices. Overall these headphones look, feel, and sound premium.

First, this headset is excellent for sound, comfort, battery life, and connectivity. It just doesn't stay in one piece. In 9 months (7 months of use), I've had to replace the headset twice. Both times, one of the plastic connectors joining the earpieces to the headband cracked, ending up completely shattered on the inside. The first break occurred after 3 months of regular use, under normal wear and tear. Razer replaced it under a "one time exception" to their warranty policy, but it took 2 months all told to get the replacement back from them between back-and-forth debates on "defect in manufacture" and "user abuse" and apparently the replacement request getting lost in several stages of warehousing. I will partially own up to the second incident, though - I put the headset in my carry-on bag for a flight over the holidays, without packing it back into the foam-lined box it's sold in, and it had a partial crack when I landed. Some reinforcement with electrical tape got me through another month, but once again the plastic ended up as a shattered mess with the earpiece hanging loosely by a cord. This time around, I replaced it through Best Buy's accidental replacement plan, and decided to give the model one last chance - though I'm leaving room in my budget to upgrade to something more durable in the near future in case third time isn't the charm. To the headset's credit, though - I use it for an average of 10 hours a day (work from home, social video calls, music, videos, gaming) and, when it's intact, I couldn't ask for a better headset. It's comfortable to wear, it can last for days (though I try to charge it every night or two), and it switches pretty easily between devices. I wouldn't call myself an audiophile, but the sound quality is fantastic, especially when you're plugged in to a PC for THX support. Overall, I'd *cautiously* recommend this headset if you're willing to treat it like it's made of eggshells, and if you get an accidental protection plan from the seller rather than the manufacturer (can't give Razer customer support many points, unfortunately). But you're probably better off looking for a different product line - this one seems to have the complex technology down, but not the basic engineering.

This headset is very comfortable, and sounds amazing, not just for a razer headset, but for any level of headset. The weight is good, and can be worn for hours at a time. This is my second device, because the first device broke, This is the only reason this is not a 5 star review, even with the break, the headset was so good, i ran out and bought another which i think speaks to how good in function the headset is. Also another positive, while the process was lengthy, Razer, after a bit of push and shove, warrantied the original headset, which has to be seen as a positive ultimately.
