Overall good sounds quality and pretty comfortable, only downside is it sometimes disconnects from my console like it won’t let me hear the sound even when it’s connected, but it usually comes back if i just disconnect and reconnect again.

Best headset I’ve ever gotten as of now, I tried using many other brands like Logitech and Corsair and honestly this is one of those headsets that can easily compare to those other big brand names and imo can far surpass them, very comfortable, good mic, great packaging, and best of all an affordable price.

the headphones turn off randomly when nothing is playing so i do not recommend them for that reason, they're comfy and light to me, they're a little tight but it has gone a way a little, gets annoying to have to turn them on so much but i mean they last battery wise, forever i don't even keep the charger on my desk anymore but again that auto turn off is super annoying and i wouldn't recommend if you constantly are watching videos pausing and coming back, the bluetooth is nice though.

Works perfectly with PC, PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch and mobile devices thanks to the included USB-C dongle and Bluetooth support. Razer TriForce 40mm drivers deliver clear, detailed audio with deep bass, making gaming and movie experiences immersive.

Audio: Fantastic, especially for gaming competitively, better than my Steel Series Arctis 7 Pro Wireless in that regard, and they are also great everyday listeners as well.
App: Has great EQ and features, no bugs.
Microphone: excellent considering the price, it has good noise cancellation and does not make your voice sound weird or muffled. It is clear and accurate.
Battery life: Absolutely fantastic, I use heavily, around several hours a day or some days, and I don't need to charge usually for several days or even a week+
Build Quality: Plastic is cheap, mine was defective, and I'm returning to razer for refund to purchase one of their aluminum higher priced headsets because I loved this one so much. Be careful with yours.

These headphones are just fantastic! Very comfortable which I was hoping for since I've got ears that most headphones don't fit in. Sound quality is excellent for the price! Highly recommend for gaming as well as just everyday music listening

This product is very nice. If you are looking for a quick replacement, and a not so expensive Gaming Headset. Try this. It is pretty cheap; sound audio is loud and clear, pretty comfy, and the mic is replaceable, and it is easy to use. Would definitely recommend this product.

My Review on the RAZER Barracuda X

This headset gives you the best gaming experience. The reason it is one of the best gaming headsets is because you get Bluetooth, wired connected, and wireless connection with a usb from any console, pc, or laptop you’re using. RAZER even has an app to maximize your sound experience as it offers a personal EQ in the app. Overall this is one of if not, the best headset I have ever had, and I plan to buy more of razer’s products in the future.

I bought these for gaming on my laptop while connected to my theatre TV, the sound quality and volume are great, and they are lightweight, and very comfortable. I do get a little warm after a couple hours, But I run hot too. They are much more comfortable and cooler than the Plantronics over the ear headphones I replaced with them.

Amazing headphones. Haven’t had issues with battery life. I used them for gaming and enjoy the fact I can remove the microphone. I’ve started to use them for work to block side conversations and muffle a nosy office and it has worked well. And because it comes with a headphone I have used it for work meetings. It has served a dual purpose for me

Out-of-the-box Razer Barracuda:
Pros:
- mic handles background noise pretty well
- rf range works pretty far, even down/upstairs
- decent noise isolation
- price $70
Cons:
- doesn't support audio mixing
- switching between audio sources kind of annoying
- headband could be narrower and curved flatter/rounder
- earphones tend to pinch your head, removing the headset after a long session is like taking off a wig at the end of a day
I'm looking for a lightweight wireless gaming headset with Bluetooth for both work (Mac) and gaming (PC, console, mobile). This does pretty much everything, but it still fits a little too large while also squeezing my head a little too much. I suppose this makes the noise isolation better, but that's not a priority for me. If the length and curvature of the headband could be adjusted, the weight might be distributed better and the headset might pinch less. I know the instructions say to gently bend the headband before first wearing, but that just makes the headset fit wider on top. Plus, I wouldn't want the headband to break quicker. Cycling through different audio channels using the single power button is a small inconvenience. Overall it's a great value, but less than ideal.
I would love it if Razer made a different model that can fit smaller heads more comfortably and that supports dual device audio mixing. I am still deciding between the Barracuda and the Logitech G735, which does have audio mixing and fits better. I'll see which headset I reach for more often.

Wonderful product with a strong battery life and plenty of options to use. Microphone is okay, but very usable in many situations. Bluetooth works fine.
Very user friendly. Absolutely worth the price.

A new upgrade from the USB -C type headset from last year, with the new functionality of Bluetooth! Wireless connection makes this gaming headset versatile for on the go and at console/pc!

I love these headphones! I bought these headphones specifically for working from home and they are great! If you work for a company and have to use USB headphones but want Bluetooth these are great. I haven't had any issues. I use the USB cable and the dongle. I have the Razer Kraken Kitty BT ones and decided to stick with the same brand. Of course big plus that they are bubble gum pink !
