Good quality sound and the noise blocking works great

No problems connecting to the PS4. The mic is very reliable.

good headset good for gaming my son likes it a lot

It’s alright but the sound could be higher when you play games but when you use the game enhancement the game sounds extremely distorted

Did not feel the quality of the tri force drivers. Other headset that I tried like g pro or cloud 2 were similar.

The build quality is good but I did not like how this sounded playing Warzone. Everything seemed so far away. I tried it with and without the sound card and still the same. When compared to my ANC Jabra headset I prefered that over these. I compared these to some old Hyper X clouds and those sounded better too. I was hoping for better but this did not deliver the goods.

Excellent product. One down-side is how bulky they are. I feel like I am about to board a helicopter.

Too quiet for my taste i expected to have more volume . I decided to return . You

Sound quality for these headphones is actually fairly impressive for the price. It’s not going to knock your socks off by any means, but for the price you are getting a very solid gaming headset. The mic quality isn’t terrible, but it’s not bad. Honestly I would give this a 4.5 rating if it wasn’t for the headset durability. Warranted I have a larger sized head, these headphones don’t last. I’ve been through multiple sets this past year (thank god for GSP) and it’s extremely frustrating only having a headset for a few months and having to replace it. If you buy this make sure you’re protected, it’s worth it.

I really like this gaming headset for my job. I work from home and they help reduce outdide nouse and gir over both my ears which is a plus since im hard of hearing plus the are eired which i need for the job also.

Expensive for quality. Better options on the market for similar performance.

Works great for teams and Webex if you don’t use the usb dongle!

The Razer Blackshark V2 is a wired headset with esports gamers in mind. It has a lot of features, including a new headphone driver design and an included USB sound card with THX Spatial audio. Does it live up to the hype, and can it be worn for hours without making your head feel like it’s being crushed by the Mountain? Let’s find out! Opening the box, there is a bit of paperwork, and then the headset, cable, and USB sound card all attached together in a drawstring bag. Even though it looks like the cable might pull out of the headset, don’t try! It’s permanently attached to the headset. The cable has a higher quality braided jacket, but I personally really hate attached cables. It makes the entire headset dependent on that cable not getting a short in it. It also means you can’t detach it for travel, so you have to have a case or the included bag with space off of the ear cup to pack it. Finally, you can’t put on a shorter or longer cable (without an extension) to suit your setup, if you use a controller for audio, you will need to use the attached cinch on the cable to control the slack. Moving on from my annoyance with the cable, the headset has a lot going for it. The controls on the left ear cup are easy to use, with a detent at 50% volume so you know where you are easily. It also has a push button mute/unmute. The headband is nicely wrapped with soft material on the top and memory foam on the bottom. The adjustment is interesting – it is just a pull down to adjust like most other headsets, but there are two thin black steel wires that connect to the ear up hinges. It doesn’t allow the ear cups to pivot to lay flat, but it’s extremely light and allows more air circulation around the ear cushions. Wearing the headset is a dream. I actually forget I’m wearing them. They are incredibly light and the clamping strength needed to hold them is so low that you can wear them for hours without a headache. The memory foam ear cushions just form to your head and it all feels right without getting hot. Plugging in the USB sound card automatically launches the Razer Synapse software installer. Having to create an account is mildly annoying, but so common now that you barely notice. The software gives a lot of control over the sound and microphone, and the ability to tune the THX spatial audio to different apps or games, with automatic audio profile switching. The card will work with any headset, so if you decide to use something else some day you can still retain control over your audio. It adds a lot to the value of the kit. The microphone is good, comms were reported as clear and easy to understand by others I was playing with. One little thing – when the ambient noise reduction option was enabled, it dropped my mic volume overall, so I was harder to hear speaking with my natural voice level. No one reported any noise getting in anyway, so I left this setting off. The software/sound card also allow the mic audio to be fed back into the headset, avoiding the “shouting into a cave” effect when wearing fully enclosed over the ear headsets. Finally, the audio! Razer promises a best of all worlds with the titanium coated triforce drivers in the headset. The theory is that different parts of the single driver diaphragm have their own tuning, so the one driver can provide better sound for the highs, mids, and lows. Does it work? Yeah. The sound quality is really great, playing games or listening to music, this headset can do it all. At this price point, it is a great value. It also does a good job of isolating outside noise without fully active cancellation. I like ANC in the right situation, but it comes with a ton of tradeoffs (and more cost) and isn’t needed for most gaming environments. The spatial audio effects work very well – using both the THX audio included with the sound card, and Dolby Atmos for Headphones on my Xbox, the simulated surround sound is really convincing. Spatial audio needs well balanced and capable drivers to work right, and it works great here. Compared to my other headset (in the same price range), which lacks bass, it is much easier to pinpoint sounds with this headset using the same sound card and spatial audio settings. Overall, at this price point, this headset is fantastic. The Triforce drivers are the real deal, and the included usb sound card gives a lot of control. The headset would be pretty close to perfect if the cable wasn’t permanently attached. It’s enough of an issue for me that it cost the headset a star, but I would still recommend it for the sound quality and incredible comfort.

Decent headphones, except mine died in about 8 months

Upgrading from my Krakens. After 10min of wearing, my ears were on fire! Very uncomfortable. Not a fan on how they adjust either. The volume knob on the side is accessible and a nice touch
