PROS:
- Good build quality
- Retractable mic
- In-line volume control and mic mute toggle
- Closed headphone design for sound isolation
- Decent sound for games
- Pretty comfortable for long periods of time (even with glasses)
CONS:
- They're large and look kind of goofy outside your house
- Sound quality isn't that great for just listening to music
- Bulky for travel
My previous headset for my PS4 were the PlayStation Silver wired headset. Compared to those, the Kraken Pros are AMAZING. I'm not a big fan on-ear headphones (the PlayStation Silver headset), so I'm glad to finally own a pair of over-ear headphones (Kraken Pro). The sound isolation alone makes the Kraken Pro the better headset. As closed-back over-ear headphones, the Kraken Pro offer decent sound isolation, but don't confuse sound isolation for noise cancellation (you still hear the outside world).
Playing games like Doom or the Arkham series, games where you need to hear enemies from all directions, is fantastic. Voices and sound effects are loud and clear. It feels even more satisfying beating up thugs as Batman or blowing up demons in Doom with this headset.
I have my own separate headphones for listening to music, but I know some people use one headset for everything. If you want a gaming headset that's also fantastic for just listening to music, you might be disappointed with the Kraken Pro. Sound effects in games sound amazing, but just listening to music (compared to my Sennheiser HD558) sounds like you're using some cheap sub-$20 headphones. Again, I doubt anyone looking to buy these will use them outside of gaming, but I just wanted to give a heads up if you were thinking about just owning one headset in your house (don't).
The mic is decent, I haven't had any complaints from friends. I love that the mic is both retractable and flexible. The in-line volume control also has a switch to mute the mic as well.
Overall, I'm very happy to replace my old PS4 headset with these. I really love using this headset for gaming (I'll stick to my Sennheisers for music though) on my PS4.

I purchase these headphones after my vacuum ripped out the cord of my previous headphones. I went down to my local Best Buy...purchase a new headset and a 2 year warranty. They work great if you take calls from home.

Very comfortable to wear. Great sound. Microphone is a little scratchy, but not used that much. That's why a 4 instead of a 5 rating

I started looking at the regular Xbox One series of headsets, like the Turtle Beach and Polk audio. After reading some statistics and trying a couple in store, my gaze turned to the Razer Krakens. Even though they're a PC headset, they work seamlessly with my Xbox. The surround sound is amazing, and my friends online say the mic is the clearest I've ever had out of half dozen different sets. Very big win!

I bought these because the Razr reputation is solid. The headphones are subtle and appealing to the eye. The quality is great, but... the sound was just ok and I really didn't like how they fit over my ears. The retractable microphone was awesome. But in the end they were returned and exchanged for some turtle beach headphones I LOVE
