Customer Ratings & Reviews

This headset as a headset is VERY comfortable. I have a huge head, and its quite comfortable maxed out. I have a very nice wireless headset from a competing brand, but I've started using this one more often because that other one hurts my head after a couple hours, even maxed out. The sound is amazing, the THX spatial audio rivals/beats the other options I've tested also. The Hypersense is cool on high for a bit, then gets annoying. It goes according to what you're hearing, but on high, it just felt like the right side of the headset was going nuts vs the other side, even when I would rotate my character towards the noise. I found that setting it to medium was the best for me, a good bit extra oomf than a normal headset gives in bass, but not overly buzzy or distracting. I wouldn't call it a gimmick, it works as marketed, but it could be better, and I bet they'll get there. (Sidenote: It is a positive that they let you completely turn it off in Synapse, as I tested it on a work Teams meeting just for laughs, and it was terrifyingly buzzy when anyone talked.)

Man, love the fact they look so cool. Not only that but the fit is perfect for my medium sized head/face. Sound is equal at least to me to my more expensive headset. I love the fact that it’s wired and it’s plenty of wire so it’s not an issue. Overall this is a fine product that can compete with the best headsets out there. They are comfortable easy to use and… R G B effects!

I love this headset, comfort, RGB, Sound, all around excellence.

The Kraken V3 HyperSense is an awesome gaming headset. The build quality is excellent, setup is easy and sound is amazing. The Razer Synapse software is solid and will allow you to customize the sound, RGB, update drivers and more! The comfort level for me was decent. I wear glasses and after a long gaming session I could feel some pressure points on my ears but that was after several hours. Would be nice if they could have some softer foam in the upper part of the earcup to help with this. On the headset there are controls for volume, mic on/off and a button to control the HyperSense haptic technology. The microphone is mounted on the left and is high quality! The HyperSense itself is an amazing feature that provides next level immersion. Having your head rumble during explosions or other high action moments in games is so cool! One thing I want to note about the HyperSense is that you will probably want it off or set very low while watching a movie or listening to music. If it is turned up too high you will get rumbling throughout your head during dialogue or quieter parts of music. To me the haptic feedback felt very artificial in these instances. If you’re in the market for an excellent Razer headset with incredible immersion, then pick this up!

These are the best headphones I ever had for gaming. I usually use cheap earbuds for gaming, but now I am fully converted. The sound quality is pretty outstanding and it blocks distracting outside noise. The haptic feedback is a game changer!!! I also use these for conference calls with no problems.

It is a great product. The sound quality is fantastic, the haptic feature is great, and it feels like it is not going to fall apart. Overall a great purchase.

i like them very much, super good bass feature great for hearing footsteps in games like counterstrike 2

I have owned many Razer products over the years including mice, keyboards, and headsets. These products helped give me a competitive edge while gaming. I currently have two gaming systems in my home but only one headset that I move back and forth depending on where I want to game. Needing to add another headset I was excited to get the Razer Kraken V3 HyperSense wired 7.1 surround sound gaming headset. In the box you’ll find the headset, the detachable HyperClear Cardioid Mic, and a manual. I was immediately impressed with the build quality of the headset. The steel reinforced frame feels really well made. The Razer Kraken V3 looks very similar to my other Razer headset which makes sense since it is the Kraken 7.1 V2. Improved here however is a noticeable addition of padding on the headband. After attaching the mic I was eager to slip them on. The thick padding on the head band and the memory foam ear pads make them feel extremely comfortable. I also noticed a mic on/off button and a volume control knob on the left ear cup. On the opposite ear cup you also find a button to control the intensity of the Razer HyperSense. All of these on headset controls will come in handy to easily make adjustments while in game. I was now eager to try them out. Upon plugging the cable into a USB port I was somewhat disappointed by the stiffness of the cable. Hopefully it will relax over time. The Razer Synapse 3 software installed automatically when connected to my pc. Probably because I had the prior version already installed. During the installation you can opt to install additional software modules or you can install them later within the Synapse app. I was happy to see Alexa included. Upon launching Synapse it prompts you to sign up for an account or you can sign in if you already have one. Within the app you find a multitude of settings on various tabs for sound, mixer, enhancement, mic, and lighting. As I joined a game the real disappointment started. First off you’ll quickly notice the Razer HyperSense effect which provides haptic vibration feedback from the ear cups based on the noises during gameplay. I found this feature to be incredibly annoying and distracting. I’m betting you will too. Next I noticed while listening to my mic that I had a few millisecond delay and my voice sounded off, somehow unnatural. I’m assuming due to some processing of the audio signal. As I continue gaming I found the sound muddy with somewhat of an annoying echo. I also found the surround sound to be oddly non-immersive. It just wasn’t seamless as you moved through an environment. The sound instead seemed to drop out periodically. Razer states in the included paperwork that “sound is just as important as sight when you’re in game”. I could not agree more. Being able to clearly hear audio cues in game gives you an incredible edge against other players. But so far the Razer Kraken V3 wasn’t giving me an edge. Instead I was experiencing multiple distractions to my gameplay. After adjusting settings within Synapse 3 I found that turning off HyperSense and THX Spatial audio helped correct some of these distractions. But, I’m baffled why I would need to turn off 2 features in order to improve audio? Overall I’m not a fan of this product.

The Razor Hypersense Headset is built beautifully. The padding Material is very comfortable to wear for long periods.The quality of the audio is pretty good and with the hyper sense option it takes gaming to another level, making the sound of a bomb feel like you were there.The Microphone is great BUT its attachable, which I can probably loose it easily. I would prefer already attached to the headset. Other than that its a very great headset.

Good headphones, hypersense haptic feedback is surprisingly very good. The free shipping was fast so that was good.

Came in early and was in great condition! I got it for my brother and he loves them! Very comfortable.

Great headphones but volume knob doesn’t work on ps5

The headphones are good but the sound on the mic isn’t too great

- Constant loud buzzing sound in ear - Poor audio quality - Uncomfortable - Mic had issues straight away
