I bought the Razer - Kraken V4 X Wired Gaming Headset because I thought they were a good value for the price.
I was right, they sound great! I use them mostly for PC gaming and listening to music on my PC. The USB-A, USB-C is a handy feature to use with my iPhone also. I was skeptical about the surround sound being as good as my 7.1 speaker system, but I was pleasantly surprised at how good the bidirectional sound actually worked! Things behind you really do sound clear and help when bad things are happing all around you! The bass response is good, but I did have to adjust the equalizer to add more bass, as I like the effect it has when things explode in my FPS games!
Also, the RGB color change on them is really cool to look at even when you’re not using them! My friend who I normally play with online with recommended the Razer head set stand and mouse pad as completes the package!
I can easily recommend these Razer - Kraken V4 X Wired Gaming Headset, and really any Razer product because of the quality and affordability!

This S has an excellent headset I would recommend it to anyone who buys it. I have not had one issue with it since I’ve had it don’t ever had it for about a month you take

I love them but there are only 2 issues I have with them: The first issue I have is the headphone width. As someone with a large head (my average hat size is an XL) it took some getting use to to not spread them past the breaking point. I assume after a while of careful putting them on and taking them off they will have some give, but it is a tight squeeze getting them on but when they are on they are comfortable on the ears. My second issue is the USB connector. to begin with, I thought I would have enough length to connect these to the back of my computer and run the cable from there. I do not have the length I would have liked, which is fine since I have front USB ports on my tower, which brings me to the connector issue. When I tried to pull the connector out of the back of my computer the smaller connector came out with leaving the USB part in my computer. With there being other USB devices connected I had to unplug other items to get the very small connector out. There should be a small lock on there, just my opinion.
Besides those two minor issues, they are great headphones and have amazing sound (both in 7.1 surround sound and regular sound) and the cushions are soft enough for long game sessions with minimal fatigue.

The Razer Kraken V4 X absolutely delivers on every front. From the moment I plugged it in, I was impressed by the crisp audio quality and surprisingly powerful bass. Whether I’m gaming on PC, PlayStation, or even my Steam Deck, the 7.1 Surround Sound creates a truly immersive experience—perfect for competitive play and cinematic storytelling alike.
Comfort-wise, it’s a dream. The lightweight build and soft ear cushions make long sessions feel effortless. The mic is clear and responsive, ideal for team communication without background noise interference.
I also love the versatility—USB-A and USB-C options make it compatible across all my devices, including mobile and tablet. It’s plug-and-play simplicity with premium performance.
For the price, this headset punches well above its weight. Razer nailed it with the V4 X. Highly recommend for gamers who want quality without breaking the bank.

The Mic Monitoring (Side Tone) is too quiet to hear over any other playing audio, even at 100%, which is a big downside for me as a home recording singer, and occasionally the microphone will glitch out and make weird noises that require me to restart my pc. Other than that, the audio quality is great and the 7.1 surround sound is comparable to the THX Spatial Audio in my old Razer Kraken TEs. For 60 bucks it's not bad.

They work great my son loves them. He says they block out, outside noises while he's playing his game so he can pay attention to the game. And his friends can hear him a lot better on the microphone then with his last headset.

Works very well, solid build, I like that the mic can be retracted into the headset itself. The mic itself comes out very clear. The cable can be a little bit annoying and it starts to bend in stubborn ways but at least it doesn't feel like it will randomly rip.

If youre buying this headset to use the ps5/ps5 pro, you will not be able to adjust the volume on the headset itself. This is not a Razer issue. Its Sony being Sony being too lazy to incorporate a software update allowing the headset to adjust its own volume

I previously had the kraken v3 headset and it finally died on me. This headset is very similar but has better features like the retractable mic. I’m definitely enjoying it.

They sound ok with my main pc. They didn't sound too good with my tablet. They sound awesome with my other gaming pc. The mic sounds great with everything I've tried.

I purchased this for my son for his gaming. He said the sound quality is amazing! He let me test it with a favorite song of mine, and I have to say, it was unbelievable! Considering that many gaming headsets are over $100, this is definitely a bargain and seems to be good quality for the price.
