The Razer Barracuda X is a versatile, lightweight wireless gaming headset designed for seamless use on PC, console, and smartphones. With the support of smart dual wireless connectivity design, conveniently switch between high-performance gaming at home and seamless mobile use on the go.
Quick switch between Razer hyperspeed wireless technology and Bluetooth
With the ability to connect to a device via 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth simultaneously, SmartSwitch allows seamless switching between the two for unparalleled convenience. Calls from a connected Bluetooth device will be automatically handled, so you can easily take the call and switch back to game audio without ever removing the headset.
The Do Not Disturb feature can be enabled in the Razer Audio app if you want to block incoming calls from being handled, while a dedicated button on the headset allows you to manually switch between HyperSpeed Wireless and Bluetooth audio sources.
All-day comfort both indoors and outdoors
Whether you're at home on a gaming marathon or having fun during your daily commute, the Razer Barracuda X has you covered when it comes to your comfort.
High Performance Audio
The patented 3-part driver design makes it possible to hear extremely high, mid, and low levels that do not muddy, providing a more dynamic listening experience for deeper immersion. Upgraded with titanium-coated diaphragms for superior clarity, the drivers allow for truly vivid and accurate sound reproduction.
Advanced Capture & Control Whenever You Need It
Although the microphone is tuned to suppress ambient noise for improved voice pickup during gaming, it can also be easily removed to make the headset more travel-friendly for mobile use.

I have been using the headphones since December 2023 in combination with a Razer Seiren Mini desktop, mainly for calls via PC but also for games that benefit from surround sound. Their microphone is of good quality, and the buttons are in a practical position.
Their biggest advantage is their absolutely exceptional range with the use of the 2.4 GHz USB dongle. In a large house of 178 sq.m., they can be used wirelessly practically throughout the house, even with many intermediate brick walls.
Connectivity with Bluetooth is easy, and it connects easily to the compatible devices I tested (laptop, Chromecast HD with Android TV, mobile phone).
The sound is good, and I found it very satisfactory for both video games that can take advantage of surround sound, as well as for movies and series.
I am deducting one star because the only negative that has arisen is that the app for 7.1 is frankly terrible. When opening it on the PC, it will start from two to eight times without the 7.1 being activated, and I have to manually close all its windows before I can enable 7.1 normally through right-clicking on the background applications in the taskbar.

Under 90€, I believe there is no competitor in wireless. 3 connections: wifi, Bluetooth, and Jack; I don't know of another headset that has this. Nice sound, not very loud though, it reaches a normal volume. Very good microphone
Excellent product, to tell the truth, especially considering its price. I have connected it to my PS5 via the 2.4GHz adapter. I only have one issue, which I think is only happening to me, but it has only happened twice MAX. The sound has distorted for a few seconds, but it doesn't cut off, it just sounds very scuffed. A simple reboot fixes it. I have no complaints, and it has been very convenient for me since it is wireless, and it adds to the overall aesthetic feel. Additionally, I don't have to carry the controller everywhere. Lastly, when I go downstairs to the kitchen from my room, the connection is average since my room is far away from the kitchen. I am very satisfied and highly recommend it
I have had these headphones for about 1.5 years. Very satisfied I have to say all these 2 years.
POSITIVES:
Sound quality is very good for both music and gaming, I walk around the house wirelessly and the signal doesn't get lost when I listen to something, but the microphone sticks at a long distance and you sound like a robot but it's logical. The truth is that I have never tried them wired because I have an issue with the headphone jack and I never had the chance to use them that way. Also, you can use them while they are charging without any issues (it just makes a small sound while charging, if you listen to music or something else you have no problem).
NEGATIVES:
The only complaints I have are that (after 1.5 years) the microphone plays tricks on me and cuts me off while I speak (In this case I just take it out, blow on it a bit, put it back in the jack and it's fine). They have never fallen on me, just due to the plastic construction, they won't withstand a lot...
EXCELLENT, perfect sound, ability to switch between sides, mute button, connection with Bluetooth and with cable and with adapter for all desired options, excellent microphone, also comes with charger. Personally, I got them for gaming on Fortnite on the Switch and I think it's the best choice I've made. I highly recommend them
I don't know what to say about these headphones. They have very good sound, although there are better ones, of course. The connectivity is good, not perfect. Occasionally, when you open them, they may not connect properly to the computer and you may need to unplug and plug in the USB again, but it only happens once in a while. Recently, I also noticed an issue with my phone. When connected via Bluetooth on YouTube, the video sometimes freezes as if the internet is slow, whereas when connected with the 3.5mm jack, it plays normally, although the sound quality is slightly worse. Another negative aspect is that, despite being lightweight, they somehow tire me out and I haven't figured out if it's the design or something else, like the fact that they are wireless and emit radiation, I don't know, but they tire me out.
In the past, I had some Creative Sound Blaster 7.1 headphones, unfortunately, they broke, but they were better in every aspect
I come from wired razer kraken. I hesitated a bit to go wireless because of the potential delay that would occur. In terms of construction, they are quite high quality and elegant as headphones. Lightweight and isolate the sound quite well. Personally, I loved their sound! Very powerful sound and nice full bass! Their battery lasts quite a long time and their delay is minimal. Their microphone could be better. Personally, they saved me the hassle and I don't have to deal with cables all the time. Overall, I am very satisfied and would recommend them to someone who wants to go for wireless budget headphones.
Imagine paying 90 euros for headphones (Razer) and the software itself (Razer Synapse 3) doesn't support it, meaning you have to rely on the LED light to know the battery level.
The microphone is 3.5mm aux, okay, it's great in terms of quality but it's a shame.
With 90 euros, I expected much more.
Corsair, once again Corsair (Virtuoso), is the best.
After six months, my conclusions are as follows:
Quite good construction quality, I never felt that something could break (unless someone hits them out of frustration).
Decent sound, you can hear everything very well.
The microphone is very good, I never had complaints about not being heard or sounding strange.
The connectivity is as advertised, they start playing as soon as you put them on.
And finally, you just forget to charge them, their battery life is excellent.
It connects via USB-C dongle to any device you can imagine, from laptops and PCs to mobile phones and consoles. But it also has Bluetooth, so you can switch whenever you want and answer, for example, a call on your mobile phone. Of course, it can also connect to a PS5. Overall, it's very good. It has a clean microphone and very clear sound. It also has a metal stand! I don't know why they say it can break. Metal stands don't break, I don't think it will break.
Sorry guys, but I don't understand why everyone gave such a bad review to the headset. It's really very good, it has high-quality sound at max volume and the bass is very strong. Every time I listen to phonk on these headphones, I enjoy it. GET YOURS, I RECOMMEND IT
The adapter that makes it wireless suddenly broke while I was taking care of it like my own eyes for 5 months of minimal use, and the Mute button since the first day... go away, it's not worth it
Very good sound quality and comfort on the head after many hours of use. What makes them not worth their money, however, is their plastic construction, as with most Razer products under 100 euros. They broke in two months without much force.
