Razer Barracuda X - Wireless Multi-platform Gaming and Mobile Headset (SmartSwitch Dual Wireless, Ergonomic Design, TriForce 40 mm, Cardioid Mic, On-Headset Controls, 50h Battery USB-C) Quartz Pink

I've been using the Razer Barracuda X for a while now and it's honestly exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is crisp and immersive, whether I'm gaming or listening to music. What really stands out is the comfort—super lightweight and perfect for long sessions without any ear fatigue. The wireless connectivity is seamless, and I love that it works across multiple platforms (PC, Switch, PS5, and even my phone). The detachable mic is a great touch—clear voice pickup and easy to remove when not gaming. Battery life is also solid; I can go days without needing a recharge. Overall, if you're looking for a reliable, all-around wireless headset that delivers premium audio and comfort without breaking the bank, the Barracuda X is a no-brainer. Highly recommended!

I’m really impressed with the Razer Barracuda X. The sound is super clear and really pulls me into the game. Switching between my PC, console, and phone is easy and works without any hassle. The headset feels really comfortable even after hours of use and the battery lasts forever. The microphone picks up my voice well and cuts out background noise, which is perfect for chatting with friends. The controls on the headset are simple to use and right where I need them. If you want a wireless headset that just works great and feels good to wear, this is definitely one to go for. Great Bluetooth connectivity although you need to manually connect it each time other than that great stability. Fits great of the head is adjustable and comfortable to wear over a long period of time. The value for money is great you get what you pay for, or in perspective even more!

Firstly, these are LOUD, and I mean I have to turn them down a teeny bit! Never had that before, all other headphones I always felt could have been a touch louder! Sound quality is exceptional, very clear, very clean and you can customise with the app. Oh and battery life is pretty long, maybe charge them once a week depending on use. Nit picking slightly, but downsides, occasionally I have to unplug the dongle and replug it on startup to make it work. Not a huge issue, very easy to do, but would prefer not to have to. Also, sometimes the headphones are in what I call "75% mode" as in they are at 100% but sound like they are 75%, and I have to go to volume mixer, grab the volume slider (which is at 100%) and pull it down, then back to 100% and its back to REALLY LOUD :D strange little bug, again no massive deal, but would prefer not to have to. If you can find these on a good deal, Id say I very much recommend them.

So, these headphones are marketed by Razer as "7.1 surround", but in reality they have two speakers in them, they're stereo. The 7.1 is a clever audio trick that's done by the Windows drivers. They make a silicone model of someone's head, put two microphones inside the ears and then move sounds around the head to simulate things happening in different directions. Clever software analyses the slight delay and the change in "shape" of the sound due to the shape of the ears and the head. They then create a "convolver" model from it. So, the sound comes from behind - they use software to twiddle with the sound to make it /sound/ like it's coming from behind, according to the model they built using the fake head in the lab. There are loads of these convolver models out there, and razer's one is... pretty good... But the reality is that the headphone are still just two mid-range speakers. They don't have the punchy bass to simulate some far-behind thumping noises, and they don't have the very high treble to simulate some water dripping from above accurately enough. So, to say they're 7.1 surround is like saying a ferrari can fly because you can technically load it up into a C130 and drop it out the back. Yes, technically, it'll fly, but it just won't be very good at it. So, when you plug these headphones in they'll start to work just fine, but they'll be stereo headphones. That's what you get out of the box on Windows and Linux. A decent pair of stereo headphones. If you want "surround" you need to install the special surround-convolving software/drivers. But these only exist for Windows. If you want to do it on Linux, you need to enable the filter-chain for "sink-virtual-surround-7.1-hesuvi.conf". But that convolver model is proprietary, so you need to go find the ".wav" file for a 7.1 model for it to convolve the stereo into surround properly. In short, getting it to be 5.1 or 7.1 is a faff on Linux. Doable with research, but a faff. Plus, you can only enable the filter chain for everything, not just the headphones. I did it, and I downloaded the best 7.1 hesuvi model I could find and played a bunch of games, and I have a sad revelation.... Playing the games in stereo was just as good. Adding the front/back element from the 7.1 surround just wasn't clear enough on these stereo headphones. The drivers just can't quite handle the clarity, they're too muddy. So, other than that, the battery life is excellent, the BT stability is excellent, the controls are fair, the recharge time is good, and the sound quality is... middling to good. The only strange thing for me is that they support usb charging, but they don't support being usb headphones. It would seem an obvious choice.. But no, they can be 3.5mm audio jack headphones when they're switched off (i.e. you can't even charge them when using them as standard headphones), they can be Bluetooth, and they can be 2.4GHz (with the dongle - more on this later), and can be charged when using Bluetooth/2.4Ghz. So, to the 'dongle'. It does seem to work well, and has a long range. But the phones don't seem to want to auto-connect to the dongle when they switch on. The dongle has a firmware bug (apparently) that means that you have to unplug it, and re-plug it whenever you want to re-connect the headphones after a sleep / reboot. That's just silly. Plus the Bluetooth is really quite good anyway, so I've just given up on the dongle for now. But the biggest thing for me is that the dongle takes up a USB port, and the phones also can take up a USB port when charging. If the phones had been designed better, the USB cable would have allowed them to be usb headphones. If the dongle had been designed better, it'd have had a USB 'in' port on the back, so the phones could just piggyback on the same port as the dongle. It's USB-C, so there should be more than enough current for the dongle AND the phones to work. I know these are midrange 'phones, but there are some curious design choices and strange quirks that make me think Razer slightly took their eye off the ball with these, especially claiming them to be 7.1 headphones. As standard, wireless, stereo, bluetooth headphones, they get a straight five stars. As multi-mode, 'gaming' 7.1 2.4GHz headphones, they get about 3 stars. For Windows support, they get five stars. For Linux support, they get three. So, it all averages out to about 4 stars for me. Good, but could be better at this price point.

Not worth it for the price. There are cheaper headsets with far better build/sound quality. Disappointed. They are tight on the head and cheap/plastic. The foam ear pads are so soft there is no point them being there as they offer little comfort. The buttons and volume wheel are stiff and not very responsive. The sound.... terrible. I have a £20 BT Sony headset that sounds miles better than this. Final thought, buy Logitech instead. Same price, far better quality.

Bis jetzt sind diese Kopfhörer die Besten, die ich jemals hatte - und ich hatte leider schon verdammt viele. Sound - der Sound ist sehr gut, der Ton ist klar, der Bass ist satt und die Geräuschunterdrückung funktioniert super. Sitz - durch die drehbaren Ear Cups ist der Sitz der Kopfhörer auf dem Kopf maximal angepasst. Es gibt auch nach 8 Stunden kein Schmerz und Druckgefühl. Da die Kopfhörer auch relativ leicht sind gibt es ebenfalls keine Nackenschmerzen. Ich selber habe 16 mm große Tunnel in den Ohrläppchen, weswegen ich große, ovale Ear Cups brauche, damit es nicht auf das Gewebe drückt und es zu keinen Entzündungen kommt. Das ist hier sehr gut gelungen. Verarbeitung - die Verarbeitung wirkt sehr hochwertig, das Material fühlt sich auf der Haut sehr gut an. Sehr schön finde ich, dass die Ohrpolster mit Stoffüberzug und nicht mit (Fake) Leder Überzug sind. So können die Kopfhörer länger halten, da es nicht abbröckeln wird. Etwas, dass man bemängeln könnte, ist, dass das Material sich schneller kleine schwarze Streifen/Kratzer einfängt, da es etwas samtig angeraut ist, was man durch den Transport in einer Schutztasche allerdings verhindern kann. Zubehör - mit im Lieferumfang gibt es einiges an Zubehör. Mit dabei sind ein separates Mikrofon, welches zu jeder Zeit abgenommen werden kann, ein Ladekabel mit USB und eines mit USB C Anschluss, ein Dongle mit USB C Anschluss, ein Konverter Kabel und ein Klinke Kabel, falls das Headset weder mit Bluetooth noch mit Dongle verbunden werden soll.

سماعة جيده جدا و ممتازه من ناحيه الصوت و الجوده و تحملها قوي افضل خيار في السماعات مقابل و السعر و الجوده

Its a great headset. We have 4 of them. It works fantastically with Windows 11 using either Bluetooth or the wireless dongle.

This is a great pair of headset with clear sound and perfect design and the best part it connects with my pc and phone at the same time so i can seamlessly switch. Its durable and light weight with great mic quality. Overall for gaming hybrid headset for casual gaming and music. If you want to do gaming, movie and music do not think just go for it. But if you want only for esports gaming i suggest go for Razer kraken or black shark.

J'ai acheté ce casque sans grande conviction car j'en aurais eu une utilisation plutôt gaming qu'autre chose, + je joue à des jeux de rythme donc la moindre milliseconde de décalage m'aurait dérangée. Et bien je dois dire que je n'en suis vraiment pas déçue. Je ne ressens aucun décalage. Le son est correct, et avec une bonne configuration d'égaliseur il est parfait. Le fait de pouvoir l'utiliser également en filaire et en Bluetooth est un plus. La dongle reste connectée à mon ordinateur, et le bluetooth pour mon téléphone. La qualité du micro reste plutôt bonne également pour un casque. Versatile, il répond à toutes mes attentes.
