Review on Immerse In Gaming World With Razer BlackShark V2 X: 7.1 Surround Sound, 50Mm Drivers, Memory Foam Cushion - Compatible With PC, Mac, Console, And Mobile Devices - White Edition by David Perez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Amazing for Gaming, Noise Cancellation, Volume Adjustment, and Movie theater-quality sound.

My biggest concerns when buying headphones for gaming was Ear/Head comfort and maneuverability/adjustment of the headphones' ear pieces.I wear glasses all the time, and I've had a pair of JVC headphones before that always squeezed my head too tight and made my ears and temples hurt because the headphones were pressing my glasses too hard against my head. Conversely, I've also had Sony headphones in the past. Sony headphones are great for casually listening to music and watching videos and stuff, and they're very portable and easy to fold up and turn the ear-pieces in all different directions. Sony ones are also very comfortable as a result. The problem with Sony headphones - the coating around the foam of the ear pieces eventually wears off, gets full of earwax, and peels away over time, and the headphones lose their elasticity and become so loose around your head that they don't cancel noise anymore.I was looking for something comfortable and highly adjustable as a person who wears glasses all the time and didn't want cheap ear pieces that would lose their quality over time.After looking at several reviews online for different sets of Gamer headphones, I found the Blackshark V2 X Razer Headphones. These also come with movie theater sound that is very easy to set up on your computer as an additional audio output beside your computer's ordinary stereo speaker audio, as well as stickers for your laptop or the headphones themselves. These headphones may look strange and bulky at first glance, but they actually look very cool when worn, and are amazingly comfortable to wear. I've had these for several months now. The ear pieces have not worn out at all, and they rest around your ear, not against the ear itself, so no earwax will get on them, and nothing will be pressing against your ears. Unlike most headphones that have the volume controls on the cord, these headphones have a volume wheel you can twist/turn on the left ear-piece, as well as a mute button. This is far more convenient for gamers who can quickly reach up to change the volume instead of fumbling with a cord. The headphones look tight but are surprisingly gentle. They don't squeeze very hard because the ear pieces are large enough and soft enough to evenly distribute the pressure around your head so that it doesn't hurt. I've worn them for long hours wearing glasses the entire time, and they've never caused me a shred of discomfort. They're almost plush and soft by design, both the ear cushions and the arched frame of the head piece. The metal wires connecting the ear pieces to the head frame are extendable for height adjustment, but the headphones don't fold up very compactly for travel. Don't try to fit them in a backpack or purse. The microphone head is made of soft foam that can be removed if you desire it, but the microphone itself cannot be detached from the headset. The microphone is very malleable and can be easily bent into any position desired (not just up or down). The cord is bright green and divided into two parts. One half of the cord has a single audio plug connected to the headset. The other half of the cord is an extension that the first half can plug into that allows your computer to hook up to both the microphone and the headset via two audio plugs. This pair of headphones was worth it!

Pros
  • Advanced Passive Noise Cancellation: Sturdy closed earcups fully cover ears to prevent noise from leaking into the headset, with its cushions providing a closer seal for more sound isolation
Cons
  • May not work well with some mobile devices or consoles
