Thicker Headband
With the improved padding on the headset's headband even thicker, to relieve pressure on your head for lasting comfort. The Bauxite aluminum frame of the Razer Kraken makes it lightweight, flexible, and extremely durable.
Play Comfortably
Cushions with Cooling gel-infused reduce heat buildup, while a soft cloth combined with leatherette provides comfort and sound isolation, so you can enjoy Gaming for hours.
Improved cardioid microphone
The microphone of the Razer Kraken uses a cardioid pickup pattern so that your voice is captured clearly without unnecessary background noise. It rejects noise from the sides and back of the microphone, so your teammates always hear you loud and clear.

It's good but very heavy. After a few hours, they become very tiring. They are very heavy and have already started to peel at the top part that touches the hair after 3 months. I wouldn't buy them again and now I will pay more attention to the weight because for a long time I thought it wouldn't matter. They have good sound insulation, the cable is very good and it won't do those weird things that most headphones do. Where the cable breaks and you have to do tricks to hear. They have good sound and bass, I wouldn't say they have something crazy but the sound is clear. And very loud indeed. You can adjust it on the cable to choose how much sound you want it to have and you can turn the microphone on and off. I have to say they are durable because they have fallen off my desk several times and haven't been damaged at all.
razer kraken .....a name and a thing exactly! I got them as a replacement (warranty) for the kraken x that broke like for all of you in three months. these don't break! but they do wear out.... suddenly the left one stopped working after 1.5 years. I simply won't deal with warranty or with razer again! that's it! I opened it up to see, but you can't find a solution..... for the trash!

The cushion broke and started to peel in the first month, the rest I'm satisfied with! But not in the first month, come on guys, it looks like it's been two years of headphones
This is a very good choice for those who want to enjoy clear sound and noise isolation. However, after a few months, the microphone started having issues and I don't sound as clear on Discord, etc.
the left earphone lowers the music volume by itself and I have to place the cable in a specific position to fix it. Generally, I wouldn't buy them again
After 1.5 years of having them, a very good review. First, with the negatives: when they are connected to the PC without any program, something is heard that you hear on Discord (it also happens on PlayStation). For example, if you are listening to music, everyone else hears it too, as well as with the games you play, YouTube; you can't do anything about it. A relatively good solution I found is to have Nvidia Broadcast, which solves this little issue, but not successfully. After a while, the plastic on top, which is on the upper part of the plastic, comes off. I don't know if it's due to humidity or whatever, but I thought I should mention it. Now for the positives: they have very good sound, very good bass; in general, you don't have any issues with what you hear. The microphone is mediocre to bad, the cable is quite long, you can reach all over the room without literally taking them off. In general, I wouldn't recommend these headphones; for their price, they are not worth it. There are much better options at a much better price, or spend $20 more to get better ones. I give them a 2.5/5
First of all, after 3 years, the right earphone broke down, something I did not expect from such an expensive earphone. In general, Razer products have poor build quality. I also have a Razer BlackWidow keyboard for almost 4 years now, and while playing suddenly stops working and the buttons press on their own. I bought it for 70€, a huge amount for just a peripheral. Overall, stay away from Razer!
I have owned these headphones for over 4 years, I have bought them twice. I am both satisfied and unsatisfied with these headphones because after about 1, 1.5 years the left earpiece stops working. After 6 months, the right earpiece also stopped working. The same thing happened 2.5 years ago with the same model of headphones. Good headphones, but a little fragile...
VFM, the most valuable headphones in their category. They lack a bit in bass and the microphone is a bit low, but they have a very good volume control and overall they don't tire out in extended use (8+ hours).
I own this pair of headphones for the past 2 years and they are pretty good.For the past 2 years I only have 1negatives.The quality of the microphone was not that good for gaming and that made me by a pair of a microphone.
Owner of this particular headset for 2 years, I have to say that they are good headphones with satisfactory sound and microphone. The only thing that bothered me is that the leather on the headband peels easily.
The cable broke after 2 years. It didn't sound loud from the beginning when I bought them and I had issues with the microphone, which didn't work many times.
1 year with daily prolonged use, the cushions that some mention didn't have any issues and overall were in good condition, but it had its problems with the jack, so I had to return them. Sound and microphone are very good
The headphones are good, I can't deny it, but after a while they start having problems with the sound and I have to take them out of the jack every now and then to get back to normal sound. Overall, the headphones are good.
They have very good and high-quality sound. Keep in mind that the "leather" on top will start peeling off after a while, along with the ear cushions that are next to the ears (pair owned for 2+ years)
I have them almost a month now and it’s incredible how they isolate the environment noise how clean the sound it’s and the microphone voice. Totally recommend them
I have had them for 3 years and I have to say they are the best for any use. Whether you have them for gaming on your PC or on your mobile, I recommend them to everyone
I have used them for just over 4 years and they still work (although the leather has worn out a bit). For their price, they are very good but with minor flaws such as a mediocre to poor microphone and relatively poor sound isolation. Overall, they were comfortable and durable
The best headphones I've ever had, perfect bass and sound, excellent sound isolation and construction. For those who are afraid the cable might get damaged, it doesn't take anything
This is not the first time I have purchased these particular headphones, but the first time I bought them from a physical store (Public) in 2018 after 4 years (2022) they broke and I had to buy new ones. I decided to buy the same ones from here (skroutz) since it was the most reliable choice I had (for the headphones). However, when they arrived in my hands (they arrived very quickly, I was impressed!), the weight of the new headphones was different, lighter, and also the microphone came out of its position more easily. I noticed these because I had them side by side, BUT!!!! the sound quality was perfect
Simply, after a long period of time, no matter how much you take care of it, the top part comes off a bit. This, like leather, and the cable is very sensitive, it requires great care in its use, you might not hear the headphones from one side. And if you want to raise the volume a bit from the knob and not touch it, or you might pull it out and put the cable back into the port.
HEADPHONES!! The best sound I have ever had... crazy bass and if you know how to adjust it, even better! However, after 4 years from the date of purchase, the left earphone stopped working...
They have great sound and bass, the sound is powerful and they have very good build quality. They are also comfortable on the ears and head. They are worth it fully
They are the best gaming headphones for their price.
Powerful sound, comfortable, soft cushions, good microphone.
But I do not recommend them for mobile phones
They are not worth their money, they have bad bass and the fabric has worn out since the first month. Also, they have poor sound isolation and after many hours, they feel very heavy on your head. However, they have a very powerful and clear sound
Incredibly good acoustics. I've had them for 3-4 years and they haven't broken. The microphone is amazing with great quality. When I got them, they were 80€, but now that the price has dropped, it's even more worth it to get them. I've dropped them many times in anger and they were still fine. The only negative is that sometimes the sound only comes out of one earphone, but this can be fixed by adjusting the jack or adjusting the volume. Nevertheless, the headphones are fantastic and I absolutely recommend them.
An excellent choice for someone who wants to spend 40-50 euros on something of quality. It was purchased for 44 euros and was definitely worth it. Clear sound, very good microphone, and quality construction (not cheap plastic). Perhaps the only downside is their weight, which can become tiring after a few hours of use.
Generally, I am a user who, whatever type of headphones and generally audio equipment he gets his hands on, they break after two to three months. These specific ones have taken a lot of beating without any exaggeration and are almost as good as the first day I got them. By the way, I've had them for almost two and a half years and they're still alive.
