This is my first review on Scroutz because I thought I should inform someone like me who spent almost 200 euros on these headphones. (Random, but I had to make an introduction)
I am an everyday gamer with almost no specialized knowledge about computer peripherals, and I judge mainly based on my subjective perception of how good a product is according to my standards. Basically, all I care about is having good sound with clarity and comfort so that I can play for hours without my ears suffering.
1- At first, I found it very difficult to get used to them. I felt like they didn't fit well, and after 2 hours, I felt they were causing me headaches. I looked it up and read a similar case to mine that mentioned the same thing. After 1 month of use, I got used to them and they no longer bother me like they used to, maybe because the ear cushions have adapted to the shape of my ears... Or maybe I just adjust them out of habit and fit them properly on my head, so they don't tire me.
2- The sound is very good and helps you understand exactly where things are coming from. I always have THX on, but always on Auto since I couldn't figure out the settings, and overall, I think the manual profile of THX from the application needs improvement. The first time I tried it specifically in Warzone, it was just terrible... However, personally, don't fall into the trap that THX is something amazing as a technology and that you will hear exactly as if you were in a room above you. It's like applying a good EQ to your conventional 7.1 headset. Nothing more.
3- Battery. I won't say much about this because I don't have experience with Wireless Headsets. It's my first one, and I'm completely satisfied. It easily lasts a day of gaming (depending on what you have open from the application) and it can last a little longer. It also charges quite quickly...
4- Microphone... here you should pay attention. In some reviews I saw, they mention that the microphone is good to very good, while others say it's generally bad. Personally, when I used them for the first time and got on a call without anyone knowing I was wearing new headphones, everyone laughed and trolled me, saying that I sounded like I was in a cave. Yes, it's really that bad... The microphone of the Kraken 7.1 Mercury, which costs half the price or even less, has a microphone that is far superior to this one. However, in terms of construction, it looks good and gives you a good impression.
5- Build quality. The headphones are sturdy even though they feel light. At first, I was a bit worried about the metal frame, which is essentially the support of the headphones, that it would break easily or wear out, etc. But it's not the case at all, you can do whatever you want with them, and they have a nice feeling when you wear them.
In short, the reason I bought them is because they have the best sound for the price compared to the rival Logitech G Pro X. And because Razer has never disappointed me so far in terms of product quality and support. I was very disappointed with THX in general because I expected something better both in terms of technology and upgrades. I feel like they have neglected it, at least in terms of how usable it is for games like Warzone, PUBG, etc.
