Based on 1 year's data from Feb 25, 2026 How it works
I would say that Razor is NOW making shit headphones because my Razor Kraken v1 headphones have worked for years and have been great until the cord started failing on me.
I wasn’t trying to defend razer, I’ve just been surprised because I was always happy with their products. I had a kraken 7.1 v2 whatever and it lasted 4 years and then I gave it to a friend when I got an interface, xlr mic and studio headphones
Hows yours holding up? Mine legit just fell apart on me after less than 6 months. Wish it had the same build quality as my original Kraken from 5 years ago that I "upgraded" from.
I have razer kraken wired version bc tbh I can't hear the difference between something like that and the audiophile headphones. I turned off the bass boost and it sounds great to me for what I need it for - game audio and being in voice with my friends - and I like a built in mic instead of a desktop stand mic. Background isolation seems good as it doesn't transmit my bf talking in the same room. Comfy enough to wear for 8 hours at a time also, but I dont wear glasses so if you do can't vouch for that.
I had a pair of Razer Krakens (wired) back in 2015 and they were absolutely spectacular for non gaming use. I've used a lot of flagship headphones and I still look back really fondly on the pair.
I've had 2 gaming headsets, first it was a Steelseries Siberia, then a Razer Kraken, but then I got to know someone at work who is into sound. He convinced me to buy a HD 650 and by god it was a different tier. It was so comfortable, but 5-6 years ago I've changed it to a HD 800, purely because the same friend sold it to me £500, pretty much half price and he took good care of them too.
I got my razer kraken 6 years ago for 80€ and still love them
Razor Kraken is good Edit: whatever you can't win on Reddit I give up. Every post I try to post I'm not allowed to talk in the comments because of bad karma and the ones that I am allowed to talk in everybody always gives me negative reviews no matter what I say. I'm sorry I can't afford beats by Dre but if you're looking in the $50 tier The kraken is a good headset I've owned one now for over 2 years and it's just fine for playing call of duty it has good base and good quality microphone but yeah if you're going to compare it to some $400 headset probably not
Had great luck with razer’s mice in the past so i recently picked up their kracken headset and its good so far
I have the artis nova 7 from an older gen and have been the best so far. Super light and comfy but sturdy. Had razer kraken before that and were decent hut prefer the steelseries
