      The Viper has better performance than the g pro sl.But the grip and the scroll wheel are more satisfasing with g pro sl
      Around the clicks the best is the viper and the problem with the g pro is that after 2 months of heavy use the clicks are moving around the mouse( the side buttons are kinda weird with the viper)
      Tbh i will go with the viper

    I bought 2 Kraken X in the span of a year. They both broke in almost the same position of the headband while I was trying to put them on. If you aren't extremely extremely careful while putting it on, this thing won't last.

  • @CarlosBalcazar0522
    @CarlosBalcazar0522 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The Kraken X is a great starter headset but the mic quality is a bit low, you have to put that mic really close to your mouth

  • @tomywu

    I have the cheapest version Kraken X Lite and it was great with good comfort and sound quality. But until its plastic headband cracked and I cannot use it anymore (see, Kraken cracks...). I would definitely recommend get the higher quality versions over the Lite version. V3 seems great but really not much differences to the older X version I think. And yes, BlackShark V2X is very good, I will take it over any Kraken headset

    • @ya7ioo
      @ya7ioo 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The Kraken headsets are extremely durable, but for some reason the Kraken X in particular feels like it could break AT ANY TIME. Source: I have both a Kraken X and had a Kraken V2 which lasted me 4 years. Definitely go for a normal Kraken or a Blackshark V2 X

    It's not very hard to understand. V2 and V3 are simply versions, iteration of the same base model. X is the code they use for theyr "budget" products. Stinking enjoyable videos as always, but the naming conventions of razer aren't really that confusing, other brands are far worse.

    yea I agree, i dont think the rgb is the selling point. If its wireless I'll buy it

      yeah I agree and at that price point it would be a fair deal

    Hi, I had a question. My motherboard is PRIME H510M-K. I wanted to buy a headset. Do you think I should buy a Black Shark or V3X?

    I just got them in a Costco bundle. There's a light, constant buzzing sound when I have them plugged in. Trying to figure out what's wrong, but as of now, going to stick with my logitechs haha

      I’m returning mine at least. Same sound for me, but only when listening to the audio. When no outbut, no additional sound is heard. Anyways, I would rather use a 10$ headset than V3X

    You're being too harsh on Razer. Also any product comes with its own set of shortcomings.

    Okay, what I understood is that the BlackShark's audio quality tops this small list with the 50mm TriForce drivers. Do you feel that the audio quality of the Kraken V3X is better then that of the Kraken X?
    To answer you about the RGB selling point, with a twist. For the Kraken Kitty stream reactive kitty ears I would pay that extra $20 over getting the Kraken Ultimate that only has the light up earcups. For the Kraken V3X over the Kraken X model? Basing the purchase on having the RGB effect alone? No I wouldn't.

    You've already compared them to so many other headsets but if I may ask, how does the V3X compare to the Kraken Ultimate? I really like the sleeker design of the V3X and was wondering if it compares to the Kraken Ultimate.

    • @ya7ioo
      @ya7ioo 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      There's not much point to buy the V3 X when it directly competes with the best budget headset at the moment. The Kraken ultimate is something different to the Blacksharks and Kraken X V3. The Kraken Ultimate is mainly marketed for high endurance and comfortable ear cups.

    read the specs saying kraken v3 x comes with 7.1 sound as compare to kraken x. does the blackshark have the 7.1 sound as well ?

    You cant even see the rgb when you have the headset on your head, why did they even bother adding that lol. Could have cut costs on that.

    Are these NATIVE 7.1 headphones? Because the Kraken Ultimate I have says it's 7.1 but it's actually 2.0 on windows when doing the speaker test thing

    Chroma is nice, but unnecessary. The fact that the Kraken v3 X is USB while the Blackshark v2 X is 3.5mm, however.... that can be significant. A lot of people are PC-only gamers and still have inferior onboard audio (for instance, I had to update my system at the start of the pandemic when prices were skyrocketing and parts becoming increasingly hard to find, and my Q2'2020 released mobo has a low end 2008 audio chipset - ALC887). Of course, people using more expensive DAC/Amps or with higher end onboard audio can find the 3.5mm a selling point over the USB.

      Blackshark V2 X. If you have really giant ears you might wanna look at the Kraken headsets (The kraken X is too small)

  • @ShalomGomez

    so i checked razer's website and found out that it still uses the same 40mil drivers same mic but its $20 more than the regular x cause it has rgb? not to mention the blackshark v2x is $60 with 50mil drivers and a better mic and better sound quality...I own a razer kraken x i love it but $20 extra to get the same one with just rgb added when i can buy a blackshark v2x for $10 more than the regular kraken x...it just doesnt make much sense imo.

  • @bryanyahveh
    @bryanyahveh 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    No, lol the one thing I do not like to have RGB, are my headphones. The last thing I want on my screen in the dark, is a rainbow flashing reflection on top of my head 😂 definitely not a selling point for me. Nice review though!
