Description
Sadly, there are no RGB lights on the Kraken itself, but there are RGB LEDs on the underside of the stand. If you have additional Razer hardware, you can sync up the stand’s lighting with the rest of your rig. Again, if aesthetics are important to you, this combination of headset and stand is worth the price alone. If you don’t necessarily need an all-pink design, the Mpow EG3 Pro offers unique looks and other great features, with the most notable being its lower price tag. It delivers good value, even if it doesn’t make it to the top of this list. This is a 3.5mm wired headset, however, so just bear in mind that both the microphone and audio quality could be adversely affected by your motherboard's DAC/amp or whatever sound card/external device you plug it into. It shouldn't make a huge difference nowadays, even the cheapest motherboards have relatively decent audio, but worth sparing a thought for your holistic audio setup.
The big advantage of this headset is the low price point. You are getting a reasonable value for the amount you pay, but if better sound and microphone quality are important, you might look elsewhere. That being said, if you want something that looks cute, but you can’t spend a lot right now, the ONIKUMA gaming headset is a decent option overall. On top of this, this headset also features a hidden glasses cutout in the cushions. If you wear glasses, the Kraken won’t mush them into the side of your face – for anyone who has to keep glasses on while they game, this is an amazing addition. Speaking of cables, the inline controller on this device includes a wheel to control the volume. It is well put together and blends perfectly with the pink headsets’ aesthetic.The microphone is flexible and you can bend it up to the headband when you’re not using it. Also, the 7foot-long cable is designed for PC gamers. It can be difficult to manage if you’re plugged into a Nintendo switch or gaming controller. The Cougar Phontum is another affordable headset with enough pink color on it to make this list. It offers admirable audio quality, a decent microphone, and plenty of comfort. This pink gaming headset is bulkier so you will have some difficulties carrying it around and I can only recommend this for your PC/Console gaming setup and not for handhelds and mobile gaming.
Pro-tip: Usually, devices that connect via USB will need some form of driver to get up and running. For the price of the headset, you’ll get decent audio quality. While the sound quality will distort at higher volumes, the mix is fairly clear in mid-range settings. Besides that, you can use additional software to enable virtual 7.1 surround sound. Also, as is the case with many low-end wired headsets, the volume control knob can only change the volume of the headphones instead of the source device. Speaking of sound quality, this is another great option for gaming because it includes a 7.1 Surround sound system. Even though the soundstage capabilities are not as powerful as 360-degree THX, it does a good job of alerting you of enemies and gunfire (or any other sounds you need to be aware of during gaming sessions) very accurately.Another plus for this headset is sound quality, as those big earcups deliver some impressive sound. For the price you are paying, the audio quality is top-notch. The range is wide, and you won’t lose much quality at higher volumes as well. The bass is powerful as well, so it’s great for just about any gaming experience.
Regarding the style of this gaming headset, it looks like a somewhat conventional pink gaming headset with cat ears. Each headset that we test we use as our daily drivers for at least a week, that way we get to experience not just the sound, but what it's like to use each set of cans on a daily basis. The elastic headband doesn’t need to be adjusted manually as it stretches by itself every time you put it on. The headband doesn’t get very tight and yet sits comfortably and securely on your head. There is a decent amount of cushioning on the underside and it provides enough padding for your head. Due to working with PCs and what not, I'm reviewing the USB model which has a fixed USB Type-A cable and comes with a USB Type-C adapter in the box and has absolutely no issues. For people much cooler than me there's even an incredibly uncommon analog XLR option, which feels like it goes further to show off audio reverence in these devices. Sound quality is also important, and the Kraken BT delivers here as well. The headphones deliver great highs and a really nice thumping bass. There’s also no noticeable distortion at higher volumes. You would expect them to sound good for the price you are paying, so that’s definitely a positive. It’s nearly impossible to detect any latency over Bluetooth 5.0. If you need wireless headphones that will sound as good as wired, then this is a great headset.The audio quality on the mic is decent, but it’s not perfect. The noise canceling requires additional software, and it works alright. We experienced some distortion in the mic at times, but nothing to be worried about. If you are going to mainly use it for comms while you’re playing, then this mic should work fine for you. The DT 900 Pro X is almost surgical in precision, allowing me to hear layers of bass that hits just right. The Razer Kraken Kitty gaming headset uses a wired USB connection for power and audio. And since USB is better for PC gaming than 3.5mm aux this gaming headset is more geared towards PC/console gamers rather than handhelds. Besides, the 4ft long braided cable is too long for mobile gamers anyway. Best of all, the Phontum comes with a fair price tag. This isn’t the lowest-priced headset on this list, but they offer great sound quality and comfort for the price you pay. If you need a headset to help keep your gaming sessions quiet late at night, you’ll appreciate the little extra you spend here. Even our absolute favourite gaming headsets fail to go toe-to-toe with an ok quality desktop microphone. Audio Technica's new ATH-M50xSTS StreamSet headset says hell no to that, spend all that money on me instead.
First off, this headset looks very cute. It is pink all over, with removable cat ears included. If you are a streamer and you plan to wear the headset for a long time, you will appreciate the ears being separate from the headband. That way, they won’t dig into your head over long gaming sessions. In addition to its cute design, this headset is also very comfortable to wear. The big earcups are similar to the wired Kraken model. Unlike the wired model, though, this headset has a looser fit. If you have a small head or if you move around a lot while you are gaming, this headset is likely to slip off. If you wear a hat or have a lot of hair, this shouldn’t be a big problem. Surround sound is a big deal for gamers. Particularly those of you who play competitive FPS games as it allows for accurate location of enemy players via sound. growing from stereo to virtual 7.1 surround sound is a huge game-changer. The benefits don’t just extend to competitive gameplay, however, surround sound also helps to increase immersion in single-player games too. Many games these days are designed with surround sound in mind.As far as comfort goes, this headset is very comfortable and really lightweight at 230 grams. The large oval earcups fit very well, and the cushions are nice and soft. You can also slide the earcups up and down on the headset to get the right fit. If you spend a lot of time playing games on your PlayStation, you will appreciate how comfortable the PlayStation Gold feels. The Kraken BT appeals to a very specific type of gamer. If you want the cutest wireless pink gaming headset available, then this is an excellent choice. You will appreciate the great audio quality and long battery life, but you will have to get a stand-alone microphone if you stream or play with friends on regular basis.
