That triple tap button input is all I've been looking for. You have no idea how difficult it is to find this piece of information anywhere.

The versatile connection is honestly my favorite part of the headset. I don’t really have a lot of money so having a $100 headset that can be used wirelessly almost anywhere with an option for Aux as a last resort is so good. If you are someone like me who doesn’t want to spend extra money for wireless gaming headset and wireless Bluetooth headset for phones, the Barracuda X is a great option.

The mic sounds differently depending on what you use to connect, having it wired makes the mic quality at its best

Nice review. Awesome b-roll!

The Reviews are awesome, just found you out. I have some question about this, thank you so much Does the microphone work with bluetooth? And the clamping force compared to arctis 3 or hyper x stinger how is it? ( I have TMJ so most headset hurts my jaw)

great review!! dropped a like!

nice review Mat!! Does this headset compatible to iPad mini gen 6 ?

Let’s take a second to appreciate the camerawork here

Thanks for the review. Great value for money. I chose these over the steelseries arctis 1 wireless. :)

Street style headsets? I think I'm too old for these 😆 but great review as usual.

Have finally decided because of this review! This is very informative and you're really helpful! Thank you!!!! I'm going to be using it more on meetings but will also be using it with gaming on Switch. There are times that I have impromptu meetings and can only answer via tablet so I think this is for me. Most wireless headset doesn't support Bluetooth for the price range I'm looking for which is a struggle

How’s the feel of extended use with the cuff sitting on the glasses arm? I need to upgrade and my old pair of headphones would agitate the side of my head with cuff and glasses arm

So this is a good headset for FPS games? Btw, love your video!

This is honestly the most underrated headphone in the world right now, which happen to be wireless. Truly the jack of all trades, albeit master of none.

Nice review thanks! Never really been interested in RGB on headsets myself. Would you say that this is a good go-to option for about £100 or less? I haven't upgraded headset in years, so it's about time especially as Bluetooth means I could use it with my phone.

I just bought mine like 4 days ago. and to be honest im not totally satisfied for the headset. but it works fine for me. its just it didnt reach my expectation about the item HERE'S THE CONS and PROS in my own personal test. PROS. 1. You can connect both 2.4ghz and bluetooth at the same time. note: make sure to check if the version you have has bluetooth. 2022 version has it but older version dosnt so if your planning to buy this. ask the seller firts about the connectivity of the headset. 2. Ear Cups can be swivel so you can use it as a casual headset anytime anywhere 3. battery life is amazing. im playing like 5 to 6 hours daily ( not straight ) and until now i still have 60% of my battery 4. you can use it to anything like anything you can think of. PC MOBILE CONSOLE TV etc. note: XBOX can be connected via 3.5mm jack other than that you can connect wirelessly 5. it has 7.1 surround sound 6. you can charge while playing using 2.4 ghz CONS. 1. Bluetooth and 2.4ghz is not simultanious like you can only hear 1 at a time but there is a smart switch that you can switch to bluetooth and 2.4ghz with a tripple tap and if you are on 2.4ghz and someone calls you in mobile phone. it will switch automatically to bluetooth for you to decide if you will answer the call or not. (social media calls or regular sim calls) 2. Bluetooth connectivity is not that loud unlike you use it on 2.4ghz or 3.5mm jack. its like if your using it in 2.4ghz with half volume thats the only thing you can hear in bluetooth full volume. 3. there is only an app to control the EQ in Mobile phone but nothing in PC. 4. Swivel is facing front. i dont like it. hahahaha. i was hoping it swivels backwards so that it still good looking on you while your not using it and just hang it on your neck. but no biggie for me. 5. it doest have built in mic. so if your trying to use it on a mobile phone or anything else. you need to attach the boom mic so that you can talk to someone whos calling you. not good when your traveling though 😅😅😅 6. Razer give me a ACTIVATION code for the 7.1 surround sound software for pc that will only works on WINDOWS 10 64bit. i installed it and damn i dont like it while playing. I was testing it in a VALORANT game and the gun shots from the front and the gun shot from behind sounds exactly the same. so if your playing on it you will be 100% confused where those gun shots came from. but dont worry just dont connect it via razer 7.1 surround sound software and jus connect it via sound settings on you pc or laptop then it will just work fine. i think the 7.1 surround software is only good for MOVIE STREAMING. 7. lastly. sometimes when you just open up you pc. it will not automatically connected to your headphone. sometimes you need to unplug and plug it again so that it will work just fine. for me this is not a problem coz im using it on my laptop. but for the PC gamers. i think this will find them annoying coz the pc itself is far from them unlike the laptop user. im not sure about it but i think it will. coz even in my laptop sometimes i get annoyed even the plug is just in front of me how much more for those pc games whos their system is below them or sometimes hidden. LAST WORDS : im still satisfied about it coz of the price to value itself. i travel a lot and fly everywhere and this headset will cover my travel time and even have more. its wireless. light weight. comfortable. and not so much gamy headset design for cassual use. still love the product. and i hope it will last.

Look like a good upgrade. Not too expensive.

I bought it today and when I connected it to PS5, it didn't sound good with 90% of the volume. I heard that it produces high volume. Not expecting too much but for a 100$ headphones with 90% shouldn't give subtle with 90% high. Also note that I've kept the max with the vol wheel and ps5 headphones vol is 90. Is this expected or I got a faulty one?

between this and the hyperx cloud flight s, which should i get?

If i connect it to my PC via bluetooth, does the mic still working on discord app?

Guys just got the barracuda X 2022. The manual has all the instruction but didnt mention or its not clear how to charge it. How do you charge it? Is it okay to use samsung fast charger phone or only charge it in PC?

I have the older pair, these look much better. time for an upgrade

If I remove the mic, am I still able to talk with the headset? or the mic has to be installed?

Is it possible to use this headset like this: iPhone bluetooth for discord chat sound and usb-c ps5 game sound at the same time?

Does this light up?

Razer Barracuda X or HyperX Cloud Wireless? both headsets are the same price in amazon in my country.

As someone who's had the original Barracuda X, this makes me want to upgrade... the BT connectivity is clutch especially when playing with the Kishi.... but also, as someone who uses his Beats Studio Buds/Studio 3's... is there even a point in getting these?? The Switch OLED also uses Bluetooth audio...... I'm def intrigued.. great review also btw...

can anyone confirm if sidetone (mic monitoring) is on these? I know the Arctis 7x has sidetone and was looking for an equivalent

are they great to listen to music?

Does the eq on the app make them louder?

Please help the 2.4 usb wireless dongle only works as a remote for playing music. But there is no sound receiving in my headphones. The sounds only comes out on my phone's speaker.

so many headsets out now, was looking at a few of the corsair models. these seem pretty good - not many Razer products under £100!

“Kids dont lie” okay, i’m sold!

Hi Mat, great review! I have two questions for you - 1) Do I need a Razer app to use those headphones or app is required only to set up eq on smartphone? 2) Is noise cancellation that good? I mean - can you hear what you are saying while wearing those? I have Philips PH805BK and it is anoying me a bit that I almost can't hear what I am saying, but mine has ANC and leather-ish ear pads. Greetings!

hi i just had mine. i connected it to my iphone via bluetooth however the mic does not work in calls unless i attach the detachable mic. is that normal?

How does it compare to Corsair HS85?

does also anyone experience humming when u dont play any sound but u have the headset turned on? - the higher the volume, the greater the hum

So you can listen to your music on a smartphone via bluetooth without plugging in the 2.4ghz thingy? If thats the case this is literally the best design. All esports players usually play wired for competitive play so your coveres with the 3.5 no matter what, then you can detach the mic and wear them out n about. And you can leave the dongle at home? If thats true these are perfect. I somehow got 2021 model ones the other day, didnt realize theres no bluetooth, so their going back. Absolutely no reason a store should have 2021 models on the shelf still in november 2022.

Man, wish I got these for fathers day instead of those crappy primark slippers!! 😅

Are the earcups replaceable or at least can be taken off for cleaning?

hello, will others hear if I use a green switch keyboard.. tactile and clicky?

Is the mute button easly pressed in?Im disabled and game from my bed so im worried the mute button would be a problem when pressed against the pillow.If anyone could tell me if this would be an issue for me,I would really appreciate it.

Hi KitGuruTech, I have the Barracuda X 2021 version and when I plug the 2.4ghz dongle to my iPad PRO or my Galaxy Tab s8 and when I enable microphone on games like Call of Duty mobile, Discord, Apex Legends mobile, I only hear sound on the left side of the headset. But when mute the mic from the games it works normally and I can hear sound on both sides of the headset. Does the Barracuda X 2022 still have this issue when using the 2.4ghz dongle on the iPad PRO or Galaxy Tab s8 or any android phone on those games? Thank you.

I'm not able to connect it via Bluetooth can someone please help me out

I heard that the last model is very fragile. Is the 2022 version just as easy to break?

The new feature BLUETOOTH added should be reviewed on mobile phones (iOs, Android, Tab, Ipad). it's weird that Razer remodeled it with new feature and not talk about it. Just skip trough it. Make one video for mobile phones platform as well.

what phone do you use to connect the headphone using bluetooth?

Is there anyone who used it this whole time? I need to know if they still works fine cause i heard there are some connectivity problems

Does this works with RTX voice?

Does the microphone works while on wired mode?

Man, even on default the 2022 version is working like a subwoofer.

in my country rn its on sale for barely 60~ dollars

I'm having trouble choosing between this and Blackshark V2 Pro

Is there a big difference between this and its 2021 counterpart?

For anyone who has the headset can you switch from ipad/iphone/android bluetooth to 2.4ghz on pc if the phones/ipad is in a zoom meeting, messenger call etc? Mine won’t switch until I leave the meeting or calls

Does the 2021 and 2022 version have similar sound?

Does anyone know if this headset with Steelseries Sonar?

Got this headset about 5 days ago, i’ve had connectivity issues with the 2.4 ghz smart switch, not wanting to connect to my computer or the smart switch dongle, anyone else having issues or is it just my product?

Does your unit have a rattling noise when you shake your left earcup?

MY MIC DONT WORK????

Can I connect this to a smart TV?

does have Active noise cancellation?

Own them

does anyone know if this headset allows discord on mobile for voice chat, then game audio on the switch?

I can't believe I just purchased the 2021 version -_-

Hi, How is the latency when on BT and on gaming mode? And does it retain the gaming mode settings when you use it on other devices without the Razer app? Thank you

or just buy a good set of audio headphones...no rgb there

Bought this but end with disappointment. The volume sucks, the bass not good, just rough headset.

this heaedset is trash.. my bluetooth is not working

what a joke the video is sponsored by corsair

RGB Ruins Good Builds........................ Every step towards its Well deserved (and hopefully painful) Death cant come quick enough. Well Done Razer.

Every Razer product I've ever owned, broke. Razer's service did not fix any of them.

Ewww, loads of ads from you, not made by youtube with bad positioning. You were just trying to put there most ads possible, no meather how does it looks.

I felt triggered so I left a dislike to feel better.
