+ No useless bloatware that you have to install to get these to work, I much prefer plug and play devices to required 3rd party software. Again, great choice Razer. Please keep doing this.
+ Not just for gaming, it has surprisingly good sound for the price, if you intend to listen to music and watch Movies/TV Shows, this has an ideal sound signature. I love having Spotify on in the background, and this headset doesn't make me want to grab my Sony XM4's instead. Very impressive for only $100.
+ Flat EQ, which is rare for value headsets. Razer knew they had good drivers so they didn't need to mask the mids/highs with lifted bass.
+ USB-C, charges from 0% to 100% in 3 hours according to the manual.
+ Lightweight with medium clamp force. Not nearly as light as my previous HyperX Cloud headset, the force of those was ridiculously light, but it's still comfortable to wear for hours at a time.
+ You don't notice any latency. For audio, anything under 100ms and I generally can't tell. Razer's latest headsets have been in the 50ms range, my guess is this headset is somewhere near that.
- Mic Quality, I'd rate it around a 3.5 / 5. Again, it works fine, but If Razer is looking for ways to improve the next model, start here.
- Build Quality, especially the height adjust, volume and function buttons. They're not horrible, but they ain't great either.
- No Quick Charge, 3 hours from 0% to 100% is actually pretty good compared to the competition, but I feel like adding Quick Charge was a missed opportunity, especially since it uses USB-C.
Just something else to know when you get these, the Mic defaults to 75% output volume when first connected, you'll want to change it to 100%. Even with that, you’ll notice this mic output is quieter than most. You won’t be able to boost the output volume either.
First and foremost, the audio quality is absolutely phenomenal. The custom-tuned 40mm drivers deliver a level of clarity and detail that I've never experienced before in a gaming headset. From the subtlest in-game sounds to the most thunderous explosions, every sound is reproduced with incredible precision, immersing me in the virtual world like never before.
The wireless connectivity is a game-changer. With its low-latency wireless connection, I can enjoy uninterrupted audio while moving freely around my gaming setup. Setting it up was a breeze, and I've had no issues with connectivity or lag during intense gaming sessions.
Comfort is a top priority for me during long gaming marathons, and the Barracuda X delivers. The memory foam ear cushions provide a plush and comfortable fit, even during extended hours of use. The adjustable headband ensures a secure fit, and the lightweight design prevents any discomfort or fatigue.
One of the things I love most about this headset is its versatility. I can seamlessly switch between my PC, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and even my mobile devices without any hassle. It truly lives up to its "Multi-Platform" claim, and the detachable microphone ensures that my voice comes through crystal clear when I'm coordinating with teammates.
The foldable design is a neat feature that adds to the headset's portability. I can easily take it with me on the go, and the sleek design and matte finish give it a modern and stylish look.
In conclusion, the Razer Barracuda X Wireless Multi-Platform Gaming and Mobile Headset (2021 Model) has exceeded my expectations in every way. Its exceptional audio quality, wireless convenience, and comfort make it a must-have for gamers and entertainment enthusiasts. If you're looking to elevate your gaming and audio experiences to the next level, I wholeheartedly recommend giving the Barracuda X a try. It's a true game changer!

En el audio, tanto en juegos jugando en consola (juego en PS4) sinceramente no tiene nada que envidiarle a los Platinum, cumple con la espacialidad de audio para los juegos, el micrófono tambíen cuenta con algo más de claridad que los de Sony, ya que este es modular (que siempre me parecieron algo incómodos, pesados, diíciles de aguantar con la batería, pero el audio era su fuerte) bastante buenos para consumo multimedia tambíen, tanto que hasta gracias al receptor tipo C los uso bastante hasta en el celular.
Definitivamente super recomendados y más ahora que tienen la mitad de descuento, si hubiera esperado una semana más me hubiera ahorrado 400MXN, si quieren algo para escuchar para todos sus dispositivos, ésta es la opción, súper versátil, completa y con un diseño discreto para ser gamer.
I also appreciate the fact that it can be used on multiple devices with its easy plug and play wireless dongle. Battery life is excellent although it would have been nice to have some type of battery level indicator. Overall its been worth every penny and more. Great on the PS5 with support for 3-D audio.
I recommend this as a great alternative to the PS5 3-D headphones.
Other than this no complaints - 9/10 overall
Great sound quality
Great battery life
Very light weight
Comfortable! (Better than ax50’s)
