i had the baraccuda x for 3 years now, apart from lil crcks on the side (apparently its a common faulty design issue – i’m very careful with them and treat them gently) they are great and honestly the best headset i ever had so far. directional sound is great in games, its wireless and microphone sounds also really good, not to mention the battery life that lasts for days.
i came here looking for other recs because after 3 years , the bluetooth connectivity isn’t its best anymore (when i walk away from pc , headset sometimes shuts off or loses connection) but i guess i’ll just get another pair!
Thanks 😛
went from 0 to 5 in less than a second. if nothing else I will subscribe for that alone

Please do not buy the Barracuda x, its an amazing headphone no doubt about that, but i have owned the barracuda x and there is only one problem in it and that is the durability.
I got it and it was amazing but, 3 months down the line the left earcup stopped working properly there was intermittent static sound, and 2 months from that no sound on the left ear.
i had narrowed it down to a faulty volume rocker, causing this. luckily or so I thought, it was under warranty so got it replaced within a week, and sure enough 4 months down the line same issue, intermittent static sounds and no sound in the left earcup in a month from that, this I had opened it up and soldered the lines directly removing the potentiometer (volume rocker) completely, both ears started working but there was significant decline in the audio quality.
so TLDR, Bad build Quality, will stop working few in month, so not recommended.
however what ever was said in the video is true until it stops working XD
Using barracuda for over 3-4 years pretty good but i have the receiver version thats sucks to use .
Razer Barracuda X have hinge issue check before buying
My son has the razor barracuda X and I can confirm it is really good
does anyone have chatmix?
razer blackshark v2x, mic is just disgusting.
how is the hyperx cloud 3 wired ? is it considerable under 80dollar or Razer barracuda x is better than this?
The razor barracuda sounds like shit. No base at all. What’s this kid talking about.
Ive had my v2x for about 5 years think it just died due to a short connecting to the controller but even still in 2025 its a solid choice…probably gonna go with something new tho but if someones looking to buy them great choice def recommended.
Which headset is better for audio quality, the Razer Blackshark V2x or the Corsair Hs65?
which one would be best to hear sound cues from?
ngl im liking the g435 lightspeed because my turtle beach headset is heavy so it kinda makes my ears sore and it kinda hurts after maybe an hour or 2 of wearing it, so i like how the lightspeed is light, and the mike doesnt sound as bad as i thought when you said it sucked so honestly im probably going to get it.
I have Jlab earbuds that I bought for work and they are better than my sennheiser,
Warning for the barracuda X
In my experience the main problem with this was the longevity of the headset. after about a year the connection started to randomly not work, no “disconnected” sound prompt just had to turn off the head set unplug the dongle and sometimes that didnt work. and around the same time when trying to adjust the volume via the volume wheel, the sound would static in and out and sound cutting from the left muff entirely, i had the keep the volume at a certain position just to have both sides working.
regarding the connection issues ive looked on a couple forums and im not the only one with this issue as i tried cleaning the headset, updating divers and nothing has worked. the sound quality is great but the build quality is inconsistent at best. also side note thr mic cuts sometimes when i scream and it kinda ruins some experiences bc while in laughing my head off or scream for my life my friends not being able to hear ruins the moment i hope this helps anyone looking for a headset
I’m trying to find a headset with a good high quality microphone, and I find that the number 4 is the best for it
Whats the background beat ? 🥲
Best top gaming headset vid I’ve seen out of multiple. Had to leave a like good job and straight to the point!
As always, gr8 sht, dude!
Im looking at the reviews for the #1 pick but the reviews say the audio isnt that good and that its not the best headset so im wondering if thats changed
Crazy shot at 10:50 btw. 😂
Razer barracuda x or Logitech g733? In Indonesia they are priced same
Baracuda is not budget its 100 usd
What do you think of the Stealth 600 gen 3?
Hell yeah
Razer really screwed us over with the original blackshark v2 pro, the newer ones like this one doesn’t have the problem but ours had fantastic mic audio like that and then a synapse update crapped on it. Nothing I can find fixes it either and it’s a common problem.
What games were you playing in this vid
barracuda x or blackshark v2 hyperspeed?
cant find any great headset the hyper x cloud 3 sounds to borring the basse is to low, the razer blackshark to much basse and the logitech g pro x is bad when i play valorant ore csgo cuz u dont know where u get shoot from, when u activate the surround sound its assssss. i had a hs50 from corsair it was like 4 years ago and it was great even tho its a very old headset and i could tell where the enemys are at the same time good audio but no leather head band which sucks cuz it will get nasty in summer and yeah pls help me.
Which one do you think has a better mic. Barracuda X, or Blackshark V2x???
#1 is now 99.99 thanks trump
Man got straight into it! 👍
So the hyperx cloud iii isn’t better than any of these?
Yo people say that the spatial sound isn’t as good as the BlackShark v2 x is that true? And people are always saying that the 2022 version is bad is that true and which are you using or do they do a revision every year I’m not sure
I hate my blackshark v2 x
jbl quantum 200?
Razer Barracuda is now $99 MSRP. No longer $78.
I found the Barracuda X for $100, which I don’t think is a bad price. That being said, the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 5P is $108, and the Nova 7P is $130. So my question is—would it be a better deal to go with one of the SteelSeries options, or should I just stick with the Barracuda X?
Bought the Razer off amazon, and the mic sounds like im talking to someone in a drive-through😕
Bro chose the masterpiece (Battlefield 1) to test these headphones. Approved! :☑
What EQ do u use on the Barracuda X brother? Cant seem to eq it.
Now I miss seeing the chick twitching while doing the sound check 😂
What game is at 6:02
I instantly subscribed as soon as you went straight to no.5 at 0s. 😂😂😂
Thanks for the straightforward video. Barracuda it is, plus the 2 year care package so if anything does happen I’m futureproofing 😎
I’ve bought the black version of the Corsair HS65 since 2024 December, and its been 8 months, the headphones started glitching out random sounds when I adjust the volume of the headphones with the scrolling wheel on it and sometimes the left/right side stops working and just doesn’t give any sound at all. Pretty mid 70$ spent.
