Pros & Cons
👍 Pros
- TriForce Titanium 50mm drivers with titanium-coated diaphragms produce clear highs, detailed mids, and powerful bass.
- At only 240 grams, it remains comfortable during long gaming sessions without creating pressure on the head or ears.
- The 3.5mm connection provides broad compatibility across PC, Mac, PS4, PS5, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch.
- Closed earcup design with foam cushions provides effective passive noise isolation during gameplay.
- The HyperClear cardioid microphone focuses on voice pickup while rejecting background noise from the sides and rear.
👎 Cons
- The 7.1 surround sound feature is software-dependent and only functions on Windows 10 64-bit, not on consoles or Mac.
- The 3.5mm-only connection means there is no USB option, so audio quality depends on the host device's audio hardware.
- The microphone is not detachable, which limits the headset's versatility as casual listening headphones in public.
- Foam ear cushions may wear down and compress over time with heavy daily use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the 7.1 surround sound work on all platforms?
No, the 7.1 surround sound feature requires Razer's software and is only available on Windows 10 64-bit. On other platforms, the headset outputs stereo audio through the 3.5mm connection.
How much does the BlackShark V2 X weigh?
The headset weighs just 240 grams, making it one of the lighter gaming headsets available and comfortable for extended sessions.
Is the microphone detachable or retractable?
The Razer HyperClear cardioid microphone is built into the headset with a flexible boom arm. It is not detachable, but it can be bent out of the way when not in use.
Do I need an adapter to use this with an Xbox One controller?
Older Xbox One controllers without a 3.5mm jack require a separate Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter, sold separately. Newer controllers with a built-in 3.5mm port work directly.
Does this headset use USB or a 3.5mm audio jack?
The BlackShark V2 X connects exclusively via a 3.5mm audio jack, which is what enables its wide cross-platform compatibility but means it relies on your device's audio processing for most platforms.
