Gaming over-ear headphones from the Barracuda line by the popular company Razer, which is particularly known for products for gamers. And although these particular headphones feature a rather restrained design, lacking the brightness characteristic of gaming devices, the recognizable manufacturer's logo is still placed on the cups. Overall, these are closed over-ear headphones that gently envelop the user's ear, providing enhanced noise isolation and a comfortable fit.
Most notably, the model is distinguished by its variety of connection methods to the signal source — radio channel, mini-Jack (3.5 mm), USB A, or USB C. At the core of the Razer Barracuda X headphones are 40-mm dynamic drivers that provide good sound across various musical scenes. The claimed sensitivity is 96 dB, and the nominal impedance is 32 Ohms. It supports virtual 7.1 surround sound, which only enhances the immersion effect in computer games. A flexible boom microphone is provided for communication in group chats, which can be easily detached if necessary. The headphones' wireless mode offers up to 20 hours of battery life.

Model overview based on user reviews
The Razer Barracuda X headphones are praised for their comfortable fit and good sound quality, making them suitable for extended use on both PC and gaming consoles like PS5 and Nintendo Switch. Users appreciate the soft ear cushions and the convenience of a detachable microphone. However, a recurring issue is the fragile plastic build, with several users reporting cracks and breaks over time, even with careful handling. The battery life is generally satisfactory, lasting up to 20 hours, but some users note a quicker drain. While the sound quality is generally well-received, the microphone quality is often criticized as subpar. Despite these issues, the headphones are considered a decent choice for their price, especially for gaming, though potential buyers should be aware of the durability concerns.

After about two years and three months, the plastic on one side completely broke, considering that I was quite careful with it. First there was a crack, then at some point they just broke. I temporarily filled everything with super glue, I'm already looking for a replacement from another brand. Works with both PC and PS, pretty good sound, not felt on the head (you can sit for at least 8 hours and it won't be uncomfortable at all). The battery lasts 20 hours, I charged it once every few days. Comfortable ear cushions. Very weak plastic  Denis Ryaboshtanov: use Razer Barracuda X more than year |
I've been using the headphones for a year. The headphones are not too heavy, but if you wear them for more than six hours straight, you may feel some fatigue, so it's better to take breaks during use. The actual sound range is 20-22000 Hz, verified using frequency generator websites. The sound is good, and it doesn't feel like the speakers are far away behind a wall. They perform excellently in shooters; you can aim with your ears :) The microphone works well, my friends haven't had any complaints. The advantages include an analog volume control, allowing you to adjust the volume independently of other sound settings, and there's also a physical microphone mute button. The ear pads can be washed in warm water with shower gel, then dried for a day, and they're like new. However, there are issues with the plastic; it's very delicate. A crack appeared on the left ear mount for no apparent reason, and there are also some small scratches on the right ear, but this doesn’t affect functionality. Autonomy is sufficient, around 15 hours of continuous use, and they charge to the maximum in three hours. The operating range is up to 10 meters if you turn away from the dongle with your left ear. The package includes the headphones, microphone, USB-A to USB-C male-male and male-female cables, and some papers. Wonderful sound, ease of movement, stand up, the microphone is quite flexible and trims its shape The plastic of the chip is damaged, and the USB-A to USB-C cable is also very good, if you insert it all the way into the USB port, then the computer does not need to pump the dongle, but will be fixed by pulling the cable a couple of millimeters from the port.

Not the best headphones for their price. Used for a month. Very delicate casing. Dropped once accidentally from 40 centimeters, resulting in 2 cracks. One crack appeared after 2 weeks. Not sure if it's due to the fall or not. Also, volume control stopped working properly. Now, at a certain level, the left ear doesn't work, or the right one. Sometimes neither produces sound. Short connection range of 7 meters and it starts disconnecting. Battery drains quickly. But charging is fast, so that's okay. Price and sound insulation The sound no longer works normally. |
