Key Features:

Razer HyperClear Super Wideband Mic

• Equipped with a bendable, super wideband microphone (100 Hz – 10 kHz) that captures a broader frequency range for rich, natural, and uncompressed vocal clarity, rivaling standalone USB microphones.
• Features advanced noise rejection from back and sides, tunable via Razer Synapse 3 on PC, ensuring clear communication for team shotcalls and streaming with minimal background interference.
• Includes a strengthened mic arm with a hard pop filter under a foam windscreen for durability and enhanced voice capture, though the mic is not detachable, which some users note as a minor drawback.
• Delivers professional-grade audio, with users reporting podcast-like clarity, making it ideal for esports and content creation.

Razer TriForce Titanium 50mm Drivers

• Utilizes a patented design with titanium-coated diaphragms, dividing the 50mm drivers into three parts to individually tune highs, mids, and lows for crisp trebles, clear mids, and powerful bass (12 Hz – 28 kHz frequency response).
• Includes pro-tuned FPS audio profiles for games like Apex Legends, Call of Duty, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and Valorant, optimized for precise directional audio cues like footsteps and gunfire.
• Offers a bright sound profile that emphasizes vocals and instruments, though some users note a lack of thumpy bass and slight midrange inconsistencies, customizable via Razer Synapse’s 10-band EQ.
• Provides immersive audio for gaming, music, and movies, with THX Spatial Audio enhancing positional accuracy on Windows 10 64-bit or higher.

Advanced Passive Noise Isolation

• Features closed earcups with ultra-soft FlowKnit memory foam cushions wrapped in breathable fabric, conforming to head shapes for a perfect seal that blocks ambient noise like crowd cheers or PC fans.
• Enhances focus by isolating in-game audio, allowing precise detection of subtle sound cues critical for competitive play, though noise isolation is noted as sub-par compared to active noise cancellation.
• Lightweight at 280g with optimized weight reductions and improved clamping force, ensuring comfort during extended gaming sessions without overheating, though some users report slight pressure from clamping.
• Designed with a breathable fabric and plush padding to reduce sweat and heat buildup, ideal for marathon gaming sessions.

THX Spatial Audio (Windows 10 64-Bit or Higher)

• Delivers next-generation surround sound with pinpoint positional accuracy via THX Spatial Audio, enhancing in-game awareness for Windows 10 64-bit or higher users, activated through Razer Synapse 3.
• Features custom-tuned EQ settings for competitive games, though performance varies by game due to differing audio mixes, requiring adjustments for optimal results.
• Provides a more immersive soundstage compared to closed-back designs, though some users note the passive soundstage feels less open than open-back headsets.
• Supports stereo audio on non-Windows platforms (PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, mobile) via 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth, maintaining versatility across devices.

Additional Notes:

• Tri-Mode Connectivity: Supports Razer HyperSpeed Wireless (2.4 GHz via USB-C dongle) for low-latency gaming, Bluetooth 5.2 (SBC codec) for mobile devices, and USB-C wired mode for charging or uninterrupted use. Razer SmartSwitch allows seamless toggling between 2.4 GHz and Bluetooth with a double-tap.
• Battery Life: Offers up to 70 hours on 2.4 GHz (90 hours on Bluetooth), with 6 hours of play from a 15-minute USB-C charge, and a full charge in 3.5–4 hours. Can be used wired via USB-C while charging.
• Controls: Includes on-headset controls for volume, mic mute, power, and SmartSwitch for cycling EQ profiles (Game, Movie, Music, Custom, FPS) and wireless modes.
• Build Quality: Features a durable plastic frame with a steel-reinforced headband and breathable memory foam cushions, though some users note the build feels less premium compared to higher-end models.
• Compatibility: Supports PC, PS5, PS4, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices via 2.4 GHz or Bluetooth 5.2. Not natively compatible with Xbox, requiring the Xbox-specific variant.
