The plastic in the headset bands are prome to cracking and snapping quick with larger heads had mine for only a week before I saw cracks

So I got this on the 6 of may and being using them for less then 2 months and had been oki for the first 1 month. I think it started about 2 weeks ago when I would be cutting in and out of my mic and now just today it's gotten so bad that I cant talk to my mates online. The have been kept safe so theres no way that I've done something to them. Hopefully you guys gets this review and can get something sorted because I paid good money for this product

Had mine for awhile but the mic has always been bad, and it is also very prone to cracking and snapping the muffs so they no longer sit on your ears. Good if you got a small head, but also look for alternatives first.

Have had this headset almost 7 months and they have broken already. The quality of the audio and the mic is awesome, but the build quality is cheap as. These were always stored away after every use and well looked after. One day it just decided to snap while I was wearing them mid game. Maybe I have a big head (lol) but the point is, these should last way longer than 7 months. Get some other headset if you are looking at these ones, or if you like to upgrade every 6 months lol

The Razer Kraken has long been a favorite of people buying a gaming headset on the cheap. Listing at $80, and often discounted even lower, it’s one of the cheaper name-brand headsets on the market.

The Razer Kraken X is a no-frills take on a headset line that already had few frills to offer. For $50 it’s not a bad option, but it rests in the shadow of the standard Kraken, which offers better comfort and sound quality for only $20 to $30 more.

Inexpensive; Looks just like the high-end Kraken models; Extremely lightweight;

Headband could use more padding; Sound is “good enough” for a $50 headset and not much more; Noisy microphone;

Good gaming headsets don't have to cost a small fortune.

7.1 channel surround sound; Eyewear channels alleviate temple pressure; Cross-platform compatibility; Onboard control

Ear cups don't rotate; Surround sound exclusive to Windows 10

This is an affordable, no-frills headset to step up your gaming game....

Here at KitGuru we've reviewed plenty of Razer headsets over the years, with some costing as much as £200. We were very interested to hear, then, that Razer has bolstered its headset portfolio with a new model – the Kraken X. The killer feature Pricing.

Affordable; Stealthy; all-black design; Very comfortable and lightweight; Sounds great when gaming; Impressive mic quality

All-plastic construction doesn't feel especially robust; Not the best for listening to music

With the Kraken X, the well-known Californian manufacturer Razer adds a low-cost headset to its portfolio that's aimed at beginners as well as more seasoned gamers.

The Razer Kraken X is a good mid-range headset that gets most of the basics right: it's comfortable, sounds decent and has a great microphone. Unfortunately, its poor bass performance doesn't bode well for action and shooter games, where loud and deep explosions are the norm. If you want a blockbuster audio experience, you'll need to pay more. Otherwise, this remains a great value gaming headset

Comfortable design; Great microphone ; 7.1 surround sound is useful; Multi-platform support;

Poor bass quality ; Surround sound won't work with PS4, Xbox or Switch;
