Razer’s headset also keeps things simple in terms of controls, with just a volume rocker and a mute button on the back of the left ear. That’s not necessarily a bad thing - we found it to blend into our gaming setup well, and there are black-and-blue and mercury white options available for those who want a bit more pizzazz. With a plastic design that we tested in all black, the Kraken X is about as low-frills as it gets in terms of aesthetics. This set it apart from budget rivals like the Logitech G432 and Turtle Beach Recon 70, which are similarly lightweight but have ear cups that felt much more stiff by comparison.

Plus you get Dolby's excellent positional audio, which is great for online FPS titles.The Razer Kraken X was the clear standout among the many budget gaming headsets we tested, thanks to excellent sound quality, a clear microphone and, most significantly, a comfortable design that we never got the urge to take off.Īt just over half a pound and sporting a set of plush memory foam ear cups, the Kraken X felt snug and secure without weighing us down, and it was easy to forget we were even wearing it during hour-plus gaming sessions. This provides a fantastic equalizer and a range of adjustable presets for movies, gaming, and music.
XBOX SERIES X HEADSET FOR FREE
The Corsair HS75 XB needn't be concerned though as it's rocking 50mm drivers that give it superior bass than most, including the otherwise amazing SteelSeries Arctis 7X.Ĭorsair has thrown in a neat freebie with the HS75 XB Wireless in that you'll get access to the Dolby Atmos app on the Xbox Series X for free (usually $15/£15). While the recent official Microsoft Xbox Wireless Headset proved great bass performance is achievable with smaller 40mm drivers, most drivers of that size often lack impact. The connection quality is excellent, with none of those ear-shredding connection drops that distort the audio at an incredibly high pitch like we've experienced on Xbox even with some of the best Razer headsets.
It will not work on a PS5, but will on Windows if you fork out for the official Xbox Wireless Adapter. The Corsair HS75 XB Wireless has no wired connection option and does not require a dongle as it will connect to your Xbox One, Series X, or Series S wirelessly.

You'll also find a luxuriously braided, 6'5" (195cm) USB-C charging cable in the box. On the right, you have the power button, which takes quite a long time to activate, so you won't have to worry about accidental touches killing the power at least.

Or just have at full whack because Doom Eternal demands such things.Īlso on the left is a mic mute button and the USB-C charging slot, which is what we like to see in this day and age instead of micro-USB (we're still upset the SteelSeries Arctis 7X went with that dated connection). The volume dial is on the other side and comes with an infinite scroll wheel instead which doesn't feel as satisfying as having a lock at full volume, which we find makes it much easier to adjust down to preference.
As for the controls on the headset you have a game/chat balance on the right, with a neat soft click halfway between the two.
