Whether you're exploring vast open worlds or engaging in intense multiplayer battles, the clarity and depth of the audio elevate your gaming experience to new heights.

The headset's ANC employs microphones both inside and outside the ear cups to monitor and counteract ambient noise. The result? A gaming environment free from distractions, where you can fully immerse yourself in the action without being interrupted by external sounds.

Additionally, the headset's retractable microphone delivers crystal-clear voice communication, ensuring that you can coordinate with your teammates with ease. In terms of aesthetics, the Kraken Ultimate sports Razer's signature sleek and futuristic design, complete with customizable RGB lighting zones that add a touch of personalization to your setup. The build quality is top-notch, with durable materials that exude premium craftsmanship. While the Kraken Ultimate is primarily tailored for PC gaming, its versatility extends to other platforms thanks to its USB connectivity. Whether you're gaming on a desktop, laptop, or even a console, this headset delivers consistent performance across the board. In conclusion, the Razer Kraken Ultimate is more than just a gaming headset – it's a gateway to a world of immersive audio and unparalleled gaming experiences.

Review: Amazing! Great for my ears, no pain. - TLDR: I wear glasses and headsets dig into my head causing me pain and leaving marks into my skull from pressing my glasses into my head etc. These have not (at least not yet).. and I am so excited. They feel roomy and nice, I was wearing them when I didn't even need to cause I just don't mind them all day long. (SO NICE!) I had to write this, I only had them like 2 days now. Wore them all day today and I cannot believe I'm not in pain like I have been from my hyper x cloud 2. My other headset broke. The mic just doesn't work. So I needed a new one. I didn't put much thought into this, It was a good price and kind of impulse bought it after making sure it was in fact a USB connection because I can't deal with finding the right port for the circle ones/jacks. (I am very tired). I wear glasses, my headsets tend to dig and cause pain into my head. These are not... very roomy feeling. My only gripe as my other headset mic could come out. I could move the headset any way and put the cord on either side of me. These I have to wear them one way only. But that's not a big deal tbh. I like the cord to dangle on my RIGHT side. But it is on the left and has to cross over me. But whatever. I can work on solving that some other time. I totally didn't realize the RGB colors changing on the sides, pretty neat. Mic and sound are nice. People are not complaining about not hearing me etc. Very nice. I've had issues with discord in the past but no issues atm. (Not sure if it was headset related at all). I may want to get a stand for them or something just because. Very happy with my purchase so far! (Also thanks to the company for shipping it so fast! ) Update: I reviewed this Feb 10-22. Updating now jul 28-22. This review is getting notice so I figured I might as well update. I'm able to wear this with my glasses for long periods, I game daily with friends talking etc. I find them to be quite comfortable. As far as discord goes, I only got the error of my friends not being able to hear me a couple of times. What resolved that was just closing and restarting the app. Restarting computer. Things like that. I think it's discords issue tbh. Anyways. I found also as I wear glasses, that my glasses weren't fitting me that great, and I needed a wider frame so it didn't cut into my head as much, that also helped with head discomfort. It also stood up to my cats chewing at the mic end. I'm so glad they I can retract it during storage. Edit:9-30-22. I got another notice for this. So here's some more. I got really busy with life etc so I haven't been gaming or using this much. But when I did use it for the weekend all day they were great! But I noticed when taking them off my ears enjoyed the break. Lol like I'm not used to having stuff around my ears anymore. But still really like these. And no issues with them. They work great. Using discord, people can hear me. My cats love to gnaw on the mic still. I'm really glad I can retract the mic and then I flip the headset over -so Mic faces downward(didn't buy stand, just put them on my PC tower). If I leave it up they with try to sell gnaw at it. Or My cat loves to then gnaw the cord for my attention. I usually stop to give attention so they aren't doing it to long per attention seeking session overall. Cord is going strong, no frays yet. Hope this continues to help. I hate refunding things myself. Good luck, take care.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yooo- these are so good.
*by A***N on September 3, 2022*

My other razer's were dying. I don't know, wire loose? Something- but it was fading out. Like the audio wouldn't play on the left side. So I was like, whelp... let me get some new ones. Not cheap ones. But not like $100+ headphones. Got these. For whatever reason, my old ones were working again... so I didn't install this right away. ...eventually my old razer's started fading again. So I was like.. ok, let's go ahead and install these! That's why I got them. I didn't realize these were a higher quality headphonse than the ones I had. The design was already better -> the mic can like... disappear into the headphones. Super convenient. The wrappy thing around the wires is attached to the wires so you can't lose them. Like, these are little thing I didn't even think about that impressed me because it showed how much detail and care went into this product's design. But the thing that got me... was when I plugged them in and put them on. The previous one I had used "surround sound".... but if that were true.. these ones use "surround sound god-tier plus". Like.. I had a nice zelda medley playing on my computer... but played through these headphones.... it was such a heavenly delight in my ears. My mind was blown. Think I cried a little. It was beautiful. And then IN GAME. Oh man. The tracking of where things are... like a character would be talking.. and it'll be so sensitive in terms of where they are in relation to my location. It was so dynamic. Someone could whisper into my left ear- and I'll feel that whisper in my left ear. Great work on these headphones!! For the price point, I was really satisfied!
