Review: Good Quality Headphones for Great Price! - I've been using the Razer Barracuda X for a while now, and I'm really impressed with them. The sound quality is clear and balanced, making them great for gaming, music, and videos. The noise cancellation does a good job of reducing background noise, helping me stay focused without completely blocking out my surroundings. One of my favorite features is the ability to switch between Bluetooth and the 2.4 GHz wireless connection. It makes the headset incredibly versatile and easy to use with different devices. They're also very comfortable, even during long gaming sessions, thanks to the lightweight design and soft ear cushions. Overall, I think these headphones offer excellent value for the price. If you're looking for a comfortable wireless headset with good sound quality and flexible connectivity, the Razer Barracuda X is a great choice.
Review: Way better than reviews make it out to be. No need to look elsewhere. Crazy good microphone. - I was looking for essentially the best bluetooth mic I could get for work. A boom mic would be the minimum requirement for me, because you need the mic physically close to your mouth, so it had to be some sort of gaming headset. After that, I looked for mic sound tests and all that. So, you'll watch reviews and hear soundtests for the mic, and you'll think it sounds kinda bad on bluetooth. Plus some of the negative reviews on desertcart would make you concerned on the build quality. Even using the USB C dongle, other headsets like the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro or the Hyperspeed are significantly better. Well, take this from an audiophile: I tried these first hand and they are great. From the build quality, the mic quality and ability to not pick up background noise, all the way to the sound quality on bluetooth. I was under the impression that I was going to settle for a mediocre mic, and thankfully that's not the case at all. This mic is up there with a desktop boom mic, and sounds better than my $150 Logi Pro X. Your voice comes across clear and crisp without background noise, even if you speak at a low volume. The default EQ preset is garbage, but download the EQ app and set the preset to music or do your own custom preset, and it definitely surpassed my expectations. They also feel super solid though I'll have to break them in for a bit. So far, I love them. I'm glad I didn't go for the more expensive BlackShark hyperspeed. If these ever break on me, I'm more likely to buy them again than not. Sound clarity / definition is definitely good, comparable to quality open-backs like Sennheiser's. Sadly Razer uses a trash EQ by default, but nothing that can't be fixed by the user. These can get "bust-your-eardrums" loud, if necessary. The thing itself is not uncomfortable and does not put a ton of pressure on your skull, but with time and use it gets gradually more comfortable. I love how well-built they are. They are lightweight, but not in a cheap way. Razer is slowly earning me as a loyal customer, this is my third device from them and it's a hit like the others. First two being the Kiyo Pro webcam and the Siren V2 X mic. One tip for Discord regardless of device or headset: Disable echo cancellation, It only causes problems. The auto call switching feature is a nice add-on, and the USB-C dongle works on your phone if you want, even with a case on, as long as it's not a very thick case. 10/10, I hope Razer doesn't abandon this product line (at this price) and they continue to make newer / better iterations years down the line. EDIT: I ended up downloading Wavelet on my phone and using an AutoEQ profile specific to the 2022 Barracuda X. I couldn't be happier, sound clarity and quality improved a lot. (If you wanna do this and previously used the Razer app to set an EQ preset, go back to that app, connect the headset, and change it back to default. Otherwise the AutoEQ won't work properly).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome. Works in Linux without issue.
*by O***O on November 18, 2022*

First of all, this is a great headset. It is comfortable to wear, and works perfectly in Linux. I cannot speak of how it works on Windows, since I do not use Windows. The Type C connector on the headset is amazing. It allows charging no less than four times as fast as a type A port. (And a Micro USB is just a different connector on a Type A cable.) The 2.4 Ghz Type C connector is great too since Type C is the future of USB, and Type A will eventually be entirely replaced. Please do understand that 7.1 is not real. It can be emulated via Dolby, but *ONLY* on Windows. Dolby could spend a few hours and write a tiny package that would allow it to work on all systems, but they only care about Windows. The headset has two speakers. Not eight as 7.1 would require. There are some minor issues with this headset. First of all, the power button is not a switch. You have to press and hold it until the headset tells you it is on. Second, the headset automatically powers off after a time if nothing is playing through it. This is an idiotic mistake on the part of Razor. Imagine if you are playing a game, and have a loading screen that is longer than the autoshutoff time. Then you have to wast ~10 seconds to get it working again. (~5 to get it to turn on, then another ~5 before it actually begins working. Second, the position of the volume control wheel is awful. If you are laying down wearing it, with a pillow behind your head to keep your head at an angle to watch a film, every little movement will mess with the volume. Bad design Razor. Do better with the next model. And finally one more issue that I did find a workaround for. Every once in a while, it will simply fail to work. It will continue to try to pair and never manage it. The solution I found is to disconnect the connector and reconnect it. This is a pain if your PC is not right next to you. So my solution was to buy a Type C male to female extension cord. That way I can have the connector right next to me. And not have to get out of bed to fix it. Please note that I gave Noise Cancellation 4 stars, because I presume it works, but I have not even plugged in the microphone. I do not need it. So pay attention to other reviews if the microphone or the Noise Cancellation matters to you.
