RazerNari Essential Wireless 7.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset: THX Spatial Audio - Auto-Adjust Headband & Swivel Cups - Auto-Adjust - Flip Mic - for PC, PS4, PS5 Only - Black

"My official rating is 4.8/5.0. This is my opinion on the Razer Nari Ultimate. To start, and most importantly, they are quite good and of excellent quality, and I highly recommend them – 100%. They are very enjoyable. Let's begin with the positive aspects of the product.The first point is that it's a very comprehensive package; it comes with everything, including cables and guides for use. The audio is another positive aspect. It's very pleasant and incredibly immersive when gaming or watching movies, especially within video games and, notably, horror games. You can feel the presence of something chasing you or breathing down your neck.The second point is comfort. They are quite comfortable to wear; I don't feel any extra weight, and they don't pull my hair. I also don't struggle to adjust them to fit my head perfectly.The third point is Bluetooth. It's the first time I've used headsets like this, and they've given me a lot of confidence, even though I tend to be quite skeptical about anything Bluetooth. As I mentioned before, I highly recommend them, and if you want quality, these are the best, and it's worth buying them.Now, let's discuss the negative points that I feel are somewhat unnecessary, but it's important to mention the downsides as well.The first negative point is the battery and its charging system. I combine these because they are related. The headphones should have a bit more battery life; I feel that 4 hours is too short if I want to do something other than gaming, such as watching movies or listening to music. However, I believe this is due to their own power for vibrations and everything. Another issue is the cable—not that it doesn't have a USB-C cable, but the problem is that if you use it for 4 hours, it gets discharged, and you have to connect it to another electronic device. It's not very clear whether you can use a phone charger or if it's mandatory to use a computer, gaming console, etc. I would have liked to know if I could connect it directly to a charger, and I don't do it because in a power change, it could damage the battery. So, I better follow the recommendations in the manual.The third negative point, which I see more as a potential future issue, is the unnecessary wheel for adjusting the game or chat volume. I think they could have left it with buttons or something different because I feel that with its current design, it may wear out in the future, and finding a central point might become challenging due to wear and tear. As mentioned before, they could have left it more like a system with volume buttons, maybe with 3 or 5 levels for game and chat audio. I feel that there might come a point where I won't know how to adjust that wheel to the central point.To conclude, the microphone has a peculiar issue. It seems to capture a lot of game audio, or more precisely, it picks up the voices of people around me, causing considerable echoing. The microphone itself is not bad; it's quite good and compact, but the problem is the excessive bouncing of audio, at least in shooter games."

I had a set of Astro A50's that finally went bad (the mic quick working). I had them for over 4 years. After much research I decided to go with these. Not at all disappointed so far! I have to admit I was super intrigued with the haptic feedback feature. This did not disappoint. After an easy install, plug in the dongle (I have a PS4 pro) in the back and power them up, I jumped right into a game...Apex Legends. The game sounded amazing and I would venture to say just as good as my Astro's. The fit was very comfortable. I really like the receding mic. It will work in the "in" position but others had a little hard time hearing me. I probably could turn up my mic sensitivity to fix this. but I don't mind using it out. I mainly like being able to put it in for storage and transport. Don't forget to hit the mute button if you don't want your fellow gamers hearing you beg for more time to finish a round.I really experienced the haptic feedback when I jumped over to COD/CW/Zombies-Outbreak. OMG the ability to "feel" the action was a game changer. I had a player go behind my left ear and fire his weapon and I could literally "feel" the concussion of the shots!!!! Same over the other ear. I could tell, not only by sound, where something was happening but also with the feeling of the sound on that particular side!!!! AMAZING!!!I gave 4 stars for sound control because I still have a hard time hearing chat when there is a lot of action going on...i.e. warping in (Zombies) or dropping in (Apex), big fire fight or explosions...this could totally be fixed with some settings I am sure, I just haven't found the sweet spot.Overall: a great set for, what I feel, is a great price for what you get!!!! a must have!!!!

Edit: I just cant get over how short the battery life is on these. You have to charge these every day or it will just suddenly run out. And even then if your wearing it off an on for an entire day, you likely wont make it to the end. And the mic pics up sounds from the headphones super easily. Just not a great headset compared to others. I still like the haptic feedback though-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I have come to the realization that I have bought just about every "Haptic Feedback" headphone that has come out. These being the 3rd ones that i purchase. The first 2 i purchased ages ago, before i really started getting into sound quality, etc.Im just overall very impressed with these headphones.The sound is deep and warm. They have a similar sound to the Monoprice Retros, and they have a similar feel to them as well. The base is nice and strong and the incredibly roomy ear cups gives a nice sound stage so things dont really sound that muffled. And if you are the type of person who cranks the bass so loud in their car that you can hear the rattle of the license plate, boy are these the headphones for you. And the actual feel of these headphones is very similar to the MP retros as well. (If you modded the retros anyways.) The pads are big and thick, they feel very nice. I already mentioned how roomy they are on the inside. And the cooling factor is no joke. I mean if you constantly wear them you never notice, but you take them off for a minute or 2 and then put them back on and its so much colder than it was a moment ago its a bit unreal.Out of the box the base is already pretty strong. The software then comes with bass boost settings and not to mention the haptic feedback. This will make things rumble like no ones business. I tend to keep the haptic feedback turned down real low though as its a bit unnecessary for videos and music. But you switch over to a movie or actiony game, you can turn that up and really get a feel for it. The vibration is something that more grows on you, than great right out of the box. You will likely need to dial it to whatever you think is best.But speaking of movies, the THX virtual surround sound is actually pretty decent. Most virtual spacial and surround sound solutions i see are pretty garbage. Then generally just add a weird sound filter to give the illusion of sound stage. But for these, there is no weird sound filter. They dont really mess with the sound at all. Instead, when this is turned on, a new audio device is added to your computers devices. This device shows up as a 7.1 speaker system. Thus, what actually gets inputed into the system is proper 7.1 sound. All that the virtual software does is ever so slightly adjust each of the 7.1 channels to what it thinks the sound would be position-ally for the headphones. And it does that pretty well without messing with the sound to much. Honestly, there is very little different between using the virtual surround sound and not because it really all depends on the source of the audio at that point. And while its still not a real replacement for a true 7.1 system, it is tuned rather nicely for a pair of headphones. Couple that with the haptic feedback and you have a sound system that shakes the house without disturbing the neighbors, or even your room mates.Thats not to say the system is not perfect. The software is pretty.... bad. For some reason, even though all you should have to select is the THX audio device, you still have to go into the software and tell it which programs will actually use the virtualization. And i honestly cant really tell why. The Enhancements are kind of... well i mean they work but ive personally never really liked those type of enhancements. But along with the bass boost and haptic feedback, it offers sound normalization. Which is great for those youtubers who cant seem to do sound design properly or like to scream in the mic much louder than the sound of the game. And it also offers voice clarity, which is really just a mid/trebble boost to try and boost up the sound of voices. Which is some times welcome because once again some movie makers and game makers, really like to cover up the light talking with annoying music. (Subtitles for the win.)The equalizer does its job. I honestly cant think of anything to say about it. There are no fun features with the equalizer, it just does what its supposed to do. However, i can be a bit annoying switching profiles but ill get into that.Finally, the Mic. I actually think the Mic is really really good. Ive used cheap mics in the past. Back in the day i really hated some of the headsets id get simply because of the mic. These days I tend to use the Coolermaster 751 and Sennheiser Gaming headset, which both have amazing mics on them. I really think the mic is on par with them. It sounds good. I like that its easy to hide by pressing it into the ear cup.As for the negatives?I guess it has a little bit of a weight to it. More so than most bluetooth headphones. And the added weight doesnt really improve the battery life much. But, not having to worry about a cable tugging down on one side of the headphones actually almost makes them lighter to me. And im kind of used to heavy headphones.The bass can be a bit much. If youa re a sound purist or you like a very flat sound, you may not like these headphones.The battery life is... well its bad. You get about 8 hours which is good for most of the day but you will have to charge it pretty regularly.The dual volume control, where one knob controls the sound mix of 2 different sound devices is kind of weird. Its supposed to be so you can turn down the game and turn up your friends when you need to. But getting it set up to work correctly and then adjusting it on the fly can just be a bit weird. Its a cool feature and im sure someone will love it. But feels kind of unnecessary. (It does mean you dont have to go digging through the menu to make that one friend who has a quiet mic sound louder though, so thats a plus.)Overall, as a person who owns an entire bookshelf covered in a variety of headphones, it should speak volumes that these have become my go to headphones. I like the portability. I like the sound. I like the comfort. I like not having to switch to a headset with a mic when i want to game with friends. I think the haptic feedback adds just that little bit more to the sound. Ive been impressed with the virtual surround sound. I even like all the little features in the software and knobs. The only real improvement i can ask for is a better battery, or a wireless charging option with a special headphone stand. But they really have become my favorite.
