Wired gaming headset
Razer's entry-level wired esports headset, with closed-back earcups, 50 mm TriForce drivers and a boom mic on a single 3.5 mm cable. The earcups isolate well from room noise, though sound leaks out to people nearby.
-
Lightweight frame
At 240 g it is light for a gaming headset and easy to forget once on. The earcups do not swivel and hang from metal forks with exposed wires, which can press behind the ears.
-
Fixed cardioid microphone
The bendable boom mic picks up mainly from the front, keeping out background noise such as a nearby TV. It cannot be removed.
-
3.5 mm connection
A single 3.5 mm plug works with PCs, consoles and phones, with no battery to charge. Without a USB sound card, Razer Synapse cannot adjust its EQ or mic.
