"The Razer Barracuda X combines high-performance gaming features and true 4-in-1 wireless connectivity with the design and ease of use of lifestyle headphones. The result is a single, multi-purpose headset, ideal for all-day-long gaming no matter which platform you are using or where you are."

The Only Gaming Headset You'll Need

Razer announced developing the Barracuda X from the ground up, intended as a versatile multi-platform accessory without compromising style and comfort. Capitalizing on its years of design and engineering experience, the Razer team integrated its top-of-the-line audio technology in a comfortable package, resulting in a wireless gaming headset that works just as well whether the user is indoors or outdoors.

Also undergoing an extensive design process, the Barracuda X is the result of stringent tests to provide the best fit, comfort, without coming out as bulky or unnecessarily complex. Its concave surfaced style creates a sleek, minimalist feel, with clean accents visually connecting the yoke and ear cup for that complete, smooth look. Additionally, the Razer Barracuda X sports low-profile ear cups, designed to fit every ear shape, as well as being versatile enough to be adjusted and swiveled for a personalized fit. Plush memory foam makes up the ear cushions that are connected by a light headband for that maximum comfort.
