If you’re looking for a discreet headset you can take with you on the commute, this is just the ticket.

The only other detailing of note sees the brand name positioned across the headband. There’s no RGB lighting to speak of and the entire product is matte black with the Razer logo embossed subtly on each ear. To my eyes, it barely registers as a gaming peripheral, which is no bad thing at all. READ NEXT: These are the best gaming monitors right now Razer Barracuda X: What do we like about it? On the left earcup you’ll find volume, mic mute and power controls, plus ports for the USB-C charging cable, 3.5mm cable and the microphone itself.

Housed inside the earcups are a pair of 40mm “TriForce” audio drivers similar to those found on the excellent Razer BlackShark V2 wired gaming headset. The headset supports 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound and you can upgrade to THX spatial audio for $20 – a service available across a variety of Razer headsets. There’s no Bluetooth support, nor Xbox Wireless support, so you’ll need to wire the connection if you’re playing on the Xbox One or Series X. The Barracuda X comes with a USB-C to USB-A adapter, too, so you can plug the dongle into anything with a suitable USB-A port (like a PC, laptop or PS4). The Barracuda X is also compatible with PlayStation 5 – simply plug the dongle into the front-facing USB-C port.
