Our take on the Razer BlackShark V2 X PlayStation Wired Gaming Headset

The Razer BlackShark V2 X PlayStation is a wired over-ear headset built for PS4 and PS5, with a 3.5mm connection that also works on PC, Switch and mobile. It uses 50mm Razer TriForce drivers with separate tuning for highs, mids and lows, plus a HyperClear cardioid boom mic that detaches. At this level it competes with budget wired headsets like the SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 and HyperX Cloud Stinger 2; owners rate it highly for comfort and mic clarity, and note the plastic build and modest isolation as the main compromises.
