Razer BlackShark V2 Pro vs Razer Kraken V3 Pro

[@sammyswitch]

Once you experience haptics on a gaming headset, there's no going back. I upgraded to the Kraken V3 Pro from my Nari Ultimate, and love it. Haptics is improved, but the Nari Ultimate is still more comfortable.

[@mrpennypicker]

I agree...I think I'm hooked now tbh 😂

[@sammyswitch]

@@mrpennypicker They're also great for music, especially tracks with a good bass line.

[@joeyarett7435]

Never going back

[@Kaizagade]

They should have made is the size of the Nari, the ear space is amazing on them! Such a shame

[@Araphex]

You don't even need the hypersense to experience how great audio sounds with the Kraken V3 Pro. It's got to be the best headset for gaming I've found all around.

[@mrpennypicker]

I compared it to a couple of headsets (music and gaming) and it's the clearest one for sure.

[@TR3SP4SSER]

@@mrpennypicker which one

[@SpaceBaron]

Your review has helped me buy the Kraken V3! I also followed your advice on Dolby Atmos. It was the best purchase I have ever made! Thank you so much!

[@dantegg09]

very thorough and entertaining

[@mrpennypicker]

Thanks :)

[@SadBoySocialClub1]

Thanks for the review! Keep pushing on your channel :D. Hope to see more in the future.

[@heisen187]

where do you get the dolby atmos and does it only work with the Kraken? Also, I'm struggling with the mic on the blackshark v2 pro its not the same as my old headset arctis 5 which everyone says I'm crystal clear on so does the mic on the kraken that much better?

[@Nukelas]

Good review , no bullshit , getting krakens tomorrow

[@TheAtkinson118]

How do you rate them after you got them for yourself?? I'm looking at these right now and I'm very interested in the Haptic feedback. But it's for more of a single player experience..and anything to make gaming more fun 👍

[@Stpakos]

Thanks for the video,it helped me a lot :)

[@רפאלליאבביטון]

i like your honesty ty for the feedback

[@basicate5594]

Was decided to buy the blackshark and came across with your video, I'll wait 2-3 month to see if they release a white version for the kraken v3 pro if that's the case I'll go with the kraken

[@mrpennypicker]

I had the wired blackshark v2 for a little bit, enjoyed it because it was so light, but yeah, the haptic feedback is lots of fun for me :)

[@Skull_Knight_Berserk]

Thank you for this video!

[@mrpennypicker]

Np, hope it helps :)

[@acsgdo02]

On my Nari exp haptics are fun but ruins directional awareness on footsteps for shooters it's fine on single player games

[@mrpennypicker]

Interesting, I haven't paid attention to that specifically. I'll test it out. I will say when I want to get sweaty in a game that I do tend to turn haptics off or place them on the lowest setting.

[@JynxedKoma]

Nari ultimate is many years old now compared to the Krak v3 Pro.

[@mikea8294]

Thanks for the comparison, which is the only one I could really find on KZbin. I have the Blackshark V2 Pro and was looking for something that has more features and USB-C charging. For Dolby Atmos, what is the URL for downloading that application?

[@mrpennypicker]

You can go to the Microsoft store and get Dolby Access. In the Dolby Access app you can buy Dolby Atmos.

[@Vidar93]

You can also get a 50% off coupon from razer

[@Theaverageguy23]

Hey, Kraken V3 HYPERSENSE is better than Blackshark V2 & Logitech G Pro X please reply i want to buy Kraken V3 HYPERSENSE but i am very confused.

[@mrpennypicker]

Hey! I can't speak for the Logitech G Pro X unfortunately because I haven't owned it, but in my opinion the Kraken V3 Hypersense is better than the Blackshark V2 pro. Hope this helps! 😁

[@Theaverageguy23]

@@mrpennypicker Yes, thank you 😍, love & support from India 😬♥️

[@kasem_7615]

Can you use both on all platforms?

[@user-ce8us7ov6d]

Razer BlackShark V2 Pro (2023) and Razer Kraken V3 Pro Which one is better!

[@kesmateo8753]

Did I think than the V2 pro are better than kraken tournament edition? And what about the sound.

[@mrpennypicker]

Idk about the tournament edition. But sound quality ok the KV3 Pro is really nice. It has more clarity than the BlackShark.

[@zhixuanjeremy5305]

Hi how do get your doby Atmos? Is it thru doby access on your Store on your windows App? Really love your video very spot on!!

[@mrpennypicker]

Hey! Yes I got it through Dolby Access via the Microsoft store on my PC. At the time I paid $15.

[@mooneyszn1662]

Can you use the kraken v3s wireless on Xbox without having to have a pc?

[@mrpatton01]

i ordered a blackshark V2 pro wiresless on Amazon, and then send me a Kraken v3 pro.. at first i tought about sending it back, but i think i am going to let thisone slide after trying them

[@JynxedKoma]

Result! I definitely wouldn't send them back. You absolutely got an upgrade.

[@St0necreek3r]

Is there any second without a cut? I‘m feeling like on a rollercoaster. Can‘t Watch this without headache

[@reznoov9963]

would you choose the kraken v3 pro if you’re not gonna use the hyper sense?

[@mrpennypicker]

Yes, all the way. The audio sounds clearer IMO. If you want bass without hypersense and you don't care about the treble, then BlackShark will be fine for you as I think the Kraken is lower on stand alone bass since it has hypersense.

[@irondisciple2984]

is the wired and wireless versions the same thing just being wired or wireless?

[@S7Cameron]

Does the haptic feedback work on ps5?

[@kiyaeepour290]

thank you so much for this video👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

[@mrpennypicker]

You are welcome! I hope it helps! 😁

[@thanosgr1988able]

Hello I always read everywhere in the Internet, that kraken V3 pro have issues with the sound goes off from a video to another, that the synapse 3 crashes with the THX, problem with synapse that freeze chroma, when you listen music and close it and then after 10 sec play again,you can’t hear and you need to reopen the headset to listen. Is all this true?? Thank you.. all internet says staff like this. please tell me because maybe I will buy this product.. thank you

[@mrpennypicker]

Hey, I have used the headphones to edit videos, play games, watch videos, listen to music, etc. and I haven't had any issues with them at all. But I don't use THX, I use Dolby Atmos.

[@bossi888]

Yes it's true. I returned them. Constant issues.

[@mrpennypicker]

Hey so after a couple of months now, I did start seeing an issue where it will disconnect from my game if the game crashes for whatever reason, so I'll have to turn my headset off and then back on to reconnect it. It was annoying at first but turning them off and then back on works just fine so I have no issues with that.

[@mrpennypicker]

Okay so shortly after my former comment, it started working just fine 🤷‍♂️. I haven't had any more issues at all with it. So whatever it was seems to have been fixed.

[@karloladrondeguevara4891]

thank you big man, keeping it simple

[@user-nj6rk5xs1m]

What is best for ps5 under 150$ ? …not too sure if I wanna go wireless route cause of potential audio problems

[@mrpennypicker]

Unfortunately I only game on PC so I don't really know for PS5 :/

[@Rocashu]

no Bluetooth. how can we connect this to a Samsung TV (lets say) and enjoy some movies? any workaround?

[@Samariini]

thanks alot. awesome helpful video

[@Babyjodo]

I bought them all from nari to kraken v3 pro and berracuda x they are all good headphones blackshark v2 pro last longer tho

[@vasilvasilev7938]

Which has the better microphone? And which noise cancels more?

[@pokqn]

Blackshark has a better mic but I would say the kraken noice cancels more

[@SirAndr3w.]

Without the hyper sense, will you choose the kraken or the blackshark?

[@mrpennypicker]

Kraken all the way, audio quality/clarity is much better IMO

[@MuppetChops]

Which is best for zoom calls?

[@mrpennypicker]

Well tbh I have not used either with Zoom in particular, however, using the Kraken for work via the AUX for Skype meetings worked well. I asked colleagues how it sounds and they said it sounded just fine. On a regular basis I've worn it for 10+ hours. I'd say something to consider is if you want the RGB to show up during your video call because it looks cool 🤷‍♂️ then the Kraken has it. Other than that, I think for meeting purposes either would be fine.

[@guillermopantoja9047]

Is there a big difference between the Kraken V3 Pro and the Nari Ultimate??? I can't decide if it's worth it the price difference for the Kraken. Great video btw!

[@BlizzardWind99]

nari ultimate is the older version of the kraken v3 pro... basically kraken v3 pro is the modern version of nari ultimate

[@mrpennypicker]

I have never used the Nari :/ but they say the Kraken is indeed better as far as sound and battery if you go wireless.

[@Insanartist]

I can answer for you. I have tested both of them. The Nari was more comfy, but you really look weird because how big they are it's kinda funny. The haptic, I have more fun with the Nari, but not by much. The clarity, this I cannot give you a proper answer because I didn't try Dolby Atmos with the, Nari, but with the Kraken V3 Pro they sound great!

[@jeremyclosset1945]

Thx for you´re video i was daubting to buy the kraken or the black shark and you´re video helpt me to make up my mind and i bought the kraken ! Thx !

[@mooneyszn1662]

How is this headset a year later and are you still using it?

[@FrostM89]

If you purchase dolby software and adjust the eq settings of the headset on there, do those adjustments carry to the console?

[@mrpennypicker]

I'm not sure I understand the question, but it seems you're asking "if I change EQ settings on my headset on my PC will they transfer to my gaming console?" I don't know to be honest. I wouldn't think so unless EQ settings are stored locally on the head set. I doubly it, but I don't know for sure. Sorry :/

[@youknowwhoiam1412]

i also heard that this headset having an issue after a month of use it gives crackling noise and buzzing sounds like the haptic feedbacks gives problem. is that true bcs i want to buy this headset soon

[@mrpennypicker]

I haven't gotten a cracking or buzzing yet, but I've only had it for maybe 2-3 months as of this comment. I have encountered issues where it randomly disconnects on my PC if I switch from a KZbin video to a game and back and forth. It was annoying for sure. Turning the headset on and off fixes it but I'm surprised Razer hasn't fixed this by now. I will say that I do use the headset extensively.

[@jackR1996]

That plastic band will begin to crack

[@mrpennypicker]

On which one? The Kraken V3 pro or the Balckshark? I assume you mean the Kraken because it's got the faux leather. So far they look fine but it's too early to tell, but thank you :) I'll definitely keep an eye out on that!

[@jackR1996]

@@mrpennypicker I've had the Kraken since June 2021 and I've had to glue the headphones to the band on both sides. the adjustment number has micro-cracks. Keep the receipt because razer won't work with you without it
