The Razer BlackShark V2 Pro is packed with many technological advancements and sound-improving tech that make it one of the best Xbox headsets around.

For starters, this fine headset by Razer is equipped with 50mm TriForce Titanium drivers that deliver sublime sound quality that will let the wearer hear the minutest detail of a game's sound design for extra immersion.

It's also useful for competitive gamers as this feature can help players listen to enemy movements if they're being snuck-up on in PVP titles like Call of Duty or Overwatch 2.

Other standout features of this headset include a unidirectional, hi-fi, detachable microphone that delivers crisp sound quality to your voice when speaking online, and a long-lasting battery life of 70+ hours before needing to recharge.

It also has a comfortable design with soft memory foam ear cushions surrounded by high-quality, durable, and breathable fabric to ensure the user's comfort for many hours of gaming.

If you don't mind losing out on PC-specific features of the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro PC Edition, like Razer Synapse support and additional audio profiles, then we highly recommend the Xbox Edition of this headset, as it is a worthy purchase for any hardcore Xbox fan.

Amazon is currently hosting a 35% discount, slashing the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro's MSRP down from $199.99 to $129.99. This will save you $70, which is enough money to buy a fully priced Xbox title.
