here are the new Barracuda headsets, a combination of lifestyle and gaming

Nearly a year after the release of the first model, Razer is doing it again and has just announced a new line of Barracuda headsets in Standard, Pro and X versions. As usual with the fluorescent green snake brand, once a product is announced it is immediately available for sale. Therefore, from now on, one can be tempted by these three versions of this Barracuda headset, the main task of which was to combine the performance of a gaming headset (low latency, microphone clarity) with the design of headphones made for outdoor demonstration. We don’t know if the result will live up to the ambition, but Razer is doing its best to combine the best of both worlds. In any case, we find state-of-the-art tools such as hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) technology to isolate external noise, Razer SmartSwitch Dual Wireless technology that allows you to connect the headset to two devices at the same time. time and smoothly move from one to another. For example, this allows him to play on PC and switch his Barracuda Pro headset into call pickup mode with the push of a button without having to disconnect and reconnect a third device.

Razer says all Barracuda models are compatible with Razer’s HyperSpeed ​​Wireless (2.4GHz) and Bluetooth 5.2 technologies, which is really useful for preventing lag in games. Each model also includes new speakers, which vary by model, but guarantee surround sound. What’s more, since the THX brand has been owned by Razer since 2016, we also find technologies there to provide excellent acoustics in games and more immersive and realistic sound when it comes to music and movies.
