TLDR: So far so good! Only used them for a few hours but set up was easy and I love the product so far.
I was a little disappointed in years prior when spending BIG bucks on wireless headphones. I wont mention brand names but even well reviewed devices caused me bad luck. I spent LOTS of time reading reviews and toiled over how much to spend and what would be both easy to use and sound really good. I think my search paid off because thats exactly what I got with this product.
I just started using the BlacksharkV2 Pro but for one... the set up IS actually as easy as advertised.
I charged the device as instructed. Put the wireless dongle in the USB3.0 hub of my laptop. The software just installed on its own.
I didnt have to break my brain tweaking windows preferences everything just did what the isntructions said it would. Following them was easy.
Im not an expert level computer technician and the software is very intuitive. It automatically detects when the device is connected and you can customize settings on the fly. And there arent TOO many complicated settings to tweak. So maybe expert level users would be turned off. But for me its "just right"... enough for me to feel satisfied in the tweaking I would expect from a higher end product but not so much that its stressful to use. I booted up Madden, played with settings for about 5 minutes and was gaming from that point on. As far as what settings do... I knew what I was measing with and what I didnt know was easily explained right there on the software. Im so impressed with the software that Im considering using this brand for other devices.
These are first impressions but the sound quality is quite nice. Im no audio freak but the quality exceeds expectations, especially after messing with the settings.
Functionality is fine. With wireless headphones I expect the controls to be on the headset itself. This means the buttons are small and tight together by nature, but this design is as convenient as i think it could be. The mute button feels good and is easy to hit. The volume control dial is easy to find on your head. The features advertised work well and didnt let me down.
My only gripe is that I had some trouble with the detachable mic. I have the settings fully cranked up on my mic output and its STILL a touch low on dischord for my team mates. I had some issues getting it to face the right way but once I did I found the quality acceptable. The actual connection from the mic to the headset isnt all that sturdy so it took some fiddling at first but I havent had problems since I positioned it how I like. The downside is that it somewhay defeats the purpose of having a detachable mic if the set up is so fiddly that it has to be JUST RIGHT every time.
I always get worried with devices like headphones that they look differently than pictured. These cans are as sleek as I expected. No surprise silly flashy lights like my last pair. Theyre nice and comfy on my head. For me its a perfect balance of snugging to my head while moving around a little without causing too much uncomfortable pressure.

UNINSTALL RAZER SYNAPSE and these will sound fantastic
Another Update: If you are noticing that these headphones sound lousy on your PC, muddy mid tones and non crisp audio, simply uninstall Razer Synapse and they will sound SO much better. I spent hours fiddling around with the EQ settings and I could never get them right even though they sound fantastic on my PS5. By uninstalling Synapse and just running these direct from the USB dongle, they sound so much more clear and crisp.Also, if you're using windows, download Dolby atmos and just keep it on the default settings. I found that gives the most crisp, full, 3d audio that sounds fantasticYou can use Dolby Atmos through windows if you want to tweek the sound and get 3D audio and it even has an EQ so you have the best of both worlds. This should dramatically improve the audio qualityUpdate: had these things for a few months and I still love them! They work great on my PS5 as well as my PC although it can get a little difficulty finding the right EQ settings and changes to them will drastically improve or degrade the sound. All in all, five out of five product----These things are amazing! I was looking for a good pair of wireless headphones that were compatible with the 3D sound on my PS5. With the included dongle, these things are basically just plug and play; both my PS5 and PC effortless and quickly recognize the headphones when they are turned on.I'm not an audiophile, but audio in music and games is important to me. These things really shine especially at this price point and the fact that they are wireless. When I first tested them on my PS5, I wasn't blown away with the 3D audio, until I switched by to my old but high quality sanheauser headphones. WOW what a difference in audio quality and spatial awareness.As with any good headphones, you're not getting the most out of them if you're not properly equalizing them. The headphones come with decent presets (on the synapse PC app) but I've included a better equalization in the picture. Switch between the default preset and this and you will really hear how well these headphones can shine with proper equalization. Very clear tones with rich bass!The headphones are high quality. They do have a light grip on your head and and they will move around on your head, but for a person who wears glasses this is a good thing since they dramatically increase the comfort level and reduce the change of your glasses causing pressure points. The material on the headphones is a little spongy to finger prints but not a big deal.The only thing that makes me nervous is the USB dongle situation. I would really like to order an extra dongle since I hope to take these between my PC and my PS5, so I worry if i lose this I will be out of luck. I bought a third party usb dongle but I can't connect them, so I think you are stuck with the factory Razer dongle that doesn't seem easy to replace. Not a negative, just a small drawback. I would feel much better if I could either buy a replacement dongle on razers website (you can't at the moment) or have the ability to connect to a third party dongleFor 170, these seem like a screaming deal. It's so much nicer playing on my PC now with fewer wires and they sound as good if not better than my wired headphones. I'd highly recommend these

El microfono solo lo he utilizado en caso de emergencia y se agradece bastante que sea remobible debido a que de esa forma es demasiado facil comer sin ensuciar nada.
La bateria si dura aproximadamente las 18 horas que RAZER promete, aunque yo recomendaria cargar los audifonos cada que se pueda y configurarlos para que se apaguen de manera automatica despues de 15 minutos. El software no es necesario usarlo debido a que se guarda en la memoria de los audifonos a no ser de que se quiera utilizar THX SPATIAL AUDIO pero yo no lo recomiendo.
La conectividad si es un tema a mejorar debido a que despues de un tiempo los audifonos se empiezan a desconectar automaticamente si no esta colocado el USB en la manera correcta y los audifonos esten cerca, de igual forma se desconecta pero uno se puede acostumbrar con el tiempo.
En consola no los he usado demasiado pero funcionan a la perfeccion y los problemas de conectividad desaparecen.
Lo unico que si no me agrada en nada es que al conectar los audifonos en otro puerto USB diferente al que se conecto aparecen como otro sistema de audio y se configuran con un 100% de volumen. Esto no desaparece si se coloca un multipuertos.
En cuanto a los cables que tiene, cuenta con un USB para cargarlo y un 3.5mm que es demasiado corto, personalmente pienso que es demasiado corto a diferencia de su version cableada
