![]() The 2023 edition has also seen a large increase in battery life. Plugging in the newer microphone into the older headset will not automatically make the older one sound better. I believe the microphone improvement has something to do with the optimisation of the product's internals. When I tried to plug the old 2020's microphone into the 2023 edition, it sounded clear as well. The new Blackshark V has a 'wideband' microphone, but to be honest, is not the reason why it has much better quality than its predecessor. The Blackshark V edition comes with a new mic, but that is not the sole reason why it sounds extremely good. There were a few exceptions in the market like some of Corsair's headsets, but generally, microphone audio quality is one of the reasons why I still do not recommend wireless headsets to the general public, unless if you want the convenience. It seems to be a thing with wireless headsets, to have really crappy microphone audio quality (yes, it even persists today) due the the wireless bandwidth. Putting it, bluntly, the quality of it was no better than a cheap $10 microphone. It sounded extremely thin, and you were better off using a separate microphone if you wanted someone to hear your voice clearly. In the older Blackshark V2 Pro, the microphone quality was atrocious. It sounds extremely clear, and I would even daresay that it is much closer to a condenser microphone than any other headset on the market, wireless or not. So, what's new in the Razer Blackshark V?įor starters, the mic is perhaps the most improved part of the headset compared to the 2020 version. In fact, it impressed me so much that I am not shy to say that this is probably the best wireless headset in the market for now. So, believe me when I say that I have tried to look for flaws on the Blackshark V, but I just couldn't find any notable ones (except the software). ![]() My review of Razer's Barracuda Pro and the Audio Mixer were pretty scathing, in my opinion, because they just couldn't live up to the expectations of what they were touting the products to be. To make it clear, I am not shy when it comes to calling out an extremely bad product. In comparison to the original 2020 version of the Blackshark V2 Pro, the 2023 edition has improved the device in so many ways that I wouldn't have bat an eyelid if Razer actually rebranded this as a V3. The Razer Blackshark V edition is a refresh of the esports-focused wireless gaming headset of the same name that was originally released in 2020.īut, in my eyes, this headset is so well-rounded that I would even recommend it for all kinds of usage, including for serious work. Don't be caught off-guard by the word 'esports' on the box, the Razer Blackshark V edition is a very capable wireless headset suitable for everything, including work.
