Razer Barracuda X 2021 vs. 2022 a Real World Test and Review

Ғылым және технология

I purchased both the Razer Barracuda X 2021 and the Razer Barracuda X 2022 - and I am pretty sure that i have found the best wireless headset under $100, but the problem is, that there is two of them, so which should you pick. In this video i'll tell you why its not worth upgrading, and why you should consider getting the old 2021 to save some money, if its still possible for you.

    Sorry to hear that. Some say you can save up to $40 by getting 2021 - i recommend really considering getting the same, i have switched to bluetooth on accident like 7 or 10 times now - it's not as fast to connect with.

    Full agreement with your point that this headset has a weak body and is prone to constant stretching or tearing. It's definitely not a go for those with larger head like me

    I own 2022, wanted to buy studio headphones but I thought that it will cool to try witeless headphones. Maybe the sound quality is not the best but good enough, especially after eq for gaming and anything I do on pc, including editing + I always prefer3d listening to music from my phone on nothing ear 2.The battery is life is amazing, for such cheap headphones, I dont think I ever charged them more than maybe 1,5-2 times per week. No regrets

    ​@@DanglishReviews So I've been using the new one for a week now and I've noticed some differences. The new one feels sturdier since it doesn't move even if I tilt my head. (The first one did this a lot although this might just be a user error on my part.) The texture is rougher of the plastic on both the headset and the adapter is rougher. There's also a difference in the beep sounds when connecting or low battery. The new one sounds deeper.

    Hey Bro, The timing of this video is just perfect.. Thank you for making this video. I'm looking forward to buy this. But here in india, The 2022 model costs appx 120 USD on local stores and 140 USD on amazon. However the 2021 model Costs 50 USD in local stores. Now, I need suggestions from you. I currently have HS50 and it's broken. Thinking to upgrade to this minimal looking headphones. I can bear 20 hrs of battery life. However, I have two questions 1. Is there any difference of sound between the two model or it's the same sound quality.? 2. Does the 2021 model got the option to use as a wired one using 3.5mm jack cable?
