What customers say about "Key Specs"

Razer Thresher Gaming Headset

They are pretty big in size, but due to the suspension headband design they do not feel that heavy.
To say these headphones are noise cancelling, is an understatement. I can't hear anything while playing.
The retractable mic is great for getting out of the way if necessary and not lose it, like with detachable microphones.
When they say they are noise isolating they sure mean it, I just didn't know it would block the sound of my voice too! Great headphones, highly recommend.
These hold a great charge, are comfortable, isolate noise, and allow little headband adjustments.

What customers say about "Headset"

Razer Thresher Gaming Headset

Footsteps are clearly heard, as well as the sound of my bow being drawn, clearer than my home theater system.
The bass is superb, as are the highs. Amazing sound quality.
The ear cushions quality is superb and sound is amazing.
Incredibly comfortable. High quality design, and the sound blew me away.
Sometimes the bass can be too loud and sometimes with no way to adjust.

What customers say about "Microphone"

Razer Thresher Gaming Headset

The mic quality is excellent and the sound is great. I was afraid of this making my ears sweat but no, they are pretty comfortable.
The mic doesn't always want to stay in the same spot and works well, but always works even if its not pointing the right direction.
The mic is very clear. The best wireless headset I have owned so far.
Online players say that the mic cuts in and out, and that I sound "robotic" at times.
Mic would stop working after it has been retracted. It has spotty connection.

What customers say about "Features"

Razer Thresher Gaming Headset

Connected to my XBox One S in 15 seconds. I like the fact I can turn on the headset and it automatically turns on my Xbox One S.
The build quality of this headset is nice. Also not having to deal with Synapse is another plus.
It's rated for 16 hours battery and I think it just about hits that time.
It comes with a nice little retractable mic, which has a red indicator when muted.
The headset had some nice features, like the volume adjustment for both game volume and chat mixer.
