The new Razer Kraken V4 wireless model offers 2.4 GHz radio connectivity using the Razer HyperSpeed Wireless USB-C Bluetooth 5.3 adapter, as well as a USB Type-A cable. The headset can be used with a PC, as well as with Sony PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck and mobile devices.
The headset is powered by 40mm Razer TriForce Titanium drivers. The declared range of reproduced frequencies is from 20 Hz to 28 kHz. Kraken V4 has support for THX Spatial Audio technology (simulated 7.1 surround sound) with THX settings for over 60 different games. The manufacturer notes that the headset is equipped with a high-quality retractable wideband microphone from the BlackShark V2 Pro model. In addition, the headset received a special button for adjusting the balance of the game volume and the speaker’s speech, as well as a microphone on/off button and a special programmable SmartSwitch button.
The Razer Kraken V4 features nine-zone Razer Chroma RGB lighting with 16.8 million colors. In Razer HyperSpeed Wireless mode and with the backlight turned off, the headset will last up to 70 hours on a single battery charge, and up to 35 hours with the backlight.
