Razer launches Barracuda series headphones with dual-wireless

Razer is revamping its headphone line-up this week with the new Barracuda series. The Razer Barracuda X, Barracuda and Barracuda Pro are all launching today, designed to be your go-to headphones for everything from gaming at your PC, to listening to music or watching videos from your phone while on the go. 

Starting with the Razer Barracuda Pro, this headset can be connected to two devices at the same time, and you can switch seamlessly between the two as needed thanks to Razer SmartSwitch Dual Wireless. The headset also features Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation Technology, so you can block out any outside noise and focus on whatever you are listening to in any environment.

Under the ear cups, you will find Razer's TriForce Bio-Cellulose 50mm drivers, with a THX Achromatic Audio Amplifier, and support for THX Spatial Audio. On a single charge, the Barracuda Pro should offer up to 40 hours of use. You can also connect the headset to legacy devices with a 3.5mm jack cable.

The cheaper standard Barracuda and Barracuda X offer a different mix of features. For instance, the Barracuda X has 40mm drivers instead, but retains the dual-wireless functionality. You can see the specs and features for each headset outlined below:
