Kraken V3 pro (personal review)(smaller than before)

For starters I've been buying RAZER headsets since the beginning, and have always enjoyed the audio quality.
I've also been very happy with the true over ear design of every RAZER headset I've bought, until now.
The thx is interesting, but running it regular works better depending on the input from the source.

Now one thing to note about the kraken v3 pro is they are smaller than their predecessors.
All of the previous headsets I've bought were true over ear headsets where this one is "one size fits most" like every other brand out there. So comfort is now an issue for me. I used to be able to wear their headsets for up to 18 hours, but not these. They press on the cartilage and cause pressure sores. Keep in mind this won't be true for everyone but is true for those of us with slightly larger ear sizes.

I do like that you can run the different settings (thx or non thx) depending on what I'm listening to though the switching capability of the headset is a little clunky. The headset is designed with comfort in mind, but not for everyone.

The haptics is interesting in it's own right, but to me adds too much vibration to the headset and since comfort is already an issue it adds to the discomfort.

The 44 hour battery life is exceptional (not running lights and haptics)(11 hours with both on).

The adjustable sound settings are also a boon compared to some of the competitors headsets my friends have had me check out.

On a side note there have been other issues which I'm still trying to work out with support, But I'm holding off on that till I finish talking with them.
