Has Razer fixed the hinge cracking issue on the new Barracuda X Chroma? Hi everyone, I want to buy the new Razer Barracuda X Chroma, but I know there was a big problem with the plastic hinges breaking and cracking on older Barracuda models. I'm worried because the Chroma version uses the same physical design. I'm asking anyone who owns a Barracuda X Chroma: Has Razer really improved the plastic quality, or is it still fragile and prone to breaking? Thanks!

Hi rushMagentaHazecounty858,

I’m sorry to hear about what happened to your headset. Could you please provide more details regarding how the hinge broke? Before the issue occurred, were there any incidents with your headset (e.g., being dropped)? Did you happen to use more force than usual when removing the headset? Were there any instances of pulling or tugging on the headset that may have stretched it beyond its limit?

To set your expectations, Razer currently does not provide repairs for peripheral devices. For more information about your device’s warranty coverage, you may refer to the full details of the Razer Warranty Policy – Exclusions and Limitations.

In the meantime, kindly PM me your device serial number, and some clear photos of the broken hinge so I can take a closer look. You may upload the images to a hosting service such as Google Drive and share the link. Please ensure the file’s privacy is set to “Anyone with the link” so I can access it without requesting additional permissions.
