Why I've returned my Kraken V3 Pro (proof included)

I recently bought a Razer Kraken V3 Pro and there's two issues that made me return it: 1. HAPTIC SCREECHING/INTERFERENCE Pretty often when Hypersense (haptics) is enabled, an electronic screeching occurs in the sound. I've recorded this electronic screeching with an external mic and here's how it sounds: It won't always occur but when it occurs, the only way to make it go away is turning the headset off/on again. The erronous sound you are hearing is not the haptic actuators moving, it's some sort of electronic interference. I know it's not the actuators because sometimes Hypersense works fine without producing the screeching noise. The screeching/interference could be caused by the actuators though. This is something Razer has to look into. What bothers me a lot is that this issue is being reported for a pretty long time and Razer is still selling the headset. To me it's unacceptable for a somewhat premium headet. Here's some threads and comments I collected regarding the electro

Razer Viper 8K system lag in Apex Legends (video)

Hi,I'm on a Ryzen 7 5800X, RTX 3080, NVMe storage, X570 motherboard and I have this annoying issue where Apex Legends starts stuttering after about 2 hours or playing. I've checked my temperatures and neither my CPU, nor my GPU is overheating but I've narrowed the issue down to the mouse polling rate. I've attached a step by step video showcasing my problem, see the end of this post. Please watch the video before possibly dismissing this issue.  First, I start Apex with the mouse set to only a 1000Hz because Apex doesn't support high polling rate. After about 2 hours of playing on 1000Hz, the system begins the stutter and the only way to fix this is to set the polling rate to 500Hz (not really why I bought a gaming mouse). An alternative fix is to restart Apex which is obviously not possible during a match.Can you please look into this? I didn't buy a gaming mouse to have it set to 500Hz. I can understand if the Apex engine doesn't support 8000Hz but even 1000Hz seems an issue.Mouse: R

Razer Kraken V3 Pro silent audio when idle for a short time

OS: Windows 10 21H1, Synapse: V3.7.429.50715 Hi, Does anyone have a fix for this? When connected wirelessly, if you don't play audio for a short while through the headset and after that, start playing audio again, the first approximate 0.5-1.0 secs is not audible on the headset. So what I mean for example: - I play no audio for like a minute. - I start playing audio again after that minute. Now, the first 0.5-1.0 seconds of what I'm playing is not audible. It's not a delay because when I start hearing audio again after the 0.5-1.0 seconds, the timeline is as 0.5-1.0 seconds has already played. I assume this is some sort of power saving function where it idles the headset if no audio is being played for a while but I can't turn it off anywhere and it's pretty annoying. Especially when you're like editing a video or similar. It doesn't matter if I turn THX on/off or which of the two Kraken output devices I select. Also, it is NOT the Synapse > Power > Power Saving option as that

Double click with optical switches?

Hi, I thought the great benefit of optical switches is that they aren't prone to ghost double clicks, at least that's what everyone is saying. With ghost clicks I mean, you press the button once but it registers twice. I have a Razer Viper 8K here, only 6 months old and the middle mouse button literally double clicks when I press it once. To make sure this isn't related to my computer I tried the mouse in another computer, even with a different OS, and the exact same issue occurred. How is this even possible? Especially with optical switches. I always handle my equipment with care so no throwing, liquid or any other crazy stuff.

I have world's largest stock of Razer Naga 2012

That's right. Unfortunately they don't make these anymore but every now and then, I snatch one from second hand markets like Ebay, clean it up, replace the USB cable, replace the mouse skates and if necessary, replace other parts. I really wish they would make a slim FPS mouse with a bunch of vertical flat side buttons like the 2012 version has with the slim side cover (slim side cover = two units from the left) and I don't get why they haven't already. Razer's niche used to be MMO's, games with a lot of keybinds but if you look at modern FPS games like Overwatch, Fortnite, Apex, Paladins, CoD (Warzone), etc, they have a TON of keybinds too. So why don't make a suitable FPS mouse for FPS gamers too? The current Naga's are far from suitable for FPS's because of their weight, bulkiness and large non-flat thumb buttons. Razer's FPS line is nice but they only have two side buttons at max.
