Razer made great gaming headsets like the Razer Kraken 7.1 or Razer Tiamat, but so far we haven’t seen a new wireless gaming headset since the Chimaera 5.1.
Today, the Razer ManO’War will be added to Razer’s wireless gaming headset arsenal and it is an exciting one.
Named after a deadly, venomous sea creature, the Razer ManO’War promises a zero lag with 7.1 surround sound experience to give you the edge in the battlefield.
Powered by Razer Surround software engine on a 50mm Neodymium magnet drivers, the ManO’War gaming headset helps you in pinpointing the enemies before you even see them on screen. There is also a positional audio calibration to further adjust the experience to your liking – for example, some like to amplify the rear channel more to catch that unwanted backstabber in an FPS game.
The battery is rechargeable through a USB charging cable and gives the ManO’War around 14 hours of continuous gaming before you have to recharge it back. Or, if you turn the Chroma lighting off, you can further add an extra 6 hours in.
It’s compatible with PC, Mac, and also Playstation 4 (note: you’ll only get a 2.0 stereo audio output and a Spectrum cycling lighting effect).
