Razer BlackShark V2 Pro Wireless Gaming Headset (2023), Black – 70-Hour Battery, Super Wideband Mic, Bluetooth 5.2

The BlackShark V2 Pro Black on this page is the 2023 generation of Razer’s wireless esports headset, not the original 2020 model. Razer’s changes were aimed at competitive players: a new super wideband microphone, pro-tuned FPS audio profiles stored on the headset, Bluetooth alongside the 2.4 GHz dongle, USB-C charging and a battery rated at up to 70 hours, more than triple the previous version. The black finish is the standard colour, and Razer also sells it in white.

How to Tell the 2023 BlackShark V2 Pro Black From the Old One

Razer’s own FAQ gives the quickest check: look at the charging port. The 2023 BlackShark V2 Pro Black charges over USB Type-C, while the previous generation used Micro-USB. The newer model also adds Bluetooth 5.2, the super wideband mic and onboard audio profiles, and its battery is rated at up to 70 hours.

This matters when you compare prices, because stock of the first-generation model may still be on sale. Everything on this page refers to the 2023 BlackShark V2 Pro Black.

Sound: TriForce Titanium 50 mm Drivers and FPS Profiles

Razer lists TriForce Titanium 50 mm drivers with titanium-coated diaphragms, a frequency response of 12 Hz to 28 kHz, 32 ohm impedance at 1 kHz and sensitivity of 100 dBSPL/mW at 1 kHz. The oval earcups use breathable memory foam and advanced passive noise isolation; there is no active noise cancellation.

The main competitive feature is the set of pro-tuned FPS audio profiles, developed with esports players and switchable with a button on the BlackShark V2 Pro Black itself, so they work without software running. On Windows 10 64-bit or later, THX Spatial Audio adds virtual surround through Razer Synapse; Razer states THX Spatial Audio is only available on Windows.

The HyperClear Super Wideband Mic

The detachable mic captures a wider frequency range than a standard headset mic, which Razer says gives clearer, more natural voice for team comms and streaming. Razer’s specification lists a unidirectional pickup pattern, 100 Hz to 10 kHz frequency response, a signal-to-noise ratio of at least 60 dB and sensitivity of -42 plus or minus 3 dBV/Pa at 1 kHz. There is a mic mute toggle on the earcup, and you can remove the mic entirely when you use the BlackShark V2 Pro Black for music outside.

Wireless, Battery and Compatibility

Connection is Razer HyperSpeed Wireless at 2.4 GHz through a USB Type-A dongle, or Bluetooth 5.2 with AAC and SBC codecs. SmartSwitch lets you switch between the two with a double press, for example from the PC game to a phone call. Razer lists compatibility with PC (dongle or Bluetooth), PlayStation (dongle), and mobile devices with a Type-A port or Bluetooth 5.2, including Android and iOS. Razer sells separate Xbox-licensed versions of this headset; this standard model does not list Xbox support.

Battery life is up to 70 hours, and Razer says a 15-minute charge gives 6 hours of play. Razer’s newsroom notes a USB extender in the package, so you can place the BlackShark V2 Pro Black dongle closer to you.

Comfort and the Black Finish

Razer lists the weight at 320 g, with a steel-reinforced headband, strengthened sliders and a refined clamping force for long sessions. Black hides wear on the headband and cushion edges well, and the BlackShark V2 Pro Black suits the majority of setups. Wipe the earcup shells with a dry cloth, and let the foam cushions air out after long sessions in a warm room rather than storing the headset in a closed drawer.

Who This Is Not For

Xbox players, since Xbox support comes with Razer’s separate Xbox-licensed versions. Anyone who needs active noise cancellation: this headset relies on passive isolation. Buyers who want a wired 3.5 mm option, because Razer lists no audio cable for this model. And Mac or console users who expect THX Spatial Audio, which Razer limits to Windows.
