Professional reviewers commend the Kraken 2019 for its comfort-focused aluminum frame, cooling-gel cushions and expansive 12 Hz-28 kHz driver range, delivering immersive audio for extended gaming. However, they criticize its overt gaming aesthetic, lower sensitivity compared to the V2, and the absence of wireless or advanced features, positioning it as a solid but no-frills wired option.
Everyday users echo the comfort and noise-isolation benefits, especially praising the lightweight feel for long sessions and the convenience of a universal 3.5 mm jack. Common complaints revolve around the headset's bulky size for smaller heads and its bold gaming look, which some find conspicuous in non-gaming environments.
Professional reviewers and editors consistently commend the G733 for its blend of lightweight comfort, high-quality audio, and reliable LIGHTSPEED wireless connectivity, highlighting Blue VO!CE mic processing and DTS surround.
Users praise the lightweight comfort, long battery life, and RGB customization, while noting the lack of ANC and reduced battery when lighting is active.
