If you're seeking wireless convenience and active noise canceling for environments like air travel, the JBL Tune 760NC would be a better option, but keep in mind they have a lower battery life and are not ideal for gaming due to latency issues. On the other hand, for gamers, the Razer Kraken V3 with virtual surround and a boom mic offers a more immersive experience and potentially better durability, but they lack wireless capability and active noise cancelling which makes them less versatile for travel and noisy environments. Both have good build and sound quality, yet for calls, meetings, or exercise, neither stands out. Give Feedback

Major HiFi
Staff | May 2023
"The JBL 760NC offers quite a solid and moderately-above-average sonic performance for wireless headphones in this price tier. As usual, JBL outperforms more conventional big names like Apple or Beats. Listeners are given a clean, detailed, and mostly neutral sound that, typical to Harman, holds a universal appeal that seems unlikely to offend."

"This Razer Kraken V3 is a great headset for gamers who want comfort, surround sound, and software customization for a reasonable price. It's primarily a headset for PC gamers since THX Spatial audio is only supported on Windows. If you want something more multifaceted for multiple systems, this won't be an ideal headset for you. Luckily, there are plenty of competent Kraken V3 alternatives available to you."
