Choose the Razer Kraken V3 if cost is a primary concern and you prefer wired over-ear headphones with a focus on gaming, as they have good sound quality, comfort, and build quality with a boom mic for communication. However, for versatile use including sports, calls and meetings, and travel, along with better overall sound quality and active noise cancelling, the Sennheiser Momentum Sport earbuds are a superior choice. The Sennheisers are also sweatproof and come with fitness tracking features, but they're a premium product and therefore more expensive. The Razers are not wireless, have no active noise cancelling, and lack the fitness tracking and sweatproof features. Give Feedback

Soundguys
Sam Smart | November 2022
"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."

Amelia Schwanke | January 2024
"We hadn't been expecting a new pair of dedicated sports buds but the surprise was nonetheless exciting. I got to try out the new buds at CES 2024 and while they have stayed true to delivering that "signature" Sennheiser sound, with a wide soundstage and strong sense of detail, it’s the extra wearable tech inside them that stands out to me against the best workout headphones."
