The Razer BlackShark has established itself as one of the most popular gaming headsets around, and for good reason. Since the BlackShark V2 Pro, its practical design and solid performance have proved ideal for serious gamers. Now the series is back for its latest update, with the Razer BlackShark V3 Pro bringing a surprisingly long list of improvements to the V2 Pro (2023), most notably the addition of active noise canceling (ANC). With these enhancements comes a significant increase in price, though, making a recommendation far from a nailed-on certainty.I've tested the BlackShark V3 Pro to see how much difference all these changes make and to see whether Razer's latest is good enough to retain the BlackShark's top spot on our best gaming headset guide. For those that definitely can't or won't stretch to the new high price of this headset, you can always check out the new BlackShark V3 and BlackShark V3 X Hyperspeed that keep much of the same core design but drop a few features for dramatically lower prices.[site_jumplinks] Continue reading Razer BlackShark V3 Pro review - wireless gaming headset excellenceMORE FROM PCGAMESN: Razer Blade 16 2025 review, Razer DeathAdder V3 review , Best gaming mouse
