Razer ManO'War Wireless PC Gaming Headset Review

Audio/Others by stefan @ 2016-06-28

The ManO’War headset is also marketed as a 7.1 virtual surround sound solution and thanks to the Synapse software, it can deliver good precision on the battlefield if we calibrate it to match our preferences; also, thanks to the 50mm drivers we will get powerful bass which immerses us further inside the game. With the ManO’War we no longer need to think about battery life much when having long LAN parties because the headset can provide us with up to 14 hours of continuous usage, while keeping the Razer Chroma lighting active. If we decide we do not need the LED lights in order to impress our rivals, then the usage time can climb up to 20 hours; if the headset is not used for a while, it will turn itself off in order to conserve battery life.

Its pick-up pattern is unidirectional and thanks to its shape and construction, we can say that it is a breeze to operate; the tip of the microphone has a red LED ring, which signals when it is muted:

 

 

 

 

The headband is featuring a central layer of memory foam which is covered with leatherette:

 

 

 

The headband can be also adjusted at will and markings are available on each side for guidance:

 

 

 

On the top area of the headband we do have a debossed Razer logo:

 

 

 

Coming back to the USB dock we have talked about previously, this one comes with a signature green USB port, mostly seen with the Razer laptops; this accessory is meant for connecting the USB 2.4GHz Wi-Fi dongle, but we can also use it for charging the headset in case we plug the adapter somewhere else:

 

 

 

Under the dock we do have a thin layer of rubber, so it will stay steady on the table:

 

 

 

As we have seen with the dongle, the USB port of the dock also features gold plating:

 

 

 

Before using the headset, we will charge it fully and when it’s done, the red LED on the Power button will turn off:
