However, the more discerning bunch who care about audio quality may not be easily purr-suaded.
I get why that may seem hard; this pair of gaming headset is adorable and completely irresistible.
However, it may not be for you if youre more discerning about audio quality.

And, I am an absolute sucker for all things pink and all things cat.
So I wouldnt knock it just yet just because youre used to great-sounding audio devices.
Instead, read this review first before hitting buy.

Design-wise, of course, the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 BT is winning.
Who among us doesnt love cats, after all?
(If you hate cats, youre a monster, and I dont want to be friends!)
Adding to its appeal are customizable RGB lighting zones on the cat ears and the earcups.
This wireless gaming headset isnt all looks either.
Being a lower mid-range gaming headset, there are noticeable signs of corners being cut here.
And the leatherette used is neither the softest nor the most breathable.
You just have to remember the presses and holds for every function.
I only wish Razer also added a way to customize the RGB lighting on-the-fly.
Dont expect high-quality audio on the Razer Kraken Kitty V2 BT.
That isnt to say that it sounds bad, because it doesnt.
And its got a bright sound profile that I think a lot of people would appreciate.
Thats whether Im playingHogwarts Legacyon my PC, playingCooking Madnesson my phone, or listening to my favorite tunes.
The low end is also underwhelming, even when you switch to Razers Enhanced Bass sound profile.
The issue that bothers me most of all, however, is the clipping.
Theres definitely digital distortion happening that might be possibly related to the headset not having a lot of headroom.
The integrated beamforming mics are less-than purr-fect either.
They have no issues with plosives or sibilance, and you will come through loud and audible.
However, youll also sound a little distorted and not crisp.
At least, the battery life is decent.
However, I also expected it to have better audio performance at that price.
Its got lots of volume, an immersive sound, an amazing mic, and even better battery life.
I also made sure to test its features, including its multi-function button and its battery life.
