Razer Barracuda Pro brings awesome noise cancellation and 40 hours battery life for RM1,399
Razer constantly pushes the envelope when it comes to the quality of their gaming gear and their expanded Razer Barracuda series of gaming headsets aims to top the competition by combining performance and value with three new headsets at different price points dubbed the Barracuda X, Barracuda and the top of the line Barracuda Pro. The new series also features a more understated, classy looking design that also makes them ideal for use beyond pure gaming and for general scenarios such as the office and in more social settings.
