Today’s best UK Prime Day Razer Kraken Kitty deal
Razer Kraken Kitty:£149.99£99.99 at AmazonCome on, you know you want one. You can save fifty quid on the Kitty Edition of the ol' reliable Razer Kraken gaming headset this Prime Day, a great pair of gaming cans with added RGB lighting and 7.1 surround sound.
I’m no stranger to Razer kit. While I might not own one of thoselovely Blade laptops, I’ve been using a Razer Huntsman keyboard since they were first released and I’ve been partial to the Kraken headset line in the past. The Kitty edition is essentially the same tried-and-tested Kraken headset in Razer’s ‘quartz pink’ color scheme, with added RGB lighting and - of course - those perky cat ears.
Here’s the thing, though: I’m buying this because I am, deep down, an extremely silly fella who wants to make the rest of the TechRadar team have a sensible chuckle in a virtual meeting, but I genuinelywasalready angling for a new gaming headset this Prime Day.
With that in mind, I’d done a bit of research ahead of the big day, and while my first pick (the premium HyperX Cloud Revolver 7.1) sadly didn’t make an appearance in the UK Prime Day sales, the Razer Kraken did - and having used one in the past, I knew it was a sound choice.
I appreciate that I might not be the target audience Razer had in mind, but come on! A lightweight, durable frame with ear cushions that use cooling gel to stop my ears from overheating is a lovely proposition, and these 50mm neodymium drivers use 7.1 surround sound for pinpointing enemy positions in online games. The retractable mic means I can garage it when I’m not using voice chat, too. Once this baby arrives, I’ll be ready to do battle - and look absolutely amazing doing it.
