It’s made entirely of plastic, with memory foam pads covered in the same mesh fabric as the Pro model and headsets like the Razer BlackShark V2 and its Pro variant. It’s lightweight, and the headband provides just the right amount of clamping force to feel secure. It’s also easy to make a good seal. The headphone hinges offer a decent range of tilt and rotate to a flat position to accommodate most head shapes. Using the gaming headset is pretty easy and requires less effort than the Pro model. If you own an Xbox, all you have to do is pair the headset with it, and the two devices will connect automatically from then on. There is no Bluetooth or wired option, so you can only connect to an Xbox or PC with an Xbox Wireless adapter, which is not included with the headset. Since the Razer Kaira Wireless is an Xbox Wireless gaming headset, there is no software component to worry about. Razer Synapse doesn’t recognize a headset connected to an Xbox Wireless adapter (the Windows volume controls don’t even work with it), so everything is handled by the hardware. According to Razer, the Kaira Wireless lasts up to 15 hours on a single charge. In our testing, we found that the headset lasted 21 hours and 39 minutes at a constant volume of 75 dB(SPL). That’s not the best result for a gaming headset, but it’s not bad and almost identical to the Razer Kaira Pro. Gaming with the Razer Kaira Wireless is largely the same experience as with the Razer Kaira Pro, which means pretty good. It’s comfortable and light enough for long sessions. On the Xbox and PC, the headset supports Windows Sonic Surround Sound, which isn’t the most intense surround sound standard, but it does the job. The Razer Kaira Wireless can barely compete with the best on the market, but it offers above average isolation for a gaming headset. It won’t do much in very noisy environments, like a coffee shop, but since it doesn’t have the Bluetooth connectivity of its Pro sibling, that’s not really an issue. You shouldn’t have any problems hearing things over the typical noises of the house, but you probably won’t miss doorbells either.
