      All apple products support only AAC, just 1 grade better than SBC codec. Apt X is better than AAC, and this Opus supports it.

        The Sony 1000XM2 and XM3 supports the better LDAC, but they are not USD200.

                        Without that gamery RGB accent, this might be good decision, although with thatdesign plus cheap looking semi-gloss plastic body makes it looks like another cheap Sony knockoff headphone.

                            Clearly inspired in Sony's WH-H900N.

                              Bluetooth 4.2 in 2020. No, Razer! Not you too!

                                  looks almost identical to Sony's WH-1000 series, but without support for higher quality codecs. just buy a pair of Sonys instead, doesn't have to be the newest model

                                    Anonymous, 20 May 2020Why only BT4.2? 5.0 has been out long enough.Well, there's the Sony XM4's to look forward to. However the Razer might just offer better call quality because they're garbage on the XM3, especially the Bluetooth protocol used which for some reason has a separate profile for calls.

                                        Have to say theses looks cool.
