Our take

Based on 3 reviews

All 3 reviews agree the Razer Leviathan V2 delivers strong audio performance, with Tom’s Hardware, SlashGear, and PCMag Australia highlighting its sound quality, bass, and RGB lighting. They also concur that the system relies heavily on Razer Synapse software and lacks multiple physical audio inputs. Based on their tests, we conclude it suits dedicated PC gamers but falls short for multi-device or console users.

Tom’s Hardware and PCMag Australia criticize the absence of 3.5mm and optical inputs, while SlashGear adds the lack of HDMI, making console and TV setups impractical. Tom’s Hardware and SlashGear also flag Bluetooth audio quality as subpar, though PCMag Australia does not mention this. Buyers should weigh the immersive PC-focused design against limited connectivity and software dependency.

Pros

  • Full, crisp sound with thunderous bass
  • Customizable RGB lighting across 18 zones
  • Low-latency Bluetooth 5.2 connectivity
  • THX Spatial Audio and 7.1 surround support

Cons

  • Relies on Razer Synapse software
  • No 3.5mm, optical, or HDMI inputs
  • Subpar Bluetooth audio quality

Best for: PC gamers seeking immersive audio and RGB; avoid for console, TV, or multi-device setups.
