RazerWireless Control Pod: Advanced Audio Control for Nommo V2 & Leviathan V2 Speakers - RGB Light Customization - Rotatable, Clickable Dial & Source Button - Durable Aluminum Alloy - USB & Bluetooth

I bought this only to control my volume on my PC running Windows 11. I have no other Razor products, this works directly with my PC's Bluetooth. It works directly from the box without drivers or using Razor software.Functions- Turning right or left controls the volume- Pressing down once mutes- Double press pauses the audio (Does not work with Youtube)1. Unlike other reviews it wasn't hard at all to install batteries, turn to release the back, turn the opposite way to lock the back, super easy.2. I place the controller on mouse mat material and turning the wheel does not move the base as well, this would have been a deal breaker for me but was happy this wasn't the case for meOnly Negative- If I were to really nit-pick, I would say the the wheel is chucky (not alone isn't bad), it's a solid piece of hardware, being that the wheel is on the large size, the volume increments is smaller since it takes longer to turn the wheel. So going from 0 to 100% will take a few full turns to complete (but how often do you need to go from 0-100% quickly). Again, not a deal breaker.Overall, I'm really happy with it and recommend it fully as a volume controller.

I really wanted to like this device, but it is complete junk. Physically, the knurled knob feels nice, but it lacks heft and slides on the table too easily. The click is far too sensitive and doesn't have tactile feedback commensurate with a $50 device. Turning the knob is okay, it's smooth and just firm enough. However, with the lack of stability (slides around too easily), you can't just poke at it with a finger, you have to grab the knob. Also, there is no tactile feedback nor customizations.That's the good part. The bad part is that the Windows software is absolute garbage. I was not able to get it to properly install and run on my machine. I did get it to install and "run", but was never able to access any of the functions I wanted -- the ability to map the actions on the wheel to different behaviors. And it doesn't stop at the software. The firmware on the device is so bad, sometimes it takes 30 seconds or more for the wheel turn to take effect on my machine.I wish I had an alternative to suggest, but I do not at this time. I will not buy another Razer product due to this experience, they are far overpriced and only have a thin facade of quality. Run away from this junk and don't look back. Your life is better without this.

I was on the fence, but I can say this was a great purchase. it’s great to be able to control your video/audio without having to switch program focus. you can pause/play/mute/volume-control from anywhere. plus it looks really cool on your desk. i’m getting a second one for my laptop

Update: 3rd try finally got me a new device. The knob is sturdy and nicely built. Some of the photos have a grayish metal color. The device is darker metal material. Comes with 2x AAA Duracell batteries. I am using it for a easy volume control for my Windows machine on my desk. Love the way if feels an turns. It has a nice feel.At first the knob turn was a little more sturdy than I wanted. I opened the battery cover, removed the 4 screws, removed the part that holds the batteries, and then loosened the 2 board screws a slight bit. This will make your knob less firm and allow for the wheel to turn a slightly more with ease. Then I placed the parts back together making sure not to over-tighten 4 screws. Love it so far at 1 week of use.Original Review:Not sure what the problem is here, but I have ordered this product twice and it has been a used item. It has been opened, new seal broken, fingerprints all over, batteries already installed. Suppose to be new, and I am getting second hand product. I want new if it says NEW!

This is marketed as primarily an audio control knob, but audio control is actually just one use case. It has so many more uses if you configure the functions in synapse. It is my doomscrolling device, and I love it. Spin right scroll down, spin left scroll up, push down once = middle click to open in new tab. I use it with my left hand so my right hand can operate the mouse aiming simultaneously without having to worry about operating scroll or click with my fingers.It's also great for scrolling through pdf files and jogging through my NVR recordings so I can see the always prompt Amazon delivery persons and judge about at what height they dropped my latest package onto my front porch. I award style points for creative tosses.No but really if you do a lot of scrolling, maybe a paralegal suffering through legal docs or a video editor jogging through your latest edit, this thing is amazing.
