The Razer Hammerhead V3 X earbuds have been debuted as a series of branded audio accessories that are engineered with the needs of gamers in mind to help them enjoy precision performance no matter the activity. The earbuds take gaming audio head on thanks to the HyperSpeed Case that comes with them, which will connect to the PlayStation or Xbox console over a 2.4GHz wireless connection. The headphones come in two models that each pay homage to the visual identity of the Sony and Microsoft-branded consoles.
The Razer Hammerhead V3 X earbuds are rounded out with 11mm drivers, onboard microphones, touch control, Chroma RGB lighting and an IPX4 water resistance. The headphones are rated to deliver up to 10-hours of use per charge with an additional 25-hours of power from the charging case.
