Overview
- Razer's Hammerhead V3 HyperSpeed earbuds, which went on sale Thursday, cost $129.99, with a $99 V3 X version that drops the dongle.
- The main model uses a USB-C 2.4GHz HyperSpeed transmitter for low-lag audio on PCs, PS5, Switch, Steam Deck, and phones, with quick switching to Bluetooth.
- The charging case stores the USB-C dongle and works as the receiver when plugged in, so you can play while the case recharges over USB-C.
- Razer lists Bluetooth 6.0 on the V3 HyperSpeed and Bluetooth 5.3 on the V3 X, plus THX spatial audio on PC and a rated 10 hours per charge or 40 hours with the case.
- Razer claims hybrid ANC cuts noise up to 50% more than the last model, and the buds work across most devices except Xbox unless you buy the Xbox-specific variant.
