Razer Launches Hammerhead V3 HyperSpeed Earbuds With Low-Latency Case Receiver

The charging case doubles as a 2.4 GHz receiver for low-lag audio across many gaming devices.

Overview

  • The Hammerhead V3 HyperSpeed earbuds, which went on sale Thursday, are priced at $129.99.
  • Razer’s HyperSpeed Case acts as a 2.4 GHz receiver when the dongle sits in the case and the case is plugged in, so you can listen with low latency while the case charges.
  • The buds support Razer’s 2.4 GHz wireless via USB-C and add Bluetooth 6.0 for phones and handhelds, with fast switching between the two links.
  • Razer claims hybrid active noise canceling cuts outside sound about 50% more than the last model, battery life reaches 10 hours per charge and 40 hours with the case, and THX Spatial Audio works on PC through Synapse 4.
  • They work with PC, PS5, Steam Deck, Switch, and mobile, but not Xbox without a separate Xbox-specific version, and a $99.99 V3 X model drops ANC and steps down to Bluetooth 5.x with shorter battery life.
