Razer returns to cable in its Hammerhead V3 Chroma in-ear headphones
A little over a month ago we were surprised to learn that the well-known audio solutions manufacturer “Bose” was launching wired in-ear headphones. The massive arrival of wireless TWS headphones seemed to have displaced the cable in this type of device (the company had gone 11 years without launching new wired models).
Parece que no va a ser un caso aislado. Razer has presented its new Hammerhead V3 Chroma, gaming headphones that are also in-ear and have a cable. Of course, they do not use the minijack, but the connection port to the PC, smartphones and other devices will be USB-C. They are models that will coexist with the wireless Razer Hammerhead V3 Hyperspeed (2.4 GHz), which the company launched this year.
They have two 11 mm drivers accompanied by a small 6 mm internal tweeter, and also integrate an active noise cancellation or ANC system. They support virtual THX Surround Sound 7.1 and have IPX4 resistance.

Beyond the advantages of not having to carry them around, having a wired design eliminates any type of latency that wireless Bluetooth models may have (the difference with 2.4 GHz models is smaller). The cable also integrates a controller to manage playback where the microphone goes.
As a good Razer gaming peripheral, the Hammerhead V3 Chroma has ARGB lighting integrated into each headset, more specifically in the logo that appears on the outer end of each one.
Its price in Spain is 89.99 euros.
