The Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Pro packs a unique combination of gaming and audio credentials. Imagine a set of slightly cheaper (£200/$200) and platform-agnostic Apple AirPods Pro, but with additional gaming-focused features, and you won’t be far off the truth of the matter. They address a glaring flaw with the vast majority of wireless earphones: latency. Pop in your average set of wire-free buds, and the chances are you’ll notice a clear lag between the action occurring on screen and the resulting sound playing in your ears.
Razer addressed this shortcoming with its first set of Hammerhead True Wireless, which utilised Bluetooth Low Latency technology. But they were otherwise pretty basic, lacking proper sound isolation and active noise cancellation (ANC). The Razer Hammerhead True Wireless Pro has got the same low-latency credentials as its predecessor, but it comes with proper squishy earpieces, ANC, and sharp THX-tuned sound. The results are very impressive indeed.
Razer hasn’t tried anything fancy with the design of its earbuds, sticking with the AirPods Pro blueprint. You get small barrel-shaped earpieces with faintly oval in-ear buds, and long stalks that drop down over the side of your ears. They’re more functional than stylish, with a splash-resistant IPX4 rating.
