It’s a return to form for Razer, but only a modest upgrade from Nvidia.

April Fools’ 2025: “Zoomer gibberish.”

Razer’s April Fools’ prank is the “Razer Skibidi” headset, which it says is “the world’s first AI-powered brainrot translator headset.” Razer even made a mock translator you can try on its website.

I’m still testing the new Razer Blade 16, and I have mixed feelings

Posting through my thoughts on a $4,500 laptop.

Razer Laptop Cooling Pad review: are you a fan?0

The $150 RGB laptop stand can keep any laptop cool, and on a few Razer Blade 16 gaming laptops, it can even improve 1080p performance.

More than $1 million in refunds are going out to people who bought Razer’s Zephyr face masks.

The covid pandemic saga of Razer’s RGB-lit Zephyr face mask is probably ending now that checks and PayPal payments are giving money back to the 6,764 buyers.

Last year, the FTC settled with Razer over its misleading statements and “N95-grade” filtering claims made without evidence or testing, leading to refunds and a $100k civil penalty.

OhSnap Mcon: the viral phone gamepad designed by a teen looked even more fun in reality.

Just before Christmas, I told you how the company behind those awesome Popsocket alternatives had rescued the coolest-looking gamepad phone attachment I’ve ever seen.

Here at CES, my colleague Chris Welch got a quick demo that answers the biggest question: can this snappy spring-loaded gadget fling your phone around without yeeting it to the ground?

My favorite thing at CES is the Razer gaming chair that heats and cools.

It’s not the most technologically advanced thing ever, no butt-kicking haptics inside. Just a comfy mesh chair that can cool me when I inevitably run hot or warm me on chilly days, with near-silent jets of conditioned air. I really hope Razer actually sells this Project Arielle.

Razer has expanded its USB-C dock to 14 ports.

Following its 11-port USB-C dock launched at CES 2024, Razer has announced a new 14-port upgrade.

It features a similar aluminum housing, but the new dock now has 100W of power delivery to a laptop, transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s, and supports two 4K displays — one at 120Hz and a second at 60. It’s available now for $229.99, but still doesn’t glow.

Razer’s driftless new Xbox controller is $200 and may actually be worth it.

🛜2.4GHz wireless
🧲Drift-free Hall effect sticks
🦞Four customizable paddles and two extra shoulder buttons (for claw grip)
🔒Hair-trigger lockouts with mouse-like clicks
⏩1,000Hz wired polling rate on PC
🌈and RGB accent lighting.

I’ve been testing it for over a week and there’s a lot to love. Stay tuned for my full review.

<em>It looks a fair bit like the old V2 model, but look ma, no wires!</em>
<em>The new rear paddles have an outward-swept arrangement, and the extra shoulder buttons help with claw grip style.</em>
<em>The included zipper case houses everything, including the swappable stick caps, though it lacks any way to charge the controller while stored.</em>
<em>It’s Razer, so of course there’s RGB, but it’s fairly subdued with just an illuminated word mark.</em>
<em>The $99.99 Wolverine V3 Pro Tournament Edition, launching later in 2024, will be wired only and pare back small features like RGB.</em>

The Razer Iskur V2 gaming chair’s “6D lumbar” isn’t just a gimmick.

I’ve poked some fun at Razer’s me-too gaming chairs since the beginning, but the new Razer Iskur V2’s lumbar support is nice!

I tend to lean left and right in my seat, and the “6D” lumbar comfortably tilted with me at CES. The other “Ds” are how lumbar can adjust in/out/up/down with big dials on left and right. Does it stay this comfy after hours of sitting? Here’s hoping!
