Razer revamps Naga MMO mouse with mechanical switches, left-handed model

Razer updates Naga MMO mouse

If you spend hours immersed in MMO raids, you likely value anything that helps you click faster. It’s a good thing that Razer has just overhauled its Naga mouse, then. The 2014 model year now uses mechanical switches for its signature 12 side buttons, offering clearer feedback with each press. There’s also a new tilting scroll wheel, in-game customization software and a tweaked grip that should fit a wider selection of hands. That includes left hands, we’d add — Razer is shipping its promised left-handed Naga alongside the regular model. No matter your input preferences, you can buy the new RPG-friendly mouse today for $80.

Razer Naga MMO Gaming Mouse 2014 Edition Announced

Razer Naga MMO Gaming Mouse 2014 Edition AnnouncedRazer has been an established name in the world of gaming hardware for some time already, and a couple of years ago, we saw them roll out the Razer Naga MMO gaming mouse. It seems that this best-selling peripheral is about to get a shot in the arm with the announcement of the 2014 edition of this now legendary gaming mouse. There will obviously be changes introduced to the 2014 edition, where its iconic 12-button thumb grid will now be outfitted with mechanical switches that deliver increased tactility, speed and actuation assurance.

Apart from that, the ergonomic form factor has been updated with a broader shape so that one is able to enjoy the best feel and comfort, regardless of your hand size. Your fourth and fifth fingers will now be able to experience a gentler down-slope on the finger rest of the Naga itself, allowing you to have a better grip (literally speaking) on the in-game situation, while helping one reduce fatigue in an extended play period. Not only that, the tilt-click scroll wheel will be able to click in and out, as well as left and right, giving you additional buttons at your digital disposal. Expect to pick up the 2014 edition of the Razer Naga MMO gaming mouse for $79.99 a pop. Do check out the image gallery right after the jump. [Press Release]

Razer in-ear headsets set the bar higher

When it comes to gaming peripherals, you know that the name Razer itself does have its fair share of fans. After all, Razer has not really disappointed so far, where the bulk of their releases tend to fall under the mouse and keyboard categories, although there has been some pretty interesting mousepads in the past, while gaming headsets themselves have also not been left untouched by Razer. Today, we shall take a look at a couple of Razer in-ear headsets, where they have been called the Razer Hammerhead and Hammerhead Pro, although neither has any relation to the shark that shares a similar namesake.

The Razer Hammerhead in-ear headsets are said to deliver incredible durability as well as fantastic audio quality, all thanks to their 9mm neodymium drivers, which would also make them as suitable candidates for those who love listening to their favorite tunes on the go. You will be able to choose from two different models, depending on what your needs are, and they are the Razer Hammerhead and the Razer Hammerhead Pro. What separates the two? Well, the Razer Hammerhead Pro would come with an omni-directional microphone that has an in-line remote to boot for phone-call control, making it the ideal piece for convenient voice communication.

Regardless of which model you choose, they will come machined out of aircraft-grade aluminum, which in turn promises extreme durability, all without sacrificing a lightweight and comfortable form factor. There is also a matte, brushed surface finish to make sure that these in-ear monitors will sound great while looking good. Not only that, there are interchangeable ear-tips that will come in three sizes, complete with optional bi-flange attachments. In order to ensure that your ears will get the best listening experience, as the inner acoustics chambers of the Razer Hammerhead in-ear headsets boast of a sonically optimized design that will increase aural resonance. You will be able to pick up the Razer Hammerhead Pro for $69.99 from this August onwards.

Razer Blade 2013: Now This Is How You Make a Damn Windows Laptop

Everyone’s first impression of the 14-inch Razer Blade, even more than its 17-inch older brother, is Ha, they made a MacBook. But then, Oh—wait. They made a MacBook. And actually, it’s even better than that.

14-inch Razer Blade gaming laptop review: smaller, faster, lighter

14inch Razer Blade gaming laptop review smaller, faster, lighter

Most companies refresh their products on an annual basis, carefully timing development and release schedules to match consumer demand, product obsolescence and component upgrades. It’s the norm, an expected pattern that most PC, smartphone and tablet manufacturers follow. Razer, however, completely ignores this cycle, as exemplified by its Blade line of gaming laptops — already on its third generation in less than two years. This would be less impressive if the firm wasn’t a relative newcomer to the game; before it announced the Blade, Razer was known primarily for creating keyboards, gaming mice and console controllers. A fully fledged gaming PC was a jarring departure for the humble peripheral maker.

Even so, here we are: reviewing the third-generation Razer Blade gaming laptop. This, too, is a departure from what we’ve grown to expect from the company — a smaller, thinner device bereft of the previous model’s signature Switchblade interface. For some PC manufacturers, a 14-inch machine might be just another SKU in the catalog. But for Razer, it’s almost a mark of progress: not only is the Blade popular enough to necessitate successive generations, but also multiple form factors. It’s also the company’s lowest-priced laptop yet, not to mention its first to include Intel’s new fourth-generation CPU — but at $1,800 for the base model, it still isn’t cheap. Read on to see if the new Blade has enough charm to be worth its lofty price tag.
