Razer&nbsp;Hammerhead USB-C - Razer launches Hammerhead USB-C earphones for the Razer Phone and iOS Mercury Edition

Razer Hammerhead USB-C

Just in time for the market release of its smartphone, Razer announced the immediate availability of the Hammerhead USB-C earbuds, the ultimate accessory for the Razer Phone. The new earphones are now available for purchase via Razer's online store for $79.99/€89.99.

They aren't compatible exclusively with the Razer Phone, as they can be used with just about any Android smartphone that features USB Type C port. The Razer Hammerhead earphones are made of highly durable aluminum and feature flat cables, as well as bi-flange ear tips for passive noise isolation.

The earphones come with inline remote that allows users to control the audio fidelity from 10mm dynamic drivers. Also, Razer Hammerhead includes a custom-tuned DAC converter with digital output that's supposed to produce “clean, unprocessed audio from a USB-C enabled Android phone.”

Razer Hammerhead iOS Mercury Edition

Along with the Hammerhead earbuds, the company also introduced the Razer Hammerhead iOS Mercury Edition earphones, which are meant for the iPhones. They leverage digital output of Apple Lightning connector source-direct audio without processing. The iOS Mercury Edition earbuds are slightly more expensive as they sell for $99.99/€109.99.
