Razer Thresher family updated with three new gaming headsets

, , , ,

Last month we reviewed the Razer Thresher Ultimate gaming headset for the Xbox One. As fantastic sounding as it is (it did receive a Top Pick Award after all), it does require a bit of setup and extra wires for a “wireless” experience on the Xbox One. Now that Microsoft has opened the Xbox Wireless ecosystem, Razer is updating their Razer Thresher lineup with not one, not two, but three new gaming headsets.

Razer Thresher for Xbox One

Offering the same premium build as the Razer Thresher Ultimate, the new Razer Thresher for Xbox One connects to your Xbox One in the same way as your Xbox One controllers do and feature Windows Sonic audio support.

The Razer Thresher for Xbox One is the complete dongle-free wireless audio solution. On top of delivering lag-free audio immersion, this premium headset also focuses on undisputable comfort. Lined with leatherette, the lightweight memory foam ear cushions rest perfectly against your head, giving you a natural feel that is second to none. The in-built quick control buttons and a retractable digital microphone provide you with instant access to game and voice balance as well as volume even in the heat of battle.
