Both 2.4GHz wireless and Bluetooth are available
Most general wireless earphones only support Bluetooth, but the Razer Hammerhead Pro Hyperspeed also supports 2.4GHz wireless.
2.4GHz wireless has lower latency than Bluetooth, so it is recommended for gaming. However, it has the disadvantage of consuming a lot of battery, so you need to be careful when using it for long periods of time.
Naturally, you can also connect via Bluetooth, so when listening to music or other activities where delays in audio are not an issue, we recommend using Bluetooth, which consumes less battery.
Please note that these are wireless earphones and cannot be connected via a cable.
The dongle can be used with either USB-C or USB-A.
The 2.4GHz wireless dongle is designed to connect via a USB-C connector, but a USB-C to USB-A adapter is also included in the accessories.
It can be used with devices that do not have a USB-C port, and if your device has a USB-C port but is not available, you can use the USB-A port instead to connect wirelessly via 2.4GHz.
If you tap the function button on the Razer Hammerhead Pro Hyperspeed device three times, it will switch from Bluetooth to 2.4GHz wireless, so try this if you are unable to connect.
Can be used on various devices such as PCs, smartphones, PlayStation, and Switch
It supports both 2.4GHz and Bluetooth, allowing you to connect to a variety of devices.
It can be connected to a PC, smartphone, PlayStation, Switch, etc. It's great for connecting to a smartphone or Switch to use on the go, and it's also convenient for connecting to a PC or PlayStation to use at home.
However, some devices may only have one connection method available: 2.4GHz wireless or Bluetooth.
If your Bluetooth has a high latency, you can use gaming mode.
The disadvantage of Bluetooth connection is the large latency, but there is a gaming mode that reduces this drawback.
This is a function that cannot be used with 2.4GHz wireless, which has low latency, but it may be useful for those who mainly use Bluetooth connections.
Although it is not as slow as 2.4GHz wireless, it has less latency than a regular Bluetooth connection. I think this is a useful feature when connecting to a smartphone.
Gaming mode can be enabled by tapping the button on the device three times while connected via Bluetooth, then holding the third tap for two seconds.
Can be charged both wired and wirelessly
The standard way to charge is with a USB-C cable, but it also supports wireless charging.
The case has a battery status indicator: green means it's fully charged, orange means the battery is low, and red means there's almost no battery left.
The Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed has a wireless charging coil on the back of the case, so you can simply place it on the charger to charge.
Wireless chargers have to be purchased separately, so they cost extra, but they have the advantage of not having to plug and unplug cables.
Razer also sells wireless chargers
If you don't have a wireless charger and don't know which one to buy,Razer Charging PadHow about buying one?
If it is a Razer product, you can be sure it will charge, and I think it is more reliable than products from unknown manufacturers.
It can be purchased for around 8,000 yen and will allow you to charge not only the Razer Hammerhead Pro HyperSpeed, but also devices that support wireless charging, such as smartphones.

It can last up to 6.5 hours on a full charge
When fully charged, it can be used for up to 6.5 hours. This is written in the product specifications, but it may be shorter than this depending on the connection method, whether noise canceling is on or off, whether lighting is on or off, etc.
That's probably plenty long enough if you're out and about, but it may not be ideal for long periods of gaming at home.
The case can fully charge the device 3.7 times.
You can charge the device by placing it back in the case, so you can charge it even when you're out and about.
The case has enough battery power to fully charge the device 3.7 times, so even if you use it on the go, you can probably keep using it for a few days without needing to charge it.
When combined with charging via the case, you can get up to 30 hours of use.
Equipped with a noise canceling function that is convenient for commuting to work or school
It is equipped with a function called Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), which is convenient for commuting to work or school.
This function reduces ambient noise, such as wind noise when wearing earphones, people talking, and noise when a train is running. It cannot completely eliminate loud noises, but it can significantly reduce the sound of people talking, making it very convenient to use when you are out and about.
However, it becomes difficult to hear sounds such as cars driving by and footsteps, so you must be very careful to avoid accidents.
You can turn noise canceling on and off by pressing and holding the button on the device for more than 2 seconds. It's not that difficult to do once you get the hang of it.
You can also answer calls using the buttons on the device.
The function buttons on the main unit can be used to turn various modes on/off, adjust the volume, skip tracks, and more.
The method is as shown in the table below. Unfortunately, it will take some time to remember all the operations because you need to press and hold the buttons.
How to touch the buttons | operation |
Tap | Play/pause music, answer/end phone calls |
Press and hold for 2 seconds | Switching ANC on/off |
Press and hold for 4 seconds | Activating pairing mode |
Tap twice | Skip songs |
Second tap and hold | Decrease volume (left), increase volume (right) |
Tap three times | Switching between Bluetooth and 2.4GHz Wireless |
Third tap and hold | Gaming mode on/off |
Like other earphones, it comes with three sizes of ear tips.
The ear tips come in three sizes, S, M, and L, so you can choose the one that fits your ears best.
It's not uncommon for ear tips to come in multiple sizes, but on the other hand, if there aren't multiple sizes available, there's a higher chance that the earphones won't fit your ears, which increases the risk when you buy them.
When buying earphones, make sure to check whether the ear tips are replaceable.
The official price is about 30,000 yen
The price on the Razer official website is about 30,000 yen, which I think is a little on the expensive side for wireless earphones.
What people think about this price is up to each individual, but be sure to check the features and how to use it carefully and consider whether it is worth the price before purchasing.
If you want the latest wireless earphones and have the budget, I don't think you'll regret buying these.
