Razer is winning its freshly 'lifestyle' stigmatization very gravely, it seems. Forward off the indorse of its Project Chromatic present mask, the company has announced its outset ever so pair of glasses: Razer Anzu.

Obtainable in two different styles, Razer Anzu brings either bluish light protection for inside or UVA/UVB shelter for outdoors in a pair of surprisingly tame glasses for a company notable for adding RGB to everything. But wait, there's many. That would be the aboard speakers with relate controls—built right into the specs themselves.

The open-auricle audio frequency design is powered by an position microphone and 16mm drivers built right into the frame, which Razer says are "nearly imperceivable" on the otherwise rather standard face fare. If they're anything like the open-ear speakers on the Valve Index then we'd be very into this idea. If they're not, intimately, we're just loss to have to uncovering out aren't we?

Broad benchmarking is clearly required.

This audio function is controlled via touch controls on the outer frame of the glasses, which offers play, pause, hop-skip, and spark smartphone assistant functionality. That's all attached to your device via Bluetooth.

At that place's also an "Trigger play style" choice, which is either some gaming specific EQ (likewise controllable via an Android and iOS app), operating theatre a fashion that renders the world in The Matrix-expressive style code before of your selfsame eyeballs.

Razer say it should next-to-last equal to five hours with the internal battery, after which you'll postulate to charge it awake with the included USB cable.

The lenses are interchangeable for either interior or outdoor use, and the Anzu is also splashproof, finished to IPX4. You won't want to get them soaked in the rain, however.

Note: no RGB ignition this time. Razer figured out a way to get LEDs onto a face mask but these smart glasses? None, that's one step too far.

I couldn't agree more than, either.

The Razer Anzu Smart Glasses give notice be yours from today for $200 (£200, €210). So they don't come cheap, but sunglasses scarce of all time do.
