Razer announces a line of wireless headphones called the Nari

Razer's new line of headphones not only lets you hear the gaming sounds, but one of them even it lets you feel them. Dubbed Razer HyperSense, this haptic feedback technology adds another dimension to gaming by taking regular audio and generating the appropriate feedback such as when a plane flies by or gunfire exploding around you.

There's going to be three Nari headphones, all wireless with various features. 

The Nari Essential comes in at $99 and is your basic lag-free wireless headset with 40MM drivers along with 16 hours of battery life and a mic.

Step up to the Nari at $149 and you'll get gel cooled cushions with 50MM drivers that swivel and the ability to go wired when your battery runs low. 

Finally, the Nari Ultimate has that HyperSense technology to let you feel the game and comes in at $199.

You can compare all three Nari's here to see which one best suits your style and wallet.

The Nari is available now with the Essential and Ultimate coming really soon.

RAZER ANNOUNCES NARI WIRELESS GAMING HEADSET FAMILY, FLAGSHIP MODEL’SHYPERSENSE INTELLIGENT HAPTICS DELIVERS THE ULTIMATE IMMERSIVE GAMING AUDIO EXPERIENCE

(SAN FRANCISCO) – Razer™, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, announced the Razer Nari Ultimate wireless gaming headset with Razer HyperSense, advanced haptic technology that delivers an added dimension of touch to gaming, movie and music experiences.

Razer HyperSense was developed together with Lofelt™, a German engineering firm that specializes in creating haptic technologies for immersive, natural, lifelike experiences.

“Lofelt is committed to raising the standard for haptic feedback to match the high-quality audio and video we’re used to in today’s devices.” said Daniel Büttner, chief executive officer at Lofelt. “Teaming up with Razer is an incredible opportunity for us to demonstrate the value of the cutting-edge technology we developed. I’m thrilled we are at the forefront of realizing the true potential of advanced haptics and can’t wait for gamers to level up their gameplay with the Razer Nari Ultimate featuring Lofelt’s haptic technology.”

Razer HyperSense utilizes haptic drivers that generate multidimensional haptic feedback, enhancing positional awareness with stereo capabilities. The technology works across all formats of gaming, music and movies without specific integration by converting audio signals into tactile feedback in real time.

The Nari Ultimate was also engineered with innovative comfort technology that includes an auto-adjusting headband for a fuss-free fit, swiveling ear cups to fit every head shape, and cooling gel ear cushions that keep gamers feeling cooler for longer periods of time compared to traditional memory foam ear cups. The cooling gel ear cushions feature hidden indented eyewear channels for a more comfortable fit with eyewear, as well.

The Razer Nari Ultimate also utilizes THX Spatial Audio which was introduced with the Kraken Tournament Edition. This feature creates realistic depth and immersion by simulating 360-degree sound with pinpoint accuracy for greater awareness during gameplay. The headset has game/chat balance, and it works in both wired and wireless mode for added compatibility across PC, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch and mobile devices.

Razer Co-Founder and CEO Min-Liang Tan said: “Razer consistently creates products with innovative technology to give gamers the best gaming experience possible. With the Razer Nari Ultimate, we are championing a whole new way for gamers to feel their games through Razer HyperSense.”

The Razer Nari is available in three versions: Razer Nari Ultimate, Nari, and Nari Essential. The Razer Nari Ultimate described above delivers the most gaming audio value for gamers at $199.99. The Razer Nari at $149 omits Razer HyperSense while mirroring the Razer Nari Ultimate in comfort, sound technology and all other features. The Razer Nari Essential focuses on core wireless gaming headset features with THX Spatial Audio, comfort with an auto adjusting headband, and cooling gel ear cushions and lag-free performance at $99.99.
