The Razer Opus are the gaming brand’s new Over-Ear Wireless Headphones with Active Noise Cancelling

Razer is a brand that’s best known for its gaming-focused computer hardware, but they’ve been steadily branching out into selling other kinds of consumer technology that appeal to gamers, including audio accessories. They’re certainly no stranger to audio accessories, having already launched the Hammerhead True Wireless Earbuds, wired Kraken Gaming Headset, and wireless Adaro headphones. Now, the company is launching a new audio accessory: the Razer Opus. The Opus is Razer’s first lifestyle headphones, meaning they’re aimed at general consumers rather than just gamers. They’re a pair of over-ear Bluetooth wireless headphones with Active Noise Cancelling, THX Certification, and long-lasting battery life.

Razer Opus Design

While the Razer Opus carries the Razer and THX text logos on the outside, the overall design is rather muted. Razer’s triple-headed snake logo is nowhere to be found, and overall, the headphones look like any other set of over-ear wireless headphones. The headphones are circumaural, meaning the cups are large enough to cover your entire ear. This is to provide a seal between your ears and outside noise as much as possible—in other words, passive noise cancellation. The headphones also have 4 microphones dedicated to active noise cancellation.

Razer says the Opus is designed for comfort in two ways. The headband has plush leatherette padding and the cups have memory foam padding that, together, clamp over your head and ears with a snug clamping force. Furthermore, the headphones overall weigh only 265g.
