Not a news flash: Headphone jacks are slowly becoming a thing of the past as wireless technologies become ubiquitous. Thus, when Razer stepped into the smartphone market with its Razer Phone, the device launched with Razer Hammerhead earbuds. These were wired earbuds, but they connected via USB-C rather than a standard 3.5 mm jack. With an in-headphone digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and flat cables to prevent tangling, the original Hammerhead USB-C was a pretty solid pair of headphones. Now, Razer has upped the ante with the Hammerhead USB-C ANC (See them on Razer’s site), which offers active noise cancellation and a price tag that’s $20 higher at $99. Do Razer’s premier gaming earbuds compare to a full-blown headset? Let’s find out.
