We already knew that Razer was planning to make Zephyr, an RGB face mask that was coming out sometime this year. And today, the gaming peripheral company has announced today that its wearable air purifier is now available for purchase.
As part of RazerCon 2021, the company announced that those looking to purchase Zephyr may do so now. Pricing starts at $99.99 for one Zephyr Unit, and that pricing also includes three sets of N95 grade filters, which should last you 9 days of use. Or, for $149.99, you can get the mask and 33 sets of filters, which are rated for 99 days of usage. Razer will also be selling a 10-pack of filters for the Zephyr, which retail for $29.99.
To ensure the mask does not fall off while in use, the Razer Zephyr uses a dual strap design with an adjustable strap placed on the head and the neck. The mask also includes Razer Chroma RGB lighting with over 15 million lightning options you can customize with the Zephyr.
Initially shown off at CES 2021 as a concept, Razer would announce that it was actually making the mask, then known as Project Hazel, a few months later. In August, Razer announced the product's official name and opened up applications for those interested in beta testing the face mask ahead of a retail release.
Zephyr is a "surgical N95 respirator" with a high fluid resistance, meaning it can protect you from droplets and splashes. Zephyr also includes a clear and transparent design, meaning wearers can speak clearly easily and display visible visual cues while socializing. Razer says the face mask uses Voiceamp technology to ensure your speech isn't muffled via its built-in mic and amplifier combo.
