Razer announces Pro version of RGB mouth cap with voice amplification

Razer will show a Pro version of its Zephyr face mask during CES. This version again has RGB LEDs and built-in filters, but also gets voice amplification. Razer lists a suggested retail price of $150, which is $50 more than the regular Zephyr.

Razer reports that the Zephyr Pro differs from the regular Zephyr with voice amplification. Two speaker grilles can be found on the bottom of the mouth cap. The Zephyr Pro also has a button with which voice amplification can be switched on and off. Razer reports to The Verge that it amplifies a user’s voice to 60dB at a distance of one meter.

Outside of that, the Pro variant is broadly the same as the regular Zephyr. The mouth cap again has two built-in filters that last up to three days and must be able to filter 95 percent of the particles from the air. The Zephyr Pro also gets active ventilation and an automatic sterilization function via UV light. The weight of the Pro version is also the same, as is the battery capacity. Razer told The Verge that the company has made the grilles for the speakers lighter to achieve this.

The Zephyr Pro will be available alongside the current Zephyr. That mask was shown during CES in 2021 and was then known as a Project Hazel concept product. In August, the company started beta testing for its first mask and it became officially available in the fourth quarter for $100. In Europe, the Zephyr is for sale for 110 euros; a euro price for the Pro version is not yet known.
