Razer Introduces Clio: A New Way to Experience Gaming audio
Razer has transformed the way we enjoy gaming audio with its latest product, Clio. This unique headrest speaker also serves as a soft cushion, offering an alternative to traditional headphones. Designed to rest comfortably behind your head like a pillow, Clio features two foldable “wings” that gently cradle your ears. This design allows for an immersive listening experience while keeping you aware of your surroundings.
Advanced Audio Technology
Despite its simple appearance, Clio is equipped with notable audio technology. It includes two 43 mm full-range drivers that utilize THX-certified spatial audio technology. This setup promises a rich sound experience and accurate directional cues. Whether you're engaged in intense gaming or watching your favorite shows, the wings unfold to direct sound toward your ears, creating an intimate listening habitat.
For gamers who need rapid response times, Razer HyperSpeed wireless technology ensures minimal delay when connecting to PCs. Additionally, Bluetooth support makes it easy to pair with mobile devices and consoles.
Versatile Connectivity Options
The Clio speaker can also enhance multi-speaker systems by connecting it with existing front-facing speakers for use as the rear channel in a 5.1 surround-sound setup. This feature significantly boosts cinematic experiences during movies or games. The rear USB-C port allows for charging and optional wired audio connections while onboard controls let users adjust volume and switch modes easily without needing their PC or phone.
A Design Focused on Comfort
The design of Clio showcases Razer’s dedication to both comfort and style. It is covered in soft fabric that acts as a comfortable headrest cushion suitable for chairs or car seats alike. When not being used for audio playback, the wings can fold flat so that Clio can function as a regular pillow too.To add flair to its look, subtle RGB lighting around the hinges of the wings provides an attractive touch.
A Unique Offering at $230
Priced at $230 and available starting May 16th, Clio presents an exciting option for gamers and streamers seeking high-quality sound without bulky headphones pressing against their ears. As Razer continues exploring innovative peripherals—from face masks to concept chairs—Clio emerges as a standout example of combining comfort with advanced audio features.
