Razer launched two new products today for streamers:\u00a0the Razer Seiren X<\/a>\u00a0portable microphone and\u00a0the Razer Kiyo<\/a>\u00a0webcam with a selfie light. These two products are Razer’s latest attempt to become the popular choice for microphones and webcams, which people normally don’t go to it for.<\/p>\n

The Razer Kiyo webcam comes with an adjustable ring light with twelve white LEDs, which you can control to twelve levels of brightness. It has a four-megapixel camera that can record up to 1080p at 30 fps or 720p at 60 fps, and it\u2019s compatible with popular streaming tools XSplit and Open Broadcaster Software. The Kiyo comes with a 1.5 meter braided cable terminating in a USB 2.0 connection. It\u2019ll sell for $99.99.<\/p>\n

The webcam looks good in theory, but it faces an uphill battle for adoption, as most popular streamers don\u2019t seem to have any major lighting problems and therefore, might not need a selfie light. A lot of Razer\u2019s older streaming equipment, like its original Razer Seiren Elite microphone, don\u2019t have the best reputation for quality either. Many gamers prefer\u00a0the Blue Yeti<\/a>\u00a0for a microphone but still get Razer mice and mechanical keyboards.<\/p>\n

Razer\u2019s newest attempt at breaking into the microphone market for streamers is the Razer Seiren X, a USB microphone that\u2019s mechanically fastened to dampen vibrations. It has a removable desk stand and zero latency monitoring to remove audio lag. The Seiren costs $99.99.<\/p>\n

In developing the two products, Razer says that it sought top streamers from Twitch and YouTube for input and to test out early prototypes. Both are designed for portability so streamers can travel and game. The two products are available for purchase on\u00a0Razerzone.com<\/a>\u00a0and in stores worldwide by the end of the year.<\/p>\n
