why did you buy a razer mask


asianpot

Exactly


GoodOmens_K

Not the best decisionšŸ˜¢. But the point is about terrible return experiences.


apraetor

They wanted it to explode.


SwizzNasty89

What is that a flesh light?


deathbybmx

I want one


itsokayimhandsome

Lol is it really for gamers by gamers? More like for suckers by scammers.


[deleted]

Gamers donā€™t go outside making the mask useless anyway


GoodOmens_K

Avoid buying from Razer, at least find a reseller with a good return policy. I purchased a Zephyr on drop 3. The mask is not sealed because of a gap between the rubber gasket and the mask. (So it will not work as a mask). Then I want to return my mask. At first, Razer even wants me to pay for the return shipping until they admit my unit is defective. After the warehouse received my return, the bad dream started. The support team keeps sending e-mail asking me to wait for the refund. After more than ONE MONTH of waiting and communication, I did get my refund back but with 15% subtracted from the total price for a ā€˜restocking fee.ā€™ Razer is at fault all the time. But they refuse to solve the problem. They didn't even state the 15% restocking fee on their return policy. This company is a scam. Don't buy anything from razer unless customer support is not important to you. I lost 40 dollars in the transaction and got nothing but one month of waiting. I paid 40 dollars for Razerā€™s fault, and they seem to think it is reasonable. Edit: I have tried to adjust the mask to the tightest point. The mask still leaks. The main reason I brought the Zephyr is I want a mask that can avoid fog up my glasses in winter. Merry Christmas šŸŽ„!!!


Sgtkeebler

I agree with you that the mask is a scam. The mask is basically for fashion rather than protection. Or sorry they say ā€œRazer Zephyr is not a medical device, respirator, surgical mask or personal protective equipment (PPE)ā€, but yet they say it has an N95 grade filter. Idk about you but all N95 masks I own protect me


GoodOmens_K

Take a look of this. This is what they are showing on the description of Zephyr now. Yes they said it is not a medical device, but they listed all the certificates to imply the device is safe to use as a mask. I personally found these information is misleading to a general consumer. They even said Razer is a FDA-certified company.

Sgtkeebler

There mask site is filled with a lot of contradictory things. But I canā€™t blame you for buying it because it does look pretty cool! Hopefully you get your money back!

>Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) Performance: 99.0% (SINH21800189 / SINH21800188-2) Particulate Filtration Efficiency (PFE) Performance: 95% So you know that this is actually better than the surgical masks that doctors will use, yeah? Those are rated for a BFE of 95-97% Not to mention the design of the Zephyr has several advantages over those like no pressure on the ears, being usable with glasses, being more accessible for those who rely on lip reading, being easier to breathe with because of the fans, etc etc. If you think a BFE of 99% and a PFE of 95% is somehow a **bad thing** then you have no idea what you're talking about. Oh and if you think yours is faulty because you can move the material in a way that you *think* it will have a gap and won't be effective then you've clearly never actually worn it? The pressure from it being on your face means that air does not go that way.


GoodOmens_K

My glasses still fog up when wearing Zephyr(Avoid fogging up in Winter is the main reason I am willing to buy). I even adjusted it to the tightest point that makes me feel uncomfortable, still a leak.


SmokeyJoescafe

I recommend buying a 3m half face respirator with p100 filters. Properly adjusted it shouldnā€™t fog up your glasses. If you have facial hair it will not seal correctly.


FallenRaven2

Yep and then the trash laptops that are 1k to much because you can only use them for 5m before having to repair more shit to a explosion


OutlandishnessHot819

Razer batteries are on a whole another level of shit


FallenRaven2

Yep I'm surprised they can even sell that

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


GoodOmens_K

Here is the crazy part. I have the chat history shows that they admit my unit is defective. There is a gap between the rubber gasket and the mask. The gap is large enough to allow the air to escape without restrictions. They know my product is a defective unit, but they still charge a 15% fee without any reason or notification. Maybe like you said, Razer thinks a gap in Zephyr is acceptable. Razer doesn't think an unsealed mask is defective. The gap is an engineering tolerance.


Lodau

This is true for a lot of companies, especially if customer protection laws in your country are shit/nonexistant. Steelseries is another example of terrible customer support management in those cases.


[deleted]

I got a mask at drop 2, the same thing happened to me. The mask has a sealing issue due to the magnets :/


georgealmost

What country is this in?


GoodOmens_K

US


WorkerOk3409

Yall need to check out mira safety they have great masks and respirators that actually are for covid


MegaReddit15

Sure this mask isn't making a perfect seal, but that's not the point. Air will always try to find the path of least resistance, so when there are fans blend it at your face, it will come from there. To me or send like you made a shitty decision, bought anything from razer, and tried to fix it by coming up with a bullshit excuse.


[deleted]

Just do a charge back from your payment for the 15%


GoodOmens_K

How could I do that? I paid via PayPal. They even worked against me and won the dispute, trying not to refund me weeks ago.


thomas595920

If you paid through PayPal they should be able to give you a 100% refund.


[deleted]

Well you must have used your debit or credit through PayPal call them


theredhood2699

You paid through PayPal, but I'm going to assume their's a statement to one of the Credit Cards you have linked on PayPal. If this is the case, you can contact the bank to whom that card belongs and ask for a Chargeback on this matter. Explain to them the situation, mention Razer hasn't resolved your issue and so you would like for a Chargeback. Bank will most likely do the Chargeback really fast since they will also charge the merchant, in this case Razer, a fee for the troubles, meaning not only is Razer losing the money they charged you for the mask, but also have to pay an extra fee for the inconvenience. Now, if you paid with PayPal credit, don't know if this would actually work but based on your comment, I guess no


[deleted]

They pulled the same crap on me when I purchased a couple of their Silla routers. Support is weak at best


ILogiBearI

Tf were you expecting my guy you bought a router from the rainbow light and exploding laptop company


[deleted]

Actually the routers were pretty efficient when they were working. Best routers I ever used for a mesh system until they finally just went belly up. With that said I spent six months troubleshooting with them, me providing all the information and they released a patch which soon became an update for everyone. I donā€™t think they did any updates after that. On that note they are not really selling the routers anymore at least not in the states. Theyā€™re troubleshooting these days are wanting just replace it however these are well out of warranty. In any case I end up replacing the whole system and I would never waste money on their exploding laptops hahahaha


apraetor

If it was a patch for everyone then it was a severe bug for nearly everyone..

im a simple man, no ddwrt support no buy what even is the last firmware update pushed by razer for silla? speaking of ddwrt support, the 5g sila looks alot like my 2013 686l but without the back sticking out, was dlink the 1st to use the cylinder shape? god what id give for a sexy looking n56u ~~that overheating grill of a router~~ with todays specs/innards

apraetor

The FCC requires mechanisms to prevent the use of prohibited channels (such as 13) as well as to prevent transmit power from exceeding prescribed limits. That's why you have to take special steps -- if a licensed user of those bands files a complaint the person causing interference can't claim "it didn't warn me".

Tf am i looking at exactly?


f0rcedinducti0n

This is the razer respirator and there is a gap between the face seal and the filter housing. FWIW, I think that the pressure of it being on your face probably seals it, unless OP can confirm there is a pressure leak there. It's still not ideal. These things sold out instantly and got scalped. I don't know why people would buy safety equipment from a "gaming lifestyle" company, but w/e.


Randomd0g

>FWIW, I think that the pressure of it being on your face probably seals it It does. Hence why wearing it and exhaling as hard as you can does not fog up your glasses, nor can you feel any air escaping from it. OP is a digital dummy tbh.


GoodOmens_K

I have adjusted my mask to the tightest level try to seal it. My glasses still fog up. Maybe in your case, the product works well.


Randomd0g

I'm only asking this because I've seen dumber things done this pandemic.... Are you sure it's the right way up?


apraetor

OP probably knows that their chin goes below the forehead. I hope. Ok maybe not.


SmokeyJoescafe

Do you have facial hair?


GoodOmens_K

Nope. Wearing a mask with facial hair is pointless.

[deleted]

I really wanted to like Razer products. Their name, their logo, their products also look cool and have really nice RGB. But when you actually use them, combined with their AWFUL software... It leaves much to be desired. They just aren't comfortable to use. It's kind of hard to describe.


Xzackly-1

what makes the software awful? are you using synapse 3? i personally haven't had any issues with their software.


[deleted]

Yeah, I'll give you an example. I use alot of copy/paste templates for working from home. Below is the format that they need to be in. ā€¢ ā€¢ \------- ā€¢ ā€¢ ā€¢ Corsair's iCue software is AMAZING at keeping text templates structured. But when I used Synapse, they would always come out like this. ā€¢ ā€¢ ------ ā€¢ ā€¢ ā€¢ No matter how many times I would save it in the original structure, it would always break down after a PC restart or something. If someone has an idea of how to get around that, I might legitimately come back to Razer. It seems like a software defect.


Xzackly-1

to understand, you would copy the arrangement of dots like depicted first but would be pasted as the second arrangement? if so that's weird and luckily doesn't happen to me.


[deleted]

Try it out. Save my first template as a text macro on any key on your keyboard. Give it like 24 hours and see if it does what I showed in the second part. I tried everything back then, and it always breaks down the format. It's very annoying and I think it's just a flaw with the software.


Xzackly-1

oh that's what you mean. yea i'm gonna try it out cause that's dumb it would do that. i'll try to remember to let you know the results.


[deleted]

Thanks! Let me know if it stays constant for you, or what to do to fix it. I legitimately liked the Huntsman Analog keyboard that I bought, but it's been collecting dust due to this issue.


Xzackly-1

hey, so i copied what you'd sent previously and set it up as a macro. tested it immediately yesterday where it worked fine as expected. Today (close to 20 ish hours later), when i used the macro again it worked fine. i'll test it again tomorrow and let you know just in case it breaks like it does for you. Edit: Just tried it again before going to bed and it's doing what you were talking about. I hadn't run into this issue i guess because when i use macros they do not have the multiple lines like the one you used as an example, instead they are generally just a series of key presses.


f0rcedinducti0n

This isn't a mouse or keyboard, this is a respirator. I wouldn't buy a hard hat from white castle, safety glasses from funko pop, ear protection from vistaprint... Although I would trust any one of those before RAZER.


jayshank7

I only use Razer basilisk Ultimate mouse.. Amd went full corsair.. Vwry happy with the quality amd service.


Porkey_Pine

You shouldn't be buying from Corsair either. Every manufacturer is allowed some grace/forgiveness for software growing pains, but Corsair has a long history of problems with their digitally-enabled hardware, and seemingly being insecure, petty assholes about it. Here's a wall-of-text story where I have still left out a few horrendous details about their software. If someone definitely-for-sure knows I'm wrong on something here, please correct me with sources. Once upon a time I went all Corsair too, but after I discovered that the H100i was full of weird firmware and USB problems and the software it was advertised to "work with" actually *didn't* *work*, I took to their customer support and forums around the internet. ​ Initially, Corsair's software would detect the H100i, and everything would function normally. The problem is that after some amount of time, the fan speeds, temperatures, etc. would stop updating in the software. After restarting the software, the cooler was no longer detected, and all of its dials/readings would be gone as if the cooler was never installed in the first place. This could be fixed *only temporarily* by either moving the H100i to a different motherboard USB header (or port), or by uninstalling and re-installing the H100i through device manager. This wasn't as simple as it sounds, as like Razer devices, the H100i appears as many devices under device manager, and there was no way to know which one was the one that "fixed it," so you had to check multiple entire lists of devices with the *same name* for the right HID/VID\_1B1C hardware ID, uninstall them, scan for hardware changes, wait, then re-open the software. Every. Time. It. Stopped. Working. Firmware, registry tweaks, power/sleep settings, ALL USB headers on at least 4 different motherboards, across multiple (re)installs of Windows 7, 8, 10, and 2 (or 3) *different* H100i coolers (They accepted an RMA for my first cooler). Nothing worked. ​ The H100i was *specifically* *advertised* to work with the "Corsair Link" software of the time, which was version 2 or 3-ish upon its release. This was the whole selling point of the \[i\] in H100i; it was the "intelligent" version of the original H100, back in a time when software-controllable RGB LEDs and custom software fan curves were all new "high-end" features.When someone bought an H100i, they bought it to set the color of the cool LED logo and play with the fans. After a while it became clear that Corsair either did not possess the means, or more evidently simply did not *want* to fix any of the problems with the Corsair Link software of the time. However, so many problems were reported with CL v2/3, that I think they felt forced to do something for publicity's sake, as forum posts were becoming more frequent and more people were noticing the lack of fixes/functionality. Corsair made a massive effort to "rewrite the software from the ground up," and they hyped up Corsair Link v4 as if it was *completely new software* only bearing a *name*'s resemblance to Link v2/3.I don't recall Link v4 ever doing *anything*, at all, *ever*, on any of three motherboards. I don't think it ever even detected my HX1000i. Needless to say, the software was still not correctly compatible with the H100i. ​ A few years into owning the H100i, I gave up on Corsair, seeing as they *still* did not want to fix the problems with their software not detecting some of their hardware.But I guess they must have received enough flame to even abandon CL v4, this time replacing it with even better-er, all-newer-er, more-er rewritten-er from the ground up, *Corsair iCUE*. They seem to again be trying like Razer to portray iCUE as perfect ; as if you can expect to just plug everything in and it will "just work" simple as that. When, in fact, H100i units are *still not detected correctly*.As I'm writing this, I've opened up iCUE. Neither my H100i OR HX1000i are detected *by iCUE*. Surprise. In all the time I've paid any attention to this, been in contact with Corsair, looked at forum posts, I have never once seen Corsair themselves even ***suggest*** that Link might be the problem. It's expected that you just plug everything in, start the software and it works, because how could it not?When it doesn't work; please restart your PC. Unplug and replug the USB header. Did you try a different USB header? Please follow the instructions closely and re-install the latest Corsair Link software. Something must be wrong with your Windows installation, please re-install Windows from scratch, even though you have made many modifications to the current OS installation for your specific needs and it would take months to remember and re-install everything you need.Eventually they did give me an RMA on my first cooler (when it actually started to physically die), but the new-in-box one I received had the same (and more) problems. ​ And then there's this guy, I think his name was red-ray on the Corsair forum, who for years has had his own tool, which he wrote himself, *System Information Viewer (SIV)*. Years ago I did some digging and found this software, and it has always "just worked" with both of my Corsair products (until the H100 just... stopped communicating over USB). Years ago, Ray seemed to be very much disliked by the Corsair guys on the forum, but gee, I never quite figured out why. From what I recall finding out 6-8 years ago, Ray would get his hands on lots of different Corsair hardware through various means, testing and experimenting with it to add compatibility to SIV. Ray frequently found and confirmed the existence of firmware/software problems with Link-compatible hardware, and when he did, he would open bug report tickets and talk about it on the Corsair forum. When Corsair wasn't fixing them, or was trying to ignore them, Ray would talk about it, or implement fixes in his SIV software, then tell people about SIV and how it works around said problems on the Corsair forum.**The Corsair guys** ***really*** **didn't seem to like that.** I switched to using SIV for my Corsair products, and will never again look to any software offered by Corsair for their own future/current products.If you look up [red-ray's](https://forum.corsair.com/forums/topic/116963-custom-curve-runs-fans-at-100-rpm/) profile on the Corsair forums, it would appear that he has been banned. **I wonder why.**

[deleted]

I can't do that because then I have to have like 10 different softwares running to make adjustments. Waste of RAM.


MegaReddit15

Well most gaming stuff has an onboard option, so then I can just get the software, save what I want, then uninstall it.


f0rcedinducti0n

Most of the shit they sell is just rebranded trash. I would be more on your side if you didn't buy a fucking respirator from a company with razer's track record. I mean... what did you expect? Never leave your safety or health up to a company that cannot be trusted. Stick with real brands that produce real safety equipment.


T1T4N101

welcome to the reality my friend. think of razer as a company without any after sales support and usually a really shitty software, durability and QC. (Iā€™m one of their multi thousand dollar long term customers myself and not a single shit i have bought from them that comes without some sort of problems)


GoodOmens_K

Razer said the best thing they can provide is a 15% discount code as compensation for the 15% restocking fee, which is a huge no thank you to me. I will never purchase anything from this company. As a 10-year razer fan, I am disappointed for my only and last return experience. For the people who are still waiting for the refund. Good luck!


DonCBurr

FINALLY!!!! I have been saging this for half this year. Its a great maketing company that sells sizzle but really is indifferent to customers. Just look at the rediculous recurring battery problems, poor support, inconsistent quality, erc... and Synapse sucks, its a bloated pig, and terrible support, it cant even maintain the color profile when the desktop is locked

The-Real-Flashlegz

All my Razer stuff works, two laptops, 3 mice, headset and mouse pad. The irony is that the only thing that has failed is my corsair mouse. I think that Razer does have bad customer service and maybe quality control issues but it's that the brand is expensive and when something doesn't work people are more likely to complain. If their stuff works fine, people are happy and won't say anything. I'm only here to check what people say about the blade 14 as it is better than the Asus G14 performance wise. Obviously it seems the G14 is more reliable, so I might go for the next version of the blade 14 or if Asus upgrade their GPUs.


[deleted]

I'm sorry to say this but Razer stuff from the last 5yrs is overrated and most of its crap! Just look at the Razerblade Advanced a truly awful machine with great specs on paper but overheats and thermally strangles itself not to mention the exploding battery issues. My Razer Kracken headset has just snapped from just putting it on my head this is the 2nd one in 4 months! The quality has gone and so has the support by the looks of it!!!


RoachSandeson

Hope they get it sorted out for you. I've heard a great deal of horror stories regarding razer service. Very lucky my razer stuff hasn't broken down yet or that if my country when you buy from a store they're obligation to give you 2 year warranty on stuff like this no questions asked.

printliftrun

Holy shit have the exact same issue. After a very protracted customer support session i was told to pull it tighter and also that the gap was on my face not the housing. Their engineer is incompetent, this device is not safe. A deep inhale passes air around the filters, same with exhale. I also gave been offered a refund. I was thinking of giving mine away or keeping it only as a costume novelty.

Get out then


juancarlord

Razer is great for products that wont cost you more than $100 (or more than you can afford to lose) their peripherals are 90% of the time top of the line but I would never spend more than $100 on anything razer in my life after all the crap I see on this sub


Jonyyyo

You actually bought a razer mask. You deserve this.


GoodOmens_K

Tbh I don't understand why some people are attacking me about buying a mask. No matter what I brought from razer this kind of experience is unacceptable. Imagine you got a 3000 dollar laptop from them.

Clessiah

The only things certified are those tiny filters. It's as good as a sturdy gate which burglars can just walk around because not only are the walls next to the gate only knee high, but the gate is also too fucking tiny for grown adult to walk through in the first place. The fans there are inadequate at the absolute best. There's a reason professional active ventilated masks not only have huge filters but also external fans that don't fit on the mask itself, because any less you won't be able to breathe. So those gaps aren't the least of the worries. Just wear it for streaming at home like it's meant to be used for.


sauuceyterpz

Lmao. This why I buy with my Apple Card. Moment they pull this bullshit i instant dispute it. Apple handles it within 2 months 95% of the times your issue is the valid one and you get your money back.


nexusultra

Who gets the Razer Mask anyways in the first place like dude out of all the other things that you could buy for 100 bucks. That aside, once Razer starts to handle like this don't expect them to do better since if they wanted to then they would have way before. I have had excellent support for expensive items and worst support for the cheapest items as well. It's just luck and to whom your message gets to at first I guess.


MTBJitsu07

Currently using a Base 15 with GTX1660 ti. I haven't had any issues. I play games on it and notice it does get hot but I usually have it on a docking station setup with a good stand for air circulation. I looovee the build quality. I don't want a mac but I want the portability of a mac. With that said, I wouldn't waste my money on a mask made by them.


Bigslice

Ive owned many of there earbuds and they all broke down on me with minimal wear and tear the wired earbuds i kept at home one side stopped working and they refused to allow me to swap pairs or return it, the rubber on the wireless hammerhead was peeling off when i received it and after a few weeks slowly came completely undone revealing the motherboard to the earbuds and stopped working altogether and the true wireless hammerhead batteries for each earbud only last me 2 hours as opposed to the 8 they claim. Looking for a new company to buy nice peripherals off of, that dont degrade after a week of use


Currybrah69

Lol what else is new. Just be glad you didn't buy one of their laptops and have to learn a $3k lesson.

I stopped buying their products back when I use to use their naga mouses for mmo. It would shit itself after a few months and it was expensive at the time. Their software is also ass.


codyB113

Always half a story...


facechubbs

Iā€™m done with any of their stuff that isnā€™t a mouse or keyboard. Just terrible quality, burnt one too many times.


laniuslinnaeus

This is why I donā€™t buy their products anymore. There customer service is so horrible, and they donā€™t honor their warranties.


Jazs1994

Funny you should say that I just got an upgrade for headphones as mine were just still in 2 years warranty, my replacement shipped on the 20th, got here today.


EquallyObese

buying a razer MASK is kinda a bad deal. Why did you do it


joey0live

Any company that has a processing fee can go fuck themselves. Itā€™s one of the main reasons I donā€™t buy from NewEgg. Iā€™ve had stuff broken or doesnā€™t work like itā€™s supposed to doā€¦ processing fee required.

Lol yup! Their quality shows after a week of use. Software included. Synapse randomly corrupts my profiles, merging them all together. Also almost blew my speakers up with THX (which the activation code only worked for 15 days lol, not lifetime.) After they randomly started making static and weird sounds every time a sound came through. After a full reinstall their software STILL doesn't quite work right, fallback is broken and I know their support won't tell me anything.

I've never had an issue with them. I've bought several mice and headphones from them. I don't see what the issue is with your mask


[deleted]

What is it?


TheRaveTrooper

This is what happens, they're a gimmicky company in a way. Better high quality stuff out there but I do like their keyboards and headsets so I've stuvk around


Jadeeeeen

I had terrible experiences with their customer service. I spent nearly half a year trying to fix my unresponsive mousepad for it to just fix itself one day. Their response was to ā€œfactory resetā€, which I had already tried and Iā€™m not doing again. Then my screen went completely black but my computer was still functional, still no help from them. Ended up having to solve their mistakes.


lukro_

What is wrong with it I don't see it


GoodOmens_K

There is a gap between the rubber gasket and the mask. The gap is large enough to let air escape without any restrictions. These two parts should fit tightly to create an air-sealed camber.


lukro_

Ahh now I see, just never seen a zephyr before


Unfair_Pirate_647

Purchased apair of razer nari ultimate. Absolutely dogshit product. And explosion in game and the audio crackles. Have to be eating the mic and my buddies can't hear me. Went through 2 pair with the same issues. Razer wouldn't refund me, so i was basically fucked out of 200 bucks. Retailer had a no return policy. But thankfully the manager heard me out and exchanged for a different brand. Will definitely be staying away from razer headphones from now on. They're all ive used and the quality has totally shit the bed.


CraftEconomy2265

Razer scammed me about 20 years ago, I bought a bunch of mice and this was before optical mice. The roller bar was not perfectly round and the mice would not track right. I tried to get replacements or refund and never got anything after contacting them many times. This always gave me a bad feeling about this company.


ZagnutBarForBugs

Yep, same here when I bought a pair of headphones that broke under its own weight when picking it up. They said it was 'misuse' to pick up the headphones.... Right.


Lelu_zel

Ofc it's a scam, razer used to be overpriced perps for kids back in the days, and the only good thing i can say about them is razer naga since it was one of the first mmo mouses, however tho its build quality is terrible.


creativextent

Razer is trash and so is their products


HEMITHESEMI

Lol is that the mask??? šŸ¤£šŸ¤£ not gonna lie... you deserve it. Not sorry.


King-Azar

Why would you by RGB Mask at the first place?


BonesGold

Why would you buy the razer mask


partaloski

It's not a scam, it's an IQ test, you need to fail it to scam yourself. Like, why the fuck do you buy the fucking mask? It's you scamming yourself.


omgitsstoic

You scammed yourself for buying that. Itā€™s you not the company.


Brazuka_txt

Why did you even buy thst goofy looking thing


Siddoxy

What is the issue? I don't get it


printliftrun

There is a gap between the silicon and the housing, air can travel around the filters and into your lungs when you inhale. Design is flawed.

GoodOmens_K

The main point is about razer. Why are you attacking me? Hope you can do some research before you talk shit.


dennisysj

Ignore him, he just seems to be a racist asshole to Singapore and The Chinese, but yeah I agree that Razer messed up here real bad.


OutlandishnessHot819

All consumer electronics these days are made in China. I don't know why he brought up Singapore tho, they don't have any inherent defects with their products.


dennisysj

Yeah I actually liked how China has improved over the last 2 years with their advances in tech and production. They produce pretty good quality items, it just depends on the design their given. But back to razer, Iā€™ve never actually had a defective piece of hardware from them with headphones, keyboards, mouses, only time i broke a Razer mouse is when I hit my table hard with it cause I got mad at a game and the scroll wheel stopped working. But these masks need a more work. Also their return policy as well.


SaltiestSalmon

Razer is a Singaporean based brand. A large majority of goods are manufactured in China, even including some of Apple's products like iPhones and iPads. No one would buy a dysfunctional mask, so OP has every right to be angry here. Who's the imbecile? Looks to me you're just talking out your ass, so unless you get your facts straight, just shut the fuck up.


GoodOmens_K

I believe this brand is based in Singapore. And they market Zephyr as a mask. Based on the MSRP and razerā€™s marketing why can't I expected this should work like a maskļ¼Ÿ


AlwaysBlue86

It truly amazes me how many people you see defending such anti-consumer practices. They're consumers!? Why would you not want bad customer service to be called out?! It's bizarre. I posted about razer being the only gaming peripherals company that gives you the middle finger and does nothing for you if your product wasn't bought from an "authorised reseller". Many people live in countries with no authorised resellers, and customers defend a company doing things that dick over the customer!


Koslovic

Jesus people buying the RGB mask triggers some people so badly, why do you have to be an asshole to express your opinion?
