Razer’s Seiren X USB mic is small and easy to use while streaming

Razer has refreshed its lineup of broadcasting products, and its Seiren X USB microphone is a central piece of its attempt to win over streamers on Twitch, YouTube, and Mixer. This is a small condenser microphone that sits on your desk and competes with other USB mics like Blue’s Yeti, which sells for $130.

The Seiren X is available now for $100 — although you can get it for $80 if you combine it with Razer’s new $100 Kiyo webcam. And while I think the Seiren X is a passable microphone for most rookie online content creators, it performs better and worse than the competition depending on your circumstances.
