Razer Moray Plus Mobile Gaming Communicator Review

Engineers designing earbuds face a choice these days: Should they build earbuds that support a variety of devices and perform a host of functions, or should they focus exclusively on audio quality? The engineers who designed Razer’s Moray Plus Mobile Gaming Communicator decided to go for the gusto—and they almost made it. The Morays can do a lot more than pump the latest Eels album down your ear canals. They come with an iPhone-compatible, in-line, omni-directional microphone; adapters for Sony’s PSP 2000/3000 and Nintendo’s DS/DS Lite handheld gaming systems; and a split stub cable you can plug into your PC’s headphone and mic jacks. Razer also thows in a padded carrying case that you’ll actually want to hang onto: It zips shut, includes mesh pockets for each accessory, and doesn’t look like your sister’s jewelry bag. Listening to straightforward rock, acoustic, or classic music on the Morays was a pleasant enough experience. We could hear Paul McCartney stretching to hit his harmonies on “She’s Leaving Home,” from Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band; and little Greg and the late Duane Allman’s southern classic “Ain’t Wastin’ Time No More,” from Eat a Peach, reached our eardrums without protest.
