0

Razer is one of the first gaming brands to take action against the COVID-19 pandemic. The three-headed snake branded converted some of its manufacturing lines to produce surgical masks and is giving them for free. The Philippines is one of the recipients of Razer’s surgical masks as well as Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong.

Earlier today, Razer and Min-Liang Tan’s Facebook Pages announced a pre-order of the Razer Cloth Mask. The Razer Cloth Mask is a reusable face mask certified for a 95% Bacterial Filtration Efficiency. Of course, it’s not a Razer product without that distinct three-headed snake logo on the right side of the mask. What’s surprising is there’s no chroma version.

The Razer reusable cloth mask will retail for $29.99 US(Php 1,500) with two sizes. There’s no specific date when will the Razer Cloth Mask launch but do register at their website if you want to get notified.

Lenovo Legion Gaming Phone To Arrive In July

0

The Lenovo Legion smartphone is no longer a secret thanks to several Weibo leaks showing its renders, posters, and accessories. The nail to the coffin is Qualcomm’s own announcement of phones that will use the SnapDragon 865 SoC – one of which is the Legion Gaming Phone.

Legion officially confirmed it will launch its upcoming gaming smartphone in July. The news came from a teaser poster from Legion’s Weibo handle.

A lot of details about the Legion Gaming Phone can be extracted from the leaks and Qualcomm SnapDragon 865 announcement. Since it will be using the SD 865. it’s pretty much confirmed that the Legion Gaming Phone will support 5G networks and WiFi 6 connectivity. Previous teasers showed its insane 90-watt charging support.

Alongside the Weibo teaser is another render of the phone in landscape orientation. The cameras are placed slightly off-center with the Legion logo in the same orientation. A USB Type-C port can also be seen on the side of the phone meaning it is the closest competitor to the ROG Phone series.

The announcement of the phone does not mean that stocks will arrive days or weeks later after the announcement. Considering the COVID-19 pandemic, stocks of the Legion Gaming Phone will likely arrive in the Philippines by Q4 2020, hopefully before the holiday season.
