Wake up Chooms, a new Razer product just dropped, and it'll have you looking like you're straight out of Night City. These Razersuperfuture Matte Black Glasses are not actually a collaboration with CD Projekt Red, but that's the first thing I thought when they landed in my inbox. I only wish I was as cool as the models and could pull these off.

The Razersuperfuture Matte Black Glasses are not some cheap knock-offs from the black market though, these are a collaboration between Retrosuperfuture and Razer, two reputable names in fashion and tech.

Looking just as futuristic as the Lenovo Glasses T1, these don't have any onboard tech, but do protect your eyes from screen brightness, and that pesky daylight when you have to actually go outside. The photochromic lenses are said to adjust to any light level, filtering out both UV rays and blue light.

Cyberpunk puns aside, I actually think these glasses look pretty damn smart. As a fan of quirky eyewear I can appreciate the design choice and the thick black acetate frames. This isn't Razer's first foray into the market of eyewear either, their first being the Razer Anzu Smart Glasses, which were Bluetooth compatible and had built-in speakers.

These Razer offerings are purely an aesthetic choice though, they don't actually have any digital features, a missed opportunity perhaps for some RGB lighting? But they do make you look like an NPC who would be found sitting at the bar in the Afterlife in Night City. Sunglasses at night never looked so good.

The glasses are set to drop later today, and if you want to get your hands on these chunky matte black acetate frames it'll cost you $239 in the US and £239 in the UK.
