Oh wow, Razer was selling masks? Seriously? That's wild, I must've missed that completely. What's even wilder is that a bunch of people apparently decided that their best option for respiratory filters is, of all things, a gaming company. And one with a shaky QC history at that.
I think i saw the masks on display inside one of the casino lobbies in Vegas when I was there last year. It looked "fine" as an accessory unit, too tacky for most people, but i didnt think it was advertised as an N95.
