Razer Launches Web-Based Synapse Beta, Offering Browser-Based Configuration

Razer has launched a new web-based beta version of its Synapse configuration utility. Traditionally, Synapse required installation on PC and Mac to configure Razer peripherals.

The new web beta allows users to access configuration options directly through a browser, eliminating the need for dedicated software to be permanently running on a machine.

This development addresses concerns some PC users have regarding the need for multiple configuration utilities and their potential impact on system stability and data privacy.

Initially, the web version of Synapse supports only Huntsman V3 keyboards, but Razer plans to expand device compatibility over time. The company positions this tool as a convenience for users temporarily connecting gear to shared PCs, as well as a lightweight option for primary computers.
