Excellent Mechanical Keyboard at a Great Price Point
I purchased this to replace a worn-out Cooler Master CM Storm gaming keyboard. I am very pleased with it so far after about two months of regular use.The build quality is very good and feels sturdy. I didn’t think I would care about the programmable multicolor LED lighting, but now I don’t know how I ever lived without it!Most importantly, the keys are rock-solid and have a very satisfying CLICK with every keystroke. I am a 100wpm+ typist and I tend to hit keys hard and fast – I find this to be perhaps the most-responsive keyboard I’ve ever used in that regard, and I never feel like I had a dead input or missed keystroke. In other words, the responsiveness and “clicky-ness” feels exactly like I would expect.It reminds me, to an extent, of the IBM / Apple / Commodore mechanical keyboards I used when I was a kid (1980s), in a good way.Note: this is a USB-wired keyboard, which I prefer because of low latency and the lack of need for batteries. The cable is a nice and flexible mesh-covered type, with a perfect length.Overall, I’m satisfied and I will look to other Razer products for future PC needs.

Great Keyboard
This is a great keyboard and very durable! The keys are big. This is the 2nd one purchased to give as a gift. Spilled water on my first one and it has continued to work fine after a year.

It’s a Razer Keyboard and it just works!
Okay it has RGB, a lot of RGB and fully customizable with many aps, including of course Razer Chroma Studio. It works well with MSI Dragon Center and is compatible with many games that support Razer products, such as; Apex Legends where the keyboard goes ballistic as menus swipe rapidly, so does the colors on the keyboard. I mean these effects can be turned off but they are fun and can be a conversation starter to anyone who sees your setup for the first time. Having said that it types pretty good, not the greatest experience for obvious reasons; because well it’s very tactile and more aimed at gaming. It’s clicky but not as loud as you may think, still loud enough but satisfying, at least to me. However others may prefer a more linear switch. Razer greens are like blue switches, but far smoother, giving you just the right tactile feedback you would expect. There are some moments though where you can lose a little control and edge if your in the heat of a battle, which is common with any keyboard but with stock keycaps this is all too common. Razer does however sell better caps and if you value your symbols “lit” under F1 through F12 and under your numbers 1 through 10 (- or =) you might want to pick up that kit. It’s not a horrible experience but it can be irritating in certain scenarios. Other than that the build quality of this keyboard is top notch, well weighted with heavy quality materials that just feel good. The lighting is bright, but note Razer switches only light up on the top and there is a white background under the keys that actually spread the lighting evenly throughout the keyboard, giving it a more Tron like glow. Individual keys can be custom lit, even the Razer insignia on the bottom, which to me is really cool. There’s not much more to say other than this is a mid-range option from Razer that has a real premium feel and will probably feel even better with custom keycaps. I’m impressed with the board overall and it feels like it will hold out well over time. I would highly recommend picking it up. 4 out of 5.

Amazing
I have been using this keyboard for around 2 years, and I have no complaints. Performs extremely well when gaming, the typing experience is very good, and the RGB is so extraordinary it gives me extra fps while gaming.Keycaps are easy to remove and the keyboard is easy to clean once they are removed. It is still working very well as from day 1.I replaced the keycaps about 6 months ago for this pudding style keycaps to have more RGB visibility, as you can see some keycaps are not the generic size, so I couldn’t replace those. The keyboard is also tall so I would recommend using a wrist rest.

There is only one minor drawback
Iâve very pleased with my new Razor Blackwinow keyboard. Iâm not a gamer, but I do a great deal of typing, and the mechanical âgreen tactile and clickyâ keys are perfect for my work.The only drawback is the secondary functions on the keys. Iâm talking about the ones with two symbols (such as the numerical and punctuation keys). The secondary symbols are not back lit. They’re printed on a black key with a relatively dark gray paint. They’re hard to see in a dimly lit room. Not being a touch typist, I have to stop and look for the secondary functions. A minor inconvenience. I hope that is addressed in future versions.Other than that, itâs a sturdy keyboard with the proper heft to prevent it from sliding on the desktop. It looks and feels well made. The power cable comes out of the center back originally, but you can adjust it to come out of the back on either side, depending on your desktop configuration.For the price, itâs hard to beat. If youâre looking for the great mechanical keyboard, I couldnât recommend the Razor Blackwidow too highly.UPDATE 6/29/20: It’s been over a month and not one problem. Still clicking along perfectly. My motto is “Take the negative ratings with a grain of salt.”

Excelente Keyboard, es muy cómodo las teclas reaccionan muy rápido ya que es mecánico y utiliza Switch GreenEl RGB es muy fácil personalizar gracias al Razer Synapse en lo personal me gusto-Nota: al usar Switch Green suele ser muy ruidoso, si hay alguien cerca puede que le resulte muy molesto (o incluso a ti te puede molestar después de un rato de usarlo)-al ser un Keyboard muy grande ami me resulto molesto ya que suelo usar mi Mouse DPI bajos para mejorar la precisión en ciertos juegos y eso hacia que mi mouse chocara con elPor desgracia termine cambiándolo a los 2 meses por un “Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition Chroma V2” ya que es un teclado mas chico y Switch Yellow es mucho mas silencioso y el recorrido es menor (en juegos en competitivo el recorrido ayuda muchÃsimo)

Great keyboard for gaming and typing with solid build and switch quality. You might want to consider saving your money and buying this this over the Razer Huntsman lineup if you want a great mechanical keyboard and donât need the extra features

bought this one on prime day last Nov. the sound of this mechanic key stroke is nice.the key came of in the box when I received it, it may due to the transport. anyway I did put it back.the only issue is that the spring of the key is a bit strong. I pressed shift key a lot in game so my baby finger got hurting. then I have to switch back to the normal cynosa gaming keyboard with no issues.

Dudaba mucho que el teclado valiera tanto el precio que cuesta pero me doy cuenta que si, tomando en cuenta que esta con madre la configuración para los colores ya sea el teclado en general o solo ciertas teclas y que las teclas se iluminan dependiendo del juego y lo que estes haciendo(en ow se iluminaba de cierto color dependiendo del héroe que escogÃa y de otro color los botones que usa como habilidades, también en Apex cuando caÃa del avión hacia fuego de luces como si fuera la propulsión al caer) también es muy cómodo a la hora de teclear, dejando de lado el ruido que quizás podrÃa resultar algo incómodo este teclado fue una muy buena compra tomando en cuenta que es mecánico(que no son baratos) y que lo agarre con un descuento aprovechando el PRIMEDAY. Muy satisfecho
