      Its down to $197 in 2024 and I just bought one recently. It was a pleasant surprise that Razer decided to go full ungerglow RGB for its wrist-rest on the latest Blackwidow series while oddly it left out this feature in its latest Huntsman V3 series.

    I have been using the Razer BlackWidow of the first version since 2015, a year ago the buttons began to deteriorate (stucked or didnt click because of overvoltage), as far as I understand, due to dirt inside the switch for so many years of use, I bought myself an ordinary membrane just a couple of days ago.
    And then the news about the V4, just the design with additional buttons just blew my mind. I haven't been able to come up with anything like that. Already ordered one, waiting for delivery.

    Never been much of a Razor fan. I like SteelSeries more, but that's just my preference.
    Right now, I'm using the Alienware AW768 mechanical RGB keyboard and the Alienware AW959 RGB mouse. Got both for a super bargain, and so they are my main perfs right now. Combined with my Alienware Area 51 R2 (Triad) computer system, I've gone all-in with Alienware. Really stinkin diggin the Alienware setup right now.
    That keyboard looks and sounds fantastic, though. But at over $230, it's kinda hard to justify the price for what you get. Being full size is a big thing for me, since I prefer full sized keyboards over all others, and that's one BIG keyboard!

New, they can be expensive, but the way I was able to get my hands on these peripherals was much more affordable. I'm not going to say how much I spent on all three pieces (system, keyboard and mouse), but it's safe to say it was far less expensive than what one would normally pay! As far as build quality goes, Alienware is top notch! No issues there. But, Alienware is definitely NOT for everyone! As the ole saying goes, "To Each His Own!" That very much applies in the PC world!

    Would you say this keyboard is better than the Huntsman V2 Analog? I just bought one and was wondering if I should return for the V4. I got the analog for $80 off but I am okay with paying the difference.

    • @artyboy1377
      @artyboy1377 6 місяців тому

      I have this but also have a Huntsman V2 Analog on order after seeing the price dropped to $137. Both are very similar especially full underglow RGB for both the keyboard and the wrist-rest but the key difference is the analog switches on the V2 Analog. It may seem gimmicky and needs game support but when it does having the option of using the same key for walk/run or switch grenade/throw grenade does seem pretty neat. I love collecting keyboards and mice as they offer different user experiences since they are input/interface devices we use on a daily basis.

  • @OneTrueLove
    @OneTrueLove Рік тому +1

    honestly my opinion to this keyboard is okay... i used to become fan of full size keyboard and i still am to use the numb pads but i have to sacrifice the num pads because of the small desk that i have even if i move the keyboard on the side and tilt it a little bit i still hit my keyboard when i swing my mouse... i like the keyboard ngl but custom keyboard or sound of the keyboard are been there for couple of years or more... i just wish razer makes a good sound of the spacebar back space enter and shift key... and the fact that they release the optical switch and razer is known for gaming and specifically this keyboard is meant for mainly for gaming cause we started a blackwidow its better if they put the optical switch. and for the price of 230 dollars its a good deal because its going into a hypezone or like its new. its the same thing what happened to razer hunstman elite that cost like 300+ dollars and now its 150.

Double Shot is pretty legit these days and this tech is really old at this point, most and I say most, not all companies have had their QC dialed in at this point.

    Does the key spam issue never ever bug you in your several hours you put into the razer keyboards you test, techne? My deathstalker v2 pro is driving me crazy and I searched online and it seems it is an issue with synapse and so many people have the same problem. Kinda disappointing with the amount they charge for their keyboards they won't fix this

      @RayCrush2008 I got it on my DSV2 Pro but could live with it for a while because I wasn't playing competitive fps games and it's a pretty good multi functional keyboard. Then some keys broke (the middle row of keys stopped working like t h and v). They gave me a replacement set and still the replacement set had same issue that's when I tried to Google this issue and found its a prevalent one

      @jilson743 I guess you are one of "lucky" ones to only have it occur 2x in 4 months lol. In all seriousness though its sad to be content with your level of instability (even 1x per 2 month and fix is to reboot system) after shelling out North of $200 for a keyboard.
      For me it's almost every other day or at least once a day. Sometimes it's embarrassing at work when I am screensharing and then the keyboard goes mad and long presses the key when I'm done striking a key.

    -Keycaps that will develop shine as they are cheap ABS not PBT
    -Extremely ugly design
    -Overly large
    -outdated mechanical switches which are not optimal for gaming like optical or hall effect
    -soldered switches (have fun when they break or you want to try something else)
    -two cables (pass through should work with just one, there is enough bandwidth)
    -wired keyboard
    -extremely fat bezel

    Do you know if they will be releasing the only viable option - meaning TKL? Also, the full size is overpriced and overstacked with functions majority of ppl don't need - I bet a core version without all the gimmicks like extra macro buttons on the left and on the side, no second scroll for cheaper would sell a hell lopt better than this overpriced behemoth :)
