Not a good job explaining why the keyboard is not "a good investment" in your verdict. I guess you want the viewer to circle back to your "downsides" sections?
It's not up to me to decide why it's not good for you, I just highlighted what I didn't like or was concerned about, the rest is up to you. Everything is just a perception and so is my experience with things
@@RomanDoes Thank you for sharing your perspective. I appreciate your honesty and the clarity with which you've expressed your concerns. It's valuable to hear different viewpoints, and your input has given me a lot to think about. I understand that everyone has their own experiences and perceptions, and it's helpful to see things from another angle. I will definitely take your feedback into consideration as I make my own decision. Your respectful and open-minded approach to communication is refreshing and encourages a more thoughtful discussion.
I am facing the same issues with the wireless dongle. I did an software update and it didn't changed anything. I contacted razer to request a solution and they offered me a new keyboard if I destroyed the cord and the keyboard ... And I was like "guys it's 2024, I am not going to destroy valuable things on purpose, just because you ship buggy products" ... So they sent me a new wireless dongle. But in the meantime I changed to wooting 2 hr and I am very happy about that.
@@RomanDoes The First Playing Session over 3 hours was without any problems. But with the original i also had no problems during the first days / weeks - so i don't trust it yet :D One Difference is, that the exchange dongle is Labeld "HyperSpeed" and the original was "DSv2Pro" . I don't know if this is just a label or if there is also a difference in the specs of the dongle, but its something i've noticed.
ur review is 100000% spot on i know this, because i have one its so bad i have to use it plugged in 24/7 and the razer software is bloatware helll anyone looking to buy it , advoid it or buy it with the store warrenty n return it later
What the hell is the Razer even try to achieve here? I literally just swapped g915 for DS just find that it does not even support saving basic color scheme profiles on its onboard memory, like WTF without the necessity to be running the cancer of SW called Synapse. Not even Logitech with its over-engineered piece of crap called G-Hub had this audacity and at least offered two slots for custom profiles. Here you can only choose one color and that is it. That's outright downgrade of the highest caliber to for such over-expensive keyboard.
I wish I watched this video before buying the Deathstalker V2 Pro TKL cause now I’m having a horrible experience with the keyboard. The connectivity of the keyboard is horrendous and would frequently disconnect the keyboard entirely. To the point where I have to use a cable to connect it to my PC, and it would still disconnect every now and then.
ah man, I ordered this v2 pro yesterday just because its white and there is no way I cancel the order. I am using Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed Phantom Edition Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Yellow Switches. I don't know how different this Razer DeathStalker V2 Pro is from Phantom Edition keys. I would use it for office work and very minimal for gaming purposes.
I can buy it in perfect condition for 108 $. How you think ? I be use it most of time wired on cable. Is good option then?. ps. i heart wireless dongle have very low range and is good to have use includet usb adapter to have reciver close like monitor them should work fine.
My dongle on the video was less than 3ft away. So I can't say much about how it will behave in your setup. Are you buying it used for that low? If so, then I'd think twice why they are selling 😀
i have a razor black widow. had the same connection issue delays and the "continuous repeat typing" with one key press sometimes. I've had one of their mice too, it is the knock off of the Logitech G502 lightspeed. It was super light weight, not in a good way. Did not move smoothly, stopped moving at all, and other things, i returned it. I think basically everything razor makes is mostly just knock off versions of logitech and other popular devices. I don't understand why Logitech, Corsair, and etc are not making FULL size high-speed RGB wireless keyboards. Other than the Razor Blackwidow, the only board that comes close is the Logitech Lightspeed. But it is also thin and low profile keys, which i don't like either. Who wants that for gaming? Not even comfortable for long typing sessions for imo.
Corsair has full size board, its called K100 Wireless and its low profile too. It does the job, but that price tag is.... lets say on another level. I didnt their CherryMX switches either when I tried it, as it has that cheap laptop chiclet feel to it.
I'm so confused. I have an razer ornata chroma the first version but now I don't know what I should get. I wanted something that has less latency and more responsive but there aren't many options when it comes to good low profile keyboards. I've been looking at wooting but idk I can't deal with the higher switches and keycaps since it causes me pain over time. I've tried wrist rest many times. hated all of them. Do you have any suggestions?
I have the TKL version of this. Never have any "connection" issues whatsoever lmao. Specially when it comes to input lag. That " when Synapse not installed" sounds like a u issue bro.
@@RomanDoes you mean the "lmao"? It's just something I add next to sentences. Not an actual me laughing. Just the way I type. But aside from that; I also have the normal version now and I still haven't seen these connection issues you're talking about (albeit I've had it for 2 days lol). And feel no input lag whatsoever either. Matter of fact my experience with the death stalker so far has been its key sensitivity and how easy it is to push a button. (which if u tend to do a lot of misclicks it can get very annoying.)
Might be a silly question, but I'm debating between the V2 and the V2 Pro (as seen here). If my battery gets low, I can plug in the USB-C to charge it but will that also turn it into a wired keyboard and turn off the wireless capability/features during use? I want to buy the wireless option so I have options.
My sole reason for getting this was white color... but those purple switches are too loud for day to day use. Maybe ok for gaming when I wear headphones, but working is impossible.
Why is that? What's negative in this review? I review things the way they are as I'm not selling it to you like many other channels who get paid to say things 😉
That's because today's components have some fundamental problem that interferes with the good feeling of use. Personally, I like to talk about the issues.

@udobuchter I'm pretty sure it's just a label since their dongles are universal across all Razer devices.
Top-Class connectivity, lol nice joke
Right?!😃

its so bad i have to use it plugged in 24/7

Crap I got the same issue with wireless connection. Did you eventually figure out how to fix it?
I sent mine back, no point of keeping it.
Nope, there is no way to fix this issue. I guess 90% of users use it with cable

@theemperor1379 you said you are laughing at not having connection issues whatsoever.

@theemperor1379 lmao stands for "laughning my ass off", why would you randomly put that at the end of sentences without meaning it?
Well I’d buy it but I don’t have money rn
there are better options at lower cost
at the start of the product launch (black version) there were buzzing sounds with activated RGB. Did you have any issues with electrical sounds?
@@garycoleman8906 nothing like that
XD, put dongle in a most unreasonable usb port, complain about connecivity issues. *surprised pikachu face*
@@gladcomming what is the most reasonable USB port on your face?
or g515 TLK linear ?
haven't tried it...

I want to buy the wireless option so I have options.
If you have it connected as wireless via dongle or Bluetooth, cable will only charge it.
@@RomanDoes so if I disable those modes and plug it in, it still works as a wired keyboard?
@@VorticieFilms correct!
thanks best review, there is not enought white keyboards on the market imo. this one looks the best but not sure about the clicky switches
My sole reason for getting this was white color... but those purple switches are too loud for day to day use. Maybe ok for gaming when I wear headphones, but working is impossible.
@@RomanDoes The white TKL version is also available with red switches.
@@VTOLfreak TKL is not good for office work. I need that keypad on a side
