Razer BlackWidow Lite TKL Tenkeyless Mechanical Keyboard : Orange Key Switches - Tactile & Silent - White Individual Key Lighting - Compact Design - Detachable Cable - Classic Black

My typing is faster and error-free after upgrading to this keyboard from membrane keyboards. And I would say the feel is great and the keys are not too noisy, either. The biggest improvement is the reduction in mouse shoulder. My shoulders used to get very tense and sore due to mousing. This was in large part due to the width of a conventional keyboard forcing the mouse too be placed too far to the right. My mouse shoulder was so sore that I was forced to switch move the mouse to the left side, but that only created the same problems on my left. Sacrificing the number keypad was no problem, and the narrow dimensions means I can now use the mouse in an ergonomic position. Voila! My mouse shoulder symptoms have decreased 90+%, so much so that I havent had to switch the mouse to the left.

This keyboard was absolutely amazing. It had everything I needed and wanted. Except. All the setting you set, keybinds, light affects, etc, DONT WORK WITHOUT THE COMPUTER YOU SET THEM UP ON. I plugged it into my ps5 and it just reverts to the original settings no matter what. I contacted razed about this and there’s no way to fix it. It’s super annoying and technically still useable if you only want the default lighting and everything. Lighting was super cool and had everything and more, but didn’t work with ps5, only could do spectrum lights for ps5. Great keyboard, quiet, very bright. 10/10, but only for windows. 0/10 for console if you want customization

I decided recently to upgrade both of my keyboards to mechanical ones, and after doing quite a lot of research, I decided that these BlackWidow TKL linear switch keyboards were the best fit for me with price and performance in mind. Overall Im pretty happy: the touch and feel of the keyboard is wonderful (I really prefer the linear switches), the wrist rest is essential and quite comfortable, and the TKL size allows me to position the keyboard near the mouse, which for me is ergonomically much better. (I had been using a Logitech Wave for years, and Im still a bit surprised by how much better this keyboard is for me overall.) Downsides? Firstly, these are the keys with the secondary characters not lit: if you want those lit, you have to spend about $30 more to get the PBT keycap upgrade package. (Or you can buy another Razer TKL product, most likely without a wrist rest.) Secondly, I dont like the light under the keys, I think thats quite unnecessary and distracting, actually making it harder to read those unlit characters. Oh, and my pet peeve is the Delete key being the same size as the others: I happen to use it almost as often as I use backspace, and much prefer keyboards where that key is made larger. Finally, you want to hope you never need Razer customer service. My experience with them has been pretty bad: theyre really slow, they dont do what they say theyll do, and it can take several days and multiple attempts to do something that with Amazon takes about 5 minutes. They dont seem to take it seriously enough.

La sensación de tecleo es muy buena y no requiere de mucha fuera para presionar una tecla. La iluminación que trae es sólo luz blanca y es perfecta para aquellos que quieran ver los caracteres en zonas poca iluminadas y no perturba tanto la vista como las luces RGB. La base es metálica, por lo que a veces al presionar una tecla puedes llegar a escuchar la reverberación del metal, pero no es nada grave. Por algún lado leí que la tecla de espacio no es del tamaño que son otras teclas que venden por aparte, así que si quieres cambiar las teclas, podrías cambiar todas menos esa si compras kye caps genéricas. Trae unos cauchos para que el sonido de las teclas sea menor, pero al ponerlo requiere de un poquito más de fuerza para presionar las teclas, a mí no me gustó usarlos, parece como presionando un teclado de membrana y no me agradó. Recomiendo mucho este teclado, en especial para trabajos donde se requiera escribir mucho, como programar. Ah sí, no tiene la Ñ, así que si escribes en español tendrás que saber dónde está la Ñ y la tilde.

Perfect gaming keyboard for work from home...orange razer key has good feedback and accuracy

For reference Ive had it since April 9, 2020 with the green switches. The keyboard works great and the RGB aspects of it are fantastic especially thanks to the layer under the keys that helps diffuse the light. Its a TKL which is great for that extra mouse room. I do have issues with it though. The switches arent particularly smooth since I got it, you can feel it scrape a bit, I assume some lube would fix that pretty easily but Id expect a better out of the box quality for its price. They also dont have a good consistency even out of the box. You can press a key then the one right next to it and they sound very different and have a bit of a different feel from each other but its not as noticeable unless you actively test it and compare. The wrist rest is a nice addition, it feels very comfortable to use, I do kind of have an issue with mine where basically in just a month as you can see in the pictures the left part of it started like... bubbling up making it feel slightly rougher. Overall its a good keyboard, its pretty heavy which is great since it doesnt move around while gaming, wish it had a metal top plate for its price and not a fan of the Razer switches compared to having Cherry MX switches like in previous Razer Keyboards but they get the job done and they feel alright. If you get it during a sale and it has a good discount, go for it, totally reccomend it. Not reccomended at its normal value of $140, for that price you can get something better.

Lets start with the good. Build quality is solid. The feet, deck, and switches are all built to last and easy to keep clean. The white-only illumination is nice, I do not need a unicorn barfing a rainbow on every keystroke. The switches are quiet have a nice tactile bump, however I am not a mechanical switch connoisseur. The USB-micro cable is detachable/replaceable and braided which is a nice touch. Now the not so good. The secondary characters do not illuminate; for example the / is lit, but not the ?. I use an advanced form of hunt-and-peck that includes some touch (dont judge me), so this is occasionally an issue for me. The cable is USB-micro, not USB-c. Why? Now the bad. Remember how I said the switches are quiet (not silent)? Yeah, about that. There is no audible click, yet a few switches squeak (sarcastic yay!). And ALL the key presses make noise. Every damn one. It has been described as a Clydesdale on a cobblestone street and a box of Legos thrown down stairs. People know you are working. HARD. And will ask you to mute on conference calls. Or maybe ask you to pay attention. You will definitely have their attention when using this keyboard. You have been warned. All in all, I really LIKE this keyboard. Everyone I work with does not, I catch a lot of razzing and grief.

The keyboard feels nice to the touch. the keys are exactly what i was looking for in a keyboard. snappy and feel good. the only thing i wish was a little different was the wrist rest. it sits a little higher than the keyboard so your thumb has to press a little long to get to the keyboard. The angle of wrist rest to keyboard is a little uncomfortable but im sure its something ill get used to over time.

Bought in March 2020. Its now May 2023. The keyboard itself was perfect for me... but the left ALT key no longer works. I use the keyboard for work and light gaming. Im disappointed because I have a Razer mouse that lasted almost a decade. That was through lots of gaming sessions.
