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

It’s a good key board, but when I got mine, the wrist pad that I receive was torn to shreds and the spacebar’s stabilisers were broken. Performs good, but having a wobbly space bar and a wrist pad that looks like it stormed Normandy Beach takes way from that.

The space bar broke within the first two weeks and we were sent an immediate replacement which was nice. The replacement has been good for the last couple months, but it still feels cheap.

When I tell you this Keyboard is the best ive ever owned (or used for that matter) I make no exaggeration :D the lights arent overpowering, keys feel and sound great to the tap, only feedback would be to get a wrist cushion as the keys are quite tall and was odd to get used at the start. Have not used the muting elastics quite yet but would definitely purchase again in a heartbeat if the need arose!

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.

Impressive for the price. Razer has come a long way with their switches. My favorite keyboard switch is the Cherry MX Brown, and these are very close. Subjectively, this keyboard is a little bit louder but not by much. Typing on it feels great, very responsive. Pros: - Great backlighting, with fine control of the brightness. - Tactile switches, very close to Cherry MX Browns. - Braided cable. - Roughly 2/3 the cost of keyboards with Cherry MX switches + backlighting. - Dedicated media keys. Cons: - The larger keys such as spacebar and shift use the old metal crossbar style. This makes them more difficult to remove for cleaning / adding O-rings. Since these are things you dont need to do often, I consider this a minor inconvenience. - Slightly louder than Cherry MX Brown keyboards. - Razer Synapse bloat is required to customize it. - Alt / Fn / Menu keys are different sizes, so if you remap those keys you wont be able to move them around.

I bought this because I have a friend with one who recommended it but I was worried about the orange switches being too noisy. I Installed the o-rings and while that did help a lot with the noise I noticed that the switches began to sound springy which really sucked because it became too hard to not notice. Other than the springy sound its a very nice personal keyboard to use at the house but just not the best for office. I love the build quality to it and the way it sounds without the o-rings.

I’ve read a lot of the reviews for this keyboard before purchasing and still purchased it hoping mine would be different considering I’ve bought many things in the past that had many bad reviews and I never had to complain about a thing. I just got it today so I don’t know yet if the keys stick like everyone else’s but I’ve been putting work through this since I’ve gotten it just to test it. So far I love it, the magnetic wrist pad is comfy as h***. The keys feel great and automatically it started installing drivers for the mouse when I hooked it up. I love it Edited March 4th. It’s been a week now and keyboard still feels amazing. I’ve done lots of hard gaming on here and even some pounding on the keyboard and yet to have not deal with anything like keys being double tapped or sticking. Still a great keyboard overall and well worth the money

The box says for gamers by gamers but Im a programmer not a gamer... I have a much cheaper tenkeyless keyboard with noisy blue cherry keys that I really like but is too noisy for my wife since I work from home. I chose this keyboard because their website had sound samples and so I had a good idea that it would be quieter before I paid so much. It is MUCH quieter than the blue cherry as I hoped. The O rings help only a little bit. My wife is MUCH happier too. The downside is that the shifted function on the keys is not backlit. The first image shows the keyboard with backlighting on. I replaced the 0) key with one from my blue cherry keyboard. It fit and the second image shows that the ) is visible with the backlight on the other keyboard. Unfortunately the skirt is too long on the keys for the blue cherry keyboard and the stroke bottoms out on the skirt, which increases the noise. I used a dremel tool to scratch some of the secondary functions through the black paint so that they are visible with backlighting. Its not pretty but it works for me. Such a small change in how they printed the keycaps and it would have been a great keyboard for gamers and programmers.

Great product, I love the keys these switches are nice and clicky. I can type & do all my things and just bang on it and it sounds like im a fancy hacker. I just got it and this review is pretty much a few minutes after having it. If i had a con it would be the height of the actual keys from the base of the keyboard body. They are pretty high if you are not using a wristrest your hand may get tired. Its just a sentence of typing and my hands were feeling fatigued. I dropped the kickstands back down to make it flat and its immediately much better. Yeah this is a great keyboard on a deal.

Its my first mechanical keyboard so i cant compare this keyboard to another mechanical keyboards, but as a affordable upgrade from a cheap membrane its a great choice. Its not perfect, but it have the satisfying clicks, its looking realy good with the white leds nd the aluminium cover under the buttons. However there is 3 downsides in my opinion, which is not really a deal breaker but a little annoying detail, when you are sitting low enough you kinda see the mechanical switch under i mean the oramge plastic) and its kinda looks weird - but again, you really have to sit on the floor in order to see that. Another downside, which is the main one - the terrible a laggi software. And the last downside is that this keyboard is a little bit higher than i expected, I got used to it so its not so terrible but you have to consider that.
