RazerHuntsman V2 Analog Gaming Keyboard: Adjustable Actuation via Analog Optical Switches - Rapid Trigger Mode - Chroma RGB Lighting - Magnetic Wrist Rest - Dedicated Media Keys & Dial - Black

Let me start by saying that this keyboard is a MUST for anyone! It is absolutely the best thing I have put my fingers on in quite a while......LOLFor the last 3 months I have been on the hunt for a keyboard that would meet all my crazy criteria...and I finally found it.First, some background: I am a software engineer and have been writing code and working at a desk in front a keyboard for the last 27 years, so a keyboard (and mouse) is my tool for the trade.In addition, I am extremely picky. More than just for the purpose of creature comforts, I look for "utility" in my tech and for things to be solid, good quality and made in a logical way.For a keyboard, I had this list of criteria:1. Backlit keys2. Quiet keys3. Primary dedicated media buttons that do NOT require a Fn/secondary key to be pressed for access.4. Easy volume controls5. Quiet keys6. Solid build that does not bend down with each key press7. Multi-colors for the backlit keys, if possible8. Quiet keys9. Mechanical-style keys (height and actuation)10. Properly spaced keys11. Quiet keys12. "Linear" Enter key (not "L" shape.....why...why?)Did I mention Quiet keys??? That actually should have been at the top of the list.I know it is a personal preference, and mine is not the clicky noise...it's just too distracting to me.Well, folks - this is it! This is the keyboard that answers ALL the criteria above.To date, I have tried over 20 keyboards and none hit the mark. I've tried cheap ones, medium and expensive ones. Couldn't find it until this.The keys are made of a nice material that provides just that little "grip" you need not to slide off of the surface.Actuation is amazing and the bottom of the key press is dampened (noise-side) in such a nice way that you can barely hear it. I really do mean barely!!SO many reviews and manufacturer write-ups talk about quiet keys...but they were not.This keyboard is absolutely that - quite and pleasant (if you can even say that).Keys are spaced out nicely and typing accuracy is very high.I particulary like the fact that I can set RGB values for the backlit color of the keys...that's just excellent.The software that gets installed by Razer is very good as well. Intuitive and gives you super control over every aspect of the keyboard.I've only had this keyboard ONE day, and already love it. If I think about it, I will return in 30 days and add an update.Price - I wasn't too "comfortable" with spending that type of cash for a keyboard...but now that it's here and I am typing this review with it...it was worth every penny! You DO get what you pay for.If you are in the market - spend the extra dollars and get this! You will NOT be disappointed!!! :)

It seems like I'm always on the hunt for a good keyboard I can use for work. I work from home, from two different locations, and wanted a second keyboard so I didn't have to keep transporting peripherals back and forth, so I picked this keyboard. Holy crap, what a fantastic find. The keys have a non-slick, tactile feel to them, with a stiff enough feedback that minimizes typos without causing undo strain with long typing sessions, with a soft feel at the bottom of the stroke. The keyboard is also quiet! Not whisper quiet but very very muted. I also like the volume wheel that works like a charm. I haven't played with the lighting, because that's really not important to me, but I'm sure it works great. The wrist rest is also super comfortable, and has a magnetic edge so it 'clicks' into place against the bottom of the keyboard. This is another great feature in an already fabulous product. If you get the impression that I love this keyboard, then you are correct. It is BY FAR the best keyboard I have ever used, in my 35 years as a computer programmer. Well done, Razer!

I love my Razer keyboards. They are durable, and they have a lot of cool features like lighting and the ability to control what the individual keys do. For instance, I can shut off the caps lock key since I never use it and it only becomes a nuisance that computer manufacturers should remove It's a carryover from the typewriter days where that would come in handy. I have owned about 3 of them since the company started. It's generally the only brand I will buy. It's super high quality and long-lasting, and I love the features. It's the best gamer keyboard on the market. My only complaint is that they have been messing around with the software, making it hard to keep up with the changes. Most of them really don't make any sense, and they should just leave things alone. We have a mature product with mature support/configuration software. They really need to tread lightly when modifying the software. Unless there is a major need to change it, leave it alone. Otherwise, both of my Razer products (this keyboard and a Naga Trinity mouse) are amazing, and I love them. I even have a second set so that if I go to the hospital (something that is a good possibility), I have it packed up already, along with my spare power supply and spare cables, so I can get my stuff together quickly to head up to the ER when I am sick. Razer keyboards and mice are the only brand I buy. I compare them with other products and just don't find any that are better. Keep up the great work and please, just keep the config software simple. There is no need to overly complicate that.
