I need a numpad so I appreciate you covering keyboards with those. I work from home using my gaming keyboards and I deal with numbers all day. I really want to pick this up. I might just do it
I do make full use of the numpad for key assignment in FPS games eg, Inventory up/down, Lean left/right, switch grenade types etc. I know its strange but all my life I have never used WSAD for direction but used the arrow keys instead lol. So the numpad next to it is very important to me which is why I have never bought a TKL keyboard before lol.

Between the green clicky, yellow linear and orange tactile, the only one that doesn't sound cheap imo are the orange tactile. I got them in my V4 75% and I love them
as a person who transferred from a 60% to this, it is REALLY hard to adjust since my pinky is used to rest on the farthest left button which used to be the CTRL but with the blackwidow v4 its the M1 button so the whole keyboard is off to me and it takes a while to adjust
Just typing using my v4 pro and I must say it is an amazing keyboard especially with the green switch. I got V4 x as well with yellow switch but did not realize typing with a green switch keyboard will be a mesmerising experience. Green switch is little clicky but indeed a soothing experience.
Definitely adding this to my setup, especially after the flop of blackwidow v3 pro, with no macro keys and non-magnetic wrist rest (even tho my old v2 was magnetic, how can razer call it "pro"?🤔🤔🤔). Honestly, the only thing that I will miss are the orange switches, which unfortunately aren't a feature anymore, so I'll go for the yellow ones. Other than that, v4 pro seems to be the upgrade v2 deserved and didn't get with the v3 series.
Still rocking my blackwidow chroma V2, I absolutely love this thing it still works perfectly fine but I wish it had the media type keys for volume and shit.
I just picked this up today after I snapped a switch on my huntsman analog. My best buy only had the clicky green which i'm not a massive fan of, but it feels pleasant to type on and i don't hate it so far.. and what you said about the aviator cables is wrong - I plugged mine in to this keyboard when you had mentioned it in the video and it works fine!
Bought this Keyboard 5 days ago. Searched my local stores for over a week, couldn't find the Yellow switch anywhere! Decided to order from Amazon on Friday. My Tracking showed it would arrive the very next day, Saturday by 10 p.m! Here I'm sitting, Thursday and tracking is telling me....sorry for the delay, your package will be arriving by the 29th! Well it's the 29th. Get your shit together, Amazon!
My 5 years old keyboard costs about 4 dollars. Have multimedia keys, was smaller, lighter, and had bigger keys, so writing was easier, less accurate fingers moves was good. Its looks awful, but still works perfect. I bought this. Bigger, heavier, smaller keys, louder, even with yellow switches, and guess so, one key breaks after 10 days. So yeah...
Seems Razer went all out with this KB 😅 in a good way of course. And for the 2 USB cables - remember the THICC cable of the Corsair K70 and such? so guess what, that's actually 2 USB cables sleeved in one! (one for the KB and one for passthrough), with a small connector for each terminal at the end (the one used in wired mice usually). I actually modded mine with 2 type-C connectors so I plug 2 cables just like this one, but placed them one over the other so the top cable (coiled and sleeved) is hiding the bottom one 😁
I vehemently hate left side macro keys. Always a deal breaker. The way I type I have my pinky touching the left side, so no-go always. Shame I liked the edge lightning.
I have an old blackwidow chroma that has one cord for the kb, USB pass-through, and 3.5mm pass-through. Though it splits into 3 to plug into the computer.
i have the 2013 blackwidow and it does that too. one cable turns into four. I'm looking for an upgrade and this looks really nice but mine still looks and feels great. I don't know if I need to spend the money
@@jamesmanahan2800do you have an issue with the lighting? after I got the app on the PC and upgraded the firmware the lights don't work and some keys became useless. I still type no problem and volume keys fortunately still work but the key light buttons don't work and even trying to change the lights in the app doesn't work. it's not a huge deal but it's sad. I feel like Razer broke my keyboard with the firmware. now I really don't know if I want to upgrade. and I bet it's like this with almost any new keyboard unfortunately.
I'm trying to find a keeb that will let me assign constant color of each key, for instance "F" keys all white, nuumber keys all red, letter keys all green and so on. I have GMMK Glorious Full Size and Corsaie K60 RGB Pro. I don't think they can do that. Not 100% sure since neither mfr can bother to include instructions on how to set the keyboard.
Wanted to upgrade my V2 but Razer lost me when they discontinued the Orange switches. So now the choice is Green - type writer or yellow with no tactile feel. No thanks Razer. Orange switches were perfect
I actually got my Alien Huntsman V2 Analog for 130 bucks. I just really like Razers switches and they dont sell them seperately. And given that People spend well over 3000 dollars for their custom keyboards sometimes, I dont really think that is too crazy.
Bro I need help, I have a question, the hot key to change rgb for this keyboard is fn+ctrl+theNumber, but when I download the synapse its not working anymore, is it the same with you?
I bet they just made the actuation distance a bit shorter, and that's what you're feeling not the 8k polling rate. I'd like to see a double blind test.
I got the Blackwidow V3 months ago and was blown away with how cheap and terrible it was. It wasn't really expensive but dang, massive pinging on every click, the cheapest feeling plastic and keyboard that I've ever used. Clicks are bad yada yada. I had Used the Blackwidow tournament edition chroma in the past and it was insanely superior in nearly ever way. Build quality, switch feel, no pinging.. Only thing is it didn't make it past 2 years before having a dead P key. I just wish Razer didn't cheap out so hard on their black widow series. Went from my favorite clicky board to the worst I've tried. They just needed to mantain their quality, fix the common dead key issue and update features with whatever the market is asking for. i've since tried several keyboards. Logitech g pro is solid enough and better than decent. Wooting is remarkable but cost several times these other keyboards. Haven't tried the Blackwidow V4 cause I lost all faith that Razer's Blackwidows will be remotely worth it. That said their mice like the Viper and Deathadder V3 pro are good. Their boards though, oof.
Not impressed. I am still using my Corsair K95 with 18 macro keys on the left side, with three modes so it's actually 54 macros. Same media controls. And I got mine in the spring of 2012, so 11 years and counting.
I mean 1000hz is basically 0.001ms intervals so 8K is a gimmick. I'd rather they'd pack it with proper thick PBT keycaps. Nice that they are textured, but it's just not it. Other than that, has useful macros and a nice feeling wrist rest.
Can you set the dial to handle the volume instead of the roller , i hate adjusting volume on the leviathan v2 and am currently adjusting it via huntsman elite
My opinion on extra keys right next the ESC, Shift and Ctrl button is trash.. I get the concept but as a person who experienced using a keyboard that has extra keys on next felt so uncomfortable because usually my pinky finger has to feel the Ctrl & Shift button all time to react immediately. The gap between is small too so you cannot even rest your pinky finger in between those keys. (I got skinny fingers)
I love my drop control, omg I need a keypad. I'm an old school 10-key guy. I wish Drop would make one with a 10key that wasn't some compressed layout. I absolutely hate using a separate 10key, but I have to with my drop control.
how do gaming boards screw up the stabilizers this bad year after year when even budget boards have proved to have good ones out of the box (pulsar pcmk for example)
@@Hondaddy I had razer blackwidow v2 and they were using costar stabs at the time. It was HORRIBLE. Way worse than any mechanical keyboard I had after it. I am not advocating for cherry stabs cuz they aren't great, but costar isn't any better
Great video! Personally, I can’t use a full size board since I use my left hand for the numpad. If this keyboard has detachable numpad to put it which ever side, I would be more interested in it. I know there are a few boards like that out there but I find a dedicated numpad to be working well.
@@k_while9497 I was looking at getting one to run for a bit, I currently main the Mountain Everest max and I've been loving it. preferring a left number pad is both a blessing and a curse cause they're few and far between not to mention pricey
Nah that’s just the sound of the switches, razer yellows are razers “silent” switch, they need to design a long pole esk type switch. Loud bottom out will hide the stab rattle a little better lol
I have the Corsair K100 and a lot of the V4 just seems to be copying what it has. Was hoping to see something more with the V4 considering how long the K100 has been out.
I'm using the k100 right now and in this point you're right. It has everything, what the v4 has as well. But the k100 feels not worthy to me. there is a annoying metallic sound while typing and the stabilizers dont feel solid to me. So now I'm selling it and just bought the v4... Razer never disappointed me so far.
1KHz vs 8KHz more snapy... sooooo... 1ms vs 0.125ms... You really can fell less than 1ms difference? On the keyboard (not even a mouse)? Seems like some kind of marketing, were you paid for this review or bought one yourself?
ngl the astetics of he keyboard are outstanding but i dont think the majority uses makros anymore and the boards by wooting are the true advatage you can have
So I just bought the Hunstman V2 Analog and was wondering if I should return it and get this. I got the huntsman for $80 MSRP. but I am okay with paying a bit more for a more versatile and better keyboard for gaming and productivity. Any comments on this would help!
I might be a little late, but if I were you, I'd have returned it for v4 pro. Of course idk what sort of user you are and if you need it, but since you are ok paying the difference I will say a big big yes; return it. Return it YESTERDAY!😂
@Modest Reshiram haha all good, I ended up returning the v2 analog for yhe v4 pro with yellow switches and it was the best decision I could've made 😂 really loving the v4 pro and just got the viper v2 pro as well. But wondering if I should return and get the deathadder v3 pro 🤔

Keyboards without a numpad are not my thing. I use the numpad daily for work and gaming. So, I am into this style of KB here. This one seems a little light, though.

@@Amryen Yeah, that's fair. I have issues with the K100 as well. Unfortunately I am far past the return date so I just deal with it.
Finally, they bring Macro keys back.
1KHz vs 8KHz more snapy... sooooo... 1ms vs 0.125ms...
You really can fell less than 1ms difference? On the keyboard (not even a mouse)?
Seems like some kind of marketing, were you paid for this review or bought one yourself?
Good keyboard but why no wireless
ngl the astetics of he keyboard are outstanding but i dont think the majority uses makros anymore and the boards by wooting are the true advatage you can have
totally agree, I want this keyboard with no macro keys
Hello there, may you please make a video review to ROG Azoth review?
Thank you for the video
i bought this and its not hot garbage, it's just... hot.
This or Asus Rog Flare 2 Anime?
Deathstalker v2 pro or this?
razer huntsman v2 - linear optical
So I just bought the Hunstman V2 Analog and was wondering if I should return it and get this. I got the huntsman for $80 MSRP. but I am okay with paying a bit more for a more versatile and better keyboard for gaming and productivity. Any comments on this would help!
I might be a little late, but if I were you, I'd have returned it for v4 pro. Of course idk what sort of user you are and if you need it, but since you are ok paying the difference I will say a big big yes; return it. Return it YESTERDAY!😂
@Modest Reshiram haha all good, I ended up returning the v2 analog for yhe v4 pro with yellow switches and it was the best decision I could've made 😂 really loving the v4 pro and just got the viper v2 pro as well. But wondering if I should return and get the deathadder v3 pro 🤔
I would get the huntsman v2 purple switch. You need optical switches to take advantage of the 8k polling rate
@@jstarproductions7335 Thanks for your input! I ended up getting the Blackwidow V4 Pro as I prefer the yellow linear switches and it has 8k polling
They should put the side buttons on the top
No onboard memory? How can we use it at work
late reply but there is onboard mem, it was a surprise once i plugged it in.
I like my Corsair K100 but I think I would like this one too. K100 will last me for some time though so no pressure..
hello corsair lover i am using this keyboard currently thats in the video, i wanted to know how the K100 is like, is it good for comfort gaming? is it good for competitive gaming??
@@Unreal_Reviews I really like K100, no I love it. I love how sensitive the buttons are and I love aluminium / metal chassis. The pad is wrest pad is also great. The RGB is amazing. I can customize every single key and I make special profiles for different games I play. It just looks cool. I am super happy with my K100. I like everything about it. How do you find your Razer Blackwidow Vr PRo?
It will be macro king when taran approves it
I need this with the orange switches
Keyboards without a numpad are not my thing. I use the numpad daily for work and gaming. So, I am into this style of KB here.
This one seems a little light, though.
Logitech G15. Just somehow came to the back of my mind ;-)
I really liked the huntsman elite... Sadly it got soaked with water and now im having a hard time finding one to buy. I am also trying to save the soaked one by cleaning it with purified water and leaving it to dry for two weeks😬
Or just get the Wooting full size?
“Macro king of gaming keyboards”………Anyone remember the Corsair K-95 with 18 macro keys?
is this wireless ?
Wish this didn't cost twice my monthly salary in my country, gonna continue with my old v2 till the end of days I suppose.
I also have/still have blackwidow v2 ,in my country v4 pro costs 363 euro i would than rather buy razer huntsman v2 - linear optical for 200 euro.
your monthly salary $150 CAD? must be undeveloped country
@@ProAvgeek6328 you must be really smart if you think this keyboard cost exactly 150 converted in other countries' currency...
It's more like 600CAD converted.
@@Vunk inflation?
@@ProAvgeek6328 Import fees and taxes. A 500$ item gets a 300$ import fee + 90$ sale taxes + vendor profit ~= 1000$
i don't understand how people can live with tenkeyless keyboards. have you ever tried to type numbers without a numpad? it's horrendous!
had to send this keyboard back to amazon, the layout is weird in gaming. not a fan of the nub top left (trying to hit esc blind? nope) or the macro keys on the left side. for typing its really nice just not for gaming imo
I swear there was a 75% version, might be better for you.
This looks way better than their v3 pro wireless.
Agreed. I hope there's another model up with pbt keycaps and wireless.
