  Amazing, but kind of a gimmick, a cool one still!

  • Tech Insider Network Member

  I’m just going to summarize this review in just a few words. “This keyboard is awesome” ~ that's it, but to elaborate on that just a little, software support is lacking despite Razer doing some clever workarounds. That’s the TL:DR, it’s a fantastic keyboard! It’s not perfect, nothing is, but there’s way more to love than hate IMO and some games that typically don’t have analog support, do with this keyboard. I’ll start with the “cons”. It’s loud, if you want a slightly quieter keyboard typing experience, this isn’t it. I mean it’s so loud that people can hear it during my meetings I take from home. I just have to mute myself during the meetings. Which slows down my ‘chime in’ speed for topics, but it’s no biggie. Secondly, where’s the game support? I tried it on several of my games and by default, I wanna say 99% of them aren’t supported. Which is sad! But this isn’t necessarily a con because in ‘Analog WASD” mode I was able to get a lot of my games working with it oddly. For example Borderlands 4 worked great in WASD Analog mode, but I couldn’t get Hades or Destiny 2 to work. This is even with "Analog WASD" mode enabled or custom profile. But the biggest “why” and con for me was the lighting. Why can’t I change that in “typing mode” aka “factory default”? I feel like the lighting controls should have it’s own “Reset to Factory” separate and independently of the “Actuation” tab, but that’s just me. Again, all solvable problems by creating your own profile which is super easy to do. Now for the Pros which is a much shorter list for me to type, but a longer list in terms of actual thoughts on this keyboard. Long story short, everything else is good, gaming performance, analog controls, typing (when customized), media controls, and there's an actual "Print Screen" button, etc. I tried Forza with this keyboard and it’s INCREDIBLY odd using a keyboard for that game, but it’s doable. Playing Borderlands 4 worked as well, but in that game I rarely needed to ‘analog’ my movements. But it works you just HAVE to switch it to analog WASD mode! Luckily on the Insert, Home, Delete, End, PgUp & Dn, there’s presets there that cover most situations. Basically, I recommend this keyboard to anyone that wants to adjust their actuation point to help ‘dampen’ your poor typing skills. My accuracy in each press needs work, and with this keyboard it doesn’t have to be perfect. In gaming having the ability to adjust that is also super nice. For example in Black Ops 7 (I know I know) throwing the grenade is significantly easier because a feather can trigger it. So my finger doesn’t have to stretch to get it done. In BattleField 6, I can slide so much easier now. Again actuation customization for the win. Also analog keys work in both these games as well. So for me, the three B Shooters, Battlefield 6, Black Ops 7, and Borderlands 4 all worked with analog keys. And not sure if this counts as cheating or not, but having it having rapid fire on some things…. Kind of makes me feel slimy lol. But it works lol. I am very happy with this keyboard.

  Intuitive Onboard Adjustment Shortcuts

  • Tech Insider Network Member

  The Razer Huntsman V3 Pro gaming keyboard is an intuitive, quick-adjusting keyboard with incredible polling rate. It is well-made, high-performing, and efficient when it comes to gameplay. *What’s Included* Included with the keyboard are a wrist pad, a USB-C to USB-A wired connection, a quick reference guide, and an informative manual. *Quality* The keyboard feels robust and well-made with a brushed metal overlay atop a plastic shell bottom. It is weighed enough to prevent it from being easily moved but is not hefty. The keys are quite deep, allowing for a wide range of actuation customization. The textured keys have a high degree of sideways wobble when lightly depressed, making it obvious to the touch when they are tapped but there is no wobble when deeply depressing. There is a satisfying clickiness to it, but I must add that the depth of the keys makes it hard to use for standard typing. The keys are backlit, with only the letters providing a strong, bold light. Seeing the keys in the dark is easy on the eyes.It has rubber lined back legs that allow it to stand up to an ergonomic position while preventing slippage. The included wrist pad provides adequate ergonomic support with no frills. It is made of a seemingly hard hollow shell that is top lined with thin leatherette fabric that has no cushion or foam. *Functionality* The shortcuts provided by this keyboard are exceptionally easy to understand and apply with clear instructions on a quick reference guide. It even includes LED indicators that show the mm actuation options, which can be changed by turning the multi-function digital dial. The ability to make quick changes to actuation or switch profiles makes this keyboard stand out among others as there is no need to leave a game to get on an app to make the changes. The backlight plays a large role in visual representations of changes made. It will glow a specific color for each profile selected and will show the actual actuation point as you depress a key before committing to it when fine-tuning the rapid-fire setting. It has an extremely high polling rate of 8kHz and any input lag imperceptible during gameplay. It is the most efficient and intuitive keyboard I have used thus far. *App* The keyboard connects with Razer Synapse app. I already had the app and it managed to find the keyboard immediately. The app is streamlined and great for refining the keyboard’s functions and adding profiles among other things. *Conclusion* While this keyboard is no good for everyday typing, it excels in its niche. It elevates performance when gaming, makes it easier to fine-tune on the fly, and has a short learning curve. I highly recommend this keyboard for serious gamers because it does not disappoint.

  Smooth and Customizable for Everyday Use

  • Tech Insider Network Member

  For a while now I've used Razer Huntsman V3 Pro TKL, which I typically do not rush into buying "pro-grade" peripheral products, but it definitely piqued my interest a lot faster than anticipated. The analog optical switches are incredibly responsive; the Rapid Trigger feature definitely aids in smoothing out your repeated inputs during fast shooters. It took me about a day or so before I stopped accidentally over-triggering keys. I did not think that I would take much advantage of the adjustable actuation function, but the on-board adjustable LED array makes tuning them on-the-fly rather easy. The keyboard has an overall dense and muted sound profile. I was pleasantly surprised at how much quieter it was than I expected, especially considering how performance-oriented this keyboard is. The aluminium top plate feels nice and solid. The PBT keycaps offer a great texture but according to my style, the font is somewhat gamer-ish. The magnetic wrist rest is firm, but it's also fairly comfortable and tends to shift when I move my board quickly (which happens more often than I would like it to). Having the HyperPolling at 8000 Hz makes it difficult to "feel" it functioning, but it does register every key press very quickly. This is all I need from this keyboard when I compete. Overall, even with a couple of minor quirks, this has been one of the most reliable and enjoyable keyboards I have used in quite some time. I would rate it 5 stars, even though I wasn't originally planning on giving it that high of a rating.
