    Excellent gaming keyboard. Be sure to install Razer Synapse 3 to get full customization use out of it! The keyboard clicks loudly, as Green Razer switches do, and it feels quite satisfying to use. The wrist rest is also a nice add on that helps with typing fatigue.

    I’m very satisfied with this purchase. Gamer, music producer, writer. Previously was using the super thin wireless Apple keyboard and missed having a numpad, and the spacing felt off. Always loved mechanical keyboards. Great upgrade. Got it at an even better price.

    Great feel with these switches. Keyboard is top quality, though the feet which raise the back are a little finicky. The best attribute to this Keyboard is that the keys aren't sub surface, so keeping it clean is very easy. Well worth your hard earned money.

    I love this thing so far, I went up 10wpm in typing alone...you should seem my kdr's...seriously though, great build quality, not to terribly loud for a clicky while still being satisfying. Pass through is kind of useless, but it has it. All around great purchase!

    Honestly after all the beaten this keyboard has taken in surprised that it still works perfectly fine (Button smashing in rhythm games), I love the tactile green switches. The multimedia buttons are a great add on plus the wrist rest it perfect. I’m glad I chose this keyboard

    This keyboard is so smooth and you can never discredit the RGB lighting. The green switches are very loud and clicky and I should've looked at that before making this purchase. Other than that it feels like you can flawlessly type or play any game with this.

    I got this on blackfriday for 80 bucks and this is so worth it. I love the soft wristpad and the green switches. This is a major upgrade from my last keyboard. I love the razer synapse app because if you own more than one razer product, this comes in handy.

    Razer accessories are always worth the investment. I love this keyboard whether I'm answering emails or gaming. Well worth it and thankfully won't have to worry about returning this item as Best Buys return policy is by far the worst I've ever seen.

    Feels great! The sound of the clicking is so pleasing, and I enjoy using this keyboard. Lots of customizablity with the lighting and razer cortex. Only problem is not being able to set up the volume wheel with a specific app, just changes the whole computer sound.

    Now I wanted to upgrade my keyboard as it was long out of date and wanted something that was easier on my wrists as I write and game for long periods of time. I love everything about this keyboard, I love the sounds knobs, the lighting, the pop the keys make just everything.

    Overall love the keyboard. Keys have a great feel-old school click. Lighted keys are a helpful feature and enhance the overall aesthetics. I didn’t purchase the much more expensive model that was underlit as I also have the underlit mousepad. For the right price I would consider the underlit keyboard.

    I got this keyboard for $85 so i’m pretty happy with my purchase. I got the razer green switches which are pretty loud, my family is able to hear me typing even when my door is closed. Build quality is pretty good but i’m pretty disappointed about the use of abs keycaps. There is a alight ping whenever I type but the noise is pretty minimal. Overall it is a pretty good keyboard, but I don’t know if I would pay full price for it.

    If you’re looking for a keyboard to use daily, or just leisurely, look no further. It’s great for everyday use and is especially geared towards you gamers! The keys are great and you can tell they are premium. I love it! Honestly couldn’t ask for a better keyboard.

    4 star great keyboard with minor issues

    This is a very nice keyboard, with a couple of minor issues. On the plus side, it has the great Razer Green switch feel that is very pleasing if you like clicky keyboards. I very much appreciate the volume dial and the mute button on the top right., and I the layout is great - I don't like the keyboards with macro keys on the left, like the Razer Chroma, where I can accidentally bump a macro key instead of left control (especially with Photoshop). There is also a USB pass-through (missing on the Huntsman Elite), which I really like. The build quality is fantastic -- it feels like a premium keyboard in every way, which it should since it's pretty pricey as far as keyboards go. However, there are a couple of minor annoyances. Foremost, the spacebar, at least on my copy, makes a heavy "thunk" sound when it comes up. This is something I don't experience with other Razer keyboards, including the Chroma (the older green switches)and Huntsman (purple switches). Secondly, I wasn't able to make the FN+context key to activate on-board memory profile to work. I could save memory profiles, and the profiles worked as long as Synapse was working, but the whole idea of the on-board memory is to have it work without Synapse. Ironically, the only reason I wanted that is so that I could make the keyboard not spectrum cycle in the lock screen, which I also haven't found to stop. The Blackwidow Elite loses a star for me because I think the actual keys are a little less pleasing to both the more expensive Huntsman, and the less expensive Chroma. Of course, that's very subjective.

    The keyboard build is really good material makes it more sturdy. The switches are good but slightly more clicky but works good. The media controls is nice to have and the rgb software easy to use but hard to match to my pc rgb set up

    So, this is the best keyboard that I have used. I should purchase another one before I can't find this anymore. I type all day at work so having a great tool like this is essential. I also love the volume and media buttons along with the illuminated keys.
