For the hardcore gamer, much time is spent gaming at night, which is when the LEDs can come in handy, albeit one colour would probably suffice. Instead of the typical button mashing when trying to kill or run away from demons, the amazingly fast response of the Huntsman has us slowing down on presses, using light, accurate presses to run around, shoot, and smash enemies.

It's not directly attached, meaning you can move it to the perfect position for you, which contrasts with most other typers which come with wrist rests. There are a lot of choices though, so to help you make a quick decision, we've picked out our five favorite laptop deals from the ongoing promotion.response time, our 2nd Generation Optical Switches with Razer HyperPolling are 3x faster than Magnetic Switches. It should be noted that this keyboard comes in two variants when it comes to switches: red and purple. But, while competition is stiff, the tiny Razer Huntsman V2 TKL is more than capable of meeting most gamers’ needs. Also, it has customizable RGB backlighting, dedicated media keys, and a multi-function knob that controls volume by default. If you're a gamer looking to spice up the look of your desk or setup with a rainbow and spectrum of colorful RGB lights, then Razer has you covered with the new Firefly V2 gaming mouse mat.

The refined, compact shape of the Razer Huntsman V2 Tenkeyless - Optical Gaming Keyboard (Red Switch) | RZ03-03941600-R3W1 sees this keyboard boast a more lightweight design perfectly suited to the active lifestyle of the modern gaming. The Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro and the Razer Huntsman V2 are comparable mechanical gaming keyboards, but the BlackWidow V3 Pro is wireless while the Huntsman V2 is wired. It all works seamlessly except you have to install the ability to use macros into Razer Synapse before being able to use macros, even on-the-fly ones. The keyboard’s smaller layout isn’t quite as game-friendly as something truly small like the Razer Huntsman Mini or the BlackWidow V3 Mini, or Corsair’s K65 RGB Mini, but it’s miles better than a full-size keyboard due to the added mouse space. It’s fully programmable with on-the-fly Macro recording, has Hypershift capability that lets you have secondary functionality for every key on the keyboard and about as much RGB customization as a gamer could want.I can hardly begin to describe it, as there are few switches I’ve encountered that offer a similar smoothness in their travel.

I can only speculate that the IC manufacturer threw these in to get the bid, and it does the job of preventing me (and competitors) from easily identifying these chips. The original Razer Huntsman was Razer’s first attempt at a no-nonsense enthusiast gaming keyboard, and although it had blazingly fast optical switches and a solid build — it was also one of the loudest keyboards I’ve ever allowed in my house. While it is a small gripe, you can find other TKL keyboards out there that still manage to squeeze them in, such as the aforementioned Logitech. After receiving community feedback, we investigated the latency results for this keyboard and found our original displayed results were missing data points. Also included with the Huntsman V2 TKL — and this is arguably the biggest upgrade from the original — is a pleather wrist rest.
