-looks genuine nice-responsive -feels cheaply made-loud when pressing keyboards-actual light and feels like it'll break genuine straightforward Just received this in the mail right now, bought this razer to go along w/ my new mamba. Initially impression when I opened it was "wow, this it looks good" till I in fact grabbed it. This feels actual flimsy and light, feels all plasticky, this feel truly inexpensive compared to the logitech I had, and keys are loud when you press them...Just feels seriously cheaply made imo; returning this back and going back to logitech

Great keyboard, it's a tad smaller sized than I expected, but it looks and feels good, and the size is excellent too from what I believed would be a monstrous deluxe keyboard. The packaging was limited, and the really feel of the keys is nice and low. Excellent price tag as well. The easy cleaning of the keyboard itself from dust and such. You can just grab a towel or napkin and wipe it down, and all stains/smudges will come appropriate off. :) Hope this aids future purchasers, I recommend. Shipped within three days time. Even though the look is nice, with the gloss finish...It smudges fairly effortlessly. Also a pro as talked about above for uncomplicated cleaning. I just took a appear at the media touch keys at the best correct and saw my fingerprints, but then I took a microfibre cloth and wiped it down, now all gone. Shipping is murder to Canadians...a ฽ keyboard comes down to ๜ with taxes and shipping.

Nice lookCool logoLow-cost gaming keyboard Sort of lightkeys are fairly noisyLike individuals stated, the LED lights are kind of bright but is that really an issue? Just colour over it with a marker if it's that annoying Keyboards aren't typically "too" important for gaming, so I'd advocate getting this since its low-cost and putting much more cash into a gaming mouse instead.

Improves your game play more than typical keyboards. Appears great and I appreciate becoming capable to handle Itunes from the dashboard whilst playing. Also, the wrist guard performs good in particular if you unscrew it and just let it float. Looks fantastic and is compact in size. None Yet another quality razer product. I can't realize the bashing Razer gets right here, but this solution is unmatched by any other manufacturer in quality and value. This is a excellent keyboard for ุ if you're a gamer. It will improve your game.Get IT!!

I enjoy the style of the keyboard and the layout of the keys Ɠ wide, 2 high for the insert and delete key group). The anti-ghosting gaming cluster is awesome as properly. The cluster consists of far more than just the WASD keys, most of the keys about have anti-ghosting as properly. The media keys in the upper corner are actual buttons, so there are no sensitivity problems. My huge hands do not really feel as cramped with a standard keyboard. The housing about the keys does smudge with fingerprints, but it does clean up easily. I am nonetheless studying to sort on it (though I haven't used it daily).

Feels excellent, fantastic crucial customizing Genuinely light, feels fairly cheep but not terrible. Value is a small a lot, possibly if it was 10 bucks cheaper. If its dark then your out of luck, would be better and far more worth it if they keys had been illuminated.

Personally, this keyboard varieties smoothly, and the key size fits just fine. Cost, rather higher class, however did not really feel like the cost reflects the potential. Immediately after all, it is just a keyboard Excellent luck on UPS, they throw boxes about like there is no tomorrow. It is easy to see, just take a appear at the edge of the box.

Hand rest. Exceptional crucial feedback and response. Media keys in the upper appropriate corner, buttons you can push. Operates nicely for me considering I use Winamp and the keys operate with Winamp. You open the driver handle and can select in between Winamp, Windows Media Player, True Player, and iTunes for which program the keys will operate with. Media player keys do not function with ALL media players. Only a pick few.I'll have to adjust to the keys since they are far more flat vs. the far more common 10$ keyboard you get at a shop. I just got the keyboard currently, so as far as a down the road view, I'm not able to give it appropriate now. But, as somebody who just got the keyboard nowadays, it seems exquisite. It's not amazingly fancy, it doesn't have back lit keys or a row of macro keys on the side. But what it does have is what a fantastic gamer wants out of a keyboard. Excellent tactile response. Anti-Ghosting for WASD for FPS. I play ESDF with WoW so the AG with WASG isn't that massive of a deal, but I do play a tiny Counter-Strike so it'll be nice when I do play that.

I really like the standard layout of the keys, no useless macro keys. Media keys are in a tiny condensed area above the numpad and not spread across the prime of the keyboard, so the keyboard keeps a normal size. Keys form with a soft click (in a great way). LED's are a ridiculously vibrant white.. I imply terribly vibrant. If not for the annoyingly, distractingly bright LED's this would been a four-five egger. The vibrant LED's give it the appear of a cheap keyboard that is trying to sell itself with flashy LED's. (This is not the case, it is a great keyboard, it just has overly bright LED's) Glossy finish smudges effortlessly; I would have preferred the outline of the keyboard have the exact same look as the palm rest. It's a bit high priced compared to other gaming keyboards that offer the exact same or more features for the similar price. When typing on the decrease keys, if I scoot my suitable hand across the palm rest to attain other keys, my palm scratches against the corners of the notches cut out of the bottom-middle of the palm rest. They shouldn't have reduce that out. I don't like the circular dent put in the Windows keys. The only texture I want to feel on any keys are the modest bumps on 'F' and 'J.' Would rather have a tiny switch on the prime/left/right side (or underneath) of the keyboard to allow/disable the Windows keys than the important combination this keyboard uses. Would have preferred light up keys, but yeah, I know, that's the Lycosa. This keyboard must be ฮ, and the Lycosa โ, thinking about the features they supply. We're supposed to spend ุ USD a lot more for light up keys and USB/Audio jacks on the keyboard?

-Very good important response, feels equivalent to laptop style of keys.-Full keyboard-The backslash important and backspace important are not shrunk to make room for a larger enter important.-Capacity to turn off Windows crucial It isn't cost-free... All round an remarkable keyboard. I figured I would will need to get rid of the wrist guard, but it performs perfectly with how the keyboard sits low, which tends to make it work nicely. The LED lighting for the lock indicators are not excessively bright, but let you know that they are active. A great keyboard for the cost.

Fantastic gaming keyboard, the price is unbeatable for a higher excellent gamingkeyboard like this. The board itself is nicely layed out under no circumstances discover myself straing throughout gameplay. Persons say the board is easy but that a explanation to get it, practically nothing that cna go incorrect. The multimedia show is a bit finicky, the buttons operate fine but are challenging to press. Do not spill soft drinks on your keyboard! Even though I'd say that it makes keyboard even mroe awesome getting in a position to sruvive a spill and nonetheless come out game worthy.

I owned a Lycosa for 2 years and loved it to death. Sadly, I snapped space bar in two following getting bhopped about 2000 hours in gaming. I was on the fence about the arctosa because I didn't know if it would be the lycosa with no the led backlit keys and jacks. It was. I was certainly. I got the gaming +++'s with no the useless mic/headphone jacks or usb 1. ports. I miss the lighted keys of the lycosa, but could use 2 of these for the cost of one particular of them.I also miss the grip coating on the lycosa keys.So actually I have no complaints that are viable when I bought a seriously great gaming keyboard for ุ

Well, I had purchased this following owning a Razer Lycosa for the previous two years pondering this is the similar keyboard only without having usb ports and mic/headphone jacks. I was wrong about that. Though it's 1000Mhz poling it does not have lighted keys and more importantly the keys are not the same low profile laptop style keys of the lycosa. I miss obtaining them brief travel strokes in gaming. That becoming said this is an awesome keyboard none the significantly less. I'm not considerably of a scripter simply because I play fps and salute all-natural movement Ƒ crucial 1 command), but I have the capability to program all my keys in the lightweight drivers I love to hate from razer. None really. For ุ I couldn't be happier. I actually wish there was a stripped down version of the lycosa. I imply who on this earth desires a usb 1. port on their keyboard.... or bypass their audio card for it's jacks. I believed I was finding it with this, but no it's a bit different really feel with the taller keys.

I love the low profile keys (laptop style keyboard). Macro potential for any crucial. Able to switch profiles on the fly. Gaming mode disables windows important. Excellent create good quality. Media keys can be valuable. Media keys don't work on my itunes for some purpose unless it's the existing window in concentrate which defeats the purpose considering that I wanted to be in a position to game and listen to music at the similar time while possessing handle more than itunes in game. They work properly with the other supported players though. Pricey, this keyboard is good but shouldn't be above ฮ.The lights for the lock keys are as well bright. If you're like me and want a low profile laptop like keyboard for your desktop then this is fairly much the best option accessible as there aren't several fantastic options.

- appears awesome- media control (play, pause, cease, next song, mute, etc...)- application for macroing keys- keys are quite responsive 1ms- wrist rest- half the cost of the lycosa which only adds essential lighting (seriously it's not excellent to play in the dark) - feels cheap, sad to say- keys are loud to press- low profile laptop keys- no lighting of keys i guess waiting to see what other keyboards razer comes out with in the future, this a single will do for now.

Sleek.This keyboard has multimedia buttons that function well. On the fly pause if you want to quit your movie or music.Dark clean finish.Excellent Value/quality on this keyboard.The buttons feel soft, practically like the Logitech Dinivo.Gaming is far better than ever, from my final keyboard. Which was a stock Sony Viao keyboard, from the late cretaceous period. Playing Left 4 Dead appears more smooth and mellowed out. Also , *please don't flame me for this* Gunz ought to be far more straightforward on the fingers when performing these double butterflies or tri butterflies. Perhaps a quad butterfly. I'm not also use to the buttons on this factor. The keys are not as popped up like my old keyboard. So I have a tendency to hit the wrong keys when I am typing. I possibly created serveral although I am typing this evaluation proper now. Other than that, it is a wonderful keyboard.If you program to use the multimedia buttons, it only works with Windows Media Player, iTunes, Winamp, and Realplayer. I attempted to use it on VLC, but it does not work. They must make it enabled for it. I would of almost certainly rated this 4 stars and a half if they had that selection. The frame is glossy, meaning it will leave fingerprints, smears, and that would just look horrid to look at. If you do not thoughts that, then get it.The stands on the keyboard do not have rubber below them. So it will be much easier to move it about if they are popped up.

Very nicely made keyboard, from its style to its really feel. The media keys are placed more than the quantity pad which in fact functions far better then the keyboards that have them more than the function keys. The lights indicating whether caps lock/ num lock/ or scroll lock are white and vibrant, which is a good alter from barely lit green pin holes. The "Game Mode" allowing you to turn the windows crucial off by holding the razer symbol (in the middle of the media keys) and the windows important is wonderful due to the fact it does get in the way. Wrist rest is also a great function. The way the keys are printed looks like they will at some point fade or scratch off (I've been intentionally rubbing/ scratching keys to see just how effortless it would be to ruin them and I'm pleased to say they nevertheless appear like new). I seriously wish they utilised the rubber keys from the Lycosa. Yet another downside is the "shininess" which smudges, but unless you like touching every thing other then the keys its not a dilemma. Will be getting the Lycosa next (not mirror) and for these of you familiar with holding both shift keys and typing "the speedy brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" this is how the keyboard does:HE QUIC BROWN OX UMPED More than HE AZ DOG

It replaces my old Logitech keyboard..It's fairly High Gloss, good feel to it, and my initial razor keyboard.. It's not illuminated :{ I may possibly've gotten the LogitechG-15 but I decided on some thing less costly, so I went for this and it worked out excellent, no broken keys besides the "a" button which was stuck often, not it appears to be fixed mainly because I press so substantially on it..

Slim profileMedia Keys operate effectivelyActually like the ablility to disable the windows essential Cap/Num/Scroll lock keys are vibrant as hellWould have liked a USB port someplace on it, but that's nitpicking Bought this keyboard since the a single I intended to acquire had sold out, this was the closest 'slim' keyboard to what I had picked out. I've been typing on a laptop for years and I like the feel of the keys, and this seems just about identical to me.I didn't get this keyboard for its macro ability, so I can't comment on that.Solid keyboard for the price, and looks pretty good also.
