    "Flawless Keyboard! Perfect Lighting! Excellent Macro Features!"

    by Shisouka on July 2, 2008

    Pros: Great key feel and responce, slim profile, nice to have the extra USB and audio ports.

    Cons: None that I've found. If I had to say something negative, they could have made the spacebar a bit quieter.

    Summary: This is a great keyboard. Don't listen to the CNET guy when he says that the lighting isn't bright enough. I've opened the blinds for full sunlight and turned on the room lights and I can see the keys just fine! They illuminate very well in lighted conditions and are superb in a dark room / LAN Party environment. In fact, when I first purchased it, I was worried that the keys were going to be too bright and blind me at night and annoy me during the day. So I was very happy to find out that Razor had managed to choose the perfect illumination level.

    The space key is a little clunky / is nosier than I would like, but not any worse than your standard keyboard. Not sure the WSAD only illumination is really that great, but they do show up extra bright when you select that mode. I shelled out the $70 because I can't stand most of the keyboards that Microsoft, Logitech, Saitek, or Kensington are putting out (actually, I haven't found one I like in the last few years). Most keyboard manufacturers have jumped on the "lowered arrow keys" bandwagon. I much prefer them to be inline with the Ctrl and 0/Ins keys. Also, the feel of this keyboard is excellent; both with the rubberized keys and key responsiveness. Most keyboards are so clunky an require too firm a press that they can't keep up with my typing speeds. So for $70, this was a bargain for me. I'll probably buy a few more just incase Razor stop making them. When I find a keyboard I like, it's good to have enough to last until I find another keyboard I like...
