Pros & Cons

Pros

It's surprising how many bells and whistles this comes with. For what it is right now, it's a good app. It does what a darn keyboard is suppose to do.

The keyboard has clicky green switches that are great for gaming. The keys are not of the fancy double cap variety but sit and feel very solid. There's a circle of plastic around the x-shaped slot, so they sit on top of the switches extra firm.

The app for it (call synapse. The app lets you set up macros and key binds for almost anything. For gaming, it's all about response time and key pressure. I miss having dedicated macro keys.



Cons

For a huge and long-standing company like razer, it's simply inexcusable. It is a scam company that somehow became a gamer meme.

Keycaps are easy to remove, but taking apart the board to clean is a nuisance. If the software bugs out or stalls, the kb is so software driven that the keys/features can lag out for several full seconds before dumping the input all at once. This keyb...  Read More

Only way to fix it is to unplug and plug back in the keyboard. Takes a really long time to install. I have to un plug this thing at least twice a week to get it to work properly.

The synapse software that works with the keyboard causes a key spamming issue that makes it unusable. If you don't mind not using synapse then it's all right.

Software is buggy. There are threads on the razer insider forum, where razer managers replied with ostensible and unjustifiable reasoning for not making lighting onboard. The core of it out of the box was not even qc'ed enough to pass basic testing.

    We don’t use it as gaming keyboard just for daily basics


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The volume wheel does not work properly and almost appears to be broken


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It skips and wont turn up or down the volume no matter how you turn it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Sometimes the volume will randomly increase to 100 for no apparent reason you must move the wheel several times to unstick it and then lower the volume in your operating system


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Not a gamer i just wanted a good keyboard


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    After 6 months the volume knob broke without even using it and after almost 2 years the “d” keycap is starting to die


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Maybe somehow this is some crazy marketing technique to highlight the razorness of the product but more likely there is some issue with the led or the keycap


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The issue is definitely a minor one but i figured i would share my experience with it
