The best keyboard on this size, battery is great for something that small, and you can charge it while using it, it’s lightweight and easy to carry around, the lights on this thing are very cool because it’s white you can have a nice looking setup

This Razer DeathStalker V2 keyboard punches above its profile. I’ve been using the Razer DeathStalker V2 in the white finish for several months. I’m very impressed. This keyboard stand outs. The low‑profile design is fantastic. The keys sit lower than many keyboards. The all white finish gives it the perfect look for the esthetic I was looking for. Beyond the white keyboard, the full RGB backlighting provides bright lighting and a glow that is beautiful and vibrant. I absolutely love this feature. This function can be personalized. The build is high quality. Razor customer service was helpful, if not slightly inconvenient when my initial keyboard stopped working. The reps were helpful and courteous. Having to document issues in a separate portal or risk not seeing replies, was annoying if I am being honest. All-in-all I am happynwith my purchase.

Update: I discovered 2 ways to incrementally increase the wireless range on the replacement keyboard (didn’t work on the first one). First, use separate dongle for the keyboard & mouse (Razer allows them to share a dongle, which is how I initially setup the replacement). Second, use the included USB cable and adapter to move the dongle several inches from the PC (in any direction). Now, the keyboard only occasionally ignores a keypress from my preferred location. It's not ideal, but quite usable. I'll be keeping this one, and experimenting further for ways to reduce what appears to be an issue of interference. Original: The look and feel of the keyboard is very nice. I use it in my family room from the sofa and require wireless connectivity. My first DSv2 had such limited wireless range that I had to be within about 3 ft of my PC to use it (Bluetooth range was a little better). This obviously was way below spec. The Basilisk V3 Pro mouse, and an old Logitech K830 Bluetooth keyboard work just fine from anywhere in the room. After going through lengthy Razer support, they endorsed a return. So I got another DSv2. The range is better. I can now sit on the near side of my sofa and use it. However, it is unusable from my preferred far end of sofa. I haven't decided if I'll return this one too and keep using my old K830, or change my playing habits. In short, I do not recommend this keyboard for living room TV use, only for desktop use where the keyboard is within cable distance from the PC. And then, you might as well just get the wired version. Wireless range is not at all an issue for the Razer Bv3Pro mouse, which maybe uses different radio hardware or power settings.

I use the Razer DeathStalker V2 Pro Wireless Gaming Keyboard extensively, not just for gaming but for all my daily activities at work and at home. It's a standout for being considerably quieter than other mechanical keyboards, which is a huge plus for me. The keys offer a soft yet firm response which is perfect for both typing and gaming - they're easy to press but still provide enough resistance to avoid accidental keystrokes. The build quality is top-notch, solid and durable. My only wish is that Razer had included forward and backward buttons next to the pause and volume wheel for easier music and video control. Despite this, I'm very satisfied with the keyboard overall. Great job, Razer!

Cons: 1. Literally not one single thing of this keyboard is similar to the Original Deathstalker, they just took the name thinking people would think a Low-Profile keyboard is the "same" as a Chiclet one. Clearly whoever developed this keyboard didn't even look at the original Deathstalker, they come from the big fat junk keys keyboards, and then THINK they've made something good or equivalent. Well, they didn't. 2. Not a Chiclet Keyboard...! Those of us who liked the v1 DeathStalker primarily like it because it's a Chiclet keyboard. - Short Key Travel - Flat Keys - Tactile Response. In other words, the v1 was perfect for those of us who TYPE, but also wanted a Gaming Keyboard. However, it wasn't "perfect" because we also wanted a Mechanical/Optical version. 3. Key Travel is too great. This contributes to causing Typing mistakes. 4. Activation of the Optical switch was TOO SHORT. In other words, it's pretty much at the TOP of the keypress, and you end up pressing the keys far further still. This also causes Typing mistakes. 5. The "design" of the keys causes your fingers to "catch" on the keys (while this doesn't occur with the FLAT Chiclet keys), and with the optical switch being so high, this again also causes typing mistakes, cause you brush the pokey "edges" of the keys and end up causing a keypress to occur that you didn't intend to make. 6. Keys are all "exposed"... If you look at the v1 DeathStalker you'll see the "border" of the keyboard actually goes to the "bottom" of the keys. This protects the keys and makes it more nice and comfortable to use. See the pic for how the v2 could have been done. 7. No Hand/Wrist Rest... They should have made one, one of Razer's nice soft hand rests specifically for the DeathStalker which is actually one of the "improvements" we wanted for the v1 DeathStalker, a SOFT hand rest instead of the hard one, one that "attaches" with a Magnet and is the SAME LEVEL as the keyboard. I tried to buy one of their "separately sold" hand rests and it was just "too high". Though, my preference likely would have been the handrest to be "part" of the keyboard itself like the v1's is, but having a soft one instead, because it's nice when "moving" the keyboard, which is something I often do, especially to eat, that it's all "one piece" instead of having two pieces to move with the keyboard as a separate hand rest would cause. Pros: 1. Like having the Wireless option 2. Like having all the Multiple Wireless and Bluetooth connections ability. 3. Like the Volume Scroll Wheel and Play Button. Though, not 100% sure it works perfectly? When I very first tried it it did the wrong things. Never had an issue with the FN Keypress buttons. Though, maybe that was just a bug fluke, think I plugged it into my monitor hub and it didn't work right? Not sure. But, I would rather have a 100% working volume controller if there are issues with some Video players? Changes that should be made: 1. Give us a Chiclet Keyboard, designed like the original DeathStalker but fixing all the above Cons and adding the above Pros. I don't care if it's a differently named keyboard, I just NEED a Chicklet Keyboard that's Mechanical/Optical and with all the above improvements and new features. THIS is what we were wanting in v2 of the DeathStalker, NOT a completely different keyboard. 2. If you choose to keep the Low-Profile ONLY, then please just improve it according to the above issues. - Make the keyboard Body FLUSH with the bottom of the keys so they aren't exposed per the attached pics as an example. See v1. Though I understand the main key section wouldn't have the space for that. - Shorten the Key Travel. - Increase the Activation Travel of the Optical, closer to the bottom, not so High. - If the above two things were fixed, the "pokey edges" of the keys might not be as much of an issue. - Add the Hand Rest to the Keyboard, a SOFT one preferable still attached, though I could live with a properly fitted "attachable" one. The separate ones you buy are just TOO HIGH. So, I don't know if doing the above would make me want to use this keyboard still... I STILL might need a "Chicklet" version, but it "might" work. Even a Chiclet Low-Profile one might work? I don't know, would need to test. Razer should have made the original DeathStalker, improved as I've indicated. If they wanted to steal Logitech's keyboard and improve on it, they should have named it something else. I get why they did, to sound cooler, thinking the Low-Profile would be the most superior keyboard, but it's NOT... I have nothing against this keyboard existing... but I'm very unhappy Razer just shafted us DeathStalker users who've been WAITING for a long time now for an improved keyboard like this one, but in the spirit of the original. Literally nobody makes a Chicklet Mechanical/Optical Gaming Keyboard.... What is the problem here with satisfying the needs of your customers? The Big Fat Key keyboards are literally UNUSABLE for some of us... Razer, I've now returned TWO of your keyboards, this one and the Ornata, because they were unusable for me. To be fair though, If I was forced to, I could use this one, cause low-profile is as least better than the lower keys of the Ornata, but still, it FAILS the needs of us who NEED Chiclet... ​​​​​​​Thank you.

Generally looking good, the backlighting adds a touch of excitement. But battery not last longer. Low profile is good but you may feel pain for long use

The deathstalker v2 pro is an excellent keyboard. The keycaps have a finish that makes them feel incredibly non-slippery, which can almost feel annoying sometimes if you're the type to drag your fingers across the key caps. Overall, the keyboard feels extremely durable and the switches feel incredibly stable. I don't know a better way to put it. The keystrokes feel extremely consistent, and the keyboard has absolutely no latency that is perceivable. Is this worth the asking price? That depends. The feature set of this keyboard is the reason I bought it. Optical switches, low profile, 2.4ghz wireless or bluetooth, and the dongle pairs with up to two devices (I'm using the viper v2 pro). I'm surprised more people aren't talking about this keyboard.

Razer DeathStalker V2 Pro is a great keyboard, when it works. The quiet and quick action of the keys is fabulous but the main issue is the Bluetooth, which eventually just fails. I like the keyboard and I wish it would work, but it had to be returned because of the Bluetooth connectivity issues I experienced. I first got a BlackWidow V3 Pro, but that was also returned because the Bluetooth failed. Razer keyboards seems to have weak Bluetooth component somewhere, which eventually fails.

The battery in the keyboard stopped charging a little after a month of owning the keyboard, I can still use it wired, which is mostly how I use it. I contacted Razer, and they've been very good to deal with, any product can have issues, if the company looks after you all is good. In this case, Razer has given me confidence in buying future products from them.
