Razer BlackWidow TE Chroma v2 TKL Tenkeyless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard: Yellow Key Switches, Linear & Silent, Chroma RGB Lighting, Magnetic Wrist Rest, Programmable Macros, Classic Black

Really superb all around keyboard. Price is great (I got it at $60), design is clean and not too in your face, which is welcome from Razer, build quality is solid, and quite pleased with the switches. The lettering looks really clean on the keyboard, and the backlighting is just right, not too bright or soft. Keyboard material, albeit seeming to be mostly plastic, still has a nice texture and premium feel to it. These Razer orange switches (brown equivalent) are wonderful and have made a noticeable difference for me when typing, both as a gamer and as a programmer. They are certainly an outright upgrade from the Outemu reds I had been using at my desk at home previously (I liked the smooth action but found I made a lot of mistakes with the low actuation force of the red switches), and I'll give them a slight edge in terms of personal preference for the softer switch action of the brown switch as opposed to the Cherry MX Blue switches I have in my keyboard at the office (currently not seeing much use, obviously). I am not ultra-sensitive to switch quality, I just prefer a keyboard with clean action and quality build, and after finally having given this style of switch a try I don't think I can go back. My only two *very minor* gripes are these: 1. Aesthetic from the side of the keyboard is a bit strange. The keycaps are very short in height and so the components underneath each key are visible, including the switch+switch housing. Seems like that's the aesthetic they're going for, just not my personal taste, and it's unnoticeable from above, which is where I'm mostly seeing the keyboard from anyway. 2. Keyboard deck warped ever so slightly at one point so that it wasn't sitting flush with the desk. Not sure if this will resurface in the future, but I was able to unwarp it using raw man power (aka a very light bend back in the correct direction) and it has been sitting fine for over a week since I noticed the issue. These are not deal breakers in the slightest, just for others to be aware of when purchasing. Still love the keyboard, and certainly not worth subtracting a star.

I’ve been loving this keyboard so far. You can customize each key to do whatever you want, and you can also enable snap-tap if that’s something you’re interested in. The keys feel very nice and sound amazing. And if you want them to feel a little less clacky, they include a tiny bag of orange o-rings to suppress that clicky sound. I play a lot of rhythm games, which means I am a little aggressive when it comes to pressing the keys. This keyboard doesn’t have any signs of use so far though. The build quality is great. It comes with, what I’m guessing, is an aluminum top which just looks and feels much better than regular old plastic. It connects using a micro-USB to USB-A, which is easily compatible with pretty much any PC or laptop you can buy. It doesn’t take up a lot of space on my desk. If you don’t use the number pad then I do recommend getting TKL so it takes up a lot less space so you have more too on your desk.

So, unlike a lot of other people on here, I'm just going to say this keyboard is perfect for me so far. Yeah, if you get a defective product from ANYWHERE, you send it back and get a new one. When you buy electronics of any type you do have a risk of not receiving a flawless one, yes. Welcome to technology. Anyways, I got this keyboard with the orange switches and I love them. My last keyboard was a K65 LUX RGB which has a similar form factor and used Cherry MX Reds. These Razer Orange keys have a bump before they're fully pressed down which gives a nice amount of feedback while typing or gaming. The sound is very.. tight and feels mostly contained within the keyboard itself. The version with orange switches is not even remotely loud compared to a lot of other switches, most of the noise is just the keys bottoming out above the faceplate (which I believe is also metal.) Very nice sound without being overbearing. Lighting? Perfect if the software works. I have a Lancehead mouse and I organized these on the virtual table on Chroma Studio to talk to each other and it works flawlessly with whatever color design or scheme you want. Doesn't feel like I've ever missed any keys registering and the MAGNETIC wrist rest is absolutely incredible. If you have very, very big hands you may not be able to comfortably use it but I feel that goes for most keyboards. Probably shouldn't get a TKL in that case. Build feels nice, a little heavy, some plastic, some metal. Detachable cable is braided, and.. detachable. Quickly recognized and working after plugged in. I got this for $70 on sale which is an unbelievable deal and I probably should have bought more than one. I would not pay more than 100 or 120 at the most though.. at that point you might get into what COULD be slightly more premium things. Different market. If it's around 100 get it. It puts letters on a screen. (Edit: June 2025 and I am still using this keyboard. Absolutely perfect. Shame they got rid of the orange switches.)

Muy buen teclado, sus tacto es ideal, al igual que el peso de las keycups y los switches de razer, además el respaldo para la mano lo vuelve increíble siento que no podría usar un teclado si esto desde ahora, su gama de colores y como se ven es espectacular manejado fácilmente con un software muy intuitivo, un teclado muy cómodo y divertido de usar, 100% recomendado para todo tipo de juegos, escritura y manejo en general de la computadora.

¿Qué opino de este teclado? En pocas palabras es un teclado de lo tiene todo en excelencia, me gusta su estética, me gusta su tacto de switches (yellow switches), el tiempo de respuesta, la profundidad de desplazamiento, la sensación totalmente limpia y satisfactoria de escritura, el reposamuñecas es tan cómodo y práctico con que sea removible con magnetismo, es un teclado elegante con la ventaja gamer, por el precio que lo conseguí (1600$ pesos mexicanos) es la mejor compra en cuanto a periféricos que he hecho, este teclado es perfecto en todo sentido, su brillo RGB es bastante potente, el switch es excelente y sus keycaps son suaves, no es muy ruidoso si buscas un teclado discreto en cuanto a sonido al escribir se refiere. Su construcción y materiales son bastantes robustos, me da la sensación de que me durará 4 años, y eso sólo para tener que cambiarle las keycaps por unas de PBT doble inyección del mismo Razer quizá. Es en mi opinión un teclado 3B y un EndGame. Con este teclado puedes finalizar la búsqueda de otro.

My previous keyboard was a Razer DeathStalker for over 5 years, and today I switched to the BlackWidow Tournament Edition with orange switches, and I have to say that I'm impressed. The difference is huge going from a chiclet keyboard to a mechanical keyboard with such craftsmanship.

Too small

Honestly the best keyboard I have bought all round good
