Thanks for the SUPPORT everybodayyy!! Wasabi Channel has hit 85 Subscribers! this is amazing!!
Gained another sub!
video title: not great, but i like it. the video: great, i like it, great, great, great, awesome
🤣
I thought I was watching somebody who had at least 50k subs but seeing that you have less than 800 AS WELL as had this be the video who got you to 100 you are really about to explode the quality of the video really shocked me good job bro youre gonna make it
Haha surprise! *wild 800 sub youtuber appeared!* Thanks for dropping by and for your kind words too. It's very motivating to read such things while i'm working on content and production through the night 😅🙏
i love the look of confusion and pain on your face while you did the sound test 🤣 awesome video
🥲+🫨+🫠
you deserve way more subs
it have 2-in-1 keys that, depending on the press, perform one function or another, such as wooting or apex?
Can you do a review comparing the steel series apex pro and the Razor huntsman V3. If you have any personal experience with both, which do you prefer for analog like features?
I would be sure to do a review on that keyboard when I get one and work on a comparison video against the Huntsman V3! I honestly do not use the analog features on my Huntsman V3 because none of the games that I play require such a feature and for racing/ flight / fight games, I would use a controller 😅
wtf is that cmaera at 3:50 on the top right lol made my day lol
What mouse where you using?
Thanks!
i get a grinding feeling when i click spacebar on the sides, stabilizers suck, keys wobble a lot, sound is bad, but yeah rapid trigger is good. I'm refunding it tho cause qc is not very good at least on my unit
That's unfortunate to hear! I would be quite upset myself if I get a unit that isn't close to perfect at those prices. I hope that your next keyboard works out well.
Damn good video quality just like optimus tech, sometimes u look too much away from the camera maybe reading your script? anyway love your vid, but we still need a comparison video of this v3 keyboard against wooting 60he+
can you set differnt actuation points for differnt keys, like on the wooting?
Yeap you can! :)
Good Reviews
Glad you like them! thank you so much my friend!
what a wonderfoul video, i like everything.
Thank you so much! This was one of my first ever reviews haha! I've been working out the structure of my keyboard reviews so the next KB review will be a little different✌️😊
As much as I've had my own issues with Razer, I have always had a lot of respect and admiration for their aesthetics. I think they're on the right track with this board. Main thing I'd like to see improvement in their boards is the sound and acoustics.
Good review😊
Thank you! I will continue to work on improving 😊
@@wasabitech Thanks to Your honest review i have decided not to go with Huntsman V3 pro but with Razer BlackWidow V4 75% 👌🏻👌🏻
@@PCSklejka My pleasure 😊 There is a black and a white version available for the BlackWidow 75%! Slight difference in price between the two colour options but choose which you feel that you will prefer and not for the price if that's possible :) Enjoy!!
@@wasabitech Thanks,money is no object but the black will suit me better with my desk.Will You have the review of Razer BlackWidow V4 75% by any chance? 😉Good luck with the channel 👌🏻👌🏻
@@PCSklejka I will someday when I have some money to spend 😅. Thank for your kind words and Happy Gaming :))
Would you choose this over the Apex Pro? I was going to buy the Apex but there have been so many bugs with it recently so I decided against it
Hello!! I have not experienced the Apex Pro in game yet. When I did check out one at the store, the only thing that bothered me was the sound of the spacebar but that could have just been the display unit. Other than that, I have heard many good things about the Apex Pro 2023! Between this and the Apex, functionality is the same (Rapid trigger, Adjustable actuation...) just that one is using Analog Optical Switches and the other has Hall Effect Magnetic Switches. Performance-wise with my experience between these two types of tech, I would not say there is much of a difference. What I like about the Huntsman V3 Pro TKL switches (Which I should have mentioned in my review) is that there is hardly any stem wobble and I like how the 40g actuation force feels. Gives me a lot of control when peeking or strafing 😊 As always Razer's software is ehhhhhh mmmm mehhhhh. But it works for me :)
@@wasabitech Okay thank you!
Get the apex pro, i got the tkl and having the actuation on the keyboard screen is sick af. The keys are nice, light and smooth. It'll make you laugh whenever you hear someone go, "i lubed my switches" smooth. Only thing else i could ask for is getting rid of the wires. Which also exists now 😩😩😩
@@firellio070 I would in a heartbeat but I’ve seen so many people having issues with them where the keyboard just spams keys and when they ask steelseries support they just say buy a new one or give you a command to do that fixes your keyboard for only a small amount of time I don’t know if this is still happening but I don’t want to risk it and go through the trouble of re buying
@@Aquarius4426 what keyboard are using now,?
What is the Analog WASD feature do?
That's a feature that creates the analog input effect from what you would observe when moving a controller thumbstick :)
is it just me or all switches that support rapid trigger whether optical on this keyboard or lekker on the wooting 60he all sound like ass? its like a loose bundle of plastic rattle
It's not just you! many people find that they do sound like ass 😅 With the tech now, its a choice between "good sound and feel" and "gaming performance and functions". But i'm sure someone will close the gap between the two soon!
Meanwhile boog75 😶
lacks customizability, probably proprietary TKL, also probably not as good of resolution as hall effect sensors, and probably while 8k polling, not 8k scanning, which is an issue. But yeah this is a really good performance board I agree!
Bought this and found a bunch of issues with the Synapse integration e.g. windows key frequently double types when synapse open. Really poorly put together software. Definitely not worth the price, very poor effort from razer. Trying to get a refund from razer support now - like getting blood out of stone.
Thats unfortunate to hear that you are having issues with yours.. I'd be very frustrated myself if that were to happen to me. I'm sure you have already updated Synapse and the firmware of the keyboard. If so, Windows key double typing sounds rather strange... I hope they get back to you asap!
Would the huntsman v2 be a good alternative based on budget
Hello!!! Are you talking about the Huntsman V2 Analog or the Optical (Reds)? Huntsman V2 keyboards do not have Rapid trigger and adjustable actuation but if that is not important, and if it has to be a Huntsman Keyboard, I personally would pick the Huntsman V2 with Optical Red switches. For a keyboard with Adjustable actuation and Rapid trigger (on a budget), the DrunkDeer A75 has been getting quite a lot of attention :)
@@wasabitech it is indeed the optical red and thank you for the reply need to narrow down my keyboard for Christmas thank you!
what do u think about razer pro type ultra, i love design, but unfortanetly i have razer cobra pro is black mouse and black mouse + white keyboard is bad. But! i love design of razer pro type ultra more than razer hunstman v3 pro ;(@@wasabitech
@@offtheday2316 they are both in very different categories in the Razer Product range! I think it’s perfectly fine to pick a keyboard because you like the look of it and I understand your dilemma color matching. My brother has a Pro type ultra and It does look good in person! Typing feel is ok, it’ll be perfectly fine for general use and ofcourse the lack of Rapid Trigger or Adjustable Actuation won’t stop you from using it to play games. I think that if you wanna stick with Razer and have a black pairing on your setup, you should consider the BlackWidow V4 pro or the 75%! Those have the RGB’s that will look great together with your Cobra :)
thank you for your time, I'm really looking at the difference between black widow v4 pro and hunstman v3 pro, to be honest I've never used mechanical keyboards in my life and I'm trying to figure out what their difference is, I couldn't find a comparison video I also wanted to say that I'm crazy about the razer cobra pro mouse, maybe if they had a white version, I would definitely take another one of the same mouse@@wasabitech right now i use Ornata v3 , it looks good, but my friend told me mechanical is better
can you replace the keycaps on this keyboard?
You can! But for the best fit I would stick to keycaps that come from Razer because not every keycap set would fit perfectly on Razer keyboards.
currently on an old huntsman tournament tkl... the blackwidow v4 looks so nice and being hotswap but then the new optical switches in this new hunstman looks good but then that wrist rest and other bits seem way less quality..
The wrist rest on the Huntsman V3 doesn't feel as good as it should have been with the price. If Rapid trigger and adjustable actuation is something you can pass on, then the BlackWidow 75% will be great for you! Not forgetting that it comes with a wrist rest too (quite a cushy one) and you can explore and experiment with a ton of switches you can find out there! and it has 8000 Hz wired polling rate as well. If that is something that you prefer your keyboard to have.
razer kinda shit the bed on pricing for this, the tkl is $40 more expensive than the apex pro tkl and the mini is $10 more than the wooting....unless you're deep into the razer ecosystem or availability is an issue i don't see why anyone would pick the huntsmanv3 line over what's already out there
The pricing is rather outrageous and I agree that there are many options available for a little less. You're completely right on those two points about why one would pick the Huntsman V3 Line over something else! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this 😃
I have steelseries apex pro tkl 2023 i love it but after stop using it for 1 month the battery is exhausted and keyboard dead cant start it again. I just order this razer will see how its work
did you ever get the keyboard? are you still using it?
@@sooperfy I returned it to the store(steelseries) razer was to clicky and I back it also :) and here i get keychron q7 pro and im happy with it
there is not a chance this sound test is real life lol
Not a board I would recommend for the office or heavy typing. But definitely one for gaming! with headphones on 😁
da fawk aint no way u have such quality content and have 300ish subs u deserve more
Im just a Wasabi Hahaha! Thank you!!
better than wooting?
Hmm I wouldn’t say one is better than the other on a functional level. My experience with the Wooting 60 HE came before using this and it was very positive! In short they both have rapid trigger and adjustable actuation which feels no different. Wooting sounds better though and there are a lot of customisability/mods you can do to improve it unlike the Huntsman :) I’d say if you were to choose between the two… Keyboard size, interface and style you prefer on your setup are somethings to consider!
@@wasabitech Ok thank you. Can you do me a favour and watch, if you can adjust the analog curve precise in synapse like the wooting software there you can set excatly the first actuation point at for example 1.5mm. I remember with the huntsman v2 you could only set approximately in the coordinate system the individual trigger points.
@@Trick517 on this version (Huntsman V3) you can individually set actuation and reset points at different levels for each individual key like you can with the Wooting. You will need to do that on the software (Synapse).
Seems like they tried to copy the apex pro 2023 version but the apex pro or the wooting would be to go considering the price of the razer huntsman pro tkl and the apex pro still blows the razer keyboard out in responce time and the rapid trigger feature razer rappid trigger feature has been tested compared to the apex pro 2023 and has 3x more delay and a deadzone for the rapid trigger feature but if you want the best keyboard in that price range just go with wooting
You're right to say that it does share similarities with the Apex Pro 2023 design. As for the performance, I shall not comment as I have not had the pleasure of experiencing SteelSeries Keyboards yet but!! I'll keep your thoughts in mind when I do get the chance! The Wooting 60HE is an excellent keyboard. I do hope that they come up with a 75% or TKL model soon. Been keeping my eye on their progress and I just feel "What a wonderful brand this is". Thank you for sharing Cahmmyy!!!
@@wasabitech Yes a 75% layout would be nice and the Apex Pro 2023 in specs is pretty much the same both can go to 0.1mm and you can change for your own liking and both come with rappid trigger and feel the exact some and has no deadzone for when releasing the key like razers but I am not sure if they have improved theres yet but from in depth reviews there basically the same.
Who's tested the gen2 switches? Or any of the huntsman v3s? The performance you're referring to was was on the gen 1 optical analog boards, which likely weren't designed with that kind of functionality in mind...
@@innovance3788 I am talking about the apex pro tkl 2023 since I have it. It is 0.1mm and you can change it to how you like it rappid trigger has no deadzone just as good as the wooting 60he. Wooting rappid trigger respone time is 35ms apex pro 2023 is 42ms and razer coming in at 75ms.
that was the previous gen of huntsman, I am still waiting for optimum tech to review this keyboard to see the actual measurements of the rapid trigger but so far from the reviews that I have seen the lift-off problem has been fixed and it works just like the wooting now.
The gamers that buy 4090s wont be complaining on the cost
Thats so true :')
An onion? wtf, lol. That's why i decided to watch the video, because you had a random onion at your computer.
It was a.... I was trying something new with the video ahahah 🤣
First! Who is going to be second?
Razers rapid trigger actually is bad wooting and steelseries got much better ones
Fr
Proof?
That was the case with the previous keyboard, they fixed it with this one.
