#Razer #Keyboard #Unboxing
This was an excellent review, told me everything I i needed to know, thank you and God bless 😊👍
finally 100% detachable cables. I wanna see a non pro version with the dial
and i hope this is the new BW design from now on
Hey there! I totally get what you mean. A non-pro version of the Razer BlackWidow with that cool dial feature would be awesome. Speaking of upgrades, have you heard about the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? It's a handy tool for keeping your desk clean and organized. Check it out! 🖥💨
its already out and i have it its amazing
first ever v4 product by razer
Finally GOOD stabilizers...
Been waiting for another video
Just got it and out of the box I love it. Do I replace the caps is the question?
Dont mean to complain but how do u do a sound test with background music still on ??? Did you mention that this keyboard has sound dampening foam inside ?
Nice video as usual!
I am EXTREMELY happy to see Razer bring back macro keys. Hypershift was a good idea and I don't mind still having the option but nothing beats macro keys
Rly how can you like macro keys from left side? Everytime i tryied them, i always press macro key instead of ctrl.
@@Alekouzos well… I don’t so I like them
@@Alekouzosyou have to get used to them. I own 2 Blackwidow Chromas (v1) simply for the macro keys. I used one for home and the other work. For work, it’s a time safer as I can assign a function key or shortcuts to any of the macro keys without lifting my left hand off the keyboard. And then I make different profiles for different programs I used at work making those 5 keys impossible to replace. This keyboard is definitely an upgrade. I’m going to wait about a year and see if any refurbished models show up on Amazon for halve the price 😁 that’s usually how I get most of my razer products
@@Alekouzos Just set your Macro key as ctrl. Thank me later 😛
Hey there, {{3}}! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I totally agree with you on the benefits of having macro keys. They can truly enhance productivity and customization options. By the way, have you heard of the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? It's a versatile cleaning tool that's perfect for maintaining a spotless desktop, among other things. Its dual-function capabilities and efficient design make it a great addition to any setup. Check it out if you're interested! 🖥🧹
Can i ask is the macro still work if you close the razer apps?
are the RGBs brighter than the huntsman elite , it seems like it
what is that module you have beside the keyboard with the different programs on it?
is the bottom row standard keycaps?
Ordered mine tonight, 2 weeks for delivery is what is stated, but its ok, gives me something to look forward to
I really hope the volume diales work good on this keyboard, i got the blackwidow V3 and right out of the box the volume dial worked very bad, not to mention if i use any of the RGB modes for my keyboard, it sometimes disconnects just like my razer Basilisk V3…. Idk why they do this
i wish we would have a razer store in Hungary. Good content, keep it up :)
Why did they discontinue the orange/brown key switches?
8:09 - LOL! You have the exact same External SSD drive that I have! Nice!
Just ordered it today in Germany. Thank you for doing this review. It confirmed my opinion needing it 🤣 Im so glad, that razer provide them with yellow switches as well in GER.
Hey there! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I totally get the importance of keeping our setups clean and dust-free. Have you considered trying the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? It's a versatile device that offers both powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, which could be perfect for maintaining your desktop, car, and more. Plus, its key features like multiple tubes, high-quality filters, and efficient storage make it quite practical. It could be a great addition to your tech cleaning routine! 🖥💨
Hey, I recently came across a cool gadget called the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It's a compact device that combines vacuuming and blowing capabilities, making it perfect for maintaining a spotless workspace, among other things. With its powerful features and reasonable price, it's definitely worth checking out. Happy cleaning!
Hello how keyboard performs after 6 months of use?
@@gunslingerjohny1868 Still in use and no issues. Only thing is, there are no PBT keycaps for this keyboard. Thats a bit annoying. But still great performance 💪🏻
@@Amryen thanks for reply m8, i would like to buy 1 but i have heared there is problem with macro keys. (Basicly u press it once and it makes an action 2 times) any issues with that? :)
What is that cpu water cooling? so cool
What's better this or the huntsman v2 purple?
I just wish they would make them with their orange switches... i want the tactility w/o the click... asking too much? I dont want to have to solder on different switches.... : I at least they could have made this one hotswapable...
is kraken v4 pro gonna release any time now?
Is there any link for that RGB M.2 SSD ??
I'm going to go buy this now specifically for the premiere timeline scrolling! How did you set that up?
Hey there! As a fellow tech enthusiast, I highly recommend checking out the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It offers a powerful vacuuming and blowing capability, making it perfect for keeping your desktop, living spaces, and even your car clean. With its compact size and versatile accessories, it's definitely a handy tool to have in your tech arsenal. Also, the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule's price is reasonable compared to other tool brands. Definitely worth considering!
I bought Huntsman recently and i must say that i prefer Hunstman. Hunsman offers how much you want keys to be soft or hard, but doesn't offer extra volume and side buttons. Plus doesn't have more rgb colors on buttons (just top). I'd say it's great choice to have Huntsman and plus in the box is not looking like you bought keyboard in cheap market store. Both is good, but if you prefer for more rgb. Go with BW V4 Pro. For buttons soft-hard customization, go with Hunsman.
I fully agree with you. I was deciding between the two but went with the BWV4Pro for the same exact reasons. I remember wanting the first HMV2 Analogue several years ago for the variable actuation feature but didn't go for it since I already had the HM Elite. The analogue features of the HMV3Pro is definitely very impressive but at the end of the day I know that I will get over the novelty and unlikely to put it to good use (I'm basically the type who is too lazy to manually assign buttons on an MMO mouse or make full use of all the buttons on a HOTAS setup). In the end what made me choose the BWV4Pro is the super vibrant underglow RGB (the same thing I enjoyed on my HM Elite), the dedicated media/volume knobs and the 8 macro buttons. I'm unashamedly a style over substance guy I guess lol. I derived a lot of pleasure from my varied collection of keyboards and mice but not necessarily just because they had certain unique features (which I know I'm not that deep into such things to actually make use of them).
@@artyboy1377 Now after using Huntsman my fingers hurt of using it Definitely because the keys are tighter than Logitech g910 keyboard. It's a good keyboard but keys need to be bit more wider.
Top infos 👍 thank you
why doesn't the pro version exist in swedish layout? I really want the rgb around the pillow
The v4 pro sounds silent compared to the V3, definitely returning and upgrading..
Cool beans. Still waiting for that new Firefly release, though.
You and me both!
Love the video
Does it works with Mac M1 pro?
what are your thoughts about this keyboard vs the blackwidow elite from 2018, which do you like the most? also, which would be better in terms of built quality?
I like the 2018 much more
record a review of new mousepads
Why are the macro keys only on one side on the keyboard🤦♂️
this will be my next board
Is one cable enough for RGB? (I don't need USB pass through). Also, is the cable USB-C to USB-A? Thank you!
I also want to know if one cable is enough , I want to use my custom coiled cable but needing two of those cables would ruin what makes a coiled cable look good
HEY GREAT VIDEO
Not entirely impressed tho , this innovation was introduced by MSI Sonic Red Switches GK71 . Only thing that stands out with this keyboard is that the cable is detachable and the RGB is also displayed around the wrist rest .
not pbt keycaps it's abs keycaps Did you check the box ?
Does it work with bluetooth or a 2,4GHz Adpater or just with a cable? (like the V3 pro)
No bluetooth
Are those M1, M2, M3 etc keys not too far for your fingers to use? For example they’re not recommended for gaming keybinds i assume
macro
Can you do more network wifi 6e videos
M1 M2 keys are backkk Thank you Razer!!!!!!! (OG blackwidow user... blackwidow ultimate.. )
Macros are back!
I'm going to the Razer Store London tomorrow or Saturday and thinking about getting one of these but as I have a Huntsman V2 Analogue I'm wondering if it's worth paying the money for it? I LOVE that the switch housings are clear on it to let more light through, as the 1 thing I don't like about this KB is there is no light at the front of the keys. But I do love the analogue switches. I'm hoping that they maybe make a Huntsman V3 Analogue that has clear switch housings and even a Pro version that is wireless Great video though, been watching your videos when making my decisions on buying new Razer gear
Hey , i understand what you're saying. I'm currently using the Huntsman V2 and the RGB is so dim... furthermore when my brightness is between 50 and 100% my KB makes a buzzing noise (it comes from the LED's chip) and it's very annoying. Yesterday I ordered a Blackwidow V2, a keyboard that I had several years ago that I find better than the Huntsman range (the RGB is much better and qualitative, and even if I will lose the optical switches, the mechanical are excellent too) I will receive my Blackwidow on Saturday ^^
Unless battery or optical switch technology takes a huge leap forward , a wireless huntsman is a pipe dream because of the large power draw, to be an actually viable wireless keyboard it has to last longer than an hour between charges.
@@virtual9003 my ornata does the buzzing too i hear it thru the headset
Hey, thanks for the comment! Based on the video, I think you'll really benefit from investing in the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule. It's a versatile cleaning tool that can help you maintain a spotless desk and even clean the tight spaces in your car. The keyboard cleaning feature is particularly useful for getting rid of crumbs and dust between keys. Plus, it's portable and has a long-lasting battery. Give it a shot and let me know what you think!
Love Razer gear, definitely the best on the market.
Wow it’s very quiet. Wish they made more clicky keyboards like the huntsman V2 Still, I didn’t know this even existed. I went with an Alienware 920K instead can’t wait to get it
Hey there, {{3}}! If you're looking for a way to maintain a clean and spotless desk, the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule could be a great addition to your setup. With its powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, it's perfect for keyboard cleaning and keeping your workspace tidy. Plus, it's compact and versatile, allowing you to clean your car's interior or even inflate inflatable items. Definitely worth considering for an optimized desktop experience! 👍🖥️
There is a green switch option that is clicky
I sware this dude comes back from the dead to make a video about a new razer product then goes back into hibernation
I need tHis with wireless
Really wish the Razer PBT keycaps came with macro keys….you see this Razer?
Hey {{3}}, have you ever considered using the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? It's a versatile tool that can help you keep your desk and gaming peripherals clean. With powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, it's perfect for efficiently removing dust and debris from your keyboard and other tight spaces. Plus, it's lightweight and portable for easy on-the-go use. Definitely worth checking out!
Can you infinite scroll with the volume wheel?
No, but that actually sounds like a cool feature!
nice one
Please can someone answer me this, can you sync razer synapse profiles between your mouse and keyboard? All I want to do is press a key on my keyboard to switch to the same profile on my mouse also so I don't have to press my keyboard and mouse separately???
yes.
No ORANGE SWITCHES :(
Still waiting for a hot swappable keyboard from razer
The death stalkers v2 pro is
To buy it , i literally have sell both of my kidneys 😂😂 btw it was a great review 🎉🎉
Very cool video.
Thanks!
V5 Pro will be wiress then.
So best Blackwidow ehh, even before you opened and tried it, funny you must be able to tell the future. .
I had already tried it at the Razer event
did u notice any coil whine from keyboard? many of razers keyboards have this....
What's coil whine??
@@Alpha_Xero when u hear some noise from the pcb electronic parts of a product
I don't think I should've started on a 60% keyboard, whenever I use a full-size at all I feel like I have to move my entire posture to the left.
Hey there!Based on your comment, it seems like you're looking for a solution to maintain a clean desktop setup without compromising your posture. Have you considered using a compressed air capsule like the HOTO Compressed Air Capsule? With its powerful vacuuming and blowing capabilities, it can effectively clean your keyboard and surrounding areas. It's a great tool for keeping your workspace tidy. Let me know if you found this suggestion helpful!
This keyboard sounds no different to the Corsair k70 keyboard the keys also sound clacky and hollow.
Looks good but a bit too big. I may get a smaller version depending on the features since I already have a V3.
just got the v4 today and its getting returned. dont care for the macro keys. its just too big a keyboard after using the huntsman v2 tkl which feels better to type on and has the PBT caps
“of course”
i can never use keyboards which have macro keys on left, i always fatfinger them
Hahah takes some time getting used to a keyboard with macro keys 😆
There are so many perfect keyboards out there but unfortunately almost non of them are wireless. I won't pay that much money for a keyboard that has an ugly wire on my desk. Right now only Logitech and Corsair have top keyboards which are actually wireless with the same range of prices comparing to the other producers.
hello bro, is it yellow? Is it good for online games? Is it green? Does it work with wifi? Which model of Razer do you recommend that works with wifi?

I have this keyboard and I can say that it is good, but the accompanying software bey which is an average keyboard is a total fiasco. Special letters on the German language are not visible at all, and the command wheel does not work with the yum function. Only when you use the software. A lot of nerves and a keyboard that is at the top in everything, even the most important, appreciate it...
Only available for purchase in USA... They forgot about Europe?
Maybe it’s just sold out in Europe right now?
@@TechBlock Yeha I guess, do you think there will be a wireless version of this?
She looks so cool
I LOVE RAZER!!!!!!!
320 usd is quite a hefty price
Crazy price for a keyboard 😆
and then you see the pricetag:
I got huntsman elite for £39 😂
it's a slight worse k100 with detachable cables. the problem being i already own a k100. but really would love detachable cables
Why worse ?
@@virtual9003 name brand switches, has 3 more programable keys, costs less. Also has the only wrist rest I’ve ever liked on a keyboard 🤷🏻♂️
Keyboard still sort of sounds hollow. What a shame.
I swear razer has the best looking shit..
no wireless :/ but i like ur pc case haha
Its the Y60 by hyte i think if you are interested
@@K3Vz0 ty
The unfortunate thing with usb passthrough and a ton of rgb is that the power draw wouldn't work well with the size constraints a wireless keyboard has , you have to account for the wireless module , and a battery large enough to justify it being wireless ( which with all that rgb is a huge battery they'd have to somehow fit into a keyboard without it being a brick)( it's why they didn't make a wireless huntsman , the optical switches needed too much power for a wireless version to be justified) not to mention wireless usb passthrough is a shoddy technology at best right now and it's too expensive to try and fit into a keyboard.
make a freaking lubed keyboard EAZZZEERRRRR🙄
Lol everytime I want to buy a razer product I look here if it's good lol
Again only in black color? When will they learn that many have an all white setup and wont buy a black keyboard???
Why are u leaving for months and then come back all of sudden all the time?
My guess is he is a young lad in his 20s and has a life away from KZhead, which is a good thing.
@@yamsi12 well it is, but he was literally zooming when it comes to subs, I remeber subbing at around 12k i think and was super happy seeing him grow, ngl i would have partied after i become independent and can live from youtube, and I feel like he couldve been close
i like Razer...but damn they need to up their game on the things that they do with their premium boards....keyboard wrapped in a flimsy plastic bag surrounded by cardboard and thats it? asus did a better job with Flare II AniMate
nice
If you doing typing and sound test why you use music 🤦🏻♀️
Sounds like trash, but looks good, and comes with ABS keycaps foe that price
Deathstalker v2 pro better
Polar65
My Epomaker Skyloong GK98 just looks better and has same yellow switches for less than half the price.
I have a recommendation for you - i think it would be nice if you clean your nails for your next review :) it is peasure to watch your videos but it is too much for me
💢
I'm surprised that Razer is still producing these noisy, clacky keyboards using those silly, rattly and cheap feeling costars stablizers. Ew. Even ASUS ROG has stepped up their game with the new ASUS ROG Azoth gaming keyboard. Has a more compact 75% layout which makes it easier to move around on the desk. The build quality is fantastic with layers of damping. It's even gasket mounted, and the keystrokes feel absolutely like a premium custom keyboard. Even has an OLED screen on it which can be customized to display relevant data or info. It's also tri-mode. And what does Min-Liang give us? More fluff over the previous gen BW.
