Title: Lightning-Fast Precision: The Ultimate Gaming Keyboard Experience!
Review: The Razer Huntsman V2 Optical Gaming Keyboard is a powerhouse for gamers and enthusiasts who value speed and precision. From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell it was designed with both performance and comfort in mind. Here's what stood out to me:Performance & Features:Linear Optical Switches: These switches are unbelievably smooth, and they register keypresses without any delay. Perfect for games that demand rapid inputs like FPS and MOBAs.8000Hz Polling Rate: This feature makes every action feel instantaneous. The responsiveness is unmatched, giving me a real edge in fast-paced games where every millisecond counts.Build Quality & Comfort:Sturdy Construction: The keyboard feels solid, with an aluminum top plate that adds durability while maintaining a sleek look.Detachable Wrist Rest: The plush leatherette wrist rest makes long gaming sessions way more comfortable, preventing strain on the wrists.Customization & Aesthetics:Razer Synapse Integration: I love the extensive customization optionsâfrom macros to lighting effects. The Chroma RGB lighting is vibrant and syncs perfectly with other Razer gear.Sound Dampening: Thereâs a noticeable reduction in noise, which makes the keystrokes satisfyingly silent compared to other mechanical keyboards.Verdict:Whether you're a competitive gamer or just want the best keyboard experience possible, the Razer Huntsman V2 is an exceptional choice. The combination of optical switches and an 8000Hz polling rate elevates gaming performance to another level. Itâs a bit of an investment, but the performance boost and build quality make it absolutely worth it.

Title: What a fantastic keyboard
Review: It seems like I'm always on the hunt for a good keyboard I can use for work. I work from home, from two different locations, and wanted a second keyboard so I didn't have to keep transporting peripherals back and forth, so I picked this keyboard. Holy crap, what a fantastic find. The keys have a non-slick, tactile feel to them, with a stiff enough feedback that minimizes typos without causing undo strain with long typing sessions, with a soft feel at the bottom of the stroke. The keyboard is also quiet! Not whisper quiet but very very muted. I also like the volume wheel that works like a charm. I haven't played with the lighting, because that's really not important to me, but I'm sure it works great. The wrist rest is also super comfortable, and has a magnetic edge so it 'clicks' into place against the bottom of the keyboard. This is another great feature in an already fabulous product. If you get the impression that I love this keyboard, then you are correct. It is BY FAR the best keyboard I have ever used, in my 35 years as a computer programmer. Well done, Razer!

Title: Excellent Keyboard
Review: This is my first time using a keyboard with optical switches. I took me a little while to get used to the feel of the linear switches, but once I did I found it great for typing, which is the main use I give it. The keys are fairly silent, and I really like the lightning. I hate it when they are too bright, like my laptop, which are alwats off beacause of that. I also like the soft wrist rest.The only drawback I find is that the feel and sound isn't consistent throughout all keys. The bigger keys aren't as silent and feel a bit wobbly and cheap compared to the smaller ones, specially the space bar. It could be one of the best keyboards if it wasn't for that. Still, I'm pretty satisfied with it.

Title: Very nice keyboard but beware
Review: I ordered a âLike Newâ used option from the warehouse and the one I received had some sort of goo all under the keys, 3 keys were sticking and hard to press, and it was dirty with gamer gunk and skin crust. Definitely received a refurbished âvery usedâ and they tried to pass it off. Thatâs why Iâm removing a star because I had to return it and pay full price for a brand new one.The new one is spectacular so far and feels very nice to type and game on. Shame on me for trying to save $50 tho!

Title: Excellent Keyboard
Review: My Logitech keyboard died a week before Thanksgiving. In an effort to escape Logitech's software (and modern hardware quality control), I decided to give the Razer Huntsman V2 (w/ Razer Red switches) a chance.Sure, it's not a custom mechanical setup with exotic Japanese switches, but it gives a premium enough feel. I love the sound dampening, the smoothness of the keys, and the relatively short actuation distance. It's not silent, per se, but it's the quietest keyboard in my house (including various laptops).I've seen comments online suggesting the keys don't light up bright enough. I'm partial to more subdued keyboard lighting, and I can vouch for the fact that I haven't had to dim the board much. Other brands use lighting that glows substantially around the keys, instead of just through the letters. Some of Razer's marketing images show bright halos around the keys, and some show none at all. In practice, they glow a little at the top of each key, but not very much at all.The only serious downside I encountered was with Razer's software. It's not very intuitive in general. But my specific complaint is that it isn't easy to use external tools to switch game profiles. I really wish these hardware companies would open source their software!Now, for why I returned it in a week. The Huntsman V2 Analog popped up on sale over Black Friday weekend for only a few buck more than I spent. I figured it was a no-brainer upgrade--how wrong I was.The analog version has added lighting around the base of the board (it looks great!) and offers analog functionality on every single key. Plus it has slightly stiffer springs. Unfortunately, it has none of the sound dampening of the regular Huntsman V2, and the keys give a loud, drum-like clack when bottomed out or rebounding.Analog, on a keyboard, is a bit of a gimmick, but one cool thing the analog version offers is adjustable actuation points. This gives you the ability to tune your typing and gaming experience.I agonized over the stiffer springs and loud typing. Ultimately, I returned the regular, quiet Huntsman V2 in favor of keeping the loud, but adjustable, Huntsman V2 Analog. Though I very seriously considered keeping both!!

Review: Simplemente no puedo estar mas contento con este teclado simplemente es de lo mejor que he tenido, las teclas son muy comodas al momento de escribir y el hecho que sean opticos hace que sea mas sencillo presionarlo (algo que si no te acostumbras puede ser molesto que presiones teclas por accidente), debo decir la fuerza de actuacion es parecida a la de los interruptores lineales y a mi parecer son un poco cansados despues de un largo tiempo.Y sobre el ruido... a mi me agradan los teclados ruidosos y debo decir que este teclado si es algo ruidoso, comparando con cualquier marca de interruptores lineales, el ruido de este es mayor que el de estos ultimos aunque no creo que llegue a u interruptor clicky.Lo mejor de este teclado es la rueda multimedia (No puedo vivir sin ella).EDIT 14/03/24: Despues de 6 meses de uso la rueda multimedioa para controlar el volumen a comenzado a fallar, no sube ni baja el volumen cuando deberia de hacerlo, algo que creo no mencione es que el puerto USB no funciona y tuve que usar el USB tipo c con el adaptador

Review: El teclado en si es bueno, son switches red y el acojinamiento que tienen para minimizar el ruido es bueno, para quien busca algo mas sonoro les puedo decir que este teclado no es para ustedes, pero si buscan un teclado que cumple, el reposa muñecas es sumamente cómodo y cuando no lo necesitas es muy fácil de mover a otro sitio, la iluminación no es espectacular pero para mi gusto eso esta bien, los controles multimedia podrÃan mejorar pero cumplen con su función perfectamente, recomiendo ampliamente el teclado y si lo pueden comprar en oferta mucho mejor.
