Again, what I’m about to mention is somewhat of a personal preference, and it’s impossible for me to determine if it will bother anyone else. The keyboard comes with 10 key roll-over anti-ghosting, which means that it can distinguish between 10 different keys pressed at once, a gaming mode option to disable alt-tab and the Windows key, and 1000 Hz ultrapolling.Īs much as like BlackWidow Chroma V2 for the tactile feeling it offers, I also kind of dislike it. Or you’ve already moved to another keyboard. If you were to press a single key every second, you would need about 2.5 years to reach 80 million presses, which means you'll die of old age before reaching that number. Razer says that the BlackWidow Chroma V2 has an 80 million keystroke lifespan, and that sounds like a lot. I found it difficult to use the palm rest with the keyboard raised, but that might be a personal preference or something that’s ingrained in my brain from years of using flat keyboards. The keyboard is already pretty tall, and the same can be said about the palm rest. Lastly, we have to mention that The BlackWidow Chroma V2 comes with a palm rest as well, which can be magnetically attached. The LEDs are responsive and fast, which makes some of the available lighting profiles really cool, although I have to confess that most of them don’t have practical applications. Of course, Razer Synapse is used to control everything regarding the keyboard, including the lighting, which uses the new Chroma module. Those are dedicated Macro keys, which can be useful, especially in conjunction with the Razer Synapse control center. Many of you will be quick to notice that there is an extra column on the left side, which is annotated with M. It ensures that you always have a spare USB port and a nearby place to connect a headset.
The BlackWidow Chroma V2 also comes with its own USB and audio jack ports, and very long and solid braided cables. The sound that will annoy anyone in the room with you who’s not a gamer and doesn’t have the same type of keyboard mostly comes from the keys hitting bottom. It’s also the reason why keys make much more noise than a regular keyboard. The same specs can be found for the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate 2017, which we also reviewed some time ago. Also, the keys make contact half-way, which means that users don’t need to drive them all the way down. Simply put, 50g sits somewhere in the middle, which means that some keyboards out there will require more force than others while you type.
Also, attaching grams to a force is not kosher in terms of physics, but let’s go with it since pretty much all the industry has adopted this method. Razer says the keys in The BlackWidow Chroma V2 have a 50g actuation force, but that’s not suggesting much to someone who never tried this type of keys.
