The editors didn't like

  • It looks like a nerdy greasy gamer keyboard
  • They're a new breed of switches Razer calls opto-mechanical. Mechanical because these are
  • At their core
  • Mechanical switches—specifically a clicky kind reminiscent of the Cherry Blue or Alps switch. That means
  • None I can think of
  • Pricey
  • Final Thoughts
  • All said and done
  • The RAZER Huntsman Elite is an excellent gaming keyboard in terms of both quality and functionality. You also get a wealth of features via its Synapse 3 software
  • Which allows you to program
  • Expensive
  • Only one switch type
  • No dedicated macro keys
  • Opto-Mechanical switch is deafeningly loud
  • Volume wheel is hard to use without looking
  • Wrist-rest illumination requires both USB cables to be plugged in
  • High price
  • Inconsistent software
  • Need two USB ports for lighting
  • ABS keycaps
  • Multi-media key legends are not see-through
  • A bit pricey (although inline with competition)
  • Might be too pricey for some gamers

  • Fastest key actuation ever, Tactile and audible key switch clicks, Nearly perfect keyboard layout
  • Requires two USB ports for power, Sharp edges on palm rest, Whiplash-inducing price
  • Forget about Cherry MX Speed or any other keyboard switch, Razer's Optomechanical switches are easily the fastest keyboard switches we've ever typed on. Meanwhile, the Razer Huntsman Elite is the closest thing we've seen to a perfectly laid out keyboard.O...

  • Abstract:  The office may hate me, but Razer's new Huntsman Elite keyboard feels so good to type on I'm willing to suffer the glares for all the noise I'm making. It feels a little silly saying that what with me having expensive keyboard collecting habit. But Razer...

  • The Razer Hunstman Elite brings something new to the table with its exceptional optical switches, and useful features like the illuminated wrist rest and programmable wheel. The $200 price tag is a hard pill to swallow though, especially when it's missing...

  • Plush palm rest is a nice inclusion, RGBae effects are amazing, Cables are well-protected by braiding, Loving the dedicated media controls, The smoothest clicky switches I have ever tried
  • Requires two USB ports, Keycaps are lackluster at this price range, Disagreeable pricing
  • Well-heeled gamers with a preference for clicky switches should definitely buy the Razer Huntsman Elite...

  • Speedy optical switches, Comfortable, plush wrist rest, Highly customizable RGB lighting, Onboard memory
  • Thick, unwieldy, and nondetachable cable, Expensive for a mostly plastic keyboard, Stock ABS keycaps
  • All things considered, the Razer Huntsman Elite is a keyboard for those where price isn't an issue. If you want one of the most technically competent switches on the market, Razer's Opto-Mechanical switches seem like a good fit. I honestly don't think the...
