Razer BlackWidow V4 Mini Wireless Hot-Swap Gaming Keyboard, Orange Switch

I wouldn't wish this keyboard on my worst enemy. It's tiny and all the keys are mashed together. You have to use the fn key just to use your F keys or even something as simple as volume and play. Why do I have and use this keyboard? For a HTPC where real estate on a lap desk is at a premium. That is why I am giving it 5 stars, because it serves that role perfectly. It is heavy so it stays put. It's rechargeable battery lasts forever even with the LEDs on. It connects via Bluetooth, which was a requirement because my HTPC is completely out of USB ports for a proprietary dongle. The build quality is high quality. Nothing feels cheap. The lighting is gorgeous and the effects options are plentiful. This is a serious gaming keyboard. I have the orange switches and they are pretty good and quiet, which is a must for HTPC use. I do wish there was an option for the linear switches. I love the connectivity options this keyboard gives you. It connects via Bluetooth, Razer's 2.4GHz Dongle and USB. Connection using Bluetooth via an Intel Killer BE1750x shows only slight lag. It is okay for general use and games that don't boil down to milliseconds like an FPS. The 2.4GHz dongle and especially wired are a lot better. This keyboard hits it out of the park with this flexibility. At 130 dollars, it is pretty expensive, but you get what you pay for in terms of quality. It is a very specialised keyboard. I could not recommend it for a regular computer as it is too small and limited and I could not live with it as a keyboard on my main system. It's market is for someone who needs a small mechanical keyboard with flexibile connectivity for travel or extremely limited desk space. For this market, it hits it out of the ball park.

I bought this keyboard over a year ago and it has seen daily use. The keys still feel amazing and there has been no normal wear and tear. They built this thing to last! I usually keep it plugged in so I don't have to deal with battery life, but this thing has been a solid unit for my PC!

This keyboard is genuinely amazing, it’s actually so beautiful especially in the dark. The build quality is really good and the weight is perfect for the specs it has, and since it’s 65% you get arrow keys and macro keys. I got this on sale for 87. The price could go down a tad bit but it’s Razer. The battery life could be a bit better but it’s all good. Expect 20 - 30 hours on a full charge with RGB on. With RGB off you can go about a week on a full charge. The Razer orange switches sound really good too. You get a free switch and keycap puller, and free Razer stickers included.

Razer Synapse keeps causing my computer to freeze and shut down. I tested my PC with a fresh Windows install for a week without any problems. As soon as I installed Synapse for the keyboard, the freezing and random shutdowns started happening again. The keyboard was connected through the USB dongle the whole time. I also tried it on a Dell Precision computer and experienced stuttering, so I stopped using it there because I didn’t want to risk the data on that machine. One of the shutdowns caused me to lose important data that I couldn’t recover. I can use the keyboard wired without Synapse, but then the lighting doesn’t work. Bluetooth also doesn’t work despite trying different troubleshooting methods. I’m not willing to connect it to my main computer again because I need it for work and can’t risk another crash or losing more files. Went through 20 messages with Razer support and from where I live.. to ship it back to the US is completely unreasonable and costs half the keyboard. They didn’t honor my warranty. Completely unsatisfactory. Only 2 months or so I had this keyboard.

its a good keyboard, but not even month the letter "W" sometimes doesn't work but besides that, great keyboard

delivers the responsiveness and low latency of Razer HyperSpeed Wireless, plus Bluetooth support for easy multi‑device connection, so you can jump into games or switch between work and play with zero fuss. The hot‑swappable design is a huge bonus it lets you customize your switch feel without soldering, which is ideal if you like tweaking your setup over time. The Phantom pudding keycaps and strong RGB lighting really shine in RGB‑enabled games and make your setup pop, while the pre‑installed tactile switches strike a nice balance between typing comfort and gaming responsiveness. Battery life is excellent too lasting up to around 200 hours. On the flip side, some reviewers mention that the lack of key legends when the lighting is off can make it tricky to touch‑type in low light. A few users have also pointed out that, like many compact boards, build quality and switch consistency can vary, so checking fit and feel is worth it after unboxing.

I upgraded from the v3 version of this keyboard to v4, and I do not regret it one bit. v3 always bothered me, because the keys felt like the liked precision. They had good key travel, but they did not react well when precision was needed for activities like driving or bunny hopping in a video game. The v4 is perfect; it is performing way better at precision activities. I find holding the shift key to be a lot less strenuous on the v3 or the v4. The v4 is absolutely worth the upgrade and is a bargain at its current price.

product in perfect conditions, perfect price. Solid 10/10

Great build quality. Portable but feels very full size for typing. Big hands still work it well, concern cause I hate tablet keyboards all flat. Colors are actually more helpful when low-light working. I enjoy it over my laptop with tablet. I also use it to remote into my system no need to bring the KVM inline I just Bluetooth or thumb port and go. Or cable. Size compared in photo next to full side Razer Ornata KB and Red Dragon Full-size KB. Case options exist. Works with tablet. Check out pics.

Stopped charging after less than 2 months

El producto vino dañado, algunas keycaps vienen rotas

Fabulous

Lo compré el 13 de febrero de este año y hace una semana ya se le sale la tecla "W" al presionarla, en repetidas ocasiones la presiono y se sale sola. Todas las demás teclas funcionan bien, pero la "W" no.
