Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition

 

The Razer BlackWidow Tournament Edition mechanical keyboard is touted as being travel friendly, but the compact build only limits the functionality.

Quality construction with Cherry MX Blue mechanical switches. 10-key anti-ghosting. Detachable USB cable. Includes travel case.

Compact design removes numeric pad.

Razer BlackWidow Ultimate 2013 Elite

 

Mechanical switches provide audio and tactile feedback. Backlit.

Stylized font on keys is hard to read. No backlight customization. Poor shielding for pass-thru ports. Smudge-prone finish.

The Razer BlackWidow Ultimate 2013 Elite is a solid mechanical gaming keyboard, but it has its flaws, like a smudge prone-finish and poorly shielded connections.

Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Mechanical Gaming Keyboard review: Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

 

Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Mechanical Gaming Keyboard

Cherry MX Blue mechanical-key switches offer one of the most satisfying typing experiences available; backlighting helps you game in the dark; on-the-fly macro recording; intuitive driver software.

Backlighting and a few spare ports don't justify the $40 premium over the non-Ultimate BlackWidow.

At $125, the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate is a competitively priced mechanical gaming keyboard in its range. We just wish Razer had done more to set this "Ultimate" edition apart from Razer's more affordable standard BlackWidow.

Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Review

 

Several months ago, we had a quick look at the BlackWidow Ultimate from Razer, a company very well known for their focus on gaming-related products. A few weeks ago, Razer announced that they have developed their own all-new mechanical switches,...

In terms of design, there is little to say about the BlackWidow Ultimate, as the keyboard has essentially been around for years already. Razer refined it over time, adding one little upgrade after the other, the latest being their own Green switches....

Razer BlackWidow (2019) Gaming Keyboard Review - ThinkComputers.org

 

For the 2019 version of the BlackWidow Razer is going for a more affordable route. This full-size keyboard still has Razer's mechanical key switches, RGB lighting, and that iconic Razer keyboard shape, but missing is a metal chassis, any extra USB...

Razer BlackWidow review

 

A broadly excellent deck that sits between the Tournament Edition and the Elite in price and performance.

Superb Green mechanical switches ; Compact ; Fully programmable keys ; Good-looking

No passthrough ; Some ghosting issues ; Razer Synapse quirks

A wealth of macro options and superb Green switches make typing or gaming a pleasure, but potential software issues are an unwelcome bump in the road.

Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Battlefield 4 Collectors Edition Keyboard Review

 

For $149.99, the Battlefield 4 collectors edition model of the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate is a great deal for gamers.

Over the past few years of testing various gaming peripherals, i have come to the conclusion that they will help any gamer improve upon his skills. Most people would say otherwise, that a player is determined by his skills not his gear but the...

The Blackwidow sells from 99$ and up, it’s priced this way according to the various features it has. If you want the “lightest” version you can get it for 99$ and the most expensive sells for 140$.

Razer BlackWidow Ultimate Keyboard Review

 

Razer's perfection gets better and better with every new product/revision they come out with. This time, it's with the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate keyboard.

No doubt the keyboard is excellent to use and very well designed, the clicking sound might be a turn off for some as well as the fixed parrot green lighting color yet one should not be put off by such little things when getting a mechanical keyboard.
