Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition Linear Optical Switch Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2019-12-08

After trying out the keyboard in CS: GO, Borderlands 3, Halo: Reach and Darksiders 3, we were quite impressed by the insanely fast actuation speed this keyboard is capable of. While this aspect is very good in competitive gaming, we found ourselves pressing some keys by mistake at times so definitely the new switches need some accommodation time. Due to very fast actuation speed, we are reserved to recommending this particular keyboard for typing purposes, an aspect the Apex Pro keyboard could perform as well in good conditions thanks to the adjustable actuation distance.

Product Features:

 

ABSOLUTE SPEED

 

When a split second can mean the difference between victory and defeat, the absolute speed of the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition is what separates the champions from everyone else. Designed and tested by Team Razer athletes, this gaming keyboard is armed with the fastest Razer switches we’ve ever designed, to give you the edge you need to thrive where the competition is fiercest.

 

RAZER™ LINEAR OPTICAL SWITCH

 

With 1.0mm optical actuation that registers at the speed of light, expect nothing but instant response from every keystroke, as you react and execute clutch plays with clinical efficiency.

 

Tested to have an industry-leading durability of up to 100 million keystrokes, the Razer™ Linear Optical Switches are also well-equipped to withstand the rigors of training and competitive play.

 

DOUBLESHOT PBT KEYCAPS

 

Harder and more durable than ABS or PVC, PBT is a thermoplastic that gives the keycaps their premium feel and quality - a tough, textured finish that holds up well against intense use.

 

Made with doubleshot molding to ensure the labels never wear off, they display the thinnest font ever designed on a PBT keycap to provide a clean, minimalist aesthetic.

 

ONBOARD MEMORY

 

Bring your settings anywhere and be match-ready in no time. Activate up to 5 profile configurations from its onboard memory or custom settings via cloud storage.

 

COMPACT FORM FACTOR

 

The tenkeyless design allows for easier positioning to get your setup just right, and is easy to carry around when travelling.

 

DETACHABLE TYPE-C CABLE

 

Unpack, plug and play with minimal fuss as you move from tournament to tournament. A secure latch ensures that the cable stays connected throughout gameplay.

 

The keyboard just feels really fast. It feels so nice to press especially when playing Dota when I have to hit buttons quickly to micro my units as fast as I can.

 

STANDARD BOTTOM ROW LAYOUT

 

The Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition also has a standard bottom row, allowing for greater customization when modifying your keycaps.
