Razer Huntsman Elite Gaming Keyboard

Overall build of this keyboard is top-notch. The keyboard ishefty and feels solid.
The body is metal, so the whole keyboard feels heavy and solid build.
The aluminum frame is cool to the touch and gives it a nice weight.
The keyboard itself is built tough, it’s very rigid with some nice weight to it.
Love about the Chroma color integration as well as the program-ability. And it has real weight to it as well.

What customers say about "Keys"

Razer Huntsman Elite Gaming Keyboard

I really like the feel of this keyboard. Typing and gaming feels great.
The keys are stabilized so that there is minimum "wobble".
Keys are "fast" actuation feel, and you have an excellent high-end keyboard.
Gaming and typing feel really great. If you can forgive the "loud" keys.
The media controls are perfect. The laser keys are a neat addition to mechanical keyboards.
