Razer 2012-13 new Black Widows: MX Brown and a tenkeyless
Posted: 26 Jul 2012, 18:11
Hi all, I haven't posted for a while but I thought this is newsworthy for Deskthority - Razer have announced some new Black Widow mechanicals, with immediate availability in some territories. The old glossy coating is gone, MX Browns are offered (described as silent & tactile) and there is a tenkeyless version for €80 or £70, I assume the actual street price will be a little lower.
Black Widow minisite
Now inevitably there is going to be some grumbling about Razer and quality, but the tenkeyless looks like it might be reasonable value for a gaming keyboard with MX Brown and 1000hz polling - so far similar offerings in ISO layout are available only with MX Blue or MX Black?
I am curious about one issue though - is the promised 6KRO (see the minisite) a proper job with diodes, or the same shenanigans Razer had with the original Black Widow keyboards?
