This keyboard is a TKL, meaning it does not have the number pad keys on the right side of the keyboard. This is great when you use a large mouse pad or have a small desk. It is marketed towards the office user, but I'm not sure why anyone would personally go out of their way to buy this for office usage as it lacks the number pad that I use at work daily. I purchased this solely for gaming and home PC usage.
This keyboard comes with tactile switches which are a good compromise between red (linear) and blue (tactile). They appear to be slightly lubed from the factory and feel very smooth. It also has included orange colored o-rings for the switches if you want to lower the noise a bit, but I personally found they made the keyboard feel a bit mushy, like a traditional membrane keyboard so I opted to not use them. It also comes with a keycap puller to remove the keys to clean them or install the o-rings. Another nice touch is the typical Razer stickers that they include with all of their products.
My main keyboard prior to purchasing this was a Ducky One 2 SF, but with Cherry MX Brown switches. This uses Razer's "Orange" switches, which are a Brown equivalent. I'm fairly certain that they are made by Kailh, but labeled "Razer". The Ducky I use is a very vibrant, full RGB. The Blackwidow Lite only comes with white LEDs, but I'm fine with it for the price. For some odd reason, my Caps Lock key is brighter and a bit more yellow than the other keys, especially when I lower the brightness on the rest of the keys. You can adjust the brightness without the optional Razer Synapse software, which I try to avoid whenever possible. The Caps Lock key will also light up green when it is pressed.
While I prefer the Ducky in terms of feel and looks, this is a great alternative for half the price (The Razer is on sale for $60 at my time of writing this review). There are no major QC issues and everything feels very solid with its understated looks. I highly recommend this keyboard for the price.
UPDATE 10-4-20: This keyboard is still going strong, and I am using it to write this update. No issues or wear to report.
The lettering looks really clean on the keyboard, and the backlighting is just right, not too bright or soft. Keyboard material, albeit seeming to be mostly plastic, still has a nice texture and premium feel to it.
These Razer orange switches (brown equivalent) are wonderful and have made a noticeable difference for me when typing, both as a gamer and as a programmer. They are certainly an outright upgrade from the Outemu reds I had been using at my desk at home previously (I liked the smooth action but found I made a lot of mistakes with the low actuation force of the red switches), and I'll give them a slight edge in terms of personal preference for the softer switch action of the brown switch as opposed to the Cherry MX Blue switches I have in my keyboard at the office (currently not seeing much use, obviously). I am not ultra-sensitive to switch quality, I just prefer a keyboard with clean action and quality build, and after finally having given this style of switch a try I don't think I can go back.
My only two *very minor* gripes are these:
1. Aesthetic from the side of the keyboard is a bit strange. The keycaps are very short in height and so the components underneath each key are visible, including the switch+switch housing. Seems like that's the aesthetic they're going for, just not my personal taste, and it's unnoticeable from above, which is where I'm mostly seeing the keyboard from anyway.
2. Keyboard deck warped ever so slightly at one point so that it wasn't sitting flush with the desk. Not sure if this will resurface in the future, but I was able to unwarp it using raw man power (aka a very light bend back in the correct direction) and it has been sitting fine for over a week since I noticed the issue.
These are not deal breakers in the slightest, just for others to be aware of when purchasing. Still love the keyboard, and certainly not worth subtracting a star.
Took a little bit getting used to the full key press but once I did, everything is fine and dandy. I got the orange switch despite ordering yellow, (bummer Amazon) but chose to keep it.
The included Synapse software is powerful but there is a bit of a learning curve.
Pros:
- Despite being ABS, keycaps are pretty good. Light shines through each letter perfectly
- The key response time is excellent. Very little typo once you adjust to the spacing after spending a year on a laptop
- Works perfectly fine (no lights) without the software on the work computer. If your company is allergic to installing third party stuff, you can still use the keyboard without the bells and whistles
- PALM REST: I hated palm rests in the past, until I tried this one. It is just the right amount of soft, perfect size and the magnetic connection does not break
Cons:
- Honestly nothing to note so far, hence the 5* review

Para sistema Mac OS deja mucho que desear pero esto es por qué no existe soporte en software para este sistema operativo, se tiene que buscar soluciones de terceros para por lo menos hacer funcionar a como quieras las luces
En pocas palabras es un teclado de lo tiene todo en excelencia, me gusta su estética, me gusta su tacto de switches (yellow switches), el tiempo de respuesta, la profundidad de desplazamiento, la sensación totalmente limpia y satisfactoria de escritura, el reposamuñecas es tan cómodo y práctico con que sea removible con magnetismo, es un teclado elegante con la ventaja gamer, por el precio que lo conseguí (1600$ pesos mexicanos) es la mejor compra en cuanto a periféricos que he hecho, este teclado es perfecto en todo sentido, su brillo RGB es bastante potente, el switch es excelente y sus keycaps son suaves, no es muy ruidoso si buscas un teclado discreto en cuanto a sonido al escribir se refiere. Su construcción y materiales son bastantes robustos, me da la sensación de que me durará 4 años, y eso sólo para tener que cambiarle las keycaps por unas de PBT doble inyección del mismo Razer quizá.
Es en mi opinión un teclado 3B y un EndGame. Con este teclado puedes finalizar la búsqueda de otro.
