Your mileage may vary, and it could’ve been an issue with my computer, but I’ve never experienced this when using a Logitech G915 TKL’s Bluetooth connection with this same PC, (and my mouse’s Bluetooth connection didn’t drop).įor gaming though, the HyperSpeed dongle connection is recommended. After 13 hours of using the keyboard in Bluetooth mode while also using a wireless mouse, the keyboard suddenly connection three times- each time was after a few minutes of inactivity. Unlike with many wireless gaming peripherals, you can even control the BlackWidow V3 Pro with software when paired to your PC via Bluetooth. I also successfully paired the clacker with up to three Bluetooth devices and jumped around by hitting FN and 1, 2 or 3, making the keyboard a decent, but heavier, option for productivity or bringing into the living room. You can opt for the 2.4 GHz dongle connection, a Bluetooth one or the detachable, braided USB-C cable. A solid toggle that won’t accidentally get hit on the left side makes it easy to switch between systems. Speaking of which, the icons south of the navigational keys are also difficult to discern.Īlthough the keyboard’s not easy to lug around, Razer makes it easy to pair it with multiple PCs. The symbols on thmn, however, are hard to read, especially if you’re in a well-lit room. The three media buttons accompanying it also stick out proudly and feature a smooth plastic finish. The wheel also provides extra functionality as a programmable button.

Adjusting the wheel changes volume by two steps and feels like DJing. Like the wired Razer Huntsman Elite, the BlackWidow V3 Pro sports one stylish volume wheel that lights up with RGB, offers tactile control, a frosted press-in center, and juts out of the keyboard’s side for a daring shape. It’s not the same luxurious and cooling memory foam but it's comfy, and the leatherette feels nice on the wrists. But the wrist rest here puts up a good fight. Many freebie wrist rests are flimsy pisces of plastic I’d immediately toss aside in favor of my HyperX Wrist Rest. The wrist rest, (which the Logitech rival omits), is well-cushioned. The Razer RGB logo is a given, but it intersects the aluminum top plate and lives behind textured plastic that takes away from the subtly aluminum finish and makes the snake emblem look a little blurry.Īdmittedly, many gamers will rejoice to see the keyboard’s potential for subtlety. The wireless Logitech G915 Lightspeed, with its brushed-aluminum top plate and matching volume wheel and soft-touch buttons looks more expensive and special at first glance. A standout volume wheel also brings flair, but for how expensive this keyboard is I wouldn’t have minded extra pizazz.
