BlackWidow V4 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Yellow Linear Switches | Chroma RGB, 6 Dedicated Macro Keys, Magnetic Wrist Rest, Doubleshot ABS Keycaps

I picked up the Razer BlackWidow V4 mainly because I wanted something I could actually customize—both the key binds and the lighting—and it definitely delivers on that. I’ve just been using it as my daily keyboard for gaming and regular stuff, and the first thing I noticed was the wrist rest. It’s actually really comfortable and makes longer sessions way easier on my hands. The RGB is also solid. It synced right up with my Razer mouse without any hassle, which is a nice touch if you like everything matching. As for the typing and gaming feel, it’s what you’d expect from a mechanical keyboard—responsive and pretty satisfying. Maybe a little loud depending on your setup, so that’s something to keep in mind if you’re sharing a space. Only small downside for me is the keys will collect dust and food bits in between them, but the keyboard has an easy fix for that. You can take off most of the keys and then dust in between them. Overall, I’d say it’s a good pick if you’re a gamer and want customization without having to mess with anything too crazy hardware-wise.

Love this keyboard! I've been a fan of razer products for years and this is easily the nicest keyboard I've ever purchased from them. Quality wise it both looks and feels high end. The rgb is bright and everything, with exception to the macro keys, work right out of the box without the need for synapse. This keyboard has its own memory so you can set the macros to whatever you want in the synapse app then uninstall the synapse app and the macros will remain. It's quiet and fast. I recommend this keyboard for everyone. The wrist rest is thick and comfortable as well. Update, I'm keeping the 5 stars because for gaming it's amazing however the yellow keys were far too sensitive for typing. A lot of mistypes. Swapped it for the huntsman v2 analog instead.

Smooth looks, easy to customize RGB, the wrist rest is super comfortable (and fun to just swing around when im bored), the durability must be good because I play a lot of Osu! Mania, which beats the keys pretty hard. I honestly should've gotten the clicks keys, but the smooth ones are fine too. A little hard to clean, but keyboards aren't typically easy to in the first place. I like how it has a nice weight to it, along with the good pads on the bottom, making it so it hasn't slid once during use. Overall I got what I expected for the price, good product.

I'm leaving the typos in to show how annoying this really iss. I had a BlackWidow V2 for years, it was flawless and only started breaking because I sspilled a few things on it over the years. The V3 didn't come with a plush wrist rest so I decided against buying that, but the V4 came out sshortly after I started looking and it did have a plush wrist rest so I decided to cave and buy it on a sale. I saw a few negative reviews saying that ssome people were having issues with it double-pressing letters (keyboard chatter), but decided that since people tend to review more often when they're uspsset with a product and there were so many 5-stars, I would take the risk anyways. At first the thing was great, but about a month in I began to see the "s" key start to hit twice on the same press when typing, but it didn't do anything when playing gamess so I decided to leave it be and see if it got any better. It's only gotten worse since then. Not only does it double-press (mostly on "s", but every once in a while it does on a few other letters) but now the "s" key barely function when playing games whatsoever. If it was another key on the board I could work around it but the "s" key is sso important that I can basically no longer play games where I need to walk backwards. Half the time I hit the button, nothing happens in any game. This has made the keyboard basically useless for me, and it's incredibly frustrating. I have never been so disappointed with a product I've purchased in my life. There was clearly no quality testing at all because this is not a rare problem. I'm in the process of talking with Razer and I assume they'll send me another one of the same kind, so I will update this review a while after the new one comes in. I found a thread on a forum where someone said they had the same issue and Razer sent them another keyboard that had the same exact issue, so I don't have high hopes. I do not whatssoever recommend buying this product. If you are dead-set on picking it up, make sure you get the extended warranty, but it's more than likely you'll have issues far before the default 1-year warranty is up anyways. Edit: I got my replacement keyboard a few months ago, and it had the same exact problem. Different keys were double-pressing this time, but it was even worse than the first one overall. Razer did allow me to trade this second one in for a more expensive Huntsman V2 at no cost, which was nice of them, but truthfully it was the least they could do for me at that point. I have had slight issues with the Huntsman V2 so far but unplugging it and plugging it back in fixed those problems, unlike the previous two keyboards. I strongly recommend never purchasing this product, Razer’s support has been great but I will never be purchasing one of their products again because it took me 6 months to get a (mostly) working keyboard after purchase.

I'm still using it but I do get weird errors. Certain keys will activate twice with one press and sometime my number row would just stop working. Luckily it connects at the back of the keyboard as well as at the computer so a quick unplug and replug would get the keys working again. I do feel like that has lessened so maybe they've put out new firmware but it's happened more than 5 times over the months. When it's functioning properly I do enjoy it. The removable wrist pad is comfortable and the keyboard feels well built.

Been amazing, great keybaord for gaming

I have tried both the green keyed and yellow keyed version of this keyboard; I ended up returning the green keyed one because it was obnoxiously loud when typing, and despite the yellow keyed saying it’s silent, it’s not quite silent but quiet enough that I’m happy with it. It is a little awkward having the additional macro keys on the far left, very used to esc being top left key so I’m going to have to get used to that. Keys are vibrant and I’m really impressed with the color display; works great with SignalRGB for synchronization between other RGB devices. The wrist pad that comes with it feels great, it’s some sort of gel inside with a very soft leather like surface. It feels solid as well and each key acts independently from the others next to it. I feel bad for others with the issues they described with double typing and such, but the like new version I got doesn’t have those issues yet.

Been using it for over a year and a half and it works perfectly, the only gripe is that one of the leds in one of the keycaps stopped working as intended and is only capable of showing red colors. Other than that, is an excellent keyboard.

Todo iba bien al inicio de adquirir la compra, pero al cabo de unas semanas, me comenzó a registrar doble acción en las teclas ‘e’ y ‘5’ del pad numérico. El teclado en general no es malo, sin embargo, ese pequeño detalle hace que prefiera otros teclados que se pueden cambiar teclas/switches por individual, ya que en este caso se debe cambiar todo el teclado para que solo 2 teclas no registren el error.

an excellent keyboardd!

Excellent clavier pour le prix et ses la meilleure version du blackwidow, jai jamais utilisé par contre les macros j'en ai pas de besoin, mais je doute qu'ils doivent fonctionner !!!

Some switches will stop working after a while. At first everytime I would write the letter "m" it would type twice. Now it stops writting. My "s" now also has the same issue and "a" is starting to do the same thing. I've had the keyboard for 3 months. The issue started barely after a month. Do a quick google search and you see that a lot of people have this issue. 25% of reviews on this keyboard is exactly that.

Très satisfait !
