Based on 1 year's data from Feb 15, 2026 How it works
I have to disagree. My keyboard is a Razer Blackwidow Chroma Tournament Edition and its been used daily since 2016(counter strike mainly) and the only problem it has is that some LEDs dont show all the colors. I had a mamba and it had a double click problem, other than that no problems with anything. My mouse right now is a Deathadder v2 and its working as if it is brand new.
Hey all. currently I am rocking a Blackwidow Chroma V2 with orange switches and I would like to switch to a proper hot swappable keyboard. I ask here since the wiki was last updated in 2022. I would like to have a 100% keyboard (german layout) with silent tactical keyswitches, similar to orange switches from razer again, preferably a magnetic armrest, backlighting, and maybe a wireless option. Edit: The Budget is 150–250 Euro. I am currently eyeballing the Ducky one X but I am not sure about the new inductive switches and would like to have the input from some keyboard veterans. <3 Thanks all for your help and patience and I wish you a splendid week :)
My Razer Black Widow v2 has lasted like 5 years with no wear at all.
What breaks first in a mechanical keyboard? Bad question for my understanding maybe but I’m looking to replace my Razer Blackwidow Chroma V2. Not ever input is being detected on some keys, I’m assuming it’s the switch failing but I don’t want to/can’t replace them. Wanted to buy a new one, full size is non-negotiable, but (functionally) the only choice available for UK that’s ISO is the Keychron V6 which I can’t find from a UK retailer, and Q6 which has repeated reported problems with the actual PCB. Having spent more time than I wanted, I’m half willing to just buy another Blackwidow, but in 7 years time I’ll be in the same situation with an unusable keyboard because I can’t replace one key. Question being 1. What typically breaks first 2. Is Q6 Max good enough, even account for potential failure outside warranty (as Section 75 might not protect a “custom” item)
Same ive literally had mine since like 2013 waiting to upgrade but it wont die
I run Tenkeyless Razer Black Widow for Sc2 sometimes and I'm pleased, but I prefer a full

I literally just bought a new one after 10 years. I watched a ton of YouTube videos, rated a bunch at a Microcenter, and settled on the Keychron Q1 Max. Whereas I prefer a full keyboard I was sold on the idea of more desk/wrist space for my mouse. If you need a full sized one the Q6 Max was the other model I looked at. My previous model was a Razor Chroma Black Widow that was very clicky. The board is very heavy and solidly made. To my untrained self, the keys feel nice to press. It has wired, blue tooth and Wi-Fi; the latter of which I plan to use when switching to my work computer. LED lighting is nice but flawed. The colors are pretty but it doesn't light the whole key which means if you buy see through letter keys, the light won't shine through the lettering. The key shapes I'm not used and I can only describe it as feeling a bit tall and too close together. I'm not used to no number pad and the delete key being in a completely new location but I'm giving it a chance. I spent over an hour typing a short story last night, and it went pretty quick. I had more typos than usual but that's due to getting used to a new keyboard.
Mechanical keyboard clicking gets old really quick I was like you and liked the clicking sound and still do but I bought a razer Black widow with green tactile switches and the thing drives me nuts with how loud it is while typing now, if I was to buy another razer keyboard I would go with either the yellow or orange switches to still get that clicky sound but not as loud.
I actually prefer the longer travel, myself, but that might be because I have fairly big hands. I'm on an old Blackwidow with green switches, and I love it. this is my second blackwidow, and I've probably had this one for at least 3 or 4 years, and I game for at least 4-5 hours almost every night. It's starting to show it's age, though, so I'm debating between another Blackwidow or a SteelSeries Apex 7 with Blue switches (similar switches to the Razer Green).
