Razer - BlackWidow Ultimate 2014

That's what I use at home, though with the green switches. It's great for gaming and for typing. I have one complaint, and it's that the switches aren't hot-swappable. This hasn't mattered yet, nor has it mattered on my Blackwidow 2014 that I've had for 10 years. Just note that size and switch type are both matters of preference. I like full-size 104+ keys, but linear switches make me want to die Edit: am I being downvoted for liking full size keyboards, or for not having problems with them? Like I'll take the downvote, but at least explain your position like an adult

I have the blackwidow 2014, it's called that way because until 2013 they were made by a good OEM keyboard maker with cherry switches, and the 2014 model switched to kailh, that were ok, but OEM keyboard changed too and they used the crappiest keycap I had. I bought it used for 30€ and I still regret it. The current meta for keyboard is either a hall effect (HE) keyboard but there are not enough choices on switches or a mechanical keyboard with latest refinement like gasket mount and no big brand offer that. If you go optical or HE keyboard, better go keychron than razer.

I switched from Razer to Logitech after having 3 Black Widow ultimate Razer keyboards fail. all 3 had the double key typing within 2 years.

I had my Naga Epic for I think that long if not longer. A blackwidow ultimate for 12 years too. They were both showing their age and had some issues so I went to Logitech stuff earlier this year.... I miss my high quality Razer stuff.

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).

I used to have a Razor Blackwidow keyboard as well. Then I switched to Alienware. Definitely want to go with CORSAIR next, and I was thinking K100 also! Thanks for sharing your experience with it.

I like Corsair keyboards but I find razer black widow series to be better all around.

Been my goto set since sc2 released. During beta though i was using an old, and tiny ps2 keyboard that was phenomenal and i doubt any other keyboard could beat in my eyes. Look for a smaller set of keys? Youll adjust to the bw quicker than you think, but as a recommendation, also get the naga so you dont have to move your keyboard hand all that much. It’s helped me fathoms over the years

Learned to play Zerg on a Blackwidow way back in the day still miss the black switches tbh. Heavy and clacky

ironically i am typing this from my razer black widow that i've had for a whole year and one month, whose a key and spacebar refuse to work consistently even when firmly pressed, after searching for a new keyboard to buy. it's driving me insane...................
