Wooting - Wooting One

Depends what you mean by best. All will have similar performance. Wooting has the best software but you can get keyboards like the MadLion for £40 which have better performance across the board. It just isn’t worth buying Wooting at the moment unless you want analog output which is only supported by Wootlity and Synapse. For 75% the K2 HE is a nice board for performance and quality sound/feel. If you only care about performance the Huntsman V3 Pro has the least dead zone space and better control over the switches in stock performance due to weight and stability. Hall sensors are extremely cheap to produce now. When Steelseries revived Hall effect PCBs were quite expensive to produce. Depends what you want honestly.

Sayo works but I had a bad experience with it (started double clicking in like 2 weeks) so I’d recommend a wooting uwu it’s like 40 bucks which is a bit more than the sayo, but in my experience wootings are built like tanks so it’ll probably last longer. (Keep in mind, sayos are literally made by one dude in china, wooting has a whole supply chain and guaranties certain quality)

Wooting or Keychrons Hall effect keyboards are amazing, I thought it wouldn’t change that much but I really don’t like normal keyboards after it.

I would rather buy a Wooting board than a mass-produced gaming branded boards

wooting is your board bro. my jitter peeks have been fire with HE

So the only advantage of this technology is the sound they make? Honestly I cannot care less about the sound of the key, I did not buy a Wooting for the sound it makes.

probably some wooting or geon venom+ws flux

wooting is the premier hall effect gaming keyboard brand with the best software and maturity, and the geon venom is a barebones self-assembly hall effect keyboard with similarly great performance but more customisability.

Nope. I have a wooting and can play just as good on some old school membrane 😆

For a magnetic board right now, I've tried a couple and sent them back, they all have stupid software and the whole point to a magnetic board is to fiddle with the configuration all the time anyway (okay technically incorrect but you know what I mean) you better get something with good software. So that basically means Wooting because Wootility, or Keychron because qmk.

Wooting keyboard will help you a little with counter-strafing but actually doing it is still up to you. I've used cheap keyboards since forever and a few months ago i bought a G PRO X 60 which doesn't have rapid triggers and all that nice stuff that wooting has but it is a good keyboard, since buying this 'more expensive' keyboard i can land hard jumps more consistently like jumping from redroom on the edge towards heaven(on ancient), however i did not notice an improvement in counter-strafing (because i've played the game for a long time and i do it right without even thinking about it, leetify's always rating my counter strafing in the high 80 and most of the time around 90-95+). The only difference between the cheap keyboards i've used and the G PRO X 60 is that it's a little more responsive/faster and pressing multiple keys at once just feels more "accurate" (the latter reason is probably why i can hit the hard jumps more consistently) However, i do not recommend the G PRO X 60 because it's a little too expensive for what it has to offer, you can probably find a better keyboard for the same price as the G PRO X 60.

If you have a really fast monitor and a good pc try getting 8000hz polling rate alongside with your rapid trigger and snap tap or whatever. I would personally pick wooting over razer

I'm in the same boat with my Logitech G15. I miss that beast but it died. No keyboards have that little flip out screen anymore, and especially not ones that use hall effect switches like my darling Wooting. (G15 was just a membrane jobby) Everyone wants _small_ keyboards these days. Eurgh. My desk should look like Nasa mission control. Not some feng shui portrait 

Analog Keyboards if you're planning on playing anything but WoW Even besides that, the macro the multi-layer keybind possiblities of Wooting for example are endless, wouldn't trade mine for anything else Mice kinda different tho, if you plan on playing anything else (like shooters for example) think about maybe investing in two seperate mice, one for WoW and one for shooters - if all you're playing is WoW just go for the Scimitar or the Aerox

Get a wooting. It's the only gaming keyboard worth buying.

wooting is the best for cs imo but any mechanical keyboard will suffice

Just don't buy Wooting, Razer, Logitech, MonsGeek etc. 'namebrand' HE keyboards and they'll be affordable. MadLions, Aula Hero84 HE, DrunkDeer

Correct, Wooting's software is the best

Wooting or steelseries apex pro. Every other keyboard is a waste of money if you mainly play fps. I bought the apex pro about a year ago and I cannot stress the difference between this and classical mechanical keyboards enough. They feel like trash going back to.

Bro you don't know what you are talking about. Wootings keyboard or the steel series apex Pro is a game changer and a completely different experience than standard mechanical keyboards with the classic red or brown switches. If you are a serious cs player you absolutely should consider buying such a keyboard instead of the other trash gaming keyboards that exist.

Steel Series apex Pro. Amazing switches and the same technology as the wooting keyboards. Any other mechanical keyboards suck in comparison. I used cherry reds before for over 10 years.

Doesn’t bother me to not have the key labels. My Wooting keyboard is the best I’ve owned.

Any good board with hall effect or optical switches. Analogue gives you far more precision than digital switches. Lower input latency as well. Wooting is the best in terms of software, and IMO worth the money. There are much cheaper boards like the Epomaker HE80 if you just want to try the feel of hall effect switches. Last time I tried these cheaper brands the input latency was excellent but the rapid trigger support and build quality was mediocre.

don’t buy a budget hall effect keyboard, all the switches suck on them and they have horrible latency, js save for a wooting or apex pro tbh

i mean i bought 2 budget hall effect keyboards (i collect “gaming” keyboards) and from my experience they sounded and felt horrible, key caps were cheap and got worn out very easy, but you can also just replace those, it’s not a big deal, and finally the latency was horrible. for example, in fortnite i average around 10 ping and as a very mechanical player, i felt a huge latency and played better on my razer huntsman, because it had significantly less latency even if it didn’t have the adjustable actuation. if you want my advice, don’t buy one and save for a wooting tbh. or, for cheaper an apex pro mini. not worth the 50+ dollars your gonna spend after tax and shipping

A little strange, that you’re considering TKL and 60% at the same time. If you don’t mind ordering from AliExpress, take a look at Weikav K-ONE 80. Don’t even consider Steelseries or Razer, if you care about typing feel/sound. I can’t justify paying 200$ for plastic case Wooting too. iqunix boards are fine, but overpriced for what they offer compared to the competitors.

Yeah, if you don't want to deal with Ali, then just stick with Wooting. Chinese boards are way overpriced, when bought outside of Ali/Tao. Official sites are good example, when something like ATK EDGE 60/68 priced almost 100$ higher (shipping is also not included) on official site than on Taobao. https://preview.redd.it/q9sep5wvnpcf1.png?width=1505&format=png&auto=webp&s=e6f3cfd113b58c687a30c76381330f5ef7617f8f

Do not buy keyboards from Razer. They are terrible. Given the options, go Wooting 100%

just get a wooting keyboard.

I’m so confused how “the market has so many options” the market does not have many cheaper options for the only features that actually help in tac FPS games. Razer has one now? It’s the Same price but without years of reviews so it’s uncertain and Wooting is reliable we all know it genuinely gives competitive advantage. If your to buy a keyboard and truly value performance over all else isn’t it like the only option? If you truly value performance over anything else. Rapid trigger with magnetic keys are the only thing about a keyboard that really gives you an advantage right? I’m unaware of anything else that could possibly matter than true performance, rapid trigger and reliability?

Wait I’m confused I’m not a wooting fanboy I’ve just genuinely never encountered this argument? Anywhere I’ve ever looked at people who only speak about rapid trigger performance have always said get the wooting? What makes Wooting at all lesser in anyway than another brand of rapid trigger? Is there something I deadass don’t know? I’ve never seen another argument that could possibly matter so I’m genuinely lost? If you don’t care about sound or feel or looks, anything like that just the performance of my rapid trigger what keyboard is more reliable?

120-160$ to insure you have the best possible keyboard on the market…. It’s the price of the highest performance mice…. A third or less of the price of the best monitors…. A tenth of the price of the top tier performance pc’s…. I just buy the damn keyboard and stop loookig for alternatives that COULD be equal

The only complaints about wooting are like price, little customization, sound? Shitty plastic case for 160$ but nothing about performance or reliability

Latency is a good argument thank you:) the first useful thing you’ve said. And yes all research points to wooting that I’ve ever seen. It’s the most tested customizable and incredibly reliable state of the art rapid trigger and that is all I care about. These other two you stated I just saw don’t even have consistent latency measurements by independent parties yet, unknown reliability. And way worse and less extensive software. Wooting is stilll yet to be dethroned. So you’re a moron.

***Endgame Gear KB65HE*** if youre looking for something 60% and budget. Any from the ***Wooting*** lineup, they're the go to for hall effect and essentially made it a 'thing'. ***Steelseries Apex Pro series*** if you want something more 'premium' with lots of software capabilities. Theres lots of hall effect keyboards, you can find them as cheap as 40 bucks on amazon in the UK, but i wouldnt settle for less than the Endgame KB65HE. All that I mentioned are hall effect and if you want to prioritise movements, you need hall effect.

Depends on what you want. Generally, avoid gaming brands: Razer (exception for the Blackwidow V4 75% regular and Pro, those are good), Steelseries (except the Apex Pro, maybe, but even then). If you genuinely want the best gaming keyboard you can get, get a Wooting. It's great quality, repairable, their support is amazing, and it's objectively the best for gaming. Look into Hall Effect switches to understand Wooting's advantages. Wootings are not wireless though. If you want something that sounds and feels good, and don't care about 1ms extra reponse time or Hall Effect switches, Keychron is probably your safest bet. They sound, feel and last 100x better than Logitech's junk and cost like 10$ extra. Their wireless is also great. Generally, though, the best thing you can do is buy a hotswap keyboard. Hotswap means you can swap out the switches at any point and therefore if they break, you can just get any new switches you want. It effectively makes a board last forever, unless you break the PCB. TL;DR: Look into Keychron for keyboards similar to Logitech in price, except they are objectively better in every way, and look into Wooting for the best keyboards mechanically, i.e. best reponse times, best switch design, best support, 100% most durable.

If you game a lot, especially in fps games, it'll be a pretty big advantage. I've had a wooting & the advantages were pretty noticable. that being said I still switched back to my custom keyboard after a few months solely because it feels way better, but I am a pretty big linear switch hater.

Wooting is the only option

Got a wooting 2 weeks ago, it's so much more superior then a regular mechanical keyboard it's not even close, it feels so much more responsive with rapidtrigger and counter strafing is definitely easier

I have a Wooting, I love it compared to the previous 3 SteelSeries keyboards I had/have. I do however think it's a little overpriced at the end of the day. I'd probably go with a Keycron HE today if I was shopping

Wooting he. Still the best performance you can get out of a gaming keyboard

Ah yes the rapid trigger and adjustable actuation points Me with a Wooting keyboard: so you’re a man of culture as well

If you want best, wooting is basicly only option

Wooting

You can do it with wooting and you will have warranty...

Well you pay less for no coverege of warranty and software can be stopped updating at any time because new model came out. While wooting supports all their products with same features

Venom dosent have controller mode and dks. You can buy module with only pcb plate and stabs and use any case switches you want. Tho if you buy module u have most popular switches with discount already no need of lekkers. And wooting dosent need deadzone settings because it does auto calibration all the time

Well you can make wooting sound creamy but you need pay little bit extra for mods

It is not worth it for that price at all.. for 200€ you can buy wooting which is better but not wireless. Those keyboards you listed should be max 100€ to make them even worth

Software, warranty, support and modding support.

Wooting never made wireless keyboard btw

Well i own wooting, I would highly recommend it

If you want best, grt wooting

Get wooting. Wooting keyboard

Which are worse than wooting..

Well get wooting because it only have decent implementation

Wooting firmware and software is still top, they always will lead and everyone will try to copy them. Most of halleffect keyboards do not support analogue (gamepad emulation), only wooting does that. Also if you want mod anything wooting is 99% compatible because parts are made to be compatible with wooting including switches. And Yes wooting is outperforming every halleffect keyboard because of consistiency. And if you want quick keyboard, you need good firmware

Now, in gaming halleffect is a king. I would recommend wooting, i have their keyboards already for few years and they are great with eveything so far. Also modding those keyboards is quite easy. (and if you dont like case or mounting style there are github with case files etc so you can make your own) .

Also op, wooting is dutch company. In fps games you would get most gains from rapid trigger and from socd (if it is not banned in ur game) it makes that actuation point is Dynamic. Also it is very responsive (though if you are on lowest possible settings like 0.1mm actuation point and 0.1m rapid trigger you could experience misclicks)

Going with wooting is always safer choice tbh due to their warranty policy

well depends on what you are looking for in a keyboard, i wouldnt recommend getting one unless you're a pro or you have tons of spare money to spend. I've got one wooting sitting there collecting dust while using meletrix keyboard for everything including valorant apex etc, ( meletric just sound way better ).... the difference is very minor to me, the only thing that i would notice a difference is hitting instant slide in apex.

Personally I love Wooting.

True, good point, there is other options now. When I bought my Wooting there wasn’t much anything else in the market. Basically just Boog75 which was worse and more expensive.

wootings are good boards. I'd prefer them over logitech and razer all day.

I used a Logitech G910 for 10 years - a good keyboard, but with buggy software. And since magnetic keys are better for gaming, I switched to **Wooting**. It doesn't require software (the settings are stored on the keyboard), but you can't set up macros. If you really need to, you can always use AHK, which is more stable than any software from peripheral.

I’ve been using the keyboard for a while and although the sound is crappy, I like how it feels. The magnetic switches just feels like heaven for me. The sounds can be improved by lubrication and some mods which makes it sound pretty good. But when we’re talking about if it is “worth it”. No, ofc it’s not “worth it”. It’s made of cheap parts, it doesn’t sound good, the only merit is he which now other keyboards have for cheaper. But the thing is, it’s Wooting. Using the keyboard makes me feel good because it is Wooting. Therefore it will boost your gaming performance in other games as well lol. If I’m happy, I do better in my games :D

Wooting works prefectly, the software too

I’ve had a lot of keyboards and would say tactiles are nicest for typing, but I currently don’t have a single keyboard with tactiles. I currently main a wooting which feels great on Celeste.

Plz no razer keyboard 🫣. I would recommend the wooting as it is an amazing company. High quality products and it really gives u an competitive advantage.

it's not the best keyboard, it's the best software. there are far better built keyboards that feel and sound better for way cheaper, but without the same great software. a lot of people care more about not spending $175 for a rattly plastic 60% than about how easy it is to switch your rgb or actuation settings.

its HE technology is not the fastest nor the most overkill precise, even though the difference is small. it also (in my opinion) does not sound near as good as something like Hummingbird68 which is not even half the price. your only valid points are modding and software, which i agree with

a large portion of equally priced and cheaper alternatives come in metal cases. wooting is super overpriced. where are these benchmarks?

of which you can easily find alternatives that dont have these issues, like the previously mentioned hummingbird68, or made68, or nuphy he boards, or iqunix boards, etc. wooting is good, but you're about 2 years late to calling it the best

in the HE space, wooting dominates the market. i dont get what you're trying to do. yes, nuphy HE boards have better response times... thats what ive been saying

i did, and no one would accept it. i agreed that wooting is the best option for customer support, software, and software support. its not my fault people kept claiming better response times and accuracy when that's not true.

Wooting keyboard is worth the money, some people swear by expensive mice like Lamzu or high end Logitech mice, Personally don't like spending hundreds on a small PCB and some plastic but to each their own. Glorious Model O has been a fantastic mouse for me and I used the G305 for years.

Wooting. The software alone is far above majority of the kb softwares out there. It can simulate even console controllers if you're into that. Actually I don't think any other software even comes close to the customization of it. The Hall Effects switches are nice. If your competitive I recommend it more. Personally. It's not that expensive for a keyboard. Especially with everything else going up in price, I think their price is more than justified. Is it for everyone? No. Im willing to bet majority of gamers don't need it.

I have two separate keyboards, one for gaming and one for work. Also have two separate mouse for the same reason. I really believe you should separate the two. Otherwise you'll have something that sort of works for each and never truly feel comfortable with what you're using. I have an ergonomic Logitech keyboard and the MX master 3s mouse for work. For gaming I use the ninjitsu Sora V2 mouse and the wooting keyboard

Gaming and Typing keyboards are sorta at odds now, as HE keyboards use magnetic switches, they dont feel as good but are better for gaming (at the pro level only rly) due to its new tech. For Gaming//HE’s - Wooting is ‘premium’ for its software specifically. All HE keyboards feel generally the same when typing, the software and case material is the only real difference. For Typing - I’d say the Rainy75 is the nicest keyboard you can get fully prebuilt for ‘typing’, and unless you’re literally the top .5% of an FPS, the HE wont make a real difference. I’m 25k Premier in CS2, and hit high diamond in The Finals and couldnt really maximize the benefits from HE, I prefer normal switches even if its .01ms slower

There are other keyboards that sound and feel better for a lower cost. I use wooting for valorant but meletrix for other games/productivity for aesthetics, sound and feel

I've liked my Wooting a lot.

Best gaming keyboard seems to be a Wooting. A 4 year warranty tells me a lot about a company. What’s your budget? I just went from a steel series Apex Pro TKL Gen 2 to Keychron Q1 HE. Have a Wooting 80HE on the way so I’ll keep either the Wooting or Keychron. Steel Series is 100% going back. It felt good upgrading to the Steel Series but the Keychron is on another level.

Software, reliability, and brand name. When you play a game like CS2 and see that over 75% of pros use a Wooting or Razer, you’re more likely to purchase the same. Same logic behind Logitech GPX 2 Superlight. It’s $150+, dozens of mice with almost identical shape, faster sensors, lighter, better switches, half the price, but people continue to buy it because it’s Logitech, decent software, and used a ton by pros. Also one really nice thing about Wooting from my experience is their customer support and transparency.

if u have budget go for wooting so you don't have to think twice about upgrading or anything

wooting should be by far the most reliable in terms of performance, they might not boast most polling or scan rate but non of that matter if the keys of some boards randomly press on their own or something.

Just get a wooting keyboard it s the bestest in the market

Wooting has, *by far*, the best software on the market. Sadly, their hardware quality doesn't quite match their steep asking price. It's not bad, but you can get better for less ... just with worse software. If competitive gaming is the main purpose of the keyboard, the Wooting is hard to beat right now. For typing and normal gaming, I'd probably stick with mechanical for the time being.

Wooting. Thats the most high end tech keyboard out there. There are other magnetic switches provider but Wooting is the only one with a software able to modify the key travel for better reaction times.

As far as im concerned; Wooting are the pioneers. In fact, Nuphy uses a chinise brand of magnetic switches(Magnetic Jade Pro switches) and Wooting uses their own fabricated and researched switches(Lekker switches). So yeah. Wooting will always be the top as of now with this tech.

Wooting... For people that say, why get wooting when there are so many options. Wootility software is awesome and the keyboards are super solid. I tried another brand and you had to choose to enable one feature or the other, but couldn't have both and ultimately it was not as well developed software. I have an 80HE and love it.

Depends on needs. I bought a wooting because I game. I didn't think i'd notice much compared to my corsair cherry keys but there is definately a difference in speed.

After doing tons of research, watched as many YouTube videos I could find (seriously) and read through hundreds of Reddit/Forum recommendations and I’ve come to one conclusion. Wooting is the single and only answer for HE keyboards. All these HE keyboards will never live up to a good custom board nor even a good prebuilt (rd75, rainy75, bridge75, HHKB, etc etc). The only thing you’re buying an HE keyboard for is for the gaming software, and Wooting has the undisputed best software. Side note. I currently main an HHKB Type-S and HHKB Studio for non gaming. I originally bought a M1 V5 HE based on recommendations. This was the wrong decision, just passing my research along to the next person. Feel free to do whatever you’d like with it. Good luck with your decision.

Buying Wooting in 2025, you really have to believe that HE provides something for the typical player, besides marketing slogans.

Yes, I wouldn't have written it otherwise. For 99% of people, HE doesn't give anything, because it basically only helps in competetive games like CS or Fortnite. But if you don't play at a high level, it won't give much either, because the keyboard won't give a skill. In games other than FPS it doesn't give anything at all, because, for example, I play WoW, PoE, Diablo, various RPG games and in each game the HE effect is completely unnecessary, for example, in PoE turning on the gamepad simulation, changes the whole interface under the gamepad, so the game becomes completely unplayable, because the cursor disappears, the rapid trigger itself doesn't give anything either, because whether I press a key with an activation of 0.1ms or 4ms won't make me kill mobs faster. In racing games, it is cheaper to buy a gamepad, and if someone plays more professionally, he will buy steering wheels.

Well said "Are you good enough to notice or take advantage of a 1ms difference in performance?" In my opinion, I doubt that even professionals will notice it and that it will have any impact on their performance. In my case, I chose Wooting because of the package offered. It was the only HE sold locally, the software, solid build quality, guaranteed future support, etc. And personally, I think it's silly to wonder whether Wooting is still "the king" or not. That's a very subjective thing. What really matters is that Wooting is still a good and reliable option.

I've owned, tried and used a LOT of keyboards.. Currently have an MMK, Keychron, and a Wooting among note of my mechanicals.. and prefer my BlackWidow hands down. Also have a few different Logitech and SteelSeries and a Corsair.. not a fan of any of them

If your going for hall effect then the wooting HE is the best in raw performance along with Razers optical in the huntsman. For actually using the wooting would be better. Nuphy field 75 HE, Halo 65HE, Wooting 80& 65, keychron Q1 he, k4 he, or Lemokey P1 HE. I like the Lemokey since it's keychron with the same webapp, it's full metal, it costs ~$160 which makes it middle of the price pack but not as expensive as a metal wooting. The L5 is similar with slightly better polling rate. The Nuphy Field 75 is also good, but it's a bit gamery and plastic.

Just get a wooting. Razers are over priced for what they are. Wooting is expensive. But they are the best keyboards

Get a Wooting and don't think about it again, otherwise you're gonna end up with 5 keyboards in the closet you don't use

Anything is better than Razer if we’re talking a keyboard used for gaming and you dont want to throw money away. Wooting all the way. Razer markets too hard, lies far too much, and thinks all gamers are idiots.

Was gonna say, I recently made the switch from Razer to a Wooting keyboard and oh boy the difference is insane, I feel like I’m controlling my character in real time. I’m glad I made the switch.

I really love the wooting products. They use linear switches with hall sensors, meaning that it is insane precise and the switches itself degrade slower than other switches (with the latter beeing less important, as keyboards tend to break down before the switches do, at least in a hot swap system). They have a 60, 80 and 100% profile, very nice optional software and a great customer support. I am not planning on ever buying a keyboard from a different company.

getting a wooting is always a good option, corsair also makes and HE keyboard now under the k75 tlk

If pricing isnt an issue i would get a wooting. If you play competive games its worth it.

Same and especially because of SOCD. The movement is so much better.

I can't stand the huntsmen's sound or feel. It just feels like a cheap, rattly mess compared to my Wooting. However coming from a membrane, I could see it seeming like a huge upgrade. There are just so many better keyboards around the same price or cheaper.

For counter strafing for example you have at least have an understanding of the mechanic to execute it, however wooting will help you execute the counter strafing mechanic by making it easier to deactivate and activate keys when ever you want (you don't have to worry about the actuation points) making it easier to counter stafing and not press the two movement keys (a and d at the same time) a player who is VERY good (pro level for example) will likely have near perfect counter strafing regardless of the keyboard due to the amount of hours they put in and skill they have.

Do you play cs? like I said you still have to understand the learn the mechanic but something like the wooting will just help you execute it / allow a greater margin of error with deactivating and activating keys, if you want you can have it so as soon as you press your finger down the key registers and as soon as you let go it de registers, you don't have to worry about the actuation point but you still have to understand the mechanic

I would just say it's the next step in keyboards, you either press the key or you don't there is no in between, things like snap tap are what I would say are different

Just get a Wooting. They’re good for everything and fit within your budget.

What I'm trying to say is there won't be any improvement to your gaming performance when upgrading a keyboard, HE keyboard is just a gimmick. Even with Wooting you still won't play better than playing with what you're having right now and I'm saying that as an owner of 2 Wooting board.

Damn, I would've said Wooting if it weren't for "no top brands". My Epomaker EP84 was really solid until I got my Wooting. Got it with some nice matte black and gray keycaps. It looks slick, I got a little bored of the squished together layout, but I still like it, it's hot-swappable and it's pretty cheap all things considered.

For keyboards wooting for sure. Their wootility is either web app or downloadable to your machine, and they have Linux specific instructions on how to make keyboard visible for the software

I recently bought a 2nd hand wooting and it’s been so good to use. Before that I was using a hi ground 65 and that was great too but the wooting feels so good for cs

Wooting is worth the money, imo it's the best pre-built keyboard money can buy

To an extent. I own an analog keyboard (Wooting) and I must say that Rapid Trigger makes a noticeable difference, feels a lot more responsive. Its not going to be the difference between being bad or good at the game tho.
