Having spent significant time with all three keyboards over the last few weeks, it's hard to decide which one is best. Each has its strengths and weaknesses, and at times the race is incredibly tight.Unfortunately, the weakest keyboard in this three way b...

With the BlackWidow Chroma V2 keyboard, Razer is incorporating its own technologies inside the mechanical switches, which are RGB enabled and have the advantage of the Chroma LED lighting system. The Chroma Configurator section is very easy to use compare...

Great, satisfying build quality, Orange Keyswitches are wonderfully quiet but satisfying, Hypnotic and customisable RGB settings, A wrist rest
Plastic build instead of another material, Bad placement of USB/aux passthrough
Without a doubt, there are cheaper RGB keyboards out there. There are also more expensive ones – but if you want guaranteed quality, then it's hard to go wrong with the Razer Blackwidow Chroma V2. It has everything you want from a mechanical RGB keyboard...
Pricey for feature set, Ho-hum macro editor, No dedicated media controls, volume dial, Login required to activate config app
This sturdy, handsome keyboard packs responsive Razer mechanical switches and attractive lighting. We'd just like to see some tweaks to the software, and a price drop. Read More...

The yellow switch version Razer BlackWidow Chroma V2 happened to surprise me as I have really been quite a fan of Cherry MX Brown and Blue keys. As someone who often plays with my friends via voice chat on Discord and TeamSpeak, I found that I could enjoy...

Abstract: I've been a fan of Razer ever since I bought my first Razer Blade laptop nearly 4 years ago. And, I've always been a fan of mechanical keyboards with their tell-tale “clickety-klack” sounds and tactile responsiveness. So I was naturally very hopeful that...
Comfortable keys, New Yellow switches work well, Pretty lighting, Intuitive software
Expensive, Very little new since the previous model
At the risk of being glib, if you want a thorough evaluation of the BlackWidow Chroma V2, go back and read our review of the first one, then tell yourself, “It now comes with a wrist rest.” It’s a comfortable keyboard with pretty good mechanical switches...

Comfortable wrist rest - magnetically attached, Chroma backlighting, 16.8-million colors, community development, 10 key roll-over anti-ghosting, USB pass-through, audio-out/mic-in jacks, 3 different top-notch mechanical switch options
Chroma backlighting not necessary for everyone, No media buttons, No USB-C for peripherals
Razer continues to lead the way with solid gaming accessories top to bottom. The BlackWidow keyboard line has been the benchmark for top quality Pro eGaming hardware since its launch in 2010. If the amount of use I personally got out of the 2014 Chroma ed...

The Razer BlackWidow Chroma V2 keeps everything we liked about the Blackwidow X (except for the metal body) while adding some cool features and a whole new set of switches...

The Razer BlackWidow Chroma V2 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is definitely more than a pretty keyboard! The On The Fly Macro Recording, the combination of Razer Green, Orange, and Yellow switches were quite effective and the tactile response and clicky noise...
