Mechanical key-presses are a satisfaction unto themselves. Backlit. USB and headphone/mic pass-throughs give ease-of-access to ports. Flexible macro and customisation system. Heavier than many laptops
The editors didn't like
Slightly confusing typeface on keys
Backlighting doesn’t apply to Shift keys
No light customising to go with macros
Backlighting doesn?t apply to Shift+ keys
Backlighting and a few spare ports don't justify the $40 premium over the non-Ultimate BlackWidow
Lacks resounding blueswitch feel
MMO gamers may want more macro keys
No more dedicated macro keys (though you can still use other keys to record macros)
Not much reason of an upgrade if you already have a BlackWidow Ultimate
Does not support Chroma SDK and no custom lighting presets from the community yet
Clack clack clack. don't expect this to be quiet. Or cheap

Taken on its own, the Razer Ultimate BlackWidow is a sturdy, responsive keyboard that will do what you want most out of a peripheral - fade into the periphery, especially if you disable the backlight. And as much as Razer would like you to believe it has...

It's a steep price to pay (though savvy users will be able to get it for AU$50 cheaper than the RRP), and the noise makes it unsuitable for communal areas, but for those who want one of the best keyboard responses around, the BlackWidow Ultimate should...

At $125, the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate is a competitively priced mechanical gaming keyboard in its range. We just wish Razer had done more to set this "Ultimate" edition apart from Razer's more affordable standard BlackWidow....
Looks even sexier with the Mamba and IroncladOf course, at the end of the day, if you’ve been reading this review all along, the same question remains: Should I buy the Razer BlackWidow Ultimate? If you already have a mechanical gaming keyboard, then ...
