RazerOrnata V3 Gaming Keyboard: Low Profile Keys - Mecha Membrane Switches - UV Coated Keycaps - Backlit Media Keys - 10 Zone RGB Lighting - Spill Resistant - Magnetic Wrist Wrest - Snap Tap

I am writing to share my positive experience with this product. Its aesthetically pleasing design and user-friendly interface make it a joy to use. The keyboard keys offer an optimal balance between softness and firmness, resulting in a comfortable typing experience. Furthermore, its ease of cleaning and robust construction contribute to its overall durability. The ergonomic design promotes comfortable and efficient use, enhancing the overall user experience. I highly recommend this product.

Now I have to say, I tend to have a love/hate relationship with keyboards, especially gaming keyboards. The "good" ones to me tend to be very chunky, big keys, etc. I keep thinking of an IBM Selectric typewriter, and if you don't know what that is then get off my lawn.Now my daily computer is a MacBook Pro. I use the Magic Keyboard when docked and, well, it's a low profile keyboard that I like very much. Going from that to a pro-level mechanical gaming keyboard is really a shift. So here, Razer seems to have solved my dilemma. This is a low profile keyboard but it does have a positive response that is expected from a gaming keyboard. But it also straddles a line between pure gaming and pure general use. In that it works, and works well. Think of this as a keyboard that isn't 100% focused on the gaming.Now then, about the functionality. It does what it's supposed to do, though some things are little absent. Media control buttons are just those...buttons. No scroll wheels or dials. Odd to me. Layout is generally as expected, and I'm old school enough to really want the ten key there. The clicking of the keys is a nice thing to me, as it does provide some positive feedback...the keyboard isn't as mushy as a purely membrane keyboard. It's not quite as positive though as purely mechanical either. Yes, I confirm the ad copy that this is a hybrid, which does require some compromise.So this all said, lighting is in ZONES and not individual keys. This gets me a bit perturbed as I kind of like WASD to be set off from the rest of the keyboard. The zones are mostly decent, in that I mean the two right hand zones follow the format of the keyboard, but after that I'm not seeing a rhyme/reason to the zone borders. And yeah, you have to use Synapse/chroma for the functionality and colors. That is, well, I'm not reviewing Synapse but I'll say I have a love/hate relationship with it.I like the wrist rest, and really recommend keeping it on there especially if you're using this as an everyday keyboard. I like having it there for general use, but in gaming I tend to remove it and rotate the keyboard slightly clockwise to make it more accessible with my left hand. It responds well enough for this amateur gamer. It has great build quality for the application, inasmuch as it's not designed to take a serious pounding but it IS sturdy enough to work well for most anything under that.Responsiveness is similarly appropriate. It's wired only, so take that into account...you'll need a USB port.So I like it. A lot. It's not a pro keyboard, but I'm not a pro. Accounting for the compromises, I don't see anything there that seriously impedes the mission of the product. Yeah, the zone lighting is a bit yuck, and the anti-ghosting...isn't there...but for shall we say motivated amateur use I like it a lot.

I was decided between this or the Cynosa V2 after the Cynosa Chroma I've been using for 4 years just died and decided on this. It works perfectly and I personally like how clicky it is despite being louder. The included wrist rest is nice and I find it easier to type on with the slimmer keys. Upgrading the firmware was nice and easy. A little disappointed that the colors of the keys cannot be changed individually as in the past, but Synapse works like a charm with this. I have heard about the non-included roll over and I noticed this with typing here and there. If you're like me and don't need to game with lots of keys pressed quickly, it should suit you fine.

Works great and feels like an upgrade from the older models in almost every way. Functionally its great, but why the hard plastic wrist pad? I work on computers all day and when I come home to game I do not want to rest my wrist on plastic. The older models had padding so I think its kind of silly that they did away with it.

I had a Razor Ornata that I absolutely loved for writing novels. The clicking sounded like popcorn when I typed, it was easy on my fingers, and I loved the color changing feature. I lost it in January 2023 to a house fire. I tried other Razor brand keyboards, did a lot of research on why the Ornata was different, and was overjoyed to see it listed on Amazon. I am now very happily clicking along as I write volumes. Even non-gamers will find something to love. It does make noise so probably not an in-office keyboard.

I purchased my first Razor keyboard in 2018 and finally decided it was time for an upgrade. This keyboard is low profile and the keys are very quiet. There are many lighting options to choose from, and you can even pick your own instead of using a preset option. Why did you pick this product vs others?:It’s durable and will last a long time. Even though I replaced my old one after 7 years, there was nothing wrong with it. The only part I had replaced in those 7 years was the wrist rest.

The lights are amazing, the build quality is decent, the keys feel smooth and are clicky in the best of ways.Not sure why or when, but randomly my "Z" and "B" Keys have broken off. I barely even use "Z" for anything.I've not even owned the Keyboard for long...

I love this thing. For a cheaper keyboard by Razer, this thing is pretty much perfect for gaming. Wired connection so there's no input lag, LEDs have adjustable brightness so you can actively choose to burn out your retinas in a pitch black room. Keys are incredibly responsive with a clicking noise that isn't particularly bothersome to people around you. The magnet strength could be a little better but wrist rest isn't constantly sliding around and if it's a concern, an extra long mousepad will do the trick.
