Razer BlackWidow V3 vs Realforce R2

. Apperantly not! Since I live in Turkey my keycaps are in Turkish layout but there are no legit indications that the keycaps will be black paint coated for being Turkish layout. I contacted Razer and their answer was kind of funny and since technical support has no idea about what double shot keycap is they got kind of boastful unnecessarily by basicaly saying "yeah we upgraded our new keyboards with more durable double shot ABS keycaps"

I might buy the black version and swap the caps around eventually. The keycaps are very high quality. Much better than what you get on most boards. This also contributes to the amazing sound the board makes

As soon as I picked the keyboard up from the packaging, I knew I was going to return it. It feels cheap and flimsy. I got this keyboard as my full time work keyboard and just hated how it felt and how rough the key texture was, while the keys feel hollow and cheap. The left shift key was really stiff compared to my other keyboard

This one doesn't have that, so it makes it a little bit more compact and I'll just measure it up against this Corsair one and you can see it's got. It...

This keyboard works great, and looks very nice. the build quality is great, exactly what you expect for the price, I went for the green switches and they are great . The only issue is there is a known compatibility issue of this exact keyboard with windows 10 where the windows search bar bugs out whenever you restart your pc, and you have to unplug the keyboard and restart the pc again and then plug it after the pc is on . you can look this up, and apparently it is an issue with windows trying to update the keyboard drivers everytime it boots up, the only solution is to manually update the keyboard bios from razer's website, the problem is they don't have any support files or downloads available for this model in particular so you are pretty much stuck with this bug

I thought I was going crazy considering a $350 keyboard but after going down the rabbit hole that is mechanical keyboards, i figured this was the last step. I was looking for a new work laptop after my old mx cherry red keyboard started falling apart. I wanted the new board to be tactile, semi-quiet, and good quality. This keyboard checks all those boxes and more

So far I've only found two keyboards that match my criteria: the Logitech G915 and the Razer Blackwidow V3 Pro, but both are seriously expensive. The Filco Convertible 2 is really close but doesn't have backlighting. The Ducky Freedom looks like it would be perfect but seems to have been put on hold. Other than that, I'm struggling to find anything

RGB and backlit is very helpful as I work in the dark. I’m going to be using this keyboard for work mostly and very little programming.

Except that one needs some *real* crappy software to use all of its features^(\*), and the other one... Well, there are some serious complaints about Razer quality, and, being a mechanical one, it's not very quiet

I'm using a realforce Realforce r2 pfu for a bit now, and I'm finding it hard to come up with reasons not to keep it. It's really pricey but man is it good
