But it isn't the best price so how is it one of the best?
This or black widow elite??
Honestly have both, both are really good
But I love the stupid game integration that razer does with the keyboard
The Corsair K70 has better software. Both have good quality builds.
Other than that, it is really a subjective matter / personal preference. What may be better for one may not be better for another. Ultimately, it is up to the end user (you) what type of key switches you prefer and/or how fast you can adjust to a specific type of switch, depending on your use (how your keystrokes are, how wide your hand is, how you play a certain type of game, etc.). The switches of the Blackwidow Elite are more tactile and have a lwoer actuation force. Thus, it has a lower latency than the K70, which can be beneficial in competitive/esports or FPS games.
I had a k95. The media controls were brilliant. Nonstandard layout was annoying. The RGB was pretty spotty, ended up with a ton of dead LEDs. And then the switches started going. This one would be better, given they moved to Cherry, but I feel kinda scarred after that experience.
I have one of these but with MX brown switches. Love it……best keyboard i've ever owned.
Speaking of which, it's currently $189 on Amazon

I have browns at work and reds for gaming.
How are the browns for gaming?
I also use mine for work……no gaming.
Fair.
So, so ugly
Cheaper on eBay ($169.75), eBay ($162.22 w/ eBay Plus) and Amazon ($165)?
