This is a really well done comparison from features to editing. Excellent job.
Got the K100 gold edition, and with a lowered goldish glow on the keys, this thing looks amazing. I just use the keypress color change anyways so that keys are lighting up red, but that is just because I have so many use cases where I need to see what I typed before hitting enter due to switching between multiple languages. Had the Orion Spark since maybe 2015-2016 and had to switch it out due to the switches failing. This is hands down the best keyboard I have ever used. Even typing speed has improved.
I had a Logitech G915TKL, just changed to this Corsair 100k and I falling in love with it! Is much more pleasant to type, the typing sound is way better, the key press feelings also much more features and even costs less... Amazing keyboard. I recommend it to everyone... Razer is good too, but more expensive and more "slim"
I purchased my huntsman v2 analog through amazon renewed for around 110. Came brand new and has been an absolutely wonderful keyboard to use, no issues whatsoever. I put crystal keycaps on it to increase the vibrancy of the rgb
Great comparison!!! I will be going with Corsair's K100
Pretty nice infos, just bought the Corsair K 100 and I hope it will last me as long as my old one. Bought the logitech g 710 right around the release in 2012 that technically still is in a good spot, but the old cheap keycaps (which I lost 2 from the F key over the years) are not nice to touch anymore, and the keys used the most are slowly starting to get some input problems.
I hope with the build quality and especially the good quality keycaps and optical switches this one will last me even longer than the old one did. Then the price is well worth it =)
Already bought the K100 OPX. (Previously I have been 100% Logitech) I'm just a bit of a Corsair fan so it fits in with the rest of what I have. But both boards are great and I'm sure anyone would be happy to get either as a gift!
Is it worth it to go opto mechanical vs mechanical? I still have a blackwidow lite with orange switches, I also have 2 others razer keyboard with yellow and green switches, and out of the three I prefer the orange switch, just preference. I stop buying keyboards for like 3 years and I am wondering if I missed something.
Got the K100 Cherry MX version. Coming from a Blackwidow Chroma V2, all I can say is it's hands down the best keyboard I've ever used. I also love how the lighting is diffused in the K100. It's vibrant even in a very bright room, but in the dark it doesn't hurt your eyes at all. I've seen some other keyboards with exposed switch designs where the lighting just spills out so much it becomes annoying in the dark. For the K100 it's just perfect for me. Not sure how I feel about the iCue control wheel. Haven't really used it and it does feel gimmicky. Great video by the way :)
I got it with the opx Switches and the control Wheel is awesome. You just have to use it correctly
Why did you get the MX one?
@@seamistseamist Probably out of familiarity. My old Black Widow keyboard served me for 6 years+ before I accidentally spilled coffee on it. I can't remember which model but it was before the one with the green backlight. It had those MX Blue switches. I put it back in its box, and a year later I decided to disassemble it and clean the coffee inside. And now it's fully functional again lol. As a replacement I bought the Black widow Chroma V2 with the razer yellow switches, but less than a year in I had so many issues with it. Keys were getting unresponsive. And believe me, I take care of my peripherals/hardware, so I was very disappointed when that thing started malfunctioning. So I guess what I'm saying is that I'm confident in the reliability of the MX switches. The MX silvers are fantastic. Next time I'll give the optical switches a try :)
@@twisterius1141 Does your control wheel lighting sync up with the rest of your keys? I can't remember when it started happening but my wheel and the two buttons beside it decided to not sync up with the rest. I've updated all the firmware and software. Nothing works. Other than that, the it works perfectly
Holy shit huge upgrade
Your are a pretty awesome RUclipsr!!
I wish Razer would do a analog version of the Huntsman TE, that would be a serious competitor of the Apex Pro, I feel like what steers people away from razers optical purple is the fact that the sound like you're forging a sword on a anvil every time yo press them
& even a Analog version of the Huntsman Mini would be incredibly dope but we all know Razer would aggressively price these new keyboards drastically if they came to reality
@@dilloon7626 i literally wouldn't care car a razer version of the apex is my dream lol
@@brock7682 until Steelseries unleashes a Apex Pro 2 upon us all👀💀
I have a Huntsman Elite V2 and a SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL. Both Keyboards are much quieter than other mechanical and even optical keyboards. I think the SteelSeries is quieter. I love the multi actuation switches (both keyboards) and the ability to "set sensitivity" if needed. My personal choice for overall key feel while depressing goes to the SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL, just that "little bit" smoother/silkier in the key depress. Not to say the Razer feels bad, I bought the SteelSeries for my MSI laptop after using the Razer and not having a TKL or mini keyboard to fit in my laptop bag.
Yeez
I just bought the k100 really like the board. The switches take some getting use to but I really like the deeper sound of the huntsman.
Can you write well on the Corsair? Or is it to fast?
@@propanther9529 it was too fast for me, actually pissed me off sometimes lmao i took it back for that reason
Ok thanks 🙏
@@MrLOUTER94 the opx version? is the actuation too little? Do you prefer linear or clicky switches?
@@Artyt2024 linear or clicky is personal taste, I always get the linear version. Comparing to Red, I like OPX version more, it feels wonderful from very first touch and I spend no time to get farmiliar with it. I will never go back to cherry :D
I recently bought the K100 OPX Optical - AXON, I am looking forward to it !! IN 10 days, I currently have the Blackwidow Chroma V1 and the cklicky green has me ruined .. I want to go
Crazy how expensive these things get, yet, they're not a terrible investment if you decide to keep it until they fall apart. I've been using my K95 since 2017 and it's been a great keyboard, and it still working like brand new. I'll probably wait for 3 more years and maybe I'll finally upgrade, but yeah $250 seems kinda crazy unless you keep them for more than 5 years.
similar thing here i got blackwidow ultimate for 5 years still works like back then and feels just good . and 1 thing to mention i get so used to it that when i touch another keyboard i dont like it simply because i am so used to my blackwidow .
I have both, but I cannot use the Analog V2 because I get phantom keys. The keys will sometimes think they’re held down even after I release them. I have video of it, I’ve presented it to Razer, and all they can offer is an RMA. The problem is Synapse, when I close it all of the issues go away. No more phantom keys until I start Synapse again
My local Razer distributor (Asia) does not offer RMA services as they don't have techicians to do repairs. What they do is check the serial number for warranty records, replicate the issue to verify its indeed faulty and just give you a sealed new replacement on the spot (if they have stock at their service centre). That's one of the reasons I like Razer products - very solid after sales service. It's tempting to get them cheaper at Amazon but the lack of distributor warranty is the reason I choose to buy at higher cost from local retailers.
I own the K100 RGB. The wristpad was so snugged to the keyboard that it accidently locked the lower keys of the keyboard in place, after I pressed them. I placed two very small pieces of plastic as spacers on the wristpad so that the spece between wristpad and keyboard was a little wider. Now it functiones great. Thats a pretty big design mistake for such an expensive keyboard.
Other than the problem I wrote about, this K100 is by far the best keyboard I have ever owned. Had to get used to the light touch but that did not take long.
I have the K100 and I constantly have the wrist mount going up and causing the spacebar, Ctrl and alt getting stuck down. Returning it and getting the Huntsman
I've got the K100 after watching a couple of top 5 keyboards and seeing reviews online.
I gotta say its a brilliant keyboard , it just feels premium, the metallic sound wheel its so convenient to use , i managed to switch from my corsair headset volume adjust to the keyboard one in a day , the additional buttons with metallic feeling they include in the box is a win
The RGB is the best ive seen in a keyboard ever , i sometimes stop and stare at the effect like a kid.
Highly recommend the K100
cherry or optical
I got the razer Huntsman V2 analog mainly because I like having a justable actuation for linear switches and I'm more of a tactile and clicky switch person, that was basically the main selling point for me was the adjustable actuation can I just love the sound of the Huntsman chassis with the switches
I bought the Corsair K100 RGB Keyboard it is the best
What do you think of The K100 as of the end of 2021?
@@SpaceAdmiral792t yo bud! So I recently went through a round of keyboards. I am a picky sob with keyboards. I’ve tried the k100 with opx and k70 tkl.both are VERY pingy which annoyed the crap out of me and made them feel cheap. The razer analog was awesome. The switches had an awesome thock sound and no ping and it felt like an end game board (new razer user here). However I ended up with the apex pro tkl because of the size. If you were not sure of the two which to pick I would personally pick the razer but that’s my preference.
Another great vid
Bought the the Razer Huntsman V2. Thank you for your excellent videos.
Same! And i'm absolutely loving it, typing is a point i have to work on though, haha. Still getting used to it.
@@user-rk1qy3so2h I’m thinking of picking it up tomorrow, I notice a couple people mention the actuation force on the switches is heavy, is this true? If so, so how heavy?
@@legodude275 Its true that the new switches are quite heavy, but you'll get used to it. From my unscientific testing i would say the actuation force lays around ~43 grams and the Bottom out force (Like the weight if you press the whole button down) is ~60 grams.
@@legodude275 They are heavier than we are used to from Razer. I've had the keyboard for about 3 days now but I've gotten used to the somewhat heavy keys already.
@@user-rk1qy3so2h good to know! Is there still pinging when keys bottom out with the v2? I’m really torn whether I should get it or not. Seems a lot of people either really like it or really dislike it
Is the Razer Huntsman V2 TKL or the Corsair K70 TKL better for (FPS) Gaming ?
I've had the Huntsman Elite since it came out and honestly it's fantastic BUT I will say MOST of the RGB profiles you find will not include the wrist rest (I don't know why but it's annoying). The wrist rest also doesn't last worth a damn, especially if you have bracelets or a watch on. Mine wore away after just a few months and now a few years later it's extremely annoying with chipping and wear. ALSO, the HyperX pudding caps look fantastic except the bottom row. the bottom row and space bar do not fit the Razer profile. The Huntsman also has a weird input reception where in high tier FPS play it's kind of weird to try and tight strafe without the Razer wanting to prioritize one side. Overall I have to give a good review but I might switch to the K100 to see how it handles over time.
Got myself the Razer Huntsman Elite v2 Analog about a month ago. I like it pretty much so far! And last week, got the Corsair K100 for my girlfriend's birthday... and she likes it.
Like what you said Brainbean, Razer is more focused towards game implementation so I do prefer this one over the K100. My gf mainly play games with a controller and do her multimedia editing with the K100.
One thing I do love about the K100... the OPX switches are so frickin' fast! Typing with it is amazing. As for the Razer Huntsman v2 Analog, I don't enjoy typing long wall of texts with it... hence, I'd prefer a low profile KB for that.
Overall, they're both great keyboards! We would've loved if they'd come out in WHITE FORMAT though... ;)
Cheers Brainbean!
Brilliant review, i'll forever miss playing on my Xbox with analog joysticks and rumble. I've been seeking out a keyboard to replace that nostalgic feeling. Plus being able to creep around at my pace, versus always running is an odd feeling alone.
I have the Huntsman V2 Analog and I Love my new Keyboard
I have the huntsman elite, and pulled the trigger on this one, along with a basilisk, good to hear!
Same! And i'm absolutely loving it, haha.
lol at the typing sound comparison.. its almost like you appeared to type less aggressively on the razer
At this point, any optical switch keyboard with adjustable sensitivity and a volume knob is enough for these companies to keep charging $200+. If they just halved their prices, they would be worth considering due to their switch longevity alone.
here in england they keyboard goes for 140 pounds (198 dollars) brand new, im probably going to get it. thanks for the opinion though
**the razer v2 analog**
@@LlfeMinecraft how is it? im considering to buy it too
i just got the k100 opx and i love it :) ty for the comparison video! it's weird to me that razer's keyboard looks more basic but is the more expensive one? lol
Analog switches are expensive, i'd personally take it over the corsair if I was to choose between them
@@Shmozone Bad idea. Check my comment.
@@ryancarroll6432 Check your comment?
@@ryancarroll6432 What comment?
@@Shmozone I mean you should go with the razer if you are going to use the functions it comes with like the analog feature.the controller feature.and customizing your actuation force.But if you are not than it is just pointless.if you are not going to use those features than you should get the Corsair k100
Very good comparison now I'm going with the Corsair K100 RGB but I want a mouse to go with it. Do you know the best mouse to go with the cosair k100 RGB?
Probably too late now haha
But the corsair scimitar pro is by my side since 7-8 years or so and is effin amazing if you like alot of Buttons (wopping 10 side Buttons that I use as numbers for gaming and as shortcuts when working with audio) and rlly works as new.
Corsairs ICUE Software is by far the best Utility Software ive used (these are normally a horror and the HyperX one literally made my alloy elite Keyboard RGB lighting glitch lol) and its amazing to match and control several corsair products.
I bought the razer huntsman v2 analog, and it is living up to my expectations. I like its response time-a significant upgrade from my last keyboard.
Same tbh!
What was your old keyboard?
@@look_tom Mine was a Roccat Vulcan 120 Aimo
@@look_tom ornata v2
how is it holding up?
3 years in with the huntsman elite version 1 and the wrist wrest tore in two spots (size of a dime for both). everything else though is in tact and still operable - may go corsair, or SteelSeries. the SteelSeries wrist wrest is like a hard rubber which i feel will last a long while.
Same here. My wrist wrest is torn on my Huntsman Elite. It's why I'm currently looking for a new keyboard.
@@KLGChaos i ended up getting the tkl blackwidow v2 for $69. Figured for $69 and longevity weighs out price to durability ratio.
May I ask what desk that is?
I got the Razer, for analog feature
Yes give me some advice should i spend my money on it
@@anthemy8118 Nope, it’s not worth it games really aren’t being developed to utilize the analog feature. Plus the keyboard bugs out and reads W, A, S, or D held down and I have to press the buttons rapidly to get to stop and sometimes that doesn’t work. Turns out this has been a thing with certain Razer keyboards and there’s no fix to my knowledge - I’ve looked.
@@EV0ACE ok thanks for the feed back i will probobly get the k100 then thank you
@@EV0ACE it will probobly be usfull in 2 years when things like that are needed
@@anthemy8118 I actually bought a Huntsman V2 analog today, picking it up in 2 days. I'd be happy to provide my feedback in case @EV0ACE just got a bad batch :)
Hm I would honestly give the edge to the huntsman v2.
Corsairs 4k polling rate, streamdeck Integration and the bazzilion profiles seem more like a gimmik to me than the Features of razers analog switches wich have the potential to give players real benefits to the gaming experience.
But I totally agree with your point that the pricecreep makes these flagships a really hard sell compared to custom keeps
I think he is right the Corsair is better, I mean he has been here on earth for over 25+ years
My only problem with the razer is a lack of macro keys.
Guess they included a num pad for a reason.
I mean you can always just buy like a macro pad that can do that
@@jjjmrkdkf5312 true
wait a min... how tf does a lazer activated switch has adjustable actuation point??? the lazer is either on or off
Cherry Speed ftw. Been using K95 for around 4 years now. Love this switch..
But i finally bought OPX variant and they are smooooooth.. Plus ths switches and stabs are hot swappable so Krytox 205g0 is ordered😍
But out of the box, all the stabs are lubed a little and are way wayyyy better than K95 or any previous keyboard from corsair.
i believe the sswitches on the opx variant do pop out, but no other switch would work
Have U ever had discolouration in your lighting? Ive returned one (k95 cherry brown) for replacement (k95 cherry red as th y had no brown left 🤬) only to have the same thing happen 🥺
@@BxTekNurd Np issues. I've used K95 for over 3 years, only issue I had was with volume roller, that too I was able to solve with a toothbrush and 90% rubbing alcohol.
But no discolouration issue. I used speed Silver.
@@shshankking ok. Ive had one of the RGB drop out causing the colour of the key to become a different colour. But it comes and goes. 🥺
@@BxTekNurd If its under warranty, RMA it..
I will say if the foe leather on the Huntsman is anything like what is on the Black Widow it will flake off over time. I love the keyboard but I have had it so long now that you can tell where my wrists shift around on it, and I find little flakes stuck to me all the time after a long gaming session. I can get a replacement but it is $35 and is still comfortable to use just a bit... messy to use now.
You didn't say anything about razer huntsman v2 analog keys sticking when not pressed...sad..
I have huntsman v2 analog, and it is a really good keyboard, but I miss g keys after my g19s.
The k100 has pressure sensitive activation right? Like i can half press or quarter press to control movement etc?
no, that's an analog switch, so the huntsman V2 comes with it, not the k100.
I got razer huntsman te and ducky one 2 mini v2 cherry mx speed :D
you so underrated
Just got the k100 off of impulse because it was 100 bucks.
I had the k70. The k100 feels and looks nice. I really like it
I love my K100 keyboard with the nexus display for even more cool elgato features!
Hey what do you think of the nexus?
@@briangitlin1939 It works great! Now a way better deal at $100 bucks
@@eas197419741974 Do you think it would be good with the v2 analog?
For me, whom actually had typing on a typewriter in school, the K100 sounds better. I grew up with the clicking sounds on keyboards.
If a person can find these to try out at a store, they should go and try thin in person. Then they can see which one that feels and sounds better to them.
What keyboard would your say out of all gaming keyboards would you say is best, I'm a highly competitive player who's competed in gaming tournaments and in look for the best keyboard along with mouse
For raw speed and feel if you want a “gaming brand” Razer huntsman TE probably gets my vote with linear switch. My personal fave is glorious GMMK Pro which you would also put speed switches in. It’s more expensive but quality there is superb.
@@Brainbean I'll take a look I've heard great thing about the huntsman and the k100 corsair. Thank you
Im really considering switching from corsair. Sadly the macro keys constantly throw me off and i cant get used to it
Me too! I got a k95 last week, I had to send it back. Those g keys keep throwing me off
@@mz9722 lmao im using the K95 ver of 2014 which has 18 macro keys. Never any issue with them.
Corsair definitely makes top of the line keyboards. Have had them ever since I could remember and they've never let me down and the software is amazing too.
Nice one, bro! 🔥
Which is a better Gaming Keyboard b/w Razer Huntsman V2 (Purple) and Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 (Brown)?
I have ordered the Razer Huntsman V2 (Razer Purple) for 148.49 USD. The red linear version is unavailable and the available ones are very pricy in my country.
I am a Software Dev. I do some typing but I am mainly buying the Keyboard for Casual Gaming.
I did order the Corsair K70 RGB MK.2 (MX Brown) for 153.48 USD. But I cancelled it because I saw many reviews complaining about the poor quality of the keyboard and broken keys after 1 to 2 years of use.
I know that the Razer Huntsman has a lot of rattling due to its poor stabilizers but if I were to get a perfect keyboard in terms of stable and lubed switches I would have gone for the Keychron K series (Q is unavailable in India).
Currently, I own a Cosmic Byte CB-GK-16 with Outemu Blue Switch. It is very clicky and feels okay to game with.
The other choices based on availability and normal pricing are:
- HyperX Alloy Origins Red - 122.68 USD
- Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro Green/Yellow - 171.91 USD
- Logitech G PRO (GX Blue Clicky Switches) - 122.73 USD
Most of the Keyboards and variants are unavailable. So, should I still stick with Razer Huntsman V2 (Purple)?
The k100 having the best macro setup on any keyboard in the market feels gimmicky?
is there any speed/response test? if so can someone tell me timestamp? :D
what is that wallpaper
I have both in front of me and definitely prefer the Razer Huntsman Analog V2. The Corsair is nice but the damn PING that has existed since the K70 continues to drag down their keyboards. Some keys are just ridiculously pingy when you bottom out the key. I can't understand why Corsair hasn't address this with some sound dampening material inside their keyboards. The other issue is the inconsistent feel between keys that us stabilizers and ones that don't.. They feel completely different. The Ping and inconsistent feel just shouldn't be happening on a $230 keyboard.
I ended up with the Huntsman Analog V2 because of the key feel and no ping. Corsair really needs to get their act together on the Pinging. It has been going on since the K70 but they continue to bury their heads in the sand about it. Frustrating as I LOVE the RGB implementation on the K100.
Very true indeed, I tested the Steelseries Apex pro with omni switches, K100 with opx switches as well as thee analog v2; both the k100 and the apex pro had the annoying ping, and it became more prevalent especially when these linear keys are quiet, Ended up with the analog v2, yes its keys are hard and you really gotta put some muscles to use to push down the key but it feels rock solid and there is completely no ping; plus it has the actuation adjustment feature of the apex pro and some more upgrades.
I just got myself the k100 cause i wanna keep it 100
in terms of sound comparison razer win
but SS more than only sound
well at the end i'll choose SS than razer (altough full size is not my style anymore since 2019)
I have the Razer. Some of the keys would not disengage(e.g. stop pressing W, keep walking forward). I had to jump through many hoops before they'd process my RMA.
So, about 2 weeks after I mailed my defective unit, I received my replacement. Which does the exact same thing as the first one. I told them I am no longer interested in diagnosing or troubleshooting. I just want a refund. Apparently Razer only issues refund from direct sales. Since I purchased from a retailer(who has a 14 day return window), I'm basically SOL with a $250 flagship keyboard that is a POS.
Save yourself the hassle, get the Corsair. Or any other brand. This keyboard sucks.
P.S. I had the issue occur 3 times. While. Writing. This. Comment.
I am having the same issue. Apparently it's caused by synapse so if you close that it should fix it, but then you can't do anything with the lighting or even use the analog features. I'll be returning this for the corsair.
I've been using Huntsman V2 Analog for 4 months and I've never had a problem like you mentioned. As far as I understand, they brought an update to the Synapse program and fixed this problem for good. I can say that this is the best keyboard I have used in my life. I have used more than 25 keyboards from Steelseries, Corsair, Asus and Razer brands before, but Huntsman V2 Analog provided me with the best experience. If you wait for certain discounts, you can easily get this product, especially with Amazon.
Or you may get the Razer Huntsman v2 (without Analog), it also has better Sound Dampening Foam
I like both so much and couldn't decide between the 2.. in the end I got both. The Analog was really too ex so I got the Huntsman Elite instead. I have always been a loyal Corsair fan (my PSU, AIO cooler, LED fans, mouse & mouse pad are all Corsairs) and the K100 was a no-brainer for the best RGB effects (replacing my 5 year old K70 Rapidfire) but I didn't really enjoy it's linear keys. The Huntsman Elite was in a league of its own with the excellent clicky purple keys and all-round RGBs on both the keyboard as well as the wrist-rest. Have always been a big fan collector of PC keyboards/mouse all these years (besides being a hardcore PC gamer) and currently also have a Corsair M65 (retiring), Asus ROG Spartha, Razer Basilisk V3 & a Logitech G502 Lightspeed.
Am I the only one running into phantom key presses with the huntsman v2 analogue?
No, many people do. It's a software issue so don't bother getting a new one.
For me the optical design just makes the difference for the k100, was expensive but worth it
Razer switches are also optical
@@Ilestun But they don't feel or look like a regular mechanical switch. Corsair essentially made an optical Cherry MX switch.
Corsair had a keyboard that was almost waterproof I loved that one for keyboard safety from spilled drinks
The keys on the Razer definitely have a better sound to them, but overall I definitely like the Corsair better. Admittedly though I am a bit of a Corsair fanboy. I have a K68, and K70 and a K70 TKL.
After a year of using the Corsair K100, I don't recommend it. It gets dirty really fast and hard to clean, the wrist rest wears down over time and the feet on my wrist rest have fallen off, the legs on my keyboard have also had an issue with just falling randomly, software is somewhat confusing and hard to use compared to Razer's.
I got a k95p and corsair ironclaw originally. I had the k95 for nearly 2 years, and the ironclaw for about 1 year.
My mouse broke recently and my new mouse is arriving tomorrow, a razer basilisk ultimate. If i really like this mouse and the scrollwheel doesnt break after 3 months (lol), then i will invest into razer. Ique has been a nightmare and not only does the keyboard behave weirdly (rgb randomly goes on during the night, i have to switch it off before i switch off pc which means i gota turn it on when i turn on my pc and its really frustrating), but also i dont like the spacebar cus its ridiculously badly built.. plus the build while overal solid, the volume wheel feels cheap and also i have concerns about the shiny plastic that houses the corsair logo..... Overall i wont be going back to corsair
I miggt get a custom at this stage, idk much about them but i might look into it
Is "elite" actually part of this keyboards name?
It's funny how what tipped the scale for me was already owning a Tartarus Pro.
Knowing I don't need yet another software, got guaranteed RGB compatibility for when I want to do things like having the KB blink in a certain color on certain very important key presses on my Tartarus, and fewer gimmicks like that weird media wheel no game really supports anyway, that's what seemed to make the most difference.
guys is the k100 fast keyboard ?
I'm looking at Logitech G915 as I need a wireless option for my tab, and contrast on the Logitech looks much better for me. But I prefer a Corsair K95 for the design... I wish it was wireless!
I personally prefer wired keyboards and wireless mice. I got the G915 around a year ago and have recently decided to upgrade again to go along with my computer upgrade I’m getting in the near future and am looking for a wired keyboard.
Consumers:can you guys ad a bit more features
Razer:Ya like jazzz.
newer understand open key style like corsair k100
I tested both at best buy. Razer keys are way more satisfying (a lil bit heavy tho). Corsair keys are wayy too short and light, feels super weird. By looks corsair wins hands down.
Im really in doubt.. so what do u think? I tested the blackwidow v3 and I like do much, its better my v2.
@@look_tom Yes, blackwidow v3 keys feels a lot better than blackwidow v2 (I used to have blackwidow v2).
The huntsman v2 is not clicky, but it feels super smooth, the keys are a bit heavy and deep and has a very satisfying sound and feel. Go to bestbuy and try them out see if u like them.
Isn't razer too noisy ?
@@ondamixtape if u get their clicky switches then yea
@@t.n.9508 I mean the huntsman V2 analog
Why cant i get rid of the red when i play diablo? K100
Why would you want to?
Is there such a thing as huntsman elite v2? Unless this is a prototype
The huntsman v2 analog is the equivalent to the elite
The leather wrist rest on the razer is on the cheap side and doesn’t last, 10 months and the left palm placement went through the crazy thin leather huge disappointment when I’m a casual gamer at best.
I never see mentioned in reviews of these keyboard their dimensions with and without the wrist rests. Woulkd be nice to get the sizes as well so people can see just how big they actually are.
idk why every time i use razer product it turns rusty I just changed to k95 it feels like butter
I choose corsair K100 opx finally
If Corsair had the rgb hand rest😮
en el minuto 3:18 que teclas rosadas son? me encantaron y quisiera adquirirlas. agradezco la info

I don't get it.
First you are telling that the Razer Huntsman analog V2 is the better keyboard.
Than you switched to the Corsair K100
Yeah the guy can’t make his mind up
Corsair all day. I have it for 1 year and still like new condition.
i got the k100 a few days ago, paid 336 euros for it… 230$ would be a bargain bro
I don’t like the huntsman v2 raised design or the key caps
A year ago it was the huntsman elite vs the k95 platinum, I actually think corsairs keyboard is better than the huntsman elite v2.
I'm glad i went for the Huntsman v2. The Razer keys are way more satisfying (a lil bit on the heavy tho but i'm getting used to it). Corsair keys are way too short and light (imo) and they feel super weird. But by looks corsair wins hands down.
If you spill anything on the Space bar. On the K100 or K95. There is Nothing to Stop the Liquid from Destroying your Keyboard!!! What is up with that!?!
which ever one is quieter,
I have both the Huntsman V2 Analog and the K95 plat xt , Both are phenomenal keyboards but the one thing that really sets them apart is the software , the PC i have the corsair on is non stop issues with Icue not opening on its own and randomly not responding or shutting down, i have to set it up in the registry to force open it on bootup , have fully cleaned everything and did fresh install of windows and within a month it started happening again, Does the same thing if i swap it to the other pc, The Synapse on the other hand has been pretty great aside from freezing up once or twice in certain games but it doesn't really effect anything except lighting / keybinds which i don't really use.
I love both of these keyboards maybe leaning more towards the corsair in terms of build quality but I cannot stand Icue its pretty terrible and as because of that I probably will never buy another corsair product until i know its fixed. Really wish razor kept making the extra fullsize keyboards with M-keys though.
Keyboard prices as getting as bad as graphic card prices. Either one of these is almost ½ the price of my i7-12700K.
just bought a k100 and its now 8000hz
120 swiss chf for the k100 Brand New, why not :)
You didn't mention that Corsair K100 has integration with iCUE which has a wider variety of stuff that can be synced and integrated as Corsair sells RGB components too and iCUE can also do stuff like monitoring temps and stuff
Yes. I currently am using ICUE and it is amazing, have watercooler, 2 pair of led strips and fans all hooked up to Commander and the software is much more powerful than Razer Synapse which also requires another piece of software to control RGB fully, when on ICUE is all on the same software. Corsair is more advanced software-wise than Razer. But I have to forget about using a Corsair mouse when my 4th mouse developed double click left button. That is why I've changed to Razer Deathadder V2 and the optical switch changed my life. Now I cannot go back to anything "mechanical" switch related.
Wristrest on Razer sucks, the leather will melt under your hand after about half a year of use, you can rip off the leather to give it a nice and smooth textile surface to rest your hand.
i have spent many days reading about both of them... finally could see those life in one place at the same time... Corsair does look nicer, much nicer... also great to have macro keys and this additional wheel is a great add on.. and multimedia keys are better....
but when you try those out... volume wheel on Corsair rotates freely, so on Razer it is easier to get needed volume without going too far up or down... and what is the worst part is that Corsair analog switches are awful if to compare to Razer... if they had a bit more resistance then keyboard would be just perfect
damn, i wanted Corsair sooo much.. but after trying both - i just can't stand its' optical switches... so have to go for Razer...
one additional plus for Razer in my case was that they have ENG/RU caps but corsair only one language and here they sell only Nordic ones :(
i love the opx switches
I contemplating getting the used K100 on Amazon for $149
I just ordered one and they’re currently $100 😂
@@NookieMan69 I am glad I did not buy it for that price. I might pick up the K100
ahhh my purple switches :"(
oh no the shrek man look is disappearing
Razer is much more simple and minimalistic
Corsair of course
lube and film the k100. it sounds much better.
it’s not hotswap so u can’t
