Razer Huntsman V3 Pro TKL review

pcgamer.com:

Razer is commonly associated with some of the best gaming keyboards on the market, but it’s also a brand synonymous with the higher end of the pricing spectrum. That’s where we find the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro TKL, which seeks to pack in all the must-have premium features for the esports aficionados. For the most part, it justifies its high-end price tag and delivers some of the smoothest quick-fire tweaks with a stunning design that makes it easy to recommend. 

Though some of what it can do may be lost on more casually minded gamers.  

We’ve seen even mid-range gaming keyboards, such as the NXZT Function 2 and Wooting 60HE, offer dual actuation at the press of a button. However, the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro TKL takes things a step further with its quick actuation point adjustment system. With the combined pressing of Fn and Tab, you can spin the media dial at the top to vary between a shallow 0.1 mm sensitivity to a far deeper 3.6 mm press. There are 10 steps in between which can be tweaked quickly, leading to a vastly different feeling keyboard experience in seconds. 

Smartly, Razer has included a light-up gauge above the arrow keys which demonstrates the key press before you settle into your final decision on the actuation point. That means you can experiment with what depth of feel works for you before confirming by hitting those two keys again followed by Esc. While it was initially a little fiddly at first, it quickly became second nature after a couple of goes. The bulk of my testing was spent all across the actuation spectrum from the shallowest to the highest—particularly when gaming or working.
