Mastering Customization: Unlock the Ultimate Gaming Experience with Razer BlackWidow V4 Pro
Razer BlackWidow V4 Pro 75%: A Gaming Keyboard with a Twist
As the gaming world prepares for RazerCon 2024, I had the opportunity to get my hands on the latest addition to Razer’s lineup: the BlackWidow V4 Pro 75%. This keyboard is a real game-changer, offering a unique blend of form and function that sets it apart from the competition.
Design and Customization
The BlackWidow V4 Pro 75% is a sleek, heavy-set keyboard made of aluminum alloy. It sports Razer’s trademark black color and extensive RGB lighting. The 75% size is a new addition to the lineup and was, according to the manufacturer, in high demand from its user base. But what really sets this keyboard apart is its high level of customizability.
The keyboard is surprisingly easy to disassemble, requiring only eight screws on the underside. This, combined with the several layers that make up the keyboard, allows for a depth of customization that’s hard to find in other gaming keyboards. I was able to see this firsthand, with several tech YouTubers displaying their creations during my time with the keyboard. When I asked about the customization, it was confirmed to me that due to how easily and quickly the keyboard can be taken apart and thanks to all the layers that make it up, it’s much simpler to do so but has a real depth to it that allows for some truly unique works. Some of the keyboards, as pictured in the gallery above, are completely unrecognizable from the original model.
Performance
I only had a limited amount of time to play around with the BlackWidow V4 Pro 75%, but my short stint with it has certainly piqued my interest. Like the Alienware line of gaming keyboards, the V4 Pro 75% uses Razer’s in-house switches. From what I felt, the accusation point balances that trademark resistance mechanical switches are known for, while also not requiring too much force to push down keys.
One of the other most noticeable qualities of the switches during my test run was how clear and sharp the sound was. This is due to several factors, including the PCB with tape that helps absorb higher frequencies while boosting mid and low frequencies, the plate foam that helps remove unwanted resonance, and the bottom case foam that helps reduce hollowness. Clearly much thought and care had been put into this design, and it shows in every aspect.
Battery Life
According to Razer, the BlackWidow V4 Pro 75%’s battery life can last up to 2100 hours in power-saving mode, which is a staggeringly high number considering it accounts for the RGB lighting and OLED mini-screen. This means you can game for hours on end without needing to worry about the keyboard running out of juice.
Early Verdict
The BlackWidow V4 Pro 75% looks to be one of the best gaming keyboards that Razer has ever produced. Not only is the construction of the keyboard itself made of a high-quality metal chassis, but it comes with an OLED screen that bypasses the software for simple specs configuration. Further, the customization options balance depth with accessibility in a way few gaming keyboards achieve.
What has me truly excited is seeing just how far you can push said customization. Seeing what capable tech pros could accomplish in a short period blew my expectations out of the water. It makes me giddy to get my hands on one myself and really see what I can do with it.
Simply, it’s the most I’ve been excited for a Razer keyboard in years.
