This keyboard is a bit pricey, especially for a wired keyboard with no keys, but that’s just the way it is with a flagship. It’s even a bit cheaper than SteelSeries’ flagship, the Apex Pro TKL, which costs $179. However, the SteelSeries keyboard has user-adjustable switches and a small OLED display, two things the Razer keyboard definitely does not have. One of the first things you’ll notice about the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition is that it’s small. Really small. There’s maybe half an inch of case on each side of the keyboard after the keys end, which combined with the modest black aluminum case means it both blends in with its surroundings and looks extremely stylish. The Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition is a tenkeyless keyboard, which means it doesn’t have a number pad, which might get spreadsheet addicts excited, but it’s really a design decision that makes sense for the target audience.

For a device that is primarily aimed at Esports players, performance is of course the only thing that matters. Performance and reliability. That said, playing Overwatch with the Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition feels pretty good. Our character is extremely responsive, and it didn’t feel like there was any lag in our commands. However, this should be taken with a grain of salt, as we generally suck at Overwatch. The Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition uses a new iteration of the optomechanical switches also found in the Razer Huntsman Elite, which shouldn’t surprise anyone. When you press one of these buttons, they interrupt a laser underneath the switch that triggers the button press instantly with almost no latency.
