key typing functions

RAZER Switches

RAZER's proprietary switches. There are four types of switches: the basic "RAZER Mechanical", the low-profile "RAZER Mechanical-Membrane" that combines both mechanical and membrane switches, the "RAZER Opto-Mechanical" that switches with a laser light instead of a physical switch, and the thin (low-profile) version of RAZER Opto-Mechanical, the RAZER Thin Optical Switches", a thin (low-profile) version of RAZER Opto-Mechanical.

Since the switches used for each series differ according to the characteristics of the series, selecting a series from the switches will also determine the series you choose.

lighting macro

RAZER CHROMA

Many people think of CHROMA lighting when they think of RAZER. Not only can you customize the lighting when typing on the keys, but when used with supported games, the keys will light up in accordance with the game scene, allowing you to enjoy more realistic game play. This allows you to enjoy more realistic gameplay.

RAZER CHROMA has "Chroma Studio" for creating lighting, "Chroma Connect" for combining various devices, and "Chroma Visualizer" for reacting to sounds, etc., which can be used in combination with Razer Synapse 3 to create detailed settings. Chroma Visualizer" is also available.

Razer Synapse 3

Razer Synapse 3 is a dedicated software that makes Razer keyboards even more functional.

Razer Synapse 3 allows you to create more complex macros and customize key mappings.

Hybrid Storage (Onboard Memory & Cloud)

Profiles configured with Razer Synapse 3 are not only stored in the keyboard's onboard memory, but are also simultaneously stored in RAZER's cloud via Razer Synapse 3.

This allows you to configure more profiles than are available in the keyboard's memory, and to instantly recall them via the cloud.

1000 Hz Ultrapolling

RAZER keyboards are designed to transmit 1000 Hz frequencies at intervals of 1 millisecond from USB, resulting in a keyboard response time of 1 millisecond.

This provides an advantage in situations where continuous typing is frequently used, such as gaming.

On-the-Fly Macro (OTF)

With models equipped with on-the-fly macros, you can set macros on the keyboard itself without using Razer Synapse 3.

Since you can record by actually tapping on the keyboard, you can create macros in a more intuitive manner.

Other Features

RAZER HYPERSPEED WIRELESS

RAZER's unique 2.4GHz wireless connection function reduces the response time, the weak point of wireless keyboards, to 1ms. This is 10 times faster than the response time of some other company's models, which have a maximum response time of 10ms.

While this is not a significant advantage in normal use, the wireless 1ms response time is a breakthrough in the gaming scene.
