Equipped with Razer Mechanical Orange Switches—our quietest switch yet—the Razer BlackWidow Lite provides tactile feedback with optimized actuation and reset points for responsiveness, along with durable side walls to keep dust and liquids out. Each key features global white LED backlighting, so you won’t ever miss a key even when you’re in a dark room.

With a lifespan of up to 80 million keystrokes, this compact keyboard is an incredible feat in the workplace, and ready for a quick game in between breaks. And when you’re ready to work on the go, just detach the keyboard’s cable for easy packing.

A very pointless keyboard.

1) It's switches are traditional metal contact switches, hence the keyboard is very unreliable to type on. They will develop chatter over time. They should have used opto-mechanical Razer Purple switches instead. They are immune to chatter.

2) It is one color only. Nobody buys 1 color keyboard. Even if they do, they will very soon lust for RGB (or Chrome as you call it)

The only good thing about it is perhaps it is TKL... saves space.
Please enable Synapse to individually turn off the keys on BW Lite

Not sure if i've said this before, this is one of the best black edition computer hardware out there! Period!

Massdrop CTRL is better.

Same form factor, 2 USB C ports, RGB, HOT SWAP SOCKETS, so you can change to any MX style mechanical switch you want.

... for 200$ USD and not widely available

The Blackwidow Lite is only 90$ and is meant to be, well, a lite version ...

The Blackwidow Tournament Edition Chroma V2 is also just 120$, comes with a wrist rest ...


So, is the abilility to "HOT SWAP SOCKETS, so you can change to any MX style mechanical switch you want" that is only aimed at a small % of the end user actually worth the 110$ & 80$ USD difference and makes it better for the majority?

It's not like Razer switches were not as good as Cherry MX switches.

Razer also does RGB better than anyone else.

This model is on another level of STEALTH! Phewww
If you market it as half-work and half-play. Please add Synapse support to have the light enabled only on some keys such as WASD only. As I game at night and work at day.

This is a wrong concept.. Razer hate to tell you but you are doing this wrong. While working and gaming, People have to know that you are doing it. Silent working gives the wrong impression. The keyboard has got to click so that people know that you are clicking!! XD

Can't tell if you're kidding or serious.
Looks Great!!!
but the blackwidow v2 te also has a detatchable cable...

Looks sick but not really my style. I like how Razer is broadening their horizons beyond just gaming
This is a nice option to replace my actual keyboard.

Release one with Razer Green or an equivalent to Cherry MX Green switches.

a reply to get points??
Honestly my try it out after my current keyboard wears out in a few years
Very nice. Simple with backlit keys. I can't wait to get one. Keep the great ideas comin'.
This would be nice to place in my work bag.
The author in me is very, very, very happy with this one. Just... I'm hoping it won't be one of those "exclusively Razer Store, exclusively US centered" things that won't at all be available in the rest of the World or with any other layout than US.

Listen up, Razer! We need this! Please...? 🙂
The light touch makes them a good choice for both gaming and typing. The keys are also very quiet, particularly the MX Red Silent variant, which makes them good for office environments or crowded houses mybkexperience.me.
Dreaming of a Nordic language layout and official release in Sweden as well.
Looks really clean and sleek 😛
