Groundbreaking performance at the speed of light—this is the all-new Razer Huntsman Elite: http://rzr.to/HuntsmanElite



We’re constantly pushing the boundaries of innovation to bring you the best gaming experience imaginable. This time, we’re introducing the Razer Huntsman Elite—featuring the brand-new Razer Opto-Mechanical Switch built for unmatched speed and precision.



Using optical actuation technology, the Razer Opto-Mechanical Switch actuates and resets at the same point, enabling rapid fire keypresses at ludicrous speeds. This is the all-new weapon designed for quick and light keypresses while retaining the familiar clicky feel you know and love.



What’s more, we’ve added fully customizable dedicated media controls to suit your every need. The plush leatherette wrist rest provides added comfort while gaming and the Razer Chroma enabled underglow makes this beast a perfect companion to your battlestation.

New look, new switch. This is the Razer Huntsman Elite: http://rzr.to/HuntsmanElite

I have it for 2 weeks and i love it. Looks great, in games like overwatch, wow, hots works nice. I dont regret bying it but price it bit large 😛
My only wish is that the wrist rest was sloped, like on the Ornata...that and that it didn't need 2 USBs.

Other and that I think this keyboard is incredible. It feels solid and beefy. The Opto-echanical switches are faster and you definitely notice it.

The sound of a tournament edition is really enticing...
It would be sick if the huntsman had a tournament edition.

I would have considered a TE edition Huntsman Elite over the Blackwidow Elite I got yesterday. I like the open frame and solid design of them both. I'm noticing more and more than I really don't use the 10 key enough to warrant it.

Now a Black Widow Elite TE? I don't know...it'd be hard to choose.
I am still not getting why there is no tournament version of this keyboard yet...
I love this keyboard but I would love to have textured WASD keys? Does anyone know if they are available and do the following keys fit the Huntsman Elite? https://www.razer.com/gaming-accessories/metallic-keycap-set
Improve the Huntsman Elite for a few bucks. The lighting on the wrist rest is great except on a dark wood desk. The user cannot see the front lighting. I put a strip of Metal Repair Tape (hardware store by vent pipes) under the front of the keyboard and the wrist rest lighting is now perfect.
This keyboard is dope
i want this 😻
I just got my Huntsman Elite and I love it!!!! Goes great with my Naga and my Vespula for work.
Sick want this so bad, but im poor l0l.
Are the media buttons' symbols (back, forward, pause/play and volume) really not backlit (RGB light shining through the symbols) on this keyboard? If so, why would Razer leave those keys un-chroma'd?
They only light up around the key. The symbols do not light up.
Could anyone please confirm wether the mechanical enhancement kit (to make it quieter) and the metallic keycaps that razer sells can be used with the Huntsman Elite? Thank you very much!

Ever here back? I'm scared to pry my keys off of it, without knowing - from a glance and having used it, without being experienced in this models inner workings as of yet.

I usually wait till I break something or wear something out, before I start messing with it.
Whats the difference between the huntsman and huntsman elite?
One has an excellent chroma'd wrist pad that attaches magnetically, and media keys up top(right hand top corner) and the other does not.
hey, is anyone else having trouble with their huntsman elite have some key problems, sometimes my buttons stick and sometimes they dont respond. i dont mean psyically stick but for example ill hit the "c" key and i'll get "ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc" unless i physically interfere, its odd because i just bought it in october
This is the BEST gaming keyboard ever made.
Thank You RAZER!

Try to remove all razer softwere, remove files from appdata and programfiles then remove keybord from device menager disconnect all razer device and reboot connect just keybord and install synapse if this dont help you can also try to remove your profiles from synapse to make sure you dont have something enable in settings.
I just bought it, I love the keyboard, but I hate Synapse 3.0. It's frustrating to use, now it feels bloated because of Synapse 3.0. I'll probably end up returning it tomorrow and picking up a Corsair instead. 😞
