The iconic gaming keyboard that needs no introduction—this is the Razer BlackWidow Elite: http://rzr.to/BlackWidowElite



It starts with the switch—Green, Orange, Yellow.

We’ve improved the Razer Mechanical Switches with the addition of dual side walls for greater stability and bonus armor against dust and liquids. Throw in the 80 million keystroke life span and you’ve got yourself a winning formula.



Rejoice! Dedicated media controls are here.

Even before the launch of the Razer Huntsman, YOU, the community has continued to lust for dedicated media keys on the BlackWidow line. The all-new BlackWidow sports a brand-new look along with the addition of a multi-function digital dial and dedicated media keys. Oh did we mention that we’re keeping the fan-favorite plush leatherette wrist rest too?

Unlock true gaming potential with Hypershift.

Unlock an arsenal of killer combos using Razer Hypershift—you can rebind each key to the skill of your choice or record multiple keystrokes into macros for any situation.

Our flagship mechanical gaming keyboard is back, and even better: http://rzr.to/BlackWidowElite

Can´t decide between the Huntsman Elite and the Blackwidow Elite. Seems like both are amazing keyboards.

Audio and USB 2.0 pass through. Should be USB 3.0. No issues though.

Nice looking! I wish it did have the caps, number and scroll lock (etc..) indicator design like the Blackwidow V2 and the Ornata does, but otherwise that is all I have to complain about. Might end up being my first mechanical one of those days.

So, is this better than the Blackwidow V2. The naming is starting to get very confusing. Wasn't 'Elite' used for the lower tier products?

Also, no underglow? :frown_:

Is this the tournament version or the true ? It looks like more to a Blackwidow X than the original Blackwidow

The blackwidow elite has open board design so its easier to clean. Always wanted that but I also wanted a USB pass through.

Incredible promo video. It looks great and it's nice the USB is on the left now so it's usable. The reinforced keys look good too and the media keys. Plus cable management and the Instant Trigger technology. Nice upgrade from the V2!:big_grin_: (unless you want the macro keys).
The only 2 minor things I'd like different is the nonbacklit secondarys and the passthrough could be a 3.0 USB.

I like what you guys are doing with the keyboards this year. I would like to see a Razer Orbweaver Elite next please. It would go so well with a new Razer Blade! 🙂

Mhm do you think the wrist cushion is detacheable?


Tried it again this morning and had to make some edits.

Yes it's detachable. The cushion itself feels better (denser, more cushy foam) than the one on my Ornata. I like the slope of the wrist rest WAY better than the Ornata one too too, and the Ornata is really comfy--the Blackwidow Elite is just an overall improvement there. My only complaint would be that the magnet between the wrist rest and keyboard isn't quite strong enough that when I lean on the wrist rest with my elbows or lean forward on it, it pushes up and closer to the keyboard. Over time, the cushioned edge of the rest creeps up and close to the keys and the space bar. I keep pushing it back down into place. This is probably because the slope is different and I could always solve this be leaning my elbows on the desk and not the wrist rest, but it's SO comfortable I'd rather put my elbow there than a hard desk top. :big_grin_:
