After 1 year of usage, I decided to switch to Ornata V2. However, the RGB is too bright which affects gaming sometimes, and the typing experience of the memorable mechanical key is not that satisfying, it needs to use much more pressure to register a signal.
After then, I bought the Blackwidow V3 8 months later, as the Blackwidow series has the best reputation in the gaming industry. I was really impressed by the solid build quality. But the hype ends when I saw the rest wist in the box.
The rest wist is a hard surface, which is not what I expect from the soft cushion design compare with all other Razer's keyboards: Blackwidow Elite, Blackwidow V3 Pro, Black widow Tornamate edition, Huntsman Elite, or even Ornata V2 at a more affordable price. The hard surface definitely not a desire comfortable option compare with the cushion layout. I was really like the Ornata V2's soft cushion rest wist and would be confident to say that is the BEST keyboard rest wist in the world.
Moreover, the Blackwidow V3's rest wist does not have a magnetic design. It cannot "stick" to the lower part like all other's keyboards. I thought it is essential for having a magnetic connection to stabilize between the keyboard and rest wist. Lacking both of these features is definitely damages the overall value of the product, not to mention that this keyboard isn't cheap at all.
I was totally shocked by this factor, I remember last time I went to Razer Store HK to ask for a trial for the Ornata V2 and the rest wist difference between other keyboards (they do not have the keyboard demo at that time), the staff was a bit impatient to express that they are not a big difference for the rest wist. That leads me to expect the same quality for the more pricey Blackwidow V3.
For now, in order to solve my disappointment, I use Ornata V2's rest wist instead
I hope if any engineer or designer related to this keyboard design project could explain the idea behind cutting-edge rest wist features.
