Chroma App Tab Resizing

Hi all! The Razer Chroma app (alt-tabbing shows that the window is called "Razer Chroma/chroma-app") has some weird UI behavior (resizing?) when I'm rapidly switching between the tabs. Specifically, the weird part seems to be the tab bar resizing itself. I think it happens when I click on the icon instead of the text? Do let me know if there's anything I can do to help reproduce or debug! Running a 1440p 27" monitor on Windows 11.

Synapse Modules Popup is Covered

Hi, The "Modules" popup seems to be covered by the "Language" card in the Synapse app's "Settings" tab. Steps to reproduce: Open Synapse Make Synapse as horizontally small as possible Open the "Settings" tab by clicking the "Settings" icon in the upper right Observe that the "Modules" popup is underneath the "Language" card. I don't see the same covering behavior in the other tabs.

Synapse Closing Tabs Behavior

Hi! User experience preference. Chrome is the only place where I see tabs similar to Synapse's new design. For better or worse, I now expect tabs to all function like Chrome's tabs. That includes missing interaction patterns such as: Middle-mouse clicking a tab to close it. Drag-and-drop to reorder tabs. Having the clickable "X" present on each tab even if it isn't the active tab. Ctrl+Tab to go to the tab on the right and Ctrl+Shift+Tab to go left. I don't have enough Razer products (wow, that's something I never thought I'd say) to fill up the tab bar to overflow, but I really enjoy side scrolling on tabs. I can also see how a tabbed interface may become tedious for folks with many many products. Especially if tabs can't be pinned or reordered.

Login with Google

Hi! Just some general feedback. When I had to log in, I selected the Google icon. However, it opened up a tab (like a WebView or iframe) embedded within Synapse. It would be great if this would open up my default browser instead. I'm a bit hesitant to type in any password in a window that isn't my browser. Additionally, for something like my Razer ID login, having my browser (or password manager) autofill saves some pain. Happy to provide screenshots if what I'm saying doesn't make sense.

Behind the Scenes with the Razer Huntsman TE

The Razer Huntsman TE has revolutionized the playing field for mechanical keyboards. By providing a fundamentally new optical switch, the Huntsman family of keyboards eliminates debounce delay. Although mechanical keyboards can utilize software to try and compensate for debounce delay, optical switches actuate via light. Light actuation makes the switch faster, more durable (up to 100 million keystrokes), and reduces debounce delay to the speed of light. Literally. Under codename “Project Jamie”, the Huntsman took Razer’s top engineers years to develop. The keyboard can now be seen in competitive play, being used by some of Team Razer’s best pro players. TACO (CS:GO) and Arteezy (Dota 2) both rely on the Huntsman TE to gain the competitive edge. Team Razer’s pro players not only use this keyboard in competitive play, they helped develop the Huntsman, through dozens of iterations in a fast feedback loop directly with Razer engineers. Starting with the switch, engineers at Razer

Behind the Scenes with the Razer Viper

Hello, Insiders! I recently got a chance to sit down and chat with the engineering team responsible for the Razer Viper. Take a look at the Q&A below! What inspired the Viper? The Razer Viper was specifically designed for competitive gameplay with the purpose of optimizing performance. How was the name chosen? It fits what the mouse represents in terms of features and design. It was also an optical mouse we produced in 2004, back when many mice were still using ball-type mechanical sensors. What challenges did the engineers face in creating the mouse? Some of the challenges we faced included finding the right shape and reducing the weight without sacrificing performance. The result is a mouse design without holes in its external shell that could compromise its structural integrity. What were some of the critical design decisions? The DPI button was positioned at the bottom to prevent unintended DPI shifts mid-game. Accessibility of the side buttons are critical for the same reaso

Lafar's Razer Holiday Gift Guide

Hiya Insiders! Lafar here, joined Insider about five-ish years ago. Looking forward to another five years with y'all :). Tis the holiday season, and I'd love to share a few products I use! Razer Huntsman Elite Amazing Chroma aside, I've moved on from my BlackWidow TE Chroma V2 to the Huntsman about a year ago. The satisfying click combined with fast actuation in the optical switches make typing super fun and super quick. I'm a software developer at heart, and having a keyboard that gives me good feedback while being ergonomic to type on is a must (please don't use this in the office... or any clicky switch... please.). If you want a top notch keyboard that is great for gaming and typing, this is the keyboard you've been waiting for. Just bought a set of white PBT doubleshot keycaps to compliment this beauty! Razer Basilisk Ultimate Picked this mouse up recently (an upgrade from my Razer DeathAdder Chroma). Playing through Halo: Reach (Halo Master Chief Collection! Anybody else pick
