Low-Profile Optical Keyboards

Razer's DeathStalker V2 Pro Keyboard Boasts an Instant Actuation

— July 26, 2022 — Tech
'Razer,' the world's leading lifestyle brand for gamers, debuted its newest gaming-focused RGB keyboard, the 'Deathstalker V2 Pro.' The DeathStalker V2 Pro is the newest iteration in Razer's 'DeathStalker' line of low-profile, slim keyboards. As such, the V2 Pro is the company's most ergonomic low-profile keyboard to date.

The DeathStalker V2 Pro is a full-size keyboard, meaning it contains all necessary keys, such as the num pad, function keys, and more. On top of this, this keyboard features a built-in volume wheel and a mute button on the top right-hand side for easy media control, which is very convenient for managing audio levels while playing games or watching videos.

One of the most attractive features of the DeathStalker V2 Pro is its actuation time. The keyboard comes with either 'Razer Red Linear Optical Switches' or 'Razer Purple Clicky Optical Switches,' which both boast a near-instant actuation time that requires only 45 grams of force, resulting in the pressed key being registered as soon as the user desires. In fact, the keys are often registered as pressed before the button is fully pressed down, meaning no input will be lost in a game or while typing.

In terms of its ergonomics, the ultra-low profile of the keyboard combined with the raised keys that are large enough to have a slight space between each key results in a comfortable typing experience, even without a wrist rest. This is due to both how low the keyboard sits to the desk, and with how little force the keys are pressed. Additionally, the keyboard does not slip or slide around a table due to its sturdy 5052 aluminum alloy top plate.

By virtue of the DeathStalker V2 Pro being a Razer-branded keyboard, it features full integration with the company's 'Synapse' software. Through Synapse, users can customize the RGB backlights with 16.7 million different colors and countless patterns to choose from, as well as change the function of each key, or set macros to automatically execute certain tasks. Essentially, the DeathStalker V2 Pro is an all-in-one, premium keyboard that is designed to tackle any task that requires typing.

Customers can purchase the DeathStalker V2 Pro directly from Razer's online store at an MSRP of $249.99 USD, or at various third-party retailers at prices that may vary by retailer and location.
