That claim isn’t false, per se, but the trade-off is a switch that’s worse for typing-more bottoming out, more stress on your fingers. Razer claims its design is better for games than MX Blues, most notably because it makes it easier to rapidly double-press a key. Everything I wrote still applies! I’ve gotten used to Razer’s Greens over time, but I’ll still happily take a true Cherry MX Blue-equipped keyboard any day of the week.Īgain, we return to what I said earlier about people buying a keyboard for more than one purpose. This means you get a lot of resistance up front and nearly none after a key press registers. They require the same force to press as Cherry MX Blues (50 cN) and feature the same kind of clicky feel, but with a slightly higher actuation point and a lower reset point. In my opinion, they’re bargain-basement Cherry MX Blues. Here’s what I wrote in March for the BlackWidow Ultimate: Once again we reviewed the BlackWidow X with Razer’s Green switches.
