The weight of the 2 boards is almost the same but there is definitely a difference in build. I would like to hear from anyone that has opened up a V1 and a V2 to see what the difference in build is. If any of you have both a V1 and a V2 please try this out and type side by side and you will immediately notice that typing on the V1 doesn't produce any hollow noise but the V2 does. If you type on a V1 and V2 side by side you will notice that the V2 almost sounds like its a bit hollow - almost like an empty box with switches mounted onto it. Īnothe thing I need to mention is I prefer costar stabilizers over the Cherry stabilizersįinally - the thing I haven't seen anyone else comment on is the following.
Razer blackwidow chroma plus#
The plus of the greetech switches over the Khail's is that they sound and feel more consistent. Overall - the khail's have less key wobble and feel more stable - the V2 has developed really BAD key wobble - I suppose one can get used to it but if you've typed on a well build MX Blue keyboard you will immediately notice the difference - ZERO key wobble on the cherry blues compared to VERY wobbly Greetech ( Razer Greens )
Thirdly the key switches were changed from Khail to Greetech - here's the good and the bad.Īnyone who has seen my earlier posts about the V2 will see that I praised it and elevated it above the V1 but after 4 months I'm going to backtrack and explain why I find the V1 better to type on and actually prefer the khail key switches over the greetech's. To someone using a V2 without having used a V1 this may not see apparent but it's there. Secondly - the key caps are a bit different in shape - its hard to explain exactly how buy they are - I've done extensive A/B comparisons and the keycaps on the V1 feel more comfortable over long periods of time. Īlso - the font was made slightly smaller and looks better to many people - but to me I think it was a step backwards - here's whyīy making the font on the V2 smaller less light is allowed to shine through so the RGB LED's are not as bright as on the V1. was improved and was given a clear plastic section with clear indicators - Nice.
To start off - the display on the top right for caps lock, num lock.
The Razer Blackwidow V2 was improved in quite a few ways but i've noticed something that I haven't seen in any review so far. So to recap - the main issue with the Original Blackwidow Chroma was the key switches.
Inconsistent feel and click ( sound ) across the keyboard - many switches failed after a few months and stopped clicking and started to feel like MX BrownsĪnother big problem with the Khail Greens is that they have quite a bit more key wobble that the Cherry MX BluesĪlso - the display on the top right for caps lock, scroll lock and num lock was almost hidden under the plastic face-plate and was hardly visible Many people compared them to the cherry MX Blues and the Khails came up short in many ways. Ok so firstly - the original V1 Blackwidow had many issues with the khail - Razer green switches. I also have a Corsair K70 Rapidfire RGB and a K70 Vengence since 2015. To all the people that want to know all the differences between V1 and V2 - this is for youįirstly - I just want to say up front that I have had my V1 for about 2 years and the V2 since Dec 2017 and I've used it almost constantly for about 4 months.
