Our Verdict

Razer BlackWidow Elite

Lenovo ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II

The Razer BlackWidow Elite is a full-size mechanical gaming keyboard, while the Lenovo ThinkPad TrackPoint Keyboard II is a compact wireless board well suited for use with mobile devices and tablets. The Razer has many extra features, like macro-programmable keys, dedicated media keys, a volume control wheel, a USB passthrough, and a Windows Key lock. It's available with Razer Orange, Razer Green, and Razer Yellow switches. Comparatively, the Lenovo has mouse click buttons and a TrackPoint nub to control the cursor without a separate mouse. It can pair with one device via Bluetooth and another via USB receiver. It's available with tactile scissor switches only.
