Our Verdict

Razer BlackWidow V4 Pro

Razer Huntsman V3 Pro 8KHz

The Razer Huntsman V3 Pro 8KHz and the Razer BlackWidow V4 Pro are high-end gaming keyboards. Both keyboards deliver outstanding latency performance, but the Huntsman does have the edge. It uses Razer's optical analog switches, which offer useful features like adjustable actuation that enable Rapid Trigger and other advanced features, while the BlackWidow uses regular mechanical switches. This is the main difference between those two otherwise very comparable keyboards.
