Our Verdict

Razer Huntsman

Razer BlackWidow V3

The Razer Huntsman and the Razer BlackWidow V3 are both exceptional for gaming. The V3 comes with a wrist rest, dedicated media keys, and a programmable volume control wheel. It's available with linear Razer Yellow or clicky Green mechanical switches. On the other hand, the Huntsman comes with Razer clicky optical switches.
