Overview

• The BlackWidow V4 Low-Profile HyperSpeed line offers full-size and tenkeyless layouts in an 18.5 mm-thick aluminum chassis with dual sound-dampening foam layers.
• It features Razer’s custom low-profile mechanical switches in clicky, linear and tactile variants that promise faster actuation through reduced travel distances.
• Connectivity includes HyperSpeed 2.4 GHz wireless, Bluetooth and USB-C wired modes with a maximum 1,000 Hz polling rate and an optional power-saving mode rated for up to 980 hours per charge.
• Noteworthy omissions include the absence of hot-swap switch sockets, a polling rate capped at 1,000 Hz compared with top-tier Razer models, and reliance on software for the debated Snap Tap feature.
• Keyboards are available now through Razer’s store and major retailers, but regional MSRPs—around $170 for TKL and $200 for full-size—vary across outlets.
