Razer doesn't have many mechanical keyboards. All of them belong to the Black Widow series, and there are differences between the competitive version and the ultimate version according to the lighting effect and key layout. At the same time, it also cooperates with different brand teams to launch corresponding commemorative versions, which will not be introduced one by one. The version viewed is mainly based on the corresponding year suffix. For example, the 2013 version uses Cherry axis, while the 2014 version uses Razer axis produced by Kaihua OEM.
Today, we will introduce Razer BlackWidow TE 2014, which is the competitive version of key 87. The Razer axis produced by Kaihua is the green axis.
In terms of packaging design, Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 is of course a consistent Razer style, and both packaging quality and design style are of high grade. Of course, it is more obvious to see that the Razer green axis designed by Razer is used for the axis body, which is also the biggest particularity of the 2014 version.
The side is related features, such as 1000Hz return rate, conflict free and key wire separation design.
On the back is the corresponding key position introduction and more detailed shaft body introduction. The parameters of Razer green axis have some changes compared with Cherry green axis, mainly faster triggering and bond path.
I really want to express my admiration for Razer's love of green. The inner packaging is also green, which is very comfortable. There is also a layer of kraft paper inside, which is also relatively good.
In terms of accessories, Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 still follows the tradition of Razer, with several manuals and logo stickers, and also comes with a portable protective bag, while the mini USB data cable uses a gold-plated design and woven network. As far as accessories are concerned, Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 comes with a portable protective bag, which is a bit unexpected and full of sincerity. In addition, the interior of the portable protective bag is also designed with a layer of targeted data cables to avoid mutual friction between the two.
Of course, it depends on the appearance of the leader. Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 competitive version is designed with 87 keys, and the key layout is Razer's consistent layout design. Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 is actually a reduced version of Razer BlackWidow in design, such as the bulge in the rear, the small hand rest in the front and the logo lighting effect, which is also the classic element of Razer.
If you have requirements for replacing the key cap, you may be disappointed. The R1 height key cap of Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 is commonly used, but it is a non mainstream arrangement in the current key cap market, so it is difficult to replace it, and it is difficult to have a perfect one.
The borders on both sides are not narrow. Of course, narrow borders are not required by Razer's style. The skin like material is used on the surface. According to my previous experience with Razer BlackWidow, there is no peeling, but it is easier to absorb sweat and oil, which is a little troublesome to take care of.
Of course, what makes me most happy about Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 is that the logo light of the small holder will really light up, which is the biggest highlight and element of Razer products.
Five anti slip pads and two foot stands on the back have good anti slip effect.
The tripod is equipped with corresponding rubber pad.
Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 is designed for separation of keys and wires.
Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 originally has a certain slope. After opening the tripod, the slope is higher and it is more comfortable to use.
The large key position is designed for the balance bar and has corresponding lubrication.
Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 has built-in steel plate, without backlight effect. Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 uses Razer green shaft manufactured by Kaihua, and claims that each shaft body has passed Razer inspection before delivery.
In fact, this Razer green axis has been used before, so it is not too new. The reason why Razer changed from Cherry shaft to Kaihua shaft is also because of the supply of Cherry shaft, which is not special. In terms of hand feel, Razer Green Axis is developed for Cherry Green Axis. Both of them have similar strength and sense of paragraphs, and they are also very close in feedback, but it may be due to the reason of tuning. Razer Green Axis should be a light green axis in performance. Long time use will not make players with less strength tired.
In terms of key cap, Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 uses ordinary ABS material and character technology. The nozzle is more interesting, but there is not much to say.
Razer BlackWidow TE 2014 is currently priced at 399 yuan in JD. Considering all aspects of brand, appearance design, quality and workmanship, there is really no comment other than strong recommendation. If you have some doubts about the Razer green axis, I can only tell you that after testing, screening and time, the Kava axis has been able to be different, and the performance of the Razer green axis is quite excellent, except that there is still a certain consistency problem, it has not become a concern in general.
