lol be optimistic, you could always return it and get a new copy of the keyboard that's not defective ^.^

>.<" the buzzz noise is a defect as well??? or all Razer blackwidow does?? if not factory defects... i think all Keyboard should have the same problem right??? that mean change also useless....

Oh i'm afraid you misunderstood me, i meant my friend got a defective BW as well and it had buzz, so when he changed it, there's no buzz anymore. So yes, the buzz is a defect, the keyboard is not supposed to generate the buzz sound.

hooray...... Thanks, u make my life better today... ^^ actually, how do u feel bout blackwidow??

Well it's not my blackwidow but my friend's. And quite a few of them have blackwidows, personally i don't like it because of the "low quality keycaps" <-- Just a personal opinion. I would rather have something like a Ducky (which i have) or a Filco, that is full-sized without weird addons and standard keycaps =/ Of course, that's just my personal opinion. I do not think the blackwidow is a bad keyboard at all, my friends that have it love it.

If you like the blue LED, then go with it! Nothing wrong with having a blackwidow, I just hope that you can get a flawless copy when you go exchange your current one lol

Nasib Baik Ducky SHINE never has such problem.
Send the unit back for RMA, ask them swap a unit for you (7 days Guarantee policy)

They cost around RM900, between 800~1000.

The feel you can read back a few pages back, kianweic did describe them, about how they feel and there's a Video Review as well.

If you wonder how it feels, the Topre Switch are a silent version of brown switch, but Topre switch are very smooth, and i do enjoy more typing on Topre Switch than Cherry MX Switch. In my view, Topre are somewhat a better switch than a Cherry MX Brown Switch. But it still comes down to personal preference.

Well... the whole keyboard are made in Japan, even the switch, there are only 2 manufacturers and they are even located in Japan, Topre and PFU (HHKB).

The Topre Switch is kinda restricted to only available in this 2 Manufacturer. =/

Just send back the keyboard to them and get a RMA replacement unit, Btw, Razer are well known for their crappy quality anyway.

You should have get Ducky Shine instead.

Based on the photos posted earlier, I like the new letter that Razer invented by accident.

Yeah... actually i prefer ducky but u know why i choose razer? because there is a 3.5mm audio jack and USB at the keyboard there... currently i am using Razer Ferox speaker, the cables are damn short... tatz y i am looking for a keyboard that attached audio and USB... finally razer, but crab... damn it...

I will never plug anything extras on my keyboard, i just don't feel right that way, furthermore i felt that it will "ate up" the power in the keyboard and thus making any devices that's plugged into the keyboard to have unstable power.

For an example, headphone plugged in then it will sometimes loud sometimes quiet, mouse lags, yadayada.

Do not always buy stuff for its look, we are buying mechanical keyboard for its quality, its razer that spoiling everyone's mind to get their stuff for its blings look, so stop falling deep into it, you buy razer forex or whatever it called, i can get xmini which is the sane quality as it and PRODUCE the same sound as it, at RM59. So think, be a smart buyer.

Cherry G80-3800 MX Red, coming in limited Quantity

Will Realforce Topre keyboards get shiny as well?

My Filco brown in office looks kinda shiny.

I do like the shiny look of my Filco brown though.

do you mean the Keycap wearing out? i don't think they will get shiny fast thou.

Sorry. My mistake. MX Red will come. But incoming one are MX Blacks

I thought the shiny subject here are the keycaps? Well, all plastic keys will get shiny eventually, just a matter of time.

ABS gets shiny fast, but there are remedies to fix that.
PBT gets shiny slow, but when it shines, it cannot be amended.

No need worry so much, i cant see someone who cant enjoy their mechanical keyboards if they were to type cautiously fearing that their keys would get shiny...


Well, like something that gets dirty, easy to clean while something that's difficult to get dirty, will be hard or impossible to clean... same theory

Yeah that.

Thanks for your explanation.

ABS remedies are what? i think they can be used in PBT as well.

If what you mean are Sandblast or Sanding, this can be done on PBT as well.

The problem with shiny ABS keys is... the shine is not even. The keys that your hands rest on more, or use more will be much shinier. Looks more like oil stain than a proper shine if you know what I mean.

Doubleshots kgo!

Seriously though, they should be worth the money if you detest shiny keys.

Doubleshots(which normally presumed to be ABS, cause PBT can't/hard) doesn't stop/prevent shiny keys, nuff said.

PBT keys do prevent/minimize/slowing the shinning though.
