| Skip if , different | Typists who want a quiet, soft sound with the Green switches Buyers who want hot-swap or custom keycaps Small desks or portable setups | Wireless users Modders who want a standard PCB and layout Buyers who want the newest Wooting hardware, which is the 80HE+ |
| Pros , different | Six dedicated macro keys on the left, a feature few full-size boards still offer (Razer) Four media keys and a multi-function roller (Razer); CGMagazine used the volume wheel constantly Cushioned magnetic wrist rest that CGMagazine found noticeably more comfortable in long sessions 5052 aluminum alloy construction and extra-thick doubleshot ABS keycaps (Razer) Per-key Chroma RGB with underglow and up to 8,000 Hz polling (Razer) Linear Yellow option for a quieter, smoother feel (Razer; PCMag on the V4 Pro) | True 8 kHz polling in Tachyon mode, with Rapid Trigger and 0.1 mm actuation steps (Wooting, WIRED) Wootility runs in the browser or as an app and was praised by both Tom's Guide and WIRED Gasket mount with a polycarbonate plate and screw-in stabilizers; Tom's Guide called the typing feel beautiful Three interchangeable feet (2.8, 6 and 10 degrees), unusual for a metal-cased board (WIRED) ABS (790 g) or zinc (2,160 g) cases, hot-swappable PCB (PCWorld) Four onboard profiles and a four-year warranty excluding the LEDs (Wooting) |
| Cons , different | CGMagazine found the Green switches too loud for its taste Switches are fixed, with no hot-swap Takes more desk space than a TKL because of the macro column and wrist rest Razer's page for this model lists no USB passthrough, which the V4 Pro adds Only one review of this exact model was found; most coverage is of the V4 Pro Relies on Razer Synapse for macros and lighting | Wired only (Tom's Guide) Non-standard 80% layout and PCB limit aftermarket parts (Tom's Guide, WIRED) PC Gamer found some chassis flex on the plastic case; PCWorld noted a rattling spacebar and uneven finish Tom's Guide and PC Gamer both noted rivals that cost less Lekker switches only, with limited switch choice (Tom's Guide) Wooting now sells an updated 80HE+ with Tikken switches and an FR4 plate |
| Research take , different | A feature-packed full-size gaming board whose macro keys, roller and wrist rest suit gamers more than hobbyists. Evidence for this exact model is thin, so check the V4 Pro reviews for the shared parts and choose Yellow if noise matters. | A well-reviewed competitive 80% that Tom's Guide and WIRED rate highly for software and build. Choose it for 8 kHz and Wootility; consider the 80HE+ if you want Wooting's newer switches and plate, or another brand if you need wireless. |
