Review on Razer Huntsman Mini 60% Gaming Keyboard: Fast Keyboard Switches - Linear Optical Switches - Chroma RGB Lighting - PBT Keycaps - Onboard Memory - Classic Black by Kevin Overturf

So I’m a Razer power user. My entire setup aside from my speakers and monitor is Razer. So i have a lot of experience with quite a few of their products.My main keyboard is the Pro Type Ultra which is a fantastic, heavy keyboard that has support for use of 4 devices simultaneously and when wired, is faster than any other board in Razer’s lineup short of the Hunstman Elite with 0.7 ms click latency. Amazing.This keyboard is still blistering quick but at 3.5 ms latency, is a touch slower. Not in a way any user would notice it. I know I didn’t.First impressions of the board is that the Huntsman Mini is sturdy, but much lighter than the full size I’m used to. That was good to me. I wanted to try a compact board for gaming. I hadn’t had per key Chroma illumination. Was fun on Halo Infinite to see the Chroma effects I’m accustomed to stretch to each key.That said, the clickiness was a hit and miss experience. I loved the feel of the clickiness, but the sound, particularly the space bar stabilizer, was squeaky as well. But it is overall very pleasant to type on.However, with typing tests between my two boards, my words per minute and accuracy were higher on my usual Pro Type Ultra. The Pro Type actuates much quicker with its Yellow switches, barely having to push the key before it’s input registers. The Hunstman also doesn’t have a long actuation point, but the nature of the switch means that you do end up bottoming out the key simply by means of using force to overcome the resistance of the switch.Keycaps themselves are amazing. Even if I return this, I’m buying doubleshot PBT keycaps for the rest of my keyboards. No going back to ABS.I suspect had I got the linear switches, I’d be quite happy with this board and give it five stars. If you like click, this will be a joy to use for you.UPDATE: I purchased the Red switches as well. Very nice to type on (more silent than the Pro Type Ultra, which is advertised as silent). Aside from the space bar stabilizer, none of the annoying squeaky reverb that happens on the clicky. Pay up and go red if you give this board a go. I’m personally still torn between this and my Pro Type Ultra. The form factor is really the only thing that has me going back and forth, since I need spreadsheet entry often and the Pro Type already has a 10 key built in. It’s lower latency than any keyboard, including this one, in Razer’s lineup when wired. Tough call.
