The Razer BlackWidow V3 is a full-size mechanical gaming keyboard that is the wired version of the Razer BlackWidow V3 Pro. At first glance, it's well-crafted and ergonomic, with two adjustable feet and a wrist rest. It features full RGB backlighting with individual light sources for each key, which you can customize using Razer Synapse 3 software, allowing you to set macros for any key. The linear Razer Yellow switches on each key on the keyboard are lighter and have a shorter pre-travel distance for a light and responsive gaming experience, but can lead to more unintentional typos. It also comes with clicky Razer Green switches if you prefer a more tactile feel. This keyboard is also available in a TenKeyLess size called the Razer BlackWidow V3 TKL.

The Razer BlackWidow V3 is not designed to be used in a home theater PC setup. This is a purely wired keyboard, so you'll need to use a cable from the couch to your PC. Also, it doesn't have a built-in trackpad, so you'll need to use a separate mouse to navigate the on-screen menus. On the other hand, it has full RGB backlighting for easy use in dark rooms.
