Razer Pro Type Ultra - Wireless Mechanical Keyboard for Maximum Productivity (Yellow Silent and Linear Keyboard Switches, Wrist Rest, Multi-Device Dongle, Bluetooth) QWERTY UK Layout | White

I got this to do work with as I had gaming keyboards for my personal set up. In an Office Environment this works incredibly well - its mechancical so it will click but its not too loud and it has just the right level of clickiness to feel like your typing on a good keyboard. Pairing was fairly straightforward as well with the Dongle and with Bluetooth and had I not ignored the instructions I wouldn't have had to go on to Razers website to get the info on the BT Pairing (hint its FN Key + 1, 2, 3 depending on what device your syncing it to). Overall this is a premium device that is well worth the cost for it and I favour it over the likes of my Logitech MX Mechanical equipment that I used to have. One thing however is I would prefer if Razer could pair up multiple devices to a single USB much like how Logitech do but that’s a minor grip/1st world problem that I doubt many would take issue with.

It looks and feels premium in an understated way. It is heavy in a good sense of quality. Tactile and fast to type on with the right sort of sound for keystrokes for myself. Not clicky but certainly feeds back nicely. Light looks decent with many levels of brightness, I leave it off though as presumably it'll eat into battery life. However... It has a strange metallic twang as a secondary sound on some keys sometimes, particularly the space bar. Some say you can't rest your fingers on the keyboard. You can but more lightly than you are probably used to. And certain keys feel easier to accidently press. It feels very slightly small. While it is 'full size' as a keyboard the keys are taller than they are wide. It feels like it is circa 95% the size of a standard sort of keyboard that comes with most PCs. F keys and Function keys are shared. By default Function keys are enabled so you lose F keys unless you install the Razor bloatware and ensure that starts up with windows every time. This will then automatically toggle the keyboard to F keys as default on start up. But you're then trapped, you can't save this setting and uninstall the bloatware, the keyboard has no memory to do so. To be fair the bloatware doesn't seem to intrude, the install is the most spammy part offering nonsense you don't need. I suspect if you don't have admin priviledge and you want to get things done this would be a big hassle. Therefore no function keys with one key press, need to use fn + something. Overall good though, I'm typing faster than usual with about the same error rate.

Love this- looks and feels great. Well constructed. Very responsive. Obviously not cheap, but good quality.

First things first - the actual feel of the keyboard is fine. It's quiet as mechanical keyboards go and perfectly comfortable. Unfortunately, that's where the good news ends. First, there's a truly baffling design decision. The F keys do not function as F keys, by default. Instead, they function as media player controls (e.g. pause, fast-forward, rewind), unless the Function key is held down. There is no way to change this behaviour without installing the Razer Synapse software, which is unpleasant, bloated and (relevant for some) Windows-only. Even if I was willing to bear with that, the keyboard started registering double-inputs on the "f" key after just 48 hours of use. Looking at the Razer forum, this seems to be a common problem. Reseating the key briefly resolved the issue, but it resurfaced after a further 48 hours, with a couple of suspected double-inputs also appearing on the "u" key.

I bought it for my office setup, but I've liked it so much that I've decided to use it in my gaming setup (instead of Alienware keyboard). The sound is not very clicky, which is good for me. It's more like the red silent Cherry MX switches, maybe just a tad louder (but definitely it's not anywhere close to the loud Cherry blue switches). There are so many connectivity options for this keyboard! Also, it's possible to use it while the keyboard is connected to the laptop through the charging cable (I'm writing about it because I've read somewhere that this won't work, which thankfully turned out to be not true). If you want, you can install the Razer Synapse software to unlock some special settings, but it will work just fine without it. I bought it mainly for the design, but turns out it's just a very good and fully functional mechanical keyboard. I love to write on it, hence writing this review :)

Best keyboard I’ve ever owned, but it takes some getting used to, even the slightest touch elicits a keystroke but once you’re a custom with it, it’s plain sailing. The same could be said anytime a person gets a new keyboard though? This is the only downside and why it’s getting a 4 out of 5. I don’t think they needed to make it quite so sensitive. I’ve had the keyboard nearly a year, there’s no sign of wear, cleaning although rarely necessary is easy, as access beneath and around the keys is a doddle. Visually it’s stunning, even the wife commented on it! The quality of the keys, the sleek white lighting (funny adjustable brightness and can even be turned off) is spot on, it’s not even necessary to have the key backlighting on if you want to save battery or just don’t fancy it. I used it plugged in so can’t comment on battery life. Buy with confidence, but beware of light touch and the fact you may need some time to get used to it.

I have the other white one in the range, razor pro type, and I love it for gaming, I now have its bigger brother, it performs very well, the keys are quite and the feel nice when gaming, the wrist rest is a wonderful cushioned design. It’s great for typing and gaming, quality I have really put the pro type through its paces over the years and it’s never let me down, so now I have its big brother and I’m confident it will perform as well as the pro type.

I've had this keyboard for a while now. I love it. It's an immediate and clear upgrade from my G413 of which I've owned 3 in the last 7 years. They were great, served me well both in the office and at home. This Razer however is a better keyboard. It's so much quieter than any mechanical keyboard I've ever owned though it's still louder than a membrane. Some of the quirks I dislike are the fact that the media keys are attached to the function keys. I never like this on any keyboard and I don't understand why keyboard designers continue with this concept. What's worse on this keyboard though is that the volume buttons are attached to F1, F2 and F3. F2 is what I specifically have my gripe with, as I do a lot of data mining and renaming of files and folders. Having to use this key for both volume down and renaming is a pain I cannot begin to explain. It's for this reason I cannot give this keyboard 5 stars. I've given up on using the function keys for media controls and I'm content as there are no other keyboards in my budget that would offer the same functionality (no pun intended) that I need.
