The Razer Huntsman V2 Analog is the most advanced keyboard from Razer, and for Black Friday 2021, Amazon UK has it for just £139, which is 44 percent off its usual £249.99 price tag. Compared to other Razer keyboards currently on offer, this is easily the best price for a keyboard that ranks among one of Digital Foundry’s picks for the best gaming keyboards.
As a premium mechanical keyboard that goes to replacing the Huntsman Elite as Razer’s flagship keyboard, the V2 Analog name comes from having unique optical analogue switches, allowing you to customise the actuation of your keys down to the millimetre. Basically, it doesn’t just recognise which key has been pressed but how far it has been pressed. This opens up the possibility of using the same key for multiple functions, such as using an analogue key to change between walking and running in a shooter based on how hard you’re pressing the key, or the arc and distance you’re throwing a grenade. While not all games will necessarily support analogue keys, it’s potentially transformative for the games that do, at the very least providing opportunities for new macro inputs.
