1. Gaming Features
Razer Black Widow V3 Pro
The first category that these wireless keyboards will be going to compared toe to toe with is their gaming features.
One of the reasons you want a high-end keyboard is its compatibility with gaming.
If you are truly a competitive gamer, a regular keyboard just won't do.
The Razer features green switches that offer low pre-travel and light actuation force. It is also available with silent linear switches plus full RGB backlighting and macro-programmable keys that are customizable using the Razer Synapse 3 companion software. The keycaps are great to the touch being made out of Doubleshot ABS plastic, plus the detachable plushy wrist rest adds comfort for hours of gaming.
Logitech G915 Light Speed
The Logitech G915 is equipped with low-profile, highly responsive switches with extremely low latency. It is worth noting that Logitech offers dedicated media controls that allow you to adjust the audio without Minimizing your games.
In addition to that, it has dedicated
macro keys that offer ease of use. Just like the Razer, it is equipped with full RGB backlighting for gaming in dimmer areas.With both keyboards extremely integrated well for gaming,
The Logitech comes out on top in this round due to its media controls and dedicated micro keys that will definitely make your gaming experience better and bit more enjoyable.
2. Devices Compatibility
Razer Black Widow V3 Pro
The second category that these two brands
will be going to compared toe to toe with is their mobile device and tablet compatibility.
There will always be a time when you would opt to use your mobile device or tablet with a keyboard, preferably for work or first-person video games. This is why compatibility with a mobile device is definitely a plus point when choosing a keyboard. The Razer can be paired to your smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth, plus it has a multi-device
feature.
The only downside to this keyboard, however, is its size since it can be bulky due to its wrist rest.
Logitech G915 Light Speed
Logitech, on the other hand, can be paired
via Bluetooth and almost all its keys are compatible with most operating systems. The keyboard, however, isn t portable and is relatively large and heavy. Its most vital
point is its multi-device pairing feature, allowing you to pair it simultaneously
with your smartphone and computer. Both these keyboards aren t exactly the
portable choice for your mobile gadget, however, the Logitech has the upper hand due to its multi-device pairing feature. This is why Logitech earns yet another point in this match.
3. Usability
The third category that these two brands will be going toe to toe with is their ease of use in the office.
Razer Black Widow V3 Pro
An efficient keyboard will always function
well with office work. Even though you might
be using it primarily for gaming, you won't
be able to avoid situations when you're going
to have to use those trusty office programs.
The Razer is great for use in the office due to its ergonomic design thanks to its two incline settings and the detachable plushy wrist rest. Its switches also allow a smooth typing experience without causing any noticeable uptick in typos, however, it can be noticeably loud in the office setting.
Logitech G915 Light Speed
Its opposition, Logitech, features a low-profile nature that makes it comfortable to type on despite not being equipped with a
wrist rest. The GL tactile switches on the keyboard are light to the touch and will minimize fatigue even after hours of typing. The only downside to this is the short pre-travel of the switches, which can lead to more unintended keystrokes thus making it more prone to typos.
Since office work needs the most accuracy when it comes to typing, the Razer proves to be the more favorable of the two, therefore
earning their first point in today's match.
4. Entertainment
The fourth category that these two brands
will be going to compared toe to toe with is their entertainment and home theater PC features.
Razer Black Widow V3 Pro
PCs are also a great source of entertainment
which is why individuals like to use this as their home theatres. Having a keyboard that offers more convenient options when using its home theater system capabilities will definitely be a plus.
The Razer integrates well for use with a home theater PC as you can connect it via Bluetooth or use its USB dongle. It is equipped with dedicated media controls specifically for changing settings as you watch. However, there is no trackpad, so you will need to use a separate mouse to navigate the user interface.
Logitech G915 Light Speed
Just like Razer, Logitech can easily be connected to your TV via Bluetooth and its full RGB lighting allows you to toggle the settings in the dark as you watch your films. Similar to its opponent, it also has dedicated media keys that will enable you to easily pause, play, and adjust the volume with a press of the button.
Due to the lack of a trackpad though, you will need a mouse to navigate the user interface.
Both the Razer and Logitech have virtually
identical features regarding their home entertainment capabilities. For that, our team has decided to give a point to each of them.
5. Programming Features
The fifth and final category that these two
brands will be going to compared toe to toe with is their programmable features.
Razer Black Widow V3 Pro
For a tech enthusiast, a keyboard s programmable features are always a plus. This allows you to customize the keyboard
based on what you have in store for it, allowing for a more streamlined overall experience.
The Razer, being compatible with the Razer
Synapse 3 software, allows you to set macros, reprogram keys, and customize its RGB lights based on your preference.
It doesn't require an account and will enable you to set countless profiles.
Logitech G915 Light Speed
Meanwhile, Logitech proves to have excellent companion software, which allows you to customize the RGB backlighting on a per-key basis and reprogram its macro keys. However, you can t rebind any other key on the keyboard, which is perfectly fine. It is good to note that the onboard memory can save up to three profiles, but the G-Hub software allows you to save as many profiles as you want.
There is also a cloud sync storage available if you have a Logitech account. Keep in mind though that the software only recognizes the keyboard while using the receiver or the cable, and it won t work using a Bluetooth connection.
The Logitech offers far more versatile options, which undoubtedly gives it the upper hand when it comes to its programmable features.Without a shadow of a doubt, Logitech wins yet another round.
