Adjustable actuation keyboards, which let you customize how lightly or firmly you need to press a key to register a keystroke, are making waves in the gaming community. If you’re curious about the buzz, check out the Razer Huntsman V2 Analog Gaming Keyboard on Woot for just $80—a remarkable $170 off its original price.
The Huntsman V2 Analog features cutting-edge optical switches that use beams of light to detect keypresses, allowing for precise adjustments based on how far you’ve pressed a key. This “adjustable actuation” capability includes features like analog-style input and rapid trigger mode, though the Snap Tap movement enhancer has stirred some controversy in games like Counter-Strike.
As Razer’s flagship model in the V2 series, this keyboard offers a full 100 percent layout, a plush wrist rest, and RGB lighting that illuminates three sides. It also comes with upgraded PBT plastic keycaps, a step up from the BlackWidow series. While it lacks hot-swap switch sockets—my personal favorite feature for easy switch replacement—the Huntsman V2 Analog is designed with gamers in mind.
Originally priced at $250, this keyboard is now available for an incredible $80 on Woot. Although a newer model with magnetic switches is available, it’s priced at $250. If you’re looking for top-notch gaming technology at a fraction of the cost, this deal is a must-grab.
