Razer Deathstalker Color Change

Posted on
This keyboard is probably the most attractive keyboard on the market. The variety of back light colors, the touch screen, and macro keys making it a very appealing design. The macro keys on the left are perfectly placed for gaming and all the buttons are extremely easy to use. The keyboard is very comfortable and extremely sturdy when tilted up. The touch screen works perfectly for me other than a few issues that I will get to. The reason why the keyboard only received 4 stars was because of 2 problems. My main reason for buying this keyboard other than the looks, was having the ability to manage my music while in games or without minimizing what I was doing. Unfortunately, I found out it was not that easy. The media player can not hook up directly to iTunes, so you have to create a separate folder with about 60ish songs. Also if you do not do it from the start, you have to uninstall the synapse 2.0 because the media player will continue to not read the music if not done correctly the first time(pretty upsetting). I also wish the touch screen had more apps for games like Dota 2, but there is a very very limited variety of apps(like 20 total). My other dislike about this keyboard are the keys itself. Although it looks great, I wish they did not use laptop keys because it can be easy to mishit the wrong key. If Razer is truly for games by gamers, they should know that first hand. If I knew the keyboard was so limited, I probably would have bought a different one, but a beautiful and highly functional keyboard nonetheless.

Ownership: more than 1 year

Pros: Works well and looks good

Baby Eye Color Change

Cons: lighting failed after about 6 months which makes the keys hard to see.

Overall Review: Annoying that the lighting failed, but I love this keyboard anyways.

Very nice but can be improved a lot. Deathstalker Chroma RGB

Cons: a bit of a grease magnet. nothing that a wipe can't fix though.

Overall Review: Fn button would've been great if added on the left side as well, you can't really adjust volume through keyboard with only one hand.
Razer logo in the middle would be nice to light up.

Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Just like the original , but with more colors.
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

Pros: works as it should
will lite up even if computer is off
nice feel
low noise for a gaming keyboard

Cons: could have been built better. its a bit on the flimsy end
for a mid end keyboard i expected a sleeved cord (still a nice flexable cord tho

Overall Review: this was almost exactly what i was looking for in a keybord:
flat

Great keyboard with issues,.. Edit: Broken

Cons: The chroma software is not the same as if I had purchased the black widow. The chroma softwear only supports breathing, static, spectrum , and wave. The key component that most people love, ripple, does not work. That means you lose the effect of key striking and getting colors to ripple across the keyboard. This is the reason I purchased this keyboard and was bummed to find out the software does not support this. Razers website doesn't explain this at all.
Edit: 9 months later the back lighting dies it I touch the keyboard too hard. The keyboard is on a tray that slides out from the desk and if it jiggles too hard the back lighting dies. Cannot return out of warranty. Going to look at other brands now.

Overall Review: Hopefully software updates in the future will correct this. Maybe a rep can confirm this....

Pros: LEDs on keyboard are super customizable. Different sections can be different colors or even special effects. There are also a small handful of apps that utilize the keyboard LEDs. My favorite is the one that makes the keyboard light up to the sound of the music coming through the speakers.
The keys are very nice. They require a decent firm press, which is nice so you don't accidentally hit the wrong key, especially when gaming, and the spacing and layout is clean and functional.
The Razer software has a lot of programming options. Custom shortcuts, macros, etc are easy to set up and use.
Overall I love this keyboard. For gaming, some people have very specific things they are looking for such as additional macro keys. I myself do not want these. This is a professional looking keyboard that looks nice in an office set up or at home at your gaming station. But above all, the COLORS are amazing! I will definitely buy this keyboard again. 5 Eggs no sweat.

Cons: The only thing missing in the software is to switch the F keys to default to volume, play/pause, etc. You could likely do this in the settings manually, but it is a convenience thing I wish was there. Not nearly enough to deter me from owning this keyboard, it's fantastic.

Overall Review: Saw some bad reviews so I needed to chime in. Of course a broken keyboard would be disappointing and needs to be replaced, but this keyboard is great for gamers or for those who want a high quality colorful keyboard.

Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Great Build Quality, Great Support, Fatal Flaw (For Me)Razer support was quick to respond, and had me test a few things, but ultimately suggested I RMA the keyboard. I've opted to return the unit instead. There support was great, and I don't believe there would have been any cost to me with the RMA, which is also nice.
I will repeat that the build quality, and quality of materials is impressive. The shape and design is clean, and every element is well thought out. It is a shame to return it.
Next, I'm not commenting on whether this key type (Chiclet) is ideal for gaming or not. If you prefer mechanical keys, this is not the board for you of course. Key feel, and general typing is exactly what you'd expect from this type of key switch.
One last unrelated bit on the Synapse software. Yes, you must have a Razer account for initial setup, and to ultimately store settings with Razer, but you can certainly put things in offline mode thereafter. I understand some of the concern around the Internet requirement, but don't believe it is a deal-breaker.

Razer deathstalker chroma change color

Pros: Les couleurs sont très bien et c'est le seul point positif que j'ai trouvé.

Cons: plsatique cheap ont sent qu'il renfonce quand on appui sur les touches.
le programme de base pour configurer les couleurs a des bug et pour téléchargé les différents setup d'autres utilisateur qui on créé ne fonctionne tout simplement pas!
s'allume et s'éteint tout seul quand l'ordinateur n'est pas allumé!
aucun port usb sur ce clavier.
impossible de configurer touche par touche comme exemple metre wasd en bleu et le reste blanc il faut débourser d'avantage pour de la qualité et des options.
