Global gaming and lifestyle brand, Razer, has opened the floodgates, releasing a plethora of new gaming products and accessories for gamers (or otherwise) to get their hands on this summer. So far, we’ve seen incredible headphones, heavy-duty laptops for creators and gamers on-the-go, and high-quality gaming mats that can pretty much fit on desks of any size. Now, we get our first glimpse of its latest keyboard with the Razer Ornata V2 hybrid keyboard.
The Razer Ornata V2 is the latest edition of the Ornata series line of keyboards featuring Razer’s Hybrid Mecha-Membrane switches. These switches provide a delicate yet effective balance in providing keys that are soft and comfortable to the touch with the responsiveness and weighted feeling that are to be expected from mechanical switches.
In addition to the comfortable switches, the Ornata V2 features a plush, leatherette wrist rest that magnetically attaches to the front of the keyboard, maximizing comfort for those longer gaming sessions.
The Razer Ornata V2 also features cable routing options to help keep your desk as free as possible of cumbersome wires running all over the top of it.
New dedicated media control, along with an infinite scroll wheel on the Ornata V2 allows for track skipping, play and pause, and volume control in a single area of the keyboard itself. Of course, all of these actions are customizable and programmable through Razer Synapse 3, which also includes Razer Chroma RGB lighting controls, as well as in-game integrations from over 100 titles, including Apex Legends and Fortnite.
Finally, the Razer Ornata V2 isn’t just for gaming, and could be the perfect solution for your home office, especially considering its inclusion of the ten-key number pad. This is a huge plus for those who game and work from home, being able to switch between applications at the drop of the hat.
The Razer Ornata V2 is available right now in the US for $99.99, and can be purchased directly from Razer.com or Best Buy.
