Razer Huntsman V3 Pro line – For The Pro.

The battlefield just got an upgrade: Presenting the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro line. Designed in collaboration with esports pros, this gaming keyboard line offers an unmatched blend of innovation, precision, and durability.

At the core of the Huntsman V3 Pro line is the Razer™ Analog Optical Switch Gen-2, which adds a new level of responsiveness while gaming. Its fully adjustable actuation range from 0.1 - 4.0 mm now allows gamers to completely customize their desired actuation points for each key and set shallower actuation points for swifter keystrokes, tuning it to their unique gameplay needs. Every switch on every keyboard is carefully factory-calibrated for utmost precision, while being immune to magnetic interference. The switches are tuned to a 40 grams actuation force, which is preferred by pro players, and allows for rapid actions in intense FPS gaming scenarios.

The Huntsman V3 Pro keyboards also feature Rapid Trigger Mode. This allows for a key to be reset at the very instant it travels upwards, ready for the next keystroke. Rapid Trigger is crucial for FPS gameplay as it allows gamers to have snappier movements and more accurate shots. Its sensitivity can be further tweaked, down to ultra-fine steps of 0.1 mm.

Leading the Huntsman V3 Pro line is the full-sized and TKL variants, boasting a 10 LED array, simplifying both actuation distance adjustments and Rapid Trigger sensitivity. The mini version, while compact, makes use of its number row to ensure users experience no compromise in settings customization. Essential to the dynamic world of esports, these keyboards allow gamers to adjust settings on the fly and store up to six profiles directly on onboard memory. This ensures that competitive settings are always at a gamer's fingertips. Razer Synapse further elevates this, offering users an even deeper level of customization.

Combining aesthetics and durability, the Huntsman V3 Pro keyboard line is Razer’s dedication to lasting quality. The Textured Doubleshot PBT Keycaps and the sleek brushed finish aesthetic of the 5052 aluminum alloy top plate, are specifically chosen for their resilience, ensuring that the keyboard not only performs at its peak but also stands the test of time. Complementing this steadfast design, the Magnetic Firm Leatherette Wrist Rest provides gamers with the comfort needed for extended gaming marathons.

Developed in collaboration with esports pros, every feature is intricately crafted to achieve peak competitive performance. "The responsiveness of this keyboard is incredible with Rapid Trigger and a lighter actuation force. It feels like the keyboard is a part of me," stated VCT Korea Champion 2022, Kim "stax" Gu-taek, pro VALORANT player for DRX.

The Huntsman V3 Pro line is Razer's response to the evolving demands of competitive gaming. Combining cutting-edge tech, top-tier performance, and premium build quality, it is an indispensable tool for every pro gamer.

Testing was conducted by Razer’s technical team in July 2023 using a desktop with Intel i5 8600K CPU, 8GB RAM, and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 under standard conditions. The actual improvement might be less and can vary based on usage, software, power settings, and other conditions.

Gamers have been bringing their desktops to life with high-resolution wallpapers for ultra-wide and multiple monitors, and the platform has also supported independent artists in showcasing their creations to gamers directly. Now, Razer presents Razer Axon Create, the next level for the platform, empowering everyone to create their own high-resolution wallpapers and add their own Chroma effects with Razer’s AI machine learning technology in three easy steps.

Using the simple text prompt, anyone can generate unique wallpapers. The AI Generation tool is powered by Leonardo.Ai, a sophisticated generative AI platform, designed with the needs of both gamers and artists at heart. The new Chroma Generate function automatically generates a vibrant set of Razer Chroma effects based on the core colors of the AI generated image and can re-generate multiple sets of effects repeatedly until the creator is satisfied. Chroma Generate has been trained to determine the best AI color-matching and will select the most vibrant color selection for the Razer Chroma effects. When satisfied, creators can instantaneously apply their wallpaper and Razer Chroma effects to their PC desktop.

Razer Meets Sustainability Target Ahead of Schedule, On Track for Industry-First Environmental Labelling

With RazerCon once again being a carbon neutral livestream, the company announced further commitments towards its 2030 net zero goals, along with a new range of initiatives to drive greater consumer awareness of environmental impact and responsibility. By the end of 2022, 100% of Razer’s global offices were powered by clean or renewable energy, 3 years ahead of the company’s stated commitment date of 2025. In parallel with this, Razer is proud to announce that it has reduced its own carbon emissions by more than 90% since 2019, through the pro-active management of its Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

Razer is not stopping there and has highlighted further carbon reduction plans. Razer will work with its supply chain partners to achieve a 55% reduction in supply chain carbon intensity by 2030. This will be achieved with a series of comprehensive ‘cradle to gate’ interventions, encompassing the reduction of emissions by incorporating recycled materials in 100% of all product lines, optimized manufacturing processes, packaging, and transport, as well as encouraging and enabling greater recycling when a product reaches the end of its life.

Last year, Razer unveiled the brand’s first products to be validated by UL Solutions – the DeathAdder V2 X HyperSpeed and Razer Ornata V3 with up to 40% recycled materials. This year, Razer is working towards announcing what may be the world’s first Type III Ecolabel for consumer electronics products, allowing gamers to make a far more informed choice when buying a new product.

Similar to food nutrition labels, the new Type III label not only details the carbon footprint of each product, but also lists the water, mineral, and fossil resource usage. Razer believes that this information is critical in giving their community complete transparency on the environmental impact of its products. This type of stringent, independently verified, transparent labelling is not only a first within the gaming industry, but a first within the consumer electronics industry.

Razer is committed to genuine and effective initiatives that can be independently verified and certified. As such, Razer has joined the Science Based Targets initiative, a multinational group of companies willing to commit to, and achieve, the highest standards of environmental impact awareness and mitigation. Razer has also joined Amazon’s Climate Pledge Friendly program, with the aim of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2040, a decade ahead of the Paris Climate Accord.

For more information on the Razer’s sustainability programs and #GoGreenWithRazer initiatives, please visit Razer.com/Go-Green.

For fans passionate about the Razer experience, both the RazerStore Los Angeles and RazerStore London will showcase select products launched at RazerCon 2023. Gamers can immerse themselves firsthand in these innovations from today until September 24, 2023.
