Four stars for the price. I understand that it is a loseless Wireless with a huge battery life and fast charging. But when there is no option for NO Wireless, you lock the world in a "useless luxury", while it is chosen for the ideal size in a Gaming Keyboard it has. No, the price is not necessarily excessive, but I would like a cheaper option with no Wireless.
I have the Yellow version and I can confidently say that I am satisfied. I have no idea if there are any differences with the Green Switches version in terms of construction. I generally recommend this choice and not the Green one since it is faster in keystrokes with less noise.
As a user of many 60% Keyboards, from Customs to pre-built ones, I can confidently say that what you need is a 65% and not a 60% if you want a compact Keyboard. I found the extra keys on the edge + the arrow keys of the BW V3 Mini ideal. Yes, in all small Keyboards, you have 100% of the functions through the FN Key in combination with other keys, but it is more direct to have the options you want with a single click instead of searching for combinations. If you find the keys on the edge useless because it says "Home, Page Up, Page Down, Del" and you think they are useless beyond DEL, note that through Razer Synapse, you will be able to customize them as you wish. Personally, I have kept DEL and the rest have been changed to "Print Screen" and Shortcuts for programs I use and for Games.
It connects wirelessly with incredibly low delay to the point where there is no difference from the cable, with a cable that simultaneously charges and with Bluetooth 5.0. So it is automatically compatible with a wide range of devices.
Something that bothers me is the diagonal Design in the front, because by using an Aftermarket Wrist Rest, there is a small distance from the Keyboard to the Wrist Rest. It is not uncomfortable at all, it works fine. My problem is aesthetic.
The build quality is fine for me and I don't know how someone compares it to a "cheap Chinese" one. It combines aluminum on the top with hard plastic on the sides. Maybe, I would prefer the entire Keyboard to be made of hard plastic, as I prefer the sound of these Keyboards more, but I definitely don't complain.
It cleans ridiculously easily. Even without removing the Keycaps, with compressed air or generally with strong air, 90% of the dust and hair that has settled in between disappears.
It has memory for 5 On Board Profiles, which means that you can set up your Keyboard once with Synapse for 5 different Profiles and delete the program from your computer. This way, you will always have your settings with you wherever you are, without the need for extra software.
The Keycaps are Doubleshot ABS and perhaps the highest quality ABS Keycaps in a large company Keyboard. Personally, I replaced them with Razer Phantom Keycaps, but it is a luxury that one does not necessarily need to deal with. Nor does one need to go for Razer PBT Keycaps, no matter how good they are. It's extra money, unless you want to change the color, then I definitely recommend them.
Overall, the performance in Games is excellent. The Keyboard's Stabilizers make a louder noise than I would like, but they are not as bad as other Keyboards on the market.
For enthusiasts and beginners who want to get more involved, with a little modding, the Keyboard can become "the perfect keyboard" or otherwise your "endgame keyboard". I plan to put Lube on the Switches in the future (I already tried it on one key and both the feel and sound became perfect. But I didn't have time to do them all) and put Lube on the Stabs to eliminate noise completely.
