The Razer Black Widow Ultimate 2016 is a fantastic keyboard. Not only does it look awesome but the Razer Green switches might just be my new favourite, offering satisfying tactile feedback with each press.

While this isn't an RGB or ‘Chroma' keyboard, if you're a fan of green then this keyboard should fit your set up nicely. The green board underneath the keycaps helps reflect the light and illuminate under each key – the LEDs are capable of being very bright too.

While a lot of gaming keyboard makers have started to move away from the USB and audio pass-through, I was delighted to see that Razer has included it here and it did not go unappreciated.

The Black Widow Ultimate 2016 Edition is available directly from Razer's store for £99.99. It's expensive but you will be getting one of the best gaming keyboards around in return.

KitGuru Says: The Razer Black Widow Ultimate 2016 is one of the best keyboards I have come across. It is expensive but Razer's mechanical switches are excellent and should be given some serious consideration.
