==Points of contention== People in the keyboard community have mentioned the following points of contention about the keyboard and about Razer's official marketing about this keyboard: * The "mecha-membrane" switches. Razer claims a "crisp tactile click", but feel (tactility) and sound (click) are separate and not linked with each other. The keys rely entirely on being [[rubber dome]] for tactility and actuation, and the clicker mechanism is a separate function of a key press. * Razer claims that the keys were made lower in profile to actuate faster, whereas in reality the height of a keycap has no significance whatsoever on actuation distance. On the contrary rubber dome keys need to be pressed to the bottom to actuate. * Razer claims that they combined the "best of both worlds" of mechanical and [rubber dome]. Many people have the opposite opinion on noise, actuation distance and feel on bottoming out. The keyboard does have 6-key rollover though, whereas most other membrane-based keyboards have only 2-key rollover ([[Rollover, blocking and ghosting#Game optimized matrix|optimised]] matrix or not) * Build quality for the price. Razer may further muddle up the terms: * The use of "membrane" as referring to [[rubber dome]]s and not specifically to the [[membrane]]s underneath them. See: [[Membrane vs rubber dome]]. * Razer claims 10-key [[rollover]], but the rollover has been measured to '''6-key''' rollover over [[USB]]. It is suspected that Razer included the four types of [[modifier key]]s, which are normally not counted as those are typically reported separately in the USB protocol. * "Anti-ghosting" incorrectly refers to a way of achieving higher rollover, whereas [[anti-ghosting]] actually means methods to avoid unintended key actuations in a matrix.
