➤ Razer Huntsman V2 Analog, analog Optical Switch for maximum control 🎮

Razer announced this morning the arrival of a new version of its award-winning Huntsman keyboard, the Razer Huntsman V2 Analog - a new keyboard packed with Razer's cutting-edge technologies. With the introduction of analog input, true full-range directional motion is finally available in PC gaming without the use of a controller. Gamers can also unlock a new dimension of play thanks to the ability to fully adjust and program each implementation down to the millimeter.

Razer's Analog Optical Switches

Razer's Analog Optical Switch not only represent a technological revolution in the world of switches, but also the keystone for an unprecedented gaming experience. The unique innovation combines three components: analog input, adjustable actuation and two-stage actuation.

Analog input: Analog input emulates that of an analog joystick for smoother control and maneuverability. This finesse removes the limitations of 8-way WASD movement, allowing for real 360-degree motion for the benefit of controller-optimized games, such as third-person games, cross-platform shooters, racing games and simulators.
Adjustable actuation: You can also calibrate and adjust the actuation point of each key to suit any style of play - from a quick 1,5mm actuation for high-speed gaming to a full 3,6mm actuation for deep, thoughtful pressure of the keys.
Two-stage implementation: with two-step actuation, one push of the button can activate two programmed functions set at two different actuation points. It essentially offers twice the functionality for each key pressed and is suitable for activating advanced combos in games - such as pulling out a grenade and throwing it with the same key press.

“We are constantly looking for cutting-edge innovations in gaming keyboard switch technology. Through repeated testing and research with our community, we've designed a never-before-seen switch that opens the door to a whole new gaming experience, ”said Alvin Cheung, Senior Vice President of Razer's peripherals business. "With the new Razer Analog Optical Switch technology, you can now enjoy the full potential of PC gaming and experience absolute control."

Born from the famous Razer Optical Switch, these too Analog Optical Switch they use the speed of light to operate each key. In fact, they keep track of how much light passes through the switch and allow the keyboard to measure the pressure level on each key. And unlike traditional mechanical switches, they require fewer moving parts and no metal contact - just pure light. With no physical contacts that degrade over time, these switches can easily last up to 100 million actuations.

Updates based on community feedback

As a new addition to the Huntsman family, the Razer Huntsman V2 Analog includes updates based on community feedback regarding the Huntsman Elite, while retaining the fan-favorite form factor and multimedia keys with a digital dial.
