Razer Ornata V3 X - Low Profile Gaming Keyboard (Silent Membrane Switches, UV-Coated Keycaps, Durable, Spill-Resistant Design, Ergonomic Writst Rest) UK Layout | BlackECOLOGO

I love this keyboard! I previously owned a Logitech G915 TKL + G502 Lightspeed combo, however after 5 years of ownership I started having connectivity problems, making the keyboard and mouse unusable.So I needed a cheap ‘temporary’ replacement keyboard and mouse, which is when I saw the Razor Ornata V3 X + Deathadder Essential combo on Amazon.And you know what? I actually love this combo so much that I’m not even saving for a new ‘high-end’ keyboard and mouse anymore.Now while yes, the Ornata V3 X and Deathadder Essential do feel a bit cheap to the touch compared to my old Logitech combo (especially the mouse), as well as my old Logitech combo being wireless and the Razor one wired, this is a non-issue for me. I find the Razor combo extremely comfortable and ergonomic. It’s a cheap combo you can buy without breaking the bank that gets the job done. The keyboard feels nice to type on, with nice backlighting for the keys allowing you to use in the dark no problem.Just note, while you can change the RGB on the Ornata V3 X, you cannot change the RGN on the Deathadder Essential.

I bought this to replace a Cynosa V2. Typing is responsive and quiet; nice gentle resistance on the keys for a membrane keyboard and typing heavily isn't loud enough to bother anyone else in the room. It's a cheaper keyboard than the one I'm raplacing, but it feels very similar in tems of quality.I've only gamed for an hour so I'll update this review if needed, but so far no ghosting or issues with multiple or rapid key pressing.The store pictures online of the Ornata V3 X are all of the US layout, as the image on the box, but this version is a UK layout. I've added a picture to this review for confirmation in case anyone is hesitant to buy on that basis.There is only one lighting zone, so there is no custom lighting key by key. The lighting is bright on full and colour is adjustable all across the range. The white lighting is a good white, not an off-white like with many backlit devices.There are no media keys, instead there are Fn-F shortcuts which suits me just fine. The periphery is narrow and inflexible. The wrist-wrest that comes with the keyboard is pretty flat so I'm switching it out for a padded one. It has a soft touch, but it's more of a ramp than a support.

The Razer Ornata V3 is a well-executed evolution of Razer’s hybrid mecha-membrane concept, this time with a low-profile chassis and improved key feel. Coming from a mechanical background, I was pleasantly surprised by the balance of tactility, quietness, and speed this keyboard offers.Technical notes and observations:• Switches: Hybrid mecha-membrane (domed membrane actuators with clicky mechanical stabilizers). The keypress feels tactile and crisp, though quieter and softer than full mechanical. Actuation force feels around 55 g with moderate pre-travel, making it suitable for both gaming and typing.• Keycaps: UV-coated ABS keycaps resist shine effectively and maintain a clean look after prolonged use. Legends remain clear even under heavy backlighting.• Chassis: Low-profile design significantly reduces wrist angle strain compared to full-height boards.• Wrist rest: The included magnetic soft-touch wrist rest is lightweight but stays firmly in place, with enough cushioning for hours of use.• Lighting: Razer Chroma RGB per-key lighting, fully programmable through Synapse software. Effects are smooth and brightness is uniform.Build and usability:The Ornata V3 feels more refined than its predecessors. The board is light yet rigid, with minimal flex and good build quality. The keys are quiet enough for shared spaces, yet still feel satisfying to type on. The shorter key travel helps with fatigue during longer sessions, and the full UK layout with numpad makes it equally suited to productivity work.Pros:• Tactile and quiet hybrid switches• Low-profile ergonomic design• Durable UV-coated keycaps• Excellent RGB lighting and Synapse integration• Comfortable magnetic wrist restCons:• Hybrid feel may not satisfy hardcore mechanical purists• No dedicated macro keys• No onboard memory, relies on Synapse for custom profilesConclusion:The Razer Ornata V3 strikes a great balance between comfort, style, and functionality. The hybrid switches deliver a distinctive experience that is superior to standard membrane while staying quieter and less fatiguing than full mechanical switches. Highly recommended for gamers and office users who want a quiet, low-profile keyboard without sacrificing tactility or aesthetics.

The media could not be loaded. I got this for myself for use with my gaming pc i have another razer mini keyboard which i love however i wanted a full-size keyboard for a few games but that was not going to break the bank, but that was the quantity i would expect. Enter Razer’s Ornata V3 Low Profile Mecha Membrane switches, which offers clicky keystrokes with a soft touch. It arrives in the normal branded Razer package shownThe Razer Ornata V3 is a decent gaming keyboard. It's comfortable to use thanks to the ergonomic features and included wrist rest. You can also customize the RGB backlighting and program macros to any key using the companion software. The keyboard has dedicated media switches which are also backlit, the magnetic wrist rest is good and offers good support. The keyboard is Chroma RGB so can be controlled with the Razer software, as can be seen in the video.However, the pre-travel distance on the mecha-membrane switches is somewhat long, so keypresses don't feel instantaneous, the latency isn't fast enough for competitive or reaction-based games, however is okay for casual gaming, and for what i use it for also, including typing this review.Over all it’s a good good keyboard if your just starting out gaming at a good price with the normal Razer quality happy to recommend.
