Razer's Lycosa gaming keyboard has a lot of promise, and it mostly delivers, thanks to its solid feel, smooth typing, and powerful macro capabilities. We wish Razer had paid more attention to the LED lighting, but for strong touch-typing gamers, we think you'll like the Lycosa once you put your...

Small profile; powerful macro software; smooth typing; strong desk grip

Only one spare USB port; dim, non-adjustable LED backlighting; unintuitive software

It's actually not as loud as most people make it to be, which is definitely a plus if you're not living alone, or if you're a college student like me.

I bought this keyboard 2 years ago when i lived at home, and it served well for all types of uses. I used it for gaming, programming, and even school work, like writing papers. I loved it so much that I bought another one for my new place!
