FAQs
-
What is the difference between Razer™ Mechanical Switches and Razer™ Low-profile Mechanical Switches? Razer Mechanical Switches are full-height in nature, offering up to 4.0 mm in total travel distance, whereas Razer Low-profile Mechanical Switches have a shorter total travel distance of up to 2.8 mm. This enables quicker keystrokes, while still delivering a satisfying typing experience. -
What are the differences between Razer™ Optical Switches and Razer™ Low-profile Mechanical Switches? Razer Optical Switches are designed for speed and performance as they use light to actuate, which eliminates any debounce delay. Razer Low-profile Mechanical Switches are designed to achieve the traditional mechanical switch feel and deliver the brightest RGB illumination. -
Why is there a notch on the wall surrounding the stem of the switch? The modified cross stem allows direct line of sight from the LED itself, ensuring maximum light diffusion through the doubleshot keycaps for the best Chroma™ RGB experience. -
What kind of keycaps are compatible with Razer Low-profile Mechanical Switches? Razer Low-profile Mechanical Switches have cross‑shaped stems, which is the most common stem. Most low-profile keycaps with a cross‑shaped mount will fit these switches. -
Is it possible to use the Razer Low-profile Mechanical Switches on other low-profile keyboards? Low-profile mechanical switches come in a wider variety of designs with different socket types, hence compatibility is not guaranteed with other low-profile keyboards. It is highly recommended not to disassemble the keyboard to access the Razer Low-profile Mechanical Switches.
