What is it: Gaming keyboard with LED backlighting
What we think: Thanks to its rubber-coated keys, it's excellent for confident touch-typing gamers

Tags: razer, stream, typing, dedicated
We like:
Small profile; powerful macro software; smooth typing; strong desk grip
We don't like:
Only one spare USB port; dim, non-adjustable LED backlighting; unintuitive software
CNET.co.uk judgement:
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 hands on it
