this keyboard, you get the best of both worlds--the latest in Razer gaming technology with the comfort and reliability you expect from Microsoft.

You'll also be able to improve your efficiency with 12 custom-programmable buttons that include two 360 degree jog-dials and two bumper buttons conveniently located on each side of the keyboard for faster control and optimized gameplay. What's more, you'll never lose sight of your keys in the dark with the cool blue ambient backlighting. Get the edge over your opponents in dim lighting conditions. There's also a detachable wrist rest for maximizing comfort and ergonomics.

Store your macros onto five different profiles with the Razer Reclusa Configurator to suit your gaming needs. With "on-the-fly" gaming detection, switching profiles has never been so convenient. Gaming detection allows you to automatically switch to the appropriate profile when a particular game is launched. Meanwhile, a smart cabling system allows you to stow away the USB cable when not in use or shorten it when necessary. Lastly, two gold-plated USB connector ports maximize connectivity and maintain transmission integrity.

2 out of 5 stars Too flimsy   October 2, 2008
A. Espin (Downey, CA USA)
I have had this keyboard for approximately 6-8 months and I just have to say that I am dissappointed in the quality of this keyboard. I have had other Microsoft keyboards that are not supposed to be gaming keyboards that have lasted me longer than this one did. I will not be buying this keyboard ever again.


4 out of 5 stars Great   August 25, 2008
Nicholas Scott
A great product,however it is quite a bit bigger than a standard keyboard and that tends to make you miss keys when your not accustomed to it. The backlight is great and is nice for gaming in the dark. However I got done for shipping, got a bone to pick with amazon, but all in all a great product.


5 out of 5 stars great keyboad   July 20, 2008

I have been very happy with my keyboad. It works great in low light situations and even better in no light!


2 out of 5 stars Is it the Keyb too sensitiive or is my fault?   July 1, 2008

I really like this keyb. It is absolutely fancy, mmatch my PC coolors and add a soome style to my desk.

Hoow dooes it works? Not that goood IMO. Great when gaming, but so far horrible typing a docuument.

II come from a very standard keyb, one of those for 10 bucks att any store, and typing docs and email i never had typo issues. Noisy clicks, mayybe yes, not fanncyy look, ok.. for 10 bucks, but no typo mistakes whatsoever.

The Reclusa, looks nice, has a soft keyb, not too noisy, but for me is a nightmare to type on. mayybe tooo sensitiive, but thhere is no way to really fix thhe problem. I already set evverything I could at low sensitivity. Ok I''ll show you what I mean:

-- Starting now, I am typing withhout fix alll the typo errors gennerated by thhe kkeyboard. As you can see, it''s a nightmare. of course iit possibble it s mme, althou withh my old keybb iit never hhappened and at mmyy office i have no issues wiithh a bbasic DDELLL kkeybb. ----

So, now you have an idea. I am tryinng to get used to it. Writiing a documents takes ages now and I am not happy for this. It is possible I will send it back if i cannot improve my typing skills on it.

I will give it a shot, and that s why I set 2 stars. otherwise it would be only 1 star. All the othher functionalities are absolutely OK and a snap to programm.

Unfortunately, if u cannot use a keyb to type, in my mind it fails the reasoon why it exists.



5 out of 5 stars I've bought two   May 27, 2008
William Kerney (San Diego, CA)
I'm a computer science guy, and I'm very picky when it comes to accessories to my computer. Keyboards and mice have to feel just-so, monitors can't have the flicker I see on 75% of LCD screens, etc.

I picked up one of these on a whim when CompUSA went out of business (at 70% off), and fell in love with it. Even though it bears the Microsoft logo (which generally means average quality), it bears the marks of the quality engineering of the Razer co-developers.

Yes, as other people have said, the software for it is terrible, and by default, the eject button will eject your CD. But -- you can set the keyboard to control Winamp (or Windows Media Player) instead, and then the play/shuffle/eject/next/previous keys on the keyboard control your mp3 player *from inside a game*. If I'm playing a full-screen game and a song I want to skip comes on my playlist, I no longer have to alt-tab out and back in (which can take ages, or crash some games) -- I can control winamp directly from inside of the game. Including the volume, which is also awesome.

I also disable the buttons which launch Firefox and Thunderbird when in full-screen mode, so as to avoid accidentally punching them (though after using the keyboard for a week, I no longer do so), and don't see any use for the copy/paste buttons or the left jog dial (which works just like a mouse scroll button).

However, the ability to control Winamp from inside of a game + the LED backlighting (which is critical in low light situations) + the very well-tuned feel of the keys made me like the keyboard so much, I bought a second one for my second main computer. I highly recommend it.
