The new keyboard is based on one infrared beam for key detection and the result is up to 50 percent more key travel at 1.7mm.
ΑThis week, Razer announced that it has developed the world's first optical keyboard for use in laptops and Razer Blade 15 Advanced will be the first laptop to be equipped with it.
The need to keep laptops slim means that compromises must be made in keyboard design. Sometimes these compromises are made at the expense of functionality. Razer decided to take a different path and it is the one that obviously allowed it to meet the demands of gamers with a better design.
The new keyboard is based on an infrared beam for key detection. The result is a 1 mm trigger point at 55 grams of trigger. Razer promises up to 50 percent more key travel at 1,7mm while maintaining the feel of a "mechanical keyboard".
The change in design did not mean the loss of any of the features that gamers are looking for in a laptop. The keyboard will be available first at Razer Blade 15 Advanced, which has the N Key Rollover with anti-ghosting.
Obviously, the optical keyboard retains the RGB Razer Chroma backlight on each key, with 16,8 million colors. The Razer Blade 15 Advanced costs $ 2.649, but contains a Core i7-9750H processor, 16GB DDR4 RAM, GeForce RTX 2070 and nvme while the 15,6-inch screen has 1080p resolution with 240Hz refresh rate. It is perhaps one of the few times that the price does not sound so absurd.
Due to the fact that the keys are based on light, there is a question mark as to whether the concentration of dust can affect their operation. We hope Razer has found a way to solve this problem in its infancy.
