Ourreviewgave the keyboard 4.5 stars out of 5 and a Recommended badge. Daniel Rubino said, “Typists, minimalists, and gamers who need more desk space will appreciate what the tiny Huntsman Mini offers. With excellent linear optical switches, beautiful colorways, and RGB options, this is one fun mini keyboard.”

This is a 60% keyboard, a form factor that’s growing in popularity these days. That 60% means it’s smaller than a regular keyboard. It doesn’t have the function keys across the top or the arrow keys or numpad you’d normally see. If you don’t use those keys a lot, you won’t miss them. The advantage is you get a really streamlined design that’s compact, fast, and looks great pretty much anywhere. It is ideal for people who spend most of their time doing pure typing or for gamers who need to save some space.

It’s also not quite a mechanical keyboard, either. The Huntsman Mini uses optical switches, which register key presses at the speed of light so they’re actually faster than mechanical switches while still providing those clicks you’ll love with each press.

The Mini also uses Razer Chroma, which is a unique form of RGB lighting. It’s fully programmable with special effects. Plus, you can sync your keyboard with any other Razer gear you have. It even syncs with some third parties like Philips Hue and 30 other partners.
