Today, we are looking at the brand new 2016 edition, using Razer's own high specification mechanical switches – could this be the best option for gamers in 2016? Let's find out. 

For the last couple of years, Razer has been manufacturing its own specification mechanical switches in partnership with Kailh. Thanks to Razer's own design tweaks, these switches are rated for swifter actuation and a longer life span.
