Razer Cynosa Chroma Pro Gaming Keyboard Now Available
Ron Perillo / 7 years ago
Razer is announcing the availability of their new Cynosa Chroma series which are a lot more affordable than their other gaming keyboards. To keep the prices low, obviously they went with a non-mechanical rubber dome implementation. Something they call “soft cushioned”, which is marketing talk for “we don’t want to admit outright that it is membrane or rubber dome”.
There are two options within the Cynosa line: the Cynosa Chroma and Cynosa Chroma Pro. The main difference between the two is the 24 customizable lighting zones for the Pro version, although both have individually backlit RGB keys. The Cynosa Chroma Pro also has integrated lighting profiles which dynamically change during gameplay. Presets for this feature include Overwatch, Quake Champions and more.
Both keyboards also feature fully programmable keys with on-the-fly macro recording. They operate at 1000Hz via USB 2.0. Both are also spill resistant just in case you are the type of gamer to eat in front of their system.
