Razer’s hot-swappable wireless BlackWidow V4 keyboard falls below $100 at Best Buy
Razer’s BlackWidow V4 Tenkeyless HyperSpeed brings wireless connectivity and replaceable mechanical switches to the desk for $99.99 at Best Buy. The retailer displays a comparable value of $179.99, an $80 difference.
The offer covers the black RZ03-05480200-R3U1 model with Razer Orange Tactile Gen-3 switches. Best Buy showed it sold by Best Buy and available to add to cart when checked, with free shipping shown to Aiea, Hawaii, in search results. No coupon or paid membership was shown as necessary for the displayed price.
That $80 figure is against Best Buy’s comparable value, not proof the keyboard typically sells for $179.99. The same model was advertised at $99.99 during an October sale, so this is a return to that price rather than a new low.

Switches you can change without soldering
The tenkeyless layout keeps the main keyboard and navigation keys while leaving out a separate number pad. That gives a mouse more room, although anyone who enters lots of numbers may prefer a full-size board.

The included Orange switches have a tactile feel. Razer says the hot-swappable sockets accept compatible three-pin or five-pin mechanical switches, letting owners change the feel later without soldering. Replacement switches are a separate purchase.
Inside, Razer lists a steel plate, lubricated stabilizers and layers of foam intended to influence typing acoustics. There is also a multifunction roller and three remappable control buttons, alongside per-key RGB lighting. Sound and key feel are subjective, so check reviews or try a tactile board if those are priorities.

Two wireless connections, with a battery trade-off
The keyboard supports Razer’s 2.4GHz HyperSpeed wireless and Bluetooth, including switching between three paired Bluetooth devices. Razer advertises up to 980 hours of battery life, but its power-saving mode reduces polling rate, turns the lighting off and pauses Synapse connectivity. Actual runtime depends on settings and use.
The deal is for the standard-height tenkeyless version, not the similarly named low-profile BlackWidow. Check the model number and current delivery options before ordering; prices and availability can change.
