Double portion of silicone and goodbye to soldering
If we look closely at the internal chassis, we are quickly struck by the fact that it incorporates a double layer of silicone designed specifically to cushion the metallic impact of the keys and put an end to that annoying hollow box resonance.
Additionally, the printed circuit board comes with hot-swap connectionswhich in practice allows you to mount the vast majority of three- and five-pin mechanical switches on the market without having to deal with a soldering iron. A very well thought out detail for the most demanding is that the LED diodes are oriented downwards. This is so as not to suffer physical interference if the user decides to change the keys for alternative low-profile sets, such as the classic Cherry format.
The peripheral includes the third-generation Razer Orange touch switches, known for offering a sharp but fairly quiet feel, in addition to arriving lubricated directly from the assembly line. To finish off the set, it has double-injection ABS plastic keys in three tones, which ensures that the letters do not erase with continuous use.
As Barrie Ooi, head of PC at the company, explained, the idea with this model is to find a middle point between having a quality product from the first minute and giving the user total freedom to tinker and change parts over time.
Designed to play at full speed
Razer wanted this to be a keyboard aimed at gamingas well as for users who spend all day writing. The device does well in this regard by maintaining a 1000 Hz polling rate via cable and full integration with the Razer Synapse suite.
The firmware’s strength lies in advanced input features such as Snap Tap, Snap Flex and double-tap priority, designed to gain agility when changing direction in fast-action titles. Basically, these tools are responsible for automatically canceling opposing presses, guaranteeing immediate dodging maneuvers without having to wait for the physical recovery of the spring.
As we mentioned at the beginning, the keyboard can now be purchased for 69.99 euros on the brand’s Spanish website, a figure that is very competitive for a model with an interchangeable circuit. Of course, for the moment we have to deal with the absence of the ISO format with its characteristic vertical Enter and the characters in Spanish. The company already has on the horizon to expand this family with the future Reclusa Mini, so we will have to remain attentive to see if in the next variants they decide to finally remember our market.
