Announcement posted by Razer ANZ 13 May 2026
IRVINE, CALIF. - 12 MAY 2026 - Razer™, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced the Razer Huntsman V3 Tenkeyless 8KHz, an analog optical esports keyboard built on the same competitive foundation as the Huntsman line.
Streamlined, focused, and purpose-built, it brings Razer's core performance technologies into a tenkeyless form factor engineered to perform reliably straight out of the box — whether at home, on stage, or on the move.
The Huntsman Advantage
At the heart of the Huntsman V3 Tenkeyless 8KHz are Razer™ Analog Optical Switches Gen-2, which register precise input by measuring light through the switch stem across the full travel range.
By eliminating physical contact and debounce delay, each keystroke is detected cleanly and consistently, supporting stable execution across long sessions and repeated inputs. The optical analog switches are also immune to magnetic interference, ensuring clean and reliable input with every press.
Rapid Trigger and adjustable actuation let players fine-tune responsiveness to match their playstyle without compromising accuracy or long-term reliability, enabling fast resets, controlled movement, and confident execution when timing matters most.
True 8000 Hz HyperPolling
In competitive play, speed is measured in milliseconds. With true 8000 Hz HyperPolling, the Huntsman V3 Tenkeyless 8KHz reports inputs up to eight times faster than standard gaming keyboards, minimising input delay and keeping keystrokes tightly synchronised with on-screen action.
This ultra-high polling rate supports faster movement corrections and more precise timing during clutch moments, helping players maintain control as the pace accelerates.
Adjust on the Fly. Stay in the Zone.
The Huntsman V3 Tenkeyless 8KHz puts critical controls within easy reach. Actuation point, Rapid Trigger sensitivity, and Snap Tap can be adjusted directly on the keyboard, with visual feedback through the number row confirming changes instantly. Preferred settings save onboard, no software required.
Razer Synapse Web extends that control into a lightweight, browser-based experience, accessible from Chromium-based browsers with no installation required. Built for instant access and competitive environments, it lets players load and save onboard profiles wherever they compete.
For deeper customisation, Razer Synapse remains the home for advanced configuration and game-specific profiles.
Consistent Feel. Every Round.
Individually lubricated switches and internal foam dampening deliver smoother actuation and a cleaner, more controlled acoustic profile, maintaining rhythm, accuracy, and focus across extended sessions.
The refined keystroke feel ensures that what a player practices is exactly what they execute on stage.
Built to Compete, Not Just to Spec
The Razer Huntsman V3 Tenkeyless 8KHz combines ultra-low latency, precise analog optical inputs, real-time control, and a compact, tournament-ready design. More than a feature set, it is a competitive tool for players who demand the best.
