In addition, the lightweight 74g design, up to 70 hours of operation on a single charge, and the PTFE mouse sole, which suppresses excess mouse movement, make it suitable for use by professional gamers.

In addition, the new Razer Focus+ optical tracking sensor has a resolution of 20,000 DPI, which is significantly higher than conventional sensors, and a 650 IPS (16.51 meters per second) vs. speed performance.

Other features include a "Smart Tracking" function that eliminates the need for manual calibration, an "Asymmetric Liftoff" function that allows the user to set the landing distance and lift-off distance to improve operational precision, and a "Motion Synchronization" function that transfers data from the sensor to the PC with a precise sense of accuracy to improve response and tracking consistency. The "Motion Synchronization" function is used to improve response and tracking consistency by transferring data from the sensor to the PC with an accurate sensation.

Huntsman Elite -Linear Optical Switch, a high-end keyboard with synchronized illumination and other features for popular games
RAZER will begin selling the Razer Huntsman Elite -Linear Optical Switch (Huntsman Elite Linear), a keyboard with Razer linear optical switches, in Japan on Thursday, October 31, 2019. The suggested retail price is 25,273 yen (excluding tax).

The Huntsman Elite Linear is a new model featuring the Razer Linear Optical Switch, a new type of keyswitch used in the Razer Huntsman Tounament Edition - Linear Optical Switch. The switch is an optical switch that provides fast, highly sensitive keystrokes. The use of infrared light for key press and release detection eliminates the need for programming to avoid false keystrokes due to bouncing, which is unavoidable with normal mechanical switches, and enables high-speed keystrokes with no delay.

It also features a straight tactile feel with no clicks for instantaneous response. The actuation point of 1.0mm, which is 16.67% shorter than that of other companies' linear mechanical switches, and a pressing pressure of 40g realize instantaneous actuation.

In addition, the number of operating parts is also reduced, resulting in dramatically improved durability, with a lifespan of up to 100 million keystrokes. The switch has a built-in metal stabilizer bar, which provides a stable stroke with a stable pressing pressure, no matter which position on the keycap the user types from. The linear optical switches, which boast twice the durability and actuation speed of conventional linear mechanical switches and distribute debounce delays caused by contact contact, have been well received by many professional e-sports players.

In addition, this model supports Razer Chroma, a backlight with 16.8 million color options that allows users to enjoy illumination synchronized with popular games or to have light emission effects in patterns that match the user's preferences.
