The world’s first low-profile analog optical esports keyboard, delivering esports-grade speed, precision, and control in an ultra-slim form factor built for all-day comfort.
Razer™, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz, the world’s first low-profile analog optical esports keyboard.
Designed with and made for competitive players, the keyboard delivers the speed, precision, and control of Razer’s flagship esports technologies in an ultra-slim form factor built for all-day comfort. It sets the gold standard for low-profile esports gaming keyboards.
Powered by new Razer™ Low-profile Analog Optical Switches, the keyboard combines Rapid Trigger Mode, adjustable actuation, Razer™ Snap Flex, Razer™ Snap Tap, Dual-Keypress Priority, and True 8000 Hz HyperPolling into a design that proves players no longer need to choose between comfort and competitive performance.
“The Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz takes everything competitive players love about our flagship analog optical switches and brings it into a slimmer, more ergonomic form factor,” said Barrie Ooi, Head of PC Gaming Division at Razer. “For years, low-profile meant trading away performance for comfort. This keyboard ends that trade-off, delivering the speed, control, and precision elite players demand, and it’s already proven itself on the championship stage.”
Built for Pros. Proven by Pros.
Even before launch, the Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz has already demonstrated its performance at the highest levels of competition.
At BLAST Bounty Season 2, MOUZ’s Lotan “Spinx” Giladi competed using the unreleased keyboard on the way to a championship victory. The tournament concluded with Spinx earning the first HLTV MVP award of his career, early validation that a low-profile gaming keyboard can win at the highest level of competition.
“Low-profile has always felt natural to me. Now I get the speed and precision to compete at the highest level.” — Lotan “Spinx” Giladi, 9-time Counter-Strike Champion.
Esports Performance in a Lower profile.
At the heart of the keyboard are the new Razer™ Low-profile Analog Optical Switches, engineered to deliver the same esports-focused capabilities of Razer’s flagship analog optical platform in a slimmer design.
Supporting 0.1 mm to 2.8 mm adjustable actuation, the switches allow players to tailor key sensitivity to their preferred playstyle. Combined with Rapid Trigger Mode, keys reset instantly based on movement rather than a fixed reset point, enabling faster repeated inputs and greater control during high-intensity gameplay.
The low-profile gaming keyboard design also features a reduced 2.8 mm total key travel, helping minimize finger movement and enabling quicker reactions during competitive play.
Faster Inputs. Greater Control.
The Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz gaming keyboard is equipped with True 8000 Hz HyperPolling, delivering exceptionally fast communication between keyboard and system for near-zero latency performance.
In testing with all keyboards set to 0.1 mm actuation, the Razer Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz achieved a 0.39 ms average latency, a 52% advantage over the nearest competing keyboard tested[1].
Every Input, a Competitive Advantage.
First introduced with the Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic 8KHz line, Advanced Input Control now comes to the Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz, extending Razer’s latest competitive gaming technologies to players who prefer a low-profile form factor.
Razer™ Snap Flex enables two actions to be assigned to a single key, one on press and another on release, allowing players to create precisely timed action sequences with a single input. For example, a player can begin preparing a grenade on key press, then have the grenade release and jump trigger simultaneously on key release, making timing-critical plays easier and more consistent to execute.
Dynamic Keystroke allows up to four actions to be mapped to a single keystroke based on actuation depth, enabling advanced combos, layered controls, and multi-step actions from a single key. Combined with Instant Cancel Control, players can instantly cancel unwanted follow-up actions when the situation changes, giving them greater control over every input and helping them adapt faster in the heat of battle.
Dual-Keypress Priority protects intended movement inputs from accidental keypresses, ensuring movement remains consistent even when additional directional keys are pressed. This helps players maintain smoother movement and more reliable control during intense gameplay.
Together, these advanced input technologies give players greater control over not just when a key actuates, but how each input behaves throughout every action.
Comfort Without Compromise.
With a front height of just 19.5 mm, the Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz gaming keyboard promotes a more natural wrist position and reduces finger movement during extended gaming sessions.
The keyboard also features lubricated switches paired with thick internal foam dampening to deliver a smoother and more refined typing experience while maintaining the responsiveness expected from an esports-focused keyboard.
Whether practicing at home or competing on stage, players can carry their preferred settings with them through profile storage and quick onboard adjustments. Complementing this is Razer Synapse Web support, driven by player feedback to enable fast, installation-free access to personalized configurations from virtually any PC.
Low-profile gaming keyboards have traditionally asked players to choose between comfort and performance. The Huntsman V3 Pro Low-profile Tenkeyless 8KHz changes that.
Bringing together Razer’s latest competitive gaming technologies, Advanced Input Control, and a form factor trusted by professional players, it represents a new standard for low-profile esports gaming.

[1] Testing was done across 20 measurements with all keyboards set to 0.1 mm actuation polling rate. Percentage is rounded to the nearest whole number. Latency is measured from the moment of actuation of the switch to the signal being received at the USB port on the host device. End-to-end latency might vary depending on test setup and devices used.
