The keyboard has gotten a few noteworthy changes. The keys have a 1.5 mm travel distance, giving them a tactile and mechanical feel. The actuation feels heavy, though I like the precision it adds. Razer has also added five macro keys on the right underneath the power button and \u201cdual-LED\u201d RGB backlighting. That means pressing and holding the Function or Shift keys will light up the secondary function of each key that has one. It\u2019s superfluous, yes, but I have to admit it\u2019s neat. The expansive, glass touchpad is great as well. I\u2019ve had problems in the past with misclicks and palm rejection, but that\u2019s all been ironed out.<\/p>\n

Razer used to offer two display options, one of which was a 4K panel, but now there\u2019s just one option: an OLED 240-Hz screen<\/a> with a 2,560 x 1,600-pixel resolution. Interestingly, with the RTX 5090 onboard, this feels like the first display that could produce better frame rates at that high resolution.<\/p>\n

The OLED panel is fantastic in terms of image quality. It\u2019s impressive in terms of color saturation (100 percent sRGB, 94 percent AdobeRGB) and color accuracy<\/a> (Delta-E of 0.42). At a max of 381 nits, it\u2019s not the brightest display in the world, but that\u2019s what you get with OLED. The mini-LED displays Razer formerly offered were considerably brighter both in SDR and HDR, but the high contrast and fast response times of OLED make it unbeatable. I haven\u2019t tested it myself, but the 2025 version of the ROG Zephyrus G16 claims to hit 500 nits with its OLED panel.<\/p>\n
