Our Verdict
Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed
Razer Huntsman Mini Analog
The Razer BlackWidow V3 Mini HyperSpeed and the Razer Huntsman Mini Analog are both compact mechanical gaming keyboards that perform similarly well, but they have some key differences. Firstly, the BlackWidow can connect wirelessly with Bluetooth or its USB receiver, and it has better latency. On the other hand, the Huntsman feels better built and uses PBT keycaps instead of ABS. The Huntsman has a feature that lets you adjust the pre-travel distance on a per-key basis, and there's also an "Analog Mode" that emulates the controls of a gamepad.
