Our Verdict
Razer Huntsman Mini
Ducky One 3
The Razer Huntsman Mini and the Ducky One 3 are remarkable gaming keyboards. The Razer is the smallest keyboard in the popular Huntsman lineup, which includes full-size and TKL-sized versions. The Huntsman Mini has two colorways and is available with either proprietary Razer Clicky or Linear Optical switches. On the other hand, the Ducky is available in additional compact 65% and 60% sizes and a range of stock Cherry MX switches. It has four colorways, all of which have hot-swappable PCBs, which allow you to use whichever switches you'd like. Both keyboards have exceptional latency, but the Razer's is slightly lower.
