Our Verdict

Razer Huntsman Mini

Corsair K65 RGB MINI

The Razer Huntsman Mini and the Corsair K65 RGB MINI are outstanding compact 60% gaming keyboards with similar performance and features but different switch types available. The Razer has multiple keyboard incline settings and is available with Razer Clicky Optical or Linear Optical switches. On the other hand, the Corsair has more stable keys, rubber feet with better grip, a much higher maximum polling rate, and linear Cherry MX Speed switches.
