What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
The 2019 blackwidow's body has a sturdy matte black plastic finish with minimal/no flex when you try to bend the keyboard. The lighting of the keyboard for me is overkill, but it lights up very well and makes it easy to orient your hands on the keyboa... Read More
