Razer™, the leading global lifestyle brand for gamers, today announced the Razer Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic 8KHz line, a new Hall Effect (HE) magnetic gaming keyboard addition to its esports keyboard portfolio.
Available in Tenkeyless and Mini 65% form factors, the lineup combines Razer™ Hall Effect Magnetic Switches, true 8000 Hz HyperPolling, and a suite of advanced input controls to deliver cleaner, faster, and more consistent commands.
“The Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic 8KHz line reflects our approach to technologies at Razer,” said Barrie Ooi, Head of PC Gaming Division at Razer. “While our analog optical keyboards remain the benchmark for players seeking the absolute best in esports performance, the Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic 8KHz line is designed for competitive players looking for the best magnetic keyboard.”
Engineered for Magnetic Precision.
At the heart of the lineup are Razer™ Hall Effect Magnetic Switches, engineered for consistent, accurate inputs through magnetic sensing. With adjustable actuation from 0.1 to 4.0 mm, players can fine-tune how each key responds – from ultra-fast inputs for competitive scenarios to more deliberate control for everyday play.
Rapid Trigger Mode allows keys to reset dynamically based on movement rather than a fixed reset point, enabling faster repeated inputs during high-speed gameplay. Combined with a 100-million keystroke lifespan, the switches are built to deliver long-term durability and consistent performance.
Blistering Speed. Near-Zero Latency.
True 8000 Hz HyperPolling delivers faster signal updates between keyboard and system, cutting input delay so actions hit the screen the moment they happen, even during rapid directional changes and fast execution.
In testing with all keyboards set to 0.1 mm actuation and 8000 Hz polling, the Razer™ HE Magnetic switches achieve a 0.60 ms average latency, an 8% advantage over the nearest competing HE magnetic keyboard tested[1].
Tuned Feel. Balanced Sound.
Beyond performance, the lineup is tuned for keystroke feel and acoustics, delivering a more controlled and consistent typing experience.
Each keypress is engineered for smooth, stable actuation, paired with a balanced sound profile that stays satisfying through extended gameplay and daily typing.
Every Input, a Competitive Advantage.
The Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic 8KHz line introduces a new generation of advanced input controls built for modern competitive play.
Razer™ Snap Flex enables two actions to be assigned to a single key—one on press and another on release—allowing players to create precisely timed action sequences with a single input. For example, a player can begin preparing a grenade on key press, then have the grenade release and jump trigger simultaneously on key release, making timing-critical plays easier and more consistent to execute.
Dynamic Keystroke allows up to four actions to be mapped to a single keystroke based on actuation depth, enabling advanced combos, layered controls, and multi-step actions from a single key. Combined with Instant Cancel Control, players can instantly cancel unwanted follow-up actions when the situation changes, giving them greater control over every input and helping them adapt faster in the heat of battle.
Dual-Keypress Priority protects intended movement inputs from accidental keypresses, ensuring movement remains consistent even when additional directional keys are pressed. This helps players maintain smoother movement and more reliable control during intense gameplay.
Together, these advanced input technologies give players greater control over not just when a key actuates, but how each input behaves throughout every action.
Tune on the Fly. Compete Anywhere.
In addition to full customization through Razer Synapse for PC and quick onboard adjustments directly on the keyboard, the Razer Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic 8KHz line now supports Synapse Web for browser-based control with no software installation required.
With Synapse Web, players can make essential adjustments on the fly, save settings to onboard profiles, and keep their preferred configurations consistent across personal PCs, shared setups, LANs, and tournament environments.
Magnetic, Mastered.
This is Razer’s benchmark for the magnetic category: precision, true 8000 Hz speed, and control that makes every action intentional.
The Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic 8KHz line gives competitive players everything they need to perform when it matters most, and defines what a magnetic esports keyboard should be.

[1] Testing was done across 20 measurements with all keyboards set to 0.1 mm actuation and 8000 Hz polling rate. Percentage is rounded to the nearest whole number. Latency is measured from the moment of actuation of the switch to the signal being received at the USB port on the host device. End-to-end latency might defer depending on test setup and devices used.
