Razer Huntsman Mini
A compact 60% board with fast optical switches and quality PBT keycaps. Great for mouse space, though magnetic boards now beat it for FPS.

The verdict
Razer’s first 60% keyboard pairs its optical switches, either clicky or linear, with an aluminium top plate and doubleshot PBT keycaps. Reviewers at PC Gamer, CGMagazine, Geek Culture, Critical Hit and Pokde.Net like how quick and light the switches feel, the quality of the keycaps, and how much desk space the tiny layout frees up for low-sensitivity aiming. Their reservations are the launch price for so little keyboard, the arrow and function keys living on a layer, and a feel that suits gaming better than long typing sessions. Opinions on the linear switches were split, with some finding them a bit mushy.
Buyers at Best Buy rate it very highly across thousands of ratings, mostly for its build quality, compact size and lighting. Smaller groups mention noise, the price and occasional switch problems.
It’s a solid, often-discounted pick for players who want a small board from a big brand. If rapid trigger matters to you, look at the magnetic and analog keyboards higher up the list. The Amazon link is for the linear-switch version.
