Nice but... this is far from something can can be called an ultimate version...
1. Where is the Chroma lighting?
2. Where are the yellow and orange versions? (No 45g / 1.2mm actuation force versions)
3. Where is the wrist rest?
4. Where are the Macro keys on the left?
Pass; I am pretty sure those will come down the line, don't waste your money before then.

I used to have the first Blackwidow Chroma. What a turd it was, really loud. Got filthy all the time and worst part was the keys would stick mid game and get you killed!
Oh and the lack of wrist rest was ridiculous.
Safe to say my k95 platinum is the best and I'd never buy a Razer keyboard again!
Do You saw Razer Black Widow v2 wrist rest ?

wonder if dust resistant improve or even fix double-click that many said caused by dirt/dust trapped in the microswitch
also need to make note here is h2o ... so no sticky liquid (coke, energy drink) or coffee
otherwise not sure if they run out idea or what
but if they want, they should can make it possible since they release it first time
