Ergonomic form factor for precision and maximum comfort
The Razer Nostromo’s 16-button keypad layout and form factor are ergonomically optimized for easier and highly intuitive access to critical gaming commands, improving your key activation accuracy while letting you game in comfort. And for those marathon fragging sessions, a soft-touch rubberized wrist pad cradles your palm and significantly reduces the hand fatigue and wrist strain so you can rain digital death on your opponents without pause or mercy.


Razer Nostromo’s 16 fully-programmable Hyperesponse™ gaming buttons and 8-way directional thumb pad are engineered for rapid key actuation and crisp response. A programmable 8-way directional thumb pad which you can use either for movement or modifier keys round off your instruments of mass destruction. In addition, you can switch instantly between 8 key-maps by assigning the different key-map toggles to any button on the keypad.


The Razer Nostromo’s all-new configurator software is as easy to use as it is deadly, allowing you to conveniently customize all the buttons with any game command or key binding to open up a massive repertoire of killer combinations right under your fingertips.

Will have to wait to see how this model is.

I have an old original N52 that has virtually no action left on it and a few buttons that don't work. When I was looking for a replacement I looked at the new model (n52te) and looked at the reviews and apparently the new edition was not particularly good, and the main culprit for the decrease in quality seemed to stem from the crappy quality of the new control software which Belkin had farmed out to another company, I believe Razor. There were also complaints about a change that had been made in the D-pad. IIRC the D-pad had had a big problem where the 4 chief directions worked fine but the 'corner' directions wouldn't respond properly.

We'll have to see if the numerous complaints from the online community were heeded and Razor improved the software and hardware.

P.S. I ended up buying a new-in-box original n52 off Ebay (was still actually cheaper than the original N52 I got from Best Buy) and it works great.
