Quality feel, nice lighting, quiet click
Addressing a point some reviews make; this keyboard is NOT loud. I think it’s quiet. Put it this way, the rattle from the keys is what’s loudest, not the click of the blue switches (turn the sound up and apologies for the distant chainsaw sound, but at least you can hear some birds as well). I switch over to my other (red switch) keyboard at the end for comparison. The click of the blue switches is negligible. Maybe high end keyboards would rattle less (with any colour switch), or maybe that’s just my heavy fingers. If anything, perhaps as I get used to the feedback from the click, I’ll learn to be a little less heavy on the keys. The (surround) lighting bar is a nice addition compared to my other (red switch) keyboard. The keys are a very pleasant matt that gives a quality feel. The rubber tips of the stands are nice and grippy. The keyboard lays flat and steady on my desk. Upshot: at this price point, this feels quality and the click from the blue switches is very quiet. If you don’t like the general noise from the keys then going for a red switch won’t help you (maybe a very expensive keyboard might be free of key rattle noise, but I don’t know, I think that might just be inevitable from any mechanically activated key?)

Fantastic mechanical keyboard but blue switches too loud for me
Purchased this keyboard as I wanted a sturdier and more durable unit compared to the standard variety. Item came in full retail packing and was well presented. The keyboard itself was heavy and has a great build quality. Keys have a lovely matt finish, are at the perfect height and very comfortable to use.The top of the unit, under the keys, has a metal covering and the complete unit had a look and feel far exceeding its price tag.However, from the first key press I noticed the excessive key click. This audible feedback, for me, was far to noticeable and distracting. Sharing a room, whilst home working, meant it was impractical to use this whilst working so close to someone else â I think a previous reviewer also commented on this.This was my first mechanical keyboard and I thought I had checked out the various properties associated with each key colour option i.e red, brown, blue switches etc but guess I should have opted for red switches rather than blue ones. Aside from the audible clicks this keyboard is perfect. I was going to give this 4 stars, owing to the excessive audible key clicks, but feel I canât mark down a product where it meets specification but not my preference so I must give it 5 stars.If anyone is looking to buy this, I would advise them to research the complete range of switches as having returned this, and purchased a red switch variant, I am now completely happy with my choice.

The best keyboard I’ve ever used
Firstly, I just want to say that I’m writing this review after using the keyboard for only a few hours, so I can’t comment on the long-term reliability at all at this point. However, what I will say, based on my usage so far, is this…This is the best keyboard I’ve ever used. I began my software development career in the 1980s when the very highly regarded “IBM model M” buckling spring keyboards where pretty standard items. I would say the feel and action of this keyboard is definitely comparable. It’s satisfyingly clunky to type on — every keypress is positively affirmed by feel and by sound, just like the old model M. But in addition to the great, positive, key action, you also get a wide choice of of LED lighting — a configurable background colour (or one of several effects) for the background/border LEDs and various configurable colours and effects for the individual keys. I’ve settled on a turquoise colour with a relatively low brightness for everything, but there are all sorts of garish options available too. You can configure different colours for each keytop for use with different pieces of software. All of that is configurable using the Function key on the keyboard itself with no additional software required. Or you can switch the LEDs off with Fn+Esc if you prefer.The keyboard works perfectly under Linux too. All the function keys for volume control, media playback/pausing, etc. all seem to work fine on my Ubuntu 20.04 installation. No additional software needed.Obviously, time will tell how robust it turns out to be. But so far, it feels reassuringly solid. The (aluminium, I think?) baseplate is sturdy and it has feet at the back to set it to a decent operating angle.I see a few people complaining about the “noise”. Well, it’s a proper mechanical keyboard, the clunking, as far as I’m concerned, is a definite plus point and it is nowhere near as loud as the old model m. Although it does kind-of bring back wonderful memories of being in a room full of coders all clanking away on their keyboards simultaneously.If you want a silent keyboard for typing on while your partner sleeps or watches TV or something, then this is not the keyboard for you. If you want the best typing experience, and plan to operate and enjoy the keyboard in room on your own, then you’ll struggle to find better I think.

Almost perfect (so far)
This keyboard is simply great. Coming from another quite cheap yet brilliant mechanical keyboard – this one is solid on every aspect. The blue switches are are clicky and responsive as expected and the feedback is great. I like the finish/coatig of the keys as well. Feels nice and looks bit more premium.The aluminium base is simple, flat and again contributes to the premium feel.You can change the RGB as you like.. the options are endless and for you can do a lot of that without even using the software. You can also tweak the brightness of the light, too.To have a static, single colour on the keys you will need the software, though. As for the RGB strip around. It can only be tweaked via the keyboard itself. For whatever reason not via the app.The one little thing that bothered me, and the reason why I didn’t give it 5stars, is because of the fixed wire in the middle of the keyboard. It would have been nice to have the option to channel it left or right under the keyboard for the perfect fit.My old 4-year-old, 30£ keyboard had this little feature and it was amazing. But that’s something not everyone would care about.Overall a great keyboard, but let’s see how it holds up with time.Cheers.

J’avais besoin de changer de clavier car celui que j’avais (mécanique blue switch) faisait beaucoup de trop de bruit ce qui dérangeait la nuit. J’ai donc opté pour celui-ci (version red switch) car pas chère et a l’air de proposé énormément de bonne qualité pour son prix.Points fort:-Touche agréable et bruit moins énervant qu’un blue switch-rgb vraiment très lumineux j’aime beaucoup la bande qui fait le contour du clavier-châssis en aluminiumPoint faible:-câble non tressé, ça aurait pu éviter qui s’abîme sur le long terme, à voir-logiciel compliqué à trouvé pas de lien de téléchargement dans la boîteSi vous cherchez un bon clavier gamer avec le meilleur rapport qualité-prix vous êtes servis!

My favourite keyboard! I love how clicky it is, my co-workers comment on the lights, and it just makes my work desk a lot brighter and more cheerful. It also has the number keys on the side, which is harder to find on the gaming keyboards that I like. Going to buy a second one for home soon. Definitely recommend, 11/10.

Vengo de un teclado mecánico Razer, de switch azul que aunque tiene 12 años sigue funcionando como el primer dÃa, pero lo querÃa cambiar porque tiene distribución de teclas USA y es algo incómodo que las teclas no coincidan con los sÃmbolos.Me decidà por este por el precio y las buenas reseñas, 42 euros el prime day y pensando que si era un desastre de teclado podrÃa devolverlo o como mal mayor tenerlo de segundo teclado.Al final me ha gustado y no es tan diferente al Razer que me costó mucho, mucho más que este.Los switches azules son un poco más ruidosos que los de Razer, eso no me lo esperaba, aunque con unos dÃas de uso parece que se ha atenuado un poco o yo me he acostumbrado. De cualquier modo, son cómodos y precisos, estoy contento con ellos, y más teniendo en cuenta lo que ha costado.El teclado pesa sobre un kilo, más o menos lo que cualquier teclado de este tipo, las teclas son flotantes, lo que se agradece por limpieza, y el teclado está acabado en aluminio, buen detalle, aunque por debajo es plástico aunque parece resistente. Las dos patas inferiores hacen bien su función.La iluminación es buena, ni espectacular ni desastrosa cumple de manera solvente, tiene varios efectos, aunque yo no uso ninguno me gusta la iluminación para momentos puntuales mientras trabajo y hay poca luz. El software es justitito pero permite personalizar la iluminación. Importante que sl apagar el ordenador y volver a encender memoriza el estado anterior y no hay que volver a abrir el programa. También tiene iluminación lateral, que se puede desconectar de manera individual de las teclas.En fin, que si dura como promete parece una buena compra, teniendo en cuenta la diferencia de precio con otras marcas y que a penas se nota diferencia a la hora de usarlo, salvo en el poco más de ruido, aunque esta la opciónde switch rojo (me hubieragustsdo el marrón), y llevo 15 años usando teclados mecánicos para trabajar, eso sÃ, no los uso para jugar, asà que en ese campo no puedo dar mi opinión.Quizá la única pega es que no tiene un puerto usb como otros y tampoco una rueda de volumen, aunque poco más se puede pedir a un teclado de 42 euros en oferta y unos 56 de precio normal.

Lo unico que lamento un poco es que el viaje es algo largo y al ser interruptores azules son perma clicky aunque de funcionameinto perfecto tiene buenas combinaciones y los efectos del marco de colores le dan un plus excelente … pase de un logitech G213 a este definitivamente mejor eleccion que un Eyooso que era mi primera opcion si consideran uno como ese … por mucho elijan este
