Review on HyperX Alloy Origins – Software-Controlled Light & Macro Customization, Compact Form Factor – Tactile HyperX Aqua Switch by Ada Strzelczyk ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the price and quality are acceptable.

Outcome: The keyboard is NOT worth the money, sorry. If you want to take it, take it with bonuses or with promotional codes, but I don’t advise it outright. Styles in this regard disappointed much more (I did not expect this). Klava is good, made with high quality, and then - time will tell. Maybe it justifies the price of 12K, if I can pass it on to my grandchildren) 4/5. If you evaluate it cleanly, and not for 5020, as I took it, then 3/5, therefore, for such money, complaints (as for me) should be at a minimum, at least in the configuration! A solid four, but honestly! And also sad that there is no palm rest in the kit. Hyper X. Where can I buy it, it is not available anywhere. Please tell me, or donate :). I repeat, but in the configuration for this money there should be at least spare keycaps!

Pros
  • 1) Assembly. There is really nothing to dig here. The metal “case”, everything looks cool, the twist test passes, not a single element staggers, does not creak. Before that, I took Steelseries Apex 5 2 times and got married 2 times. 2) Switches. I liked the blue ones more than the red ones. Pleasant click, you feel the move, pressing, very nice. Yes, they are noisy, but that's their buzz. In general, if you need silence - think before you buy this clave. 3) Backlight. She is really cool and very bright, which is a HUGE plus. It is better to always do it “quieter” than to squint trying to find a key. 4) Detachable Type C wire. It's really convenient and good. 5) The skeleton looks great here. Believe me, in life it is much more beautiful and juicier than in the photo, there is no comparison at all!
Cons
  • 1) Price. Guys, don't be serious. I took this clave for 5020, thanks to bonuses and a promotional code. For this price - it's gorgeous and it's hard to find fault, but realizing that it costs 12K (almost), then it's nonsense. Why such money? Yes, assembly, yes switches, but damn it . Anyway, VERY expensive. Definitely take it with bonuses, for 12K I don’t see the point in taking it, to be honest. I would give for this Claudia about 8-9 maximum! 2) Stubs. Yes, same gap. Does it interfere? No. Does it affect sound and performance? Not much, not at all, work comfortably. But this is certainly not what I would like to see in the clave for 12K. 3) The presence of multimedia keys (separate). For some, this is a plus, for someone a minus, but for that kind of money, it would be nice to see them separately (for me personally) 4) Complete set. 12K. In the package there is - Klava, 3 pieces of paper and a cord. ALL. It feels like even A4 Tech cares more about the customer than Hyper X. Guys, NOT SERIOUSLY! For this money there should be no nit-picking, well, at least for the kit! Fix it please! 5) Soft. Yes, he is still in Beta. Is it possible to work with him? Yes, you can, it's working. But! It is crooked, it happens that it just crashes after saving the presets. Fortunately, there is an internal memory of Claudia.
