Review on XPG Summoner Cherry MX Red Gaming Keyboard by Mateusz Jamroz ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I didn't expect the quality to be so high.

The keyboard is fantastic and well worth the money (not the 12-13k ones, but the 7-9k ones). The image exemplifies the wide range of color customization available in the program (in general, you can customize the color of each key) Pros: The simplicity of typing in Klava is fantastic (quick response, sometimes even so fast that hands type faster than brains think and unfinished words are obtained, so you need to think about it when typing) I can always count on getting a good buzz with the wrist rest. The keyboard's rubbery feet prevent it from sliding around too much while it's set up. The metal skin is incredibly well-made; its smooth texture and inconspicuous appearance make it a perfect complement to the rest of the keyboard. There is configuration software with macros and backlit keys. There's a volume knob (though I don't use it because I have an external DAC), which may be helpful to some. You can also choose from a variety of customizable illumination profiles outside of the app. Cons: Little resistance while pressing the mute/unmute button (the key goes in different directions and it would be more convenient if it just went up and down) Little folds of leatherette can be seen at the stand's base, which is a minor flaw. There are also software issues, like you need to log into the program every time after rebooting in order to use your own lighting profile (and this needs to be logged in every time) The final drawback, though minor, is that the calculator cannot be accessed by pressing fn plus a key on the F-line. There was such a function in Chinese for 2k with outem keys.
