Review on HyperX Alloy FPS RGB - Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with 🎮 Controlled Light & Macro Customization, Silver Speed Switches, and RGB LED Backlit by Christine Flores

Day 1 Review (will be updated in 6 months): Wow, this keyboard feels good. Storm Quickfire), great matte black finish and minimalist design. I have a problem: most keys have a metallic "ring" after they're quickly pressed and released (which is what you usually do when typing). Some are louder. key than others. I hope this goes away with time. Update 7 months later: It's holding up great. The metallic ringing issue I mentioned earlier is gone. However, I encountered another quirk: That's why I play Street Fighter 5 on this keyboard. In fighting games, clean input signals and freedom from interference are very important. I recently found I was losing games and suspected wrong inputs to be to blame. Of course, testing in practice mode shows that the keyboard sometimes resets input even if I hold down the key (an attack move requires you to hold down the directional key for 2 seconds before typing a command). In other words, there is jitter or noise in the signal so the computer registers that I released the key when in fact I didn't. It doesn't always happen, but I've noticed it. Unless you play games where clean signals are paramount, this probably isn't an issue. If you're a casual user looking for a minimalist keyboard, I still recommend it. 1 year update: still holding up great. However, the left arrow key's cap is cracked where the cap attaches to the mechanical switch (where the "+" shaped stem is inserted). As a result, the button wobbles a bit when pressed. This probably happened when I was pressing keys in Street Fighter, so it's probably not caused by normal usage.
