Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

I always associated Lenovo with something budget and secondary, both in terms of design and quality. The PR department of the company is clearly underdeveloped. But here, even despite the fact that there were no reviews on this product at all and there were almost no reviews, I decided to take a chance and did not regret it. Is it worth the money - so far I think that more than. Anyway, time will tell)

Pros

My first experience with a mechanical keyboard, before that I used only cheap membrane keyboards (until 2022) 1. Design is something! When you look at it, it seems that in front of you is an expensive car like Tesla - complete minimalism like Apple. Due to the color it seems that the case is made of metal, although it is plastic. When I was looking, I compared it with more expensive models, but the more expensive the model, the more it smells like China. Always came back to this one. 2. VERY heavy compared to those that I had. Put on special rug - as glued. 3. The case does not bend and does not crunch - probably thick plastic. 4. The keys almost do not play, they work somewhere in 1/3 of pressing - unusually, but the typing speed has increased (blind typing) Long Shift (both) is a plus! 5. The backlight can be customized to any color and 2 brightness modes. 6. The brush stand is ribbed - hands do not hang and do not stick

Cons

1. There are no usb ports - I would like at least one on the sides like on a laptop (on the left, I'm left-handed) The thickness and weight of the case clearly allow. The main thing is that the flash drives can be removed easily, without holding the case. Lenovo - give the task to engineers and patent) 2. The backlight changes only through the application - not critical, but a minus. You can replace one Win key with Fn or add to additional. panel. 3. Additional keys without backlight. 4. The keyboard is wired, it is clear that because of the backlight, although the point is in wireless, if there are laptops? 5. The keys are pressed too softly, a feature of the mechanism, you need to get used to it after the membrane.
