Great modding platform, beginner friendly

Highly recommended as a modding platform for beginners in the world of mechanical keyboards! Superior quality, standard keycaps, durability, and built-in features. (Note: I don't use Bluetooth, I used a wired connection and most of the negative reviews on this please read on, otherwise this is my personal review as a gamer, streamer and keyboard enthusiast.) First it came for a day, which a lot was impressive. When I opened the package, I saw a very good keyboard and a thick, breaded cable. It's a plastic case, but to my surprise it has absolutely no deck flex and feels very heavy, which in my experience was due to the nice thick metal plate on the hot-swappable circuit board. d, with curved edges for perfect typing. The key switches are exposed and there is a noticeable gap between the case and the key switches. It has a spacious layout where the F() keys are spaced apart and the arrow keys are slightly removed along with the multimedia keys. It has different modes like Windows or Mac and Bluetooth or Wired, which is useful for customizing your experience, and the keyboard works on both platforms {I tested}. While most of my keyboards don't have RGB, I really like the white light coming through the keyswitches and between the keys because it really makes the keycap set I bought specifically for this keyboard stand out (in the pictures) - RGB has slightly different modes {which are very unique, some of them are: Breath, Wave, Key by Key, etc.} But the best feature in my opinion is its full customizability: as I said, it's great for testing new switches and it's equipped with a high-quality hot-swappable circuit board that I've installed and removed with no problems. The switch sets The fact that you can see which switches you currently own is a great thing not only for collectors, but also for exhibitors and testers. I plan to use this keyboard for testing keycap sets and keyswitchesโ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”Overall very good and comparable to brands on Revain like Akko which I also use have recommended, good luck-romu567
