Revainrating 1 out of 5

Welcome to mechanical keyboards!

That's tremendous value for what you're getting with this keyboard. Pros - Linearly adjustable switches - These are pretty much customizable Cherry switches with multiple Kingston settings - USB Type-C - All metal construction bottom and top - Nice bright RGB, super nice clicks - I knew they weren't quiet, didn't use them a Cherry keyboard switch. For me it's a pro because I want to hear those clicks. It is 2 height adjustable and the legs are very strong - there is no flex on this board. It can be used as a weapon lol. The price is very good for this entry level mechanical device and it is really much better than other brands. 100 Discover HyperX PBT keycaps in white or black. I chose black because they look awful without RGB, and the bottom is white to let them shine. - TKL (keyless) is great and now I'm buying it - I haven't had a problem according to others. I've tested this keyboard for the past week with frequent use and no duplicate registered keys. This could be a possible USB problem, a cable problem, or a motherboard problem and does not have to be a keyboard error. with this board super thin and cheap. If you've already invested that much, you can spend a little more and make this guy a little better with prettier and more functional keycaps. PBT double shots are thicker and have better curve, which helps me in gaming and typing. Overall I only had 2 cons in my rating. I don't think there is anything else with the same build quality and functionality at this price point. You can go cheaper but you get what you pay for. Good game!
