Review on Alienware AW510K Low-Profile RGB Gaming Keyboard: Alienfx Per-Key RGB LED ๐Ÿ‘ฝ - Media Controls & USB Passthrough - Cherry MX Low Profile Red Switches by Tim Harris

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Super Sensitivity in PC

PRO: I recently bought an Alienware computer and thought this keyboard would complete the set because it says Alienware at the bottom next to the space bar and it has an RGB backlight. Who doesn't love RGB? The sound scroll volume on the side is amazing too, I can watch a show or listen to music and just slide the scroll button down to turn the volume down. In addition, you can use keyboard shortcuts to pause and skip to the next song in Spotify. CONS: Let me tell you if you are a gamer DO NOT buy this keyboard or if you need to type a lot at work or school. The keys are very sensitive. While playing Call of Duty my fingers are on WASD and tactical (grenade/flash grenade) on QE, my finger on W barely touches the QE buttons and presses them automatically, forcing me to throw tactical ones. Also, I'm typing this review on this keyboard right now, my fingers are touching the key next to the letter I'm pressing, resulting in typos making sentences look like this (this is my regview for this keyboard, these are the mistakes it makes without clearing the error.) I went to a gaming event in my town and the keyboards they had were 100% better than this one, the keys actually had to be pressed for it to register instead of breathing like that. Again, I 100% recommend it if you only want this for looks but if you play or type a lot at work or school. Go ahead and get another keyboard or you will end up with all the typos or errors in games due to sensitive keys.

Pros
  • Excellent Overall Performance
Cons
  • Protection
