Good quality wireless mechanical keyboard rbg brown

*updated 12/01/2020* the keyboard still works well. I recently placed my Steam computer behind the TV and there seems to be some interference, but once I move the USB extension dongle so that it's in sight under the TV (the sofa is 8ft from the TV) , everything still works fine (see photo). The only thing I noticed after almost 2 years is that the built-in battery discharges a little more than before. However, I would give kb 4 stars. ===== I was afraid to pull the trigger on this purchase because it was half the price of big brands like Corsair and Logitech. these mk seem to be a trend among gamers these days. My experience with this Rk Brown for 1 month based on my old IBM Mk and my son's Corsair Strafe Cherry Red is that the tactile feel is just as good although the Strafe seems a bit more responsive compared to the wired Rk mode . The click buttons feel solid and don't sound too loud, nor does the overall solid feel of the kbd case material itself. wired vs wireless definitely impacts responsiveness when playing regular games like Borderlands, Hitman, and BioShock on NVIDIA Shield will. Cordless battery life is reasonably expected to be 1.5 weeks for several hours of gaming each evening before charging. kbd works well with the included 2.5GHz dongle for Win10, Android, and NVIDIA. The plus point is that RGB is highlighted well, which isn't usually found in wired and wireless kbds at the lower end of the range. The only thing that deducted 1 star for this kbd was that the wireless distance from the tv to my couch is about 10ft and annoying delays and long button presses (like ooooooooh) so I have to get closer to about 8ft as the printed manual is almost useless to those old eyes.

Pros
