Review on HyperX Alloy Origins – Software-Controlled Light & Macro Customization, Compact Form Factor – Tactile HyperX Aqua Switch by Doyun Siu ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

Pros: + Very nice design. + Pleasant keystrokes. + Nice lighting. + The presence of a game mode (you can configure the disabling of keyboard shortcuts "Alt + Tab", "Alt + F4", "Shift + Tab", "Ctrl + Esc", the "Win" button is blocked at any setting). + Flexible backlight settings through the application. + 5 levels of backlight brightness (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%), adjustable by keyboard shortcut. In the application, the backlight settings are much wider, it can take a very long time to describe them all. Minus: - Disgusting keys with 2022 layout (I put them only 1 time and immediately replaced them with the original ones, I write blindly, since I can afford it). For the photo I put 3 2022 ones, they differ markedly from the rest of the keys in font and light transmission. Maybe for someone it will not matter, but it hurts my eyes. Not all keys have a 2022 version, for example, Tab, Caps, Shift, Ctrl are only original, that is, if you replace the keys with 2022 ones, then some of the keys will remain bright and beautiful, and some will be dull with a rather mediocre font design. This will be very eye catching. Please make sure your monitor is matte and not glossy before purchasing. Now it’s hard to find gloss even if you want to, but, nevertheless, it’s important to take into account that it will shine very strongly (this is already a problem of choosing a monitor, not a keyboard). P. On the first 2 photos, a comparison of the original buttons and buttons with Cyrillic in the kit (D, X and B are replaced) even in the photo you can see noticeable differences, not for the better.

Pros
  • + Appearance + Nice touch + Quality aircraft-grade aluminum body + Wide range of backlight settings +- Includes buttons with 2022 layout
Cons
  • - The disgusting quality of the buttons with the 2022 layout against the background of the original ones (the font is disgusting, the light transmission is worse, the buttons are noticeably dimmer, noticeable even in the first 2 photos below)

The keyboard, of course, is an overprice, but I liked it, if you take it for a promotion like me, for 9+ it's cool
