Great keyboard overall

In comparison, my last keyboard was a CORSAIR K70 RGB MK.2 RAPIDFIRE Low Profile. This Alloy Elite 2 feels very good in the hands. The keys wobble a bit, but are very smooth and firm. I wasn't expecting how good it feels, it's light on the fingertips and just awesome to type on. Again, I'm used to low-profile keys, which is a huge compliment from me. I knew these keys would be louder than I'm used to, but it's actually not that bad. I press the keys hard when typing, someone who types with more

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • No automatic

Great keyboard when it works

I wanted to love this keyboard. Actually I did. However, there was an ongoing issue with it that I think others should be aware of. If, like me, you hibernate your computer only to wake it up again after a while (no matter how much time has passed, the main thing is that the computer hibernates), you will encounter a problem when the keyboard is not responding. This happened every time I went back to my computer and woke it up from sleep. I tried googling and found that holding down the 3โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Solid build
Cons
  • Doubt

$130 cartharsis for accessories

So I bought this keyboard after playing games for about 30 years. I'm usually suspicious of expensive keyboards for a number of reasons. I usually prefer to buy cheap $20 keyboards because they might not be great, but they're easy to replace and well worth the money. (If the keyboard is $20 I'd be happy if it lasted 6 months to a year.) Now on to that complete piece of junk aka the HyperX Alloy Elite 2. DO NOT BUY THIS KEYBOARD. Most mechanical keyboards aren't worth the money as most of themโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great overall performance
Cons
  • Fair

Beautiful keyboard for every use

This is a great keyboard! At first glance, that didn't convince me at all. It was just different than other keyboards I've had, mostly because of the pudding keycaps that didn't exist before. but i started using it and researching day by day and i ended up really liking it. In fact, I already liked these caps! In addition to the included ABS keycaps, you can order an upgraded set of 104 PBT keycaps separately, which I will be ordering soon. Let's start with the RGB lighting, you have 5 levelsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Damaged

author choice. To me!

Before I explain this review, there is one important note to make first. I am disabled, in 2017 I had to retire at the age of 40. Lucky for me I was able to do it. One of my main concerns is swelling, and yes, in my hands. So I was retired and couldn't do a lot of things I liked. So I decided that I would start writing again for my creative outlet. This started my long search for the right keyboard. Now for the review. I've searched and spent too much money looking for the right keyboard forโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Can I add something?
