Looks good, BT doesn't work

Great keyboard when connected via cable. RGB lighting is awesome. Aluminum is good. The biggest downside (at least for me) is that the BT connection is absolutely terrible.

Oh you want a backlight, well there are plenty more offerings to choose from. Oh, you need discrete function keys and ten buttons, man, you're making it really hard, but Logitech and IQuinex make a nice board. Oh, you don't want to spend more than $200, Keychron makes a board that ranks very high on the ratings list, you can choose between Gateronโ€ฆ
