Matches the description completely, very satisfied.

I always associated Lenovo with something budget and secondary, both in terms of design and quality. The PR department of the company is clearly underdeveloped. But here, even despite the fact that there were no reviews on this product at all and there were almost no reviews, I decided to take a chance and did not regret it. Is it worth the money - so far I think that more than. Anyway, time will tell)

Pros
  • My first experience with a mechanical keyboard, before that I used only cheap membrane keyboards (until 2022) 1. Design is something! When you look at it, it seems that in front of you is an expensive car like Tesla - complete minimalism like Apple. Due to the color it seems that the case is made of metal, although it is plastic. When I was looking, I compared it with more expensive models, but the more expensive the model, the more it smells like China. Always came back to this one. 2. VERY heavy compared to those that I had. Put on special rug - as glued. 3. The case does not bend and does not crunch - probably thick plastic. 4. The keys almost do not play, they work somewhere in 1/3 of pressing - unusually, but the typing speed has increased (blind typing) Long Shift (both) is a plus! 5. The backlight can be customized to any color and 2 brightness modes. 6. The brush stand is ribbed - hands do not hang and do not stick
Cons
  • 1. There are no usb ports - I would like at least one on the sides like on a laptop (on the left, I'm left-handed) The thickness and weight of the case clearly allow. The main thing is that the flash drives can be removed easily, without holding the case. Lenovo - give the task to engineers and patent) 2. The backlight changes only through the application - not critical, but a minus. You can replace one Win key with Fn or add to additional. panel. 3. Additional keys without backlight. 4. The keyboard is wired, it is clear that because of the backlight, although the point is in wireless, if there are laptops? 5. The keys are pressed too softly, a feature of the mechanism, you need to get used to it after the membrane.

Full compliance with the manufacturers assurances, high quality.

This is the best and quietest red switch keyboard for the money. Although they are not cherry, it is not possible to tell them apart. The assembly is very solid, it weighs about 1.3kg, more than a conventional mechanic. Nothing backlash, no creaks. The design is strict and neat, the fonts are beautiful, there are no unnecessary inscriptions on the buttons. Very nice keyboard. I installed transparent o-rings 1.5mm on all keycaps, now it has become even quieter. I am very glad. I am sure that…

Pros
  • Red linear switches (very similar to Cherry MX Red, there is a Funс keyboard nearby, they are one to one, but this is Kailh Long Hua). Thick keycaps (which can be replaced with any universal ones from cherry). Quiet. Good RGB lighting. If you replace the keycaps with opaque Double-shot PBT, the backlight will still be visible on the substrate. Detachable wrist rest. All keys, including the space bar, sound good, there are no stabilizer bounces. Macros.
Cons
  • 3 levels of backlight brightness (off, 50% and 100%). You cannot select a static color for different keys. Either a wave (or other effects), or one color is static. One-story enter. The wire is not black, but braided in a blue checker, it does not look very good. : When the alt + tab key combination is enabled in the software, if you hold ALT for a long time, a software bug occurs and other keys, such as AWSD, are randomly blocked. Disabled the function and everything is fine. The software is of course the same, almost stupid.

I did not regret the purchase, everything is fine.

Took mainly for work. Printing is a pleasure. Backlight modes are essentially not needed - just play around once after purchase. I use static for work and "surfing" in the evening. In the photo, the keyboard seems bulky due to the stand. I was afraid that it would take up a lot of space on the table, but in fact I use it with a stand and do not complain.

Pros
  • - Classic full size layout. - Quiet switches. No click. There is a clicking sound compared to membrane keyboards, but it is not annoying, rather it is even pleasant. - Additional keys without Fn. It is convenient to press with one hand without looking. - Heavy duty with comfortable feet. Doesn't slip on the table. - Nice palm rest. - Good build quality.
Cons
  • - The weak highlighting of Cyrillic characters was the most disappointing. - There is a jamb with an engraving on one of the buttons: on the button to the left of the right shift there are only characters for the Cyrillic layout, and for the English layout "?" and "/" are lost. - Inconvenient application. You can't change the color for each key. - You can not switch glow modes from the keyboard. Only through the app. Only the brightness of the backlight can be adjusted from the keyboard.
