Pretty solid construction for accessories

Generally pretty good for the price. The magnetic wrist rest is a nice touch. The coating makes it easy to show fingerprints, but other than that the build is pretty solid.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Hard to say

We could not connect it to the PC.

He couldn't connect it. It didn't work properly, so we're sending it back. Just dropped it off at the UPS store on Thursday March 18th.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Modern

It's awful when you have nails

Maybe a decent product for male gamers but it's awful for us girls with nails. My nails kept getting caught on the keys, which were VERY high up. uncomfortable placement. Super inconvenient to use.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Not as good as it says

Worth it in the accessories section

I really like this keyboard. I particularly wanted one that wasn't Bluetooth, tethered to a power source, and also had a numeric keypad. It meets all my needs while giving me the physical feel of a keyboard, which I prefer.

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • No paint required

Nice, quiet and soft to the touch

Disappointed, I love the steel series but after just a week of use the F button stopped working completely. Couldn't fix it either. I still give 3 stars because there are flaws. And it really is a beautiful keyboard. One thing to note before buying is that the lights will shine through the material making them appear dim. I actually liked how they ended up looking, but some people might not like it.

Pros
  • Suitable for many
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not for everyone, but still a great product

First of all, the keyboard is very solid despite the plastic housing. The keyboard will give a bit under heavy pressure, but don't expect it to take enough force to flex the keyboard in normal use. The Apex also comes with easy-to-use lighting software, and the buttons are subtly backlit. Because there are no blue switches on the keyboard, keystrokes aren't as comfortable as on a mechanical keyboard; However, the membrane design allows for decent keystrokes while remaining relatively quietโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands-free mode
Cons
  • Very expensive

2 ordered, one was DOA

Pros: Fairly quiet compared to typical mechanical keyboards, comfortable to type on, RGB brightness is easy to adjust, and built-in RGB patterns are nice. Cons: 1 of the two purchased was dead, half the keys didn't work, the RGB patterns are fixed, you can't program them, no individual key lighting, the key height is a little high but it's still pretty responsive. Final Opinion: This is a decent budget gaming keyboard if you have a working one. For some reason Revain won't let you order moreโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure

Refurbished keyboard didn't work

The keyboard looks and works well, I would love it if half the keys didn't work. I bought this item as a repair, the fact that it doesn't work is not SteelSeries' fault at all. They make great products and I have loved every single one of them that I have purchased. Learn from my mistake and don't buy as a repair. At this point you're not saving any money, just playing with it to see if the lousy Revain repair department steals your money or not. Spending just a few bucks more on a brand newโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • I doubt it
