Great Keyboard 60%: Gaming Keyboards

Pros: - Comes with two PBT keycaps - Amazing stabilizers for the spacebar and modifier keys - Bluetooth capabilities - Arrow key functionality - Includes extra colored keycaps and a wired keycap remover - Pretty easy to use, additional software - 2 layers FN - Robust construction - Full RGB backlighting - USB Type-C to A connection Cons: - Not the brightest RGB - Cannot overlay reactive light effects on top of another effect (eg .pulse over rainbow) - FN input functions are hard to see on the black version. Thoughts: This is the best 60% out of the box keyboard I've tried. I've used brands like Ducky, Razer, Logitech, Steelseries, Varmilo, Epomaker, and HyperX, but this is the one I prefer sitting on my desk. First, it's quite difficult to find a keyboard brand that takes the time to make gimbals feel and sound great right out of the box. They feel dirty and possibly wet, resulting in a really nice feel with no rattling or soft squeezing. Very happy with it. The choice of Gateron and Kailh switches is very good as Cherry no longer suits me. They feel prickly, stiff and generally uncomfortable compared to the red Gaterons I chose. Additional software allows you to remap FN keys and layers just about anything you need. Although I haven't used the board in Bluetooth this is a nice addition. I might pair it with my phone or something later. I appreciate that it comes with double PBT caps. A feature that doesn't let you create shiny keys is always welcome. Conclusion: Overall a really good 60% keyboard. You will hardly find anything much better. It's a pleasure to type on and fantastic to play on. My only complaint is that the RGB could have been brighter (although that could be due to the keycaps), I want to layer a reactive RGB effect over another animated effect, and I want them to match the brighter FN Legends. I have to tilt the board to see what's on the FN layer. Those little things aside, I would highly recommend this keyboard to anyone looking for a good 60%.
