Says it comes with a USB-C cable, not quite right.

I bought this to use with a Macbook Pro (USB-C) and it says it comes with a USB-C cable. This is technically correct, but the USB-C part connects to the keyboard and has a regular USB header on the side you want to connect to the computer.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Requires an outlet

FBI! This keyboard has a microphone under the spacebar

I know I'll be accused of spreading conspiracy theories, but if you're looking for a keyboard for work or at home, be careful as it has a microphone contains it. I've seen mention of a mic used to sync RGB to audio, but a nefarious hacker or a disgruntled employee could easily change the purpose of that mic to spying on people.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • I'll add later

Good keyboard at a great price

I've had 4 keyboards starting with the Razer Blackwidow Chroma, then the Corsair Strafe RGB, then the Logitech G Pro and now the GK61. After researching information on non-standard keyboards, I decided this would be a good starting point. This board is made using ePathBuy's GK61 PCB, which means you can customize it to your liking alongside the keycaps. For example I found another case for this board in which I will place this board. I have yet to try the hot-swap switch feature, but you can…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Some bugs

100% Suitable for Gaming Keyboards

Pros: Full RGB backlighting, Hot-swappable (Gateron optical switches only), Durable, Switches feel good, Cool lighting effects, Keycaps are made of ABS Plastic but very pleasant to the touch Touch, bright backlight, complete with keycap and switch pullers. Cons: wobbly (rubber pads misaligned, maybe just for my keyboard), weird RGB lights that flow into each other, don't think there are alternative cases, mic under the spacebar that you can't turn off, no adjustable feet. ----- I just got this…

  • Video Game
Cons
  • Legacy Model

Exactly what you get for the price.

I'll start this review by saying that I like this keyboard in general, this is my first mechanical keyboard and I'll be leaving it for a while. The fact is I've tried more high-end keyboards in stores and this isn't perfect. So it needs some tweaks to make it perfect. This depends on the typing and playing experience. The package includes a keyboard, a USB Type-C cable, a switch knob and a manual. Type-C cable is braided and good looking with gold ends, good for the price. The keyboard has a…

  • PC
Cons
  • Non-automatic

That's all you need. (Brown switch) (from a gamer's point of view)

Why I bought this keyboard: 1. I wanted to take up less desk space2. I like new technology and wanted optical switches3. The value proposition here was very intriguing. Potential Deal Breakers: 1. Lighting. If you're a crazy RGB freak, you probably don't need it for VERY picky reasons. The RGB used in this keyboard has two LEDs for each key. I have no idea why they thought it was a good idea or what they wanted, but the downside to this is that you can see both LEDs depending on what color the…

Pros
  • Gaming keyboards
Cons
  • Very expensive
