CIY X77 Hot-Swappable Mechanical Keyboard/RGB Gaming Keyboard/USB C/Anti Ghosting/N-Key Rollover/Compact Layout 87 Key/Detachable Magnetic Upper Cover/Wired Keyboard for Mac Windows

Good quality keyboard for the money. It is a little bit louder than my membrane keyboard, but it is not terribly loud. The magnetic cover is a nice touch that will make things easier to clean on the board as the board will eventually get dirty from hair, etc. You really have to push in hard the usb cable that attaches to the keyboard in order for it to connect. There are no default solid color settings, but there are 5 programmable slots that you could in theory use to make a solid color layout. The colors are most of the rainbow and the color white. Although they dont have a separate color for orange.. just a dark yellow. So you have 7 colors choices - Red, dark yellow, Green, cyan blue, indigo blue, magenta violet, and white. The white has a slight pinkish tint to it. All RGB keyboard that I try to use the white color setting either have a tint either towards cyan or to pink. And I think this is because it is difficult to combine the leds of the switches to produce a pure white color. If you want a white color, youre usually better off getting a keyboard that only displays a white led. The other weird issue is that when I try to program the setup to use only white color for every button, then scrlk, capslock and win keys turn dark on setting. It doesnt happen if I choose another solid color for the keyboard. Programming the button colors is tricky as well, as the button color sequence appears to be dependent on the last button color that you pushed and is not totally dependent on what the current color is of the current button you are pressing. Overall a good keyboard for the current price ($50). My perfect keyboard would be a low profile membrane keyboard waterproof with backlit white settings that was reliable with keys that dont fade due to wear and tenkeyless (most users dont use the right number pad). So far I have not found that keyboard, but have found keyboards that are close. Some logitech keyboards have come close, but they have some issues.

I have been pleasantly surprised by this inexpensive mechanical keyboard! Amazing features for the price and fully upgradable.

This is an amazing introduction to modifying and customizing a quality keyboard. Its easy and fun to play with the lighting, either for a special effect or to add clarity. There is a clicky aspect to the keys but this iss easily buffered by adding some foam. If youre like me and get tired of the standard black trim ring, this one is held on with magnets and is easily removable for customization, I like the consistency of the key switches. The included instruction pamphlet give clear instructions for some of the basic customizations. This is a quality keyboard with substance and Ive not found one with these features at this price point. One big issue as I write this review. Apparently CIY let their domain name expire so the driver download is not available from their website. Its for this reason Im only rating the keyboard at 4 stars. Ill revise the rating to five stars when they get this sorted out.

Ive only had this keyboard in my possession for a couple of days and Ive made the decision to return it. The reason why is that the USB C cable it ships with is the simple rubber coated kind, which my cat is inclined to chew on. I wanted to replace it with a slightly nicer braided cable but no other type C cable in my house will fit in to the narrow housing around the USB C port. Not even the simple Amazon-purchased Anker brand cable that I have several of. This is a deal breaker for me.

My husband got this, and my son liked it so much he got one, too. Great for gaming, or just for a beautiful addition to your computer.

Very solid board! Love thats its closer to an 80 %board. I recently got into 60 %and I think I like this one more. Overall very good and I recommend!

This is the Rolls-Royce of keyboard types with red key actuators and easily swappable key tops. You start with this keyboard and get a couple of the replaceable keytop selections to create your own custom keyboard. The quality mechanics are there, with exacting keystrokes, and RGB lighting, to give you the base to start. Mix and match the various color keytops to make yourself something special. If you tire of that look another set of keytops can be replaced as there are over 10 different selection available on Amazon. Make your own creation and have fun.

good

design is nice and basic, has 3 incline levels. board allows up to 5 pin switches (which arent really pins, but 2 pins with 3 plastic rods), and works perfectly. Swapped out for glorious pandas. this is what DIY keyboards SHOULD be priced at

Great quality keyboard for the price! Since it is a mechanical keyboard using it is louder than a normal keyboard. If you don’t mind the noise the keys are responsive and they give you replacements with a tool that makes it easy to switch! The RBG light is so cool and has many different looks to choose from!
