Durgod HK Venus RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard | 60% Layout | USB C Wired | Doubleshot PBT Keycaps | Cherry Profile | NKRO Rollover | Windows & Mac | Aluminium Chassis| Gateron Black, Black

Let me preface this with a few things. I originally bought an Anne Pro 2 which comes to find out later doesnt work well with a PS4. It just turned itself off about once or twice, every single game. So, returned that to buy this after a bit more research. This keyboard is absolutely perfect. Got mine with Cherry browns and use it to play Warzone on PS4. Highly recommend.

It was great for the first month, then one day the keyboard shut off and did not respond with the software. Software is so bad and confusing too. If you are intrested in buying this keyboard go durgods discord, all you see is complaints and how the product is bad. Dont recommend you buy one.

The Gateron silent brown version of the keyboard is probably the most quiet non custom keyboard you can buy on the market and imo having a quiet keyboard is super important. Most keyboard manufacturers seem to think that people invest in premium audio equipment and headphones so you can drown it all out in keyboard clicking. You can get even more quiet with zilents, lubing each switch instead of just the stabilizers, and making a ton of other mods but you would have to do that yourself and that would probably increase the price towards the $300 range so for slightly over $100 these are a steal. My only gripes with this keyboard is that the software isnt intuitive and you have to use a ton of modifiers to use some of the keys since its a 60% keyboard so keep track of how often you use the keys it doesnt have before you buy (unfortunately their other keyboards either dont have gateron silent browns or dont have double shot keycaps) but otherwise this is a great keyboard.

Me gusta mucho como se ve y parece ser de buena calidad, lo compre por que se supone que es un teclado más duradero que uno normal, a los meses de tenerlo se veia diferente la luz de la tecla x, luego se arruinó la luz de una toda esa fila de teclas, quedando la x siempre en otro tono. Al configurar el color esa fila siempre queda de un color distinto al que le programe. Ahora con casi 2 años también se arruinó la tecla Ctrl del lado inferior derecho, no funciona al presionarla y me dicen que está quemada la placa, siempre he utilizado protector de voltaje. No sé de qué forma recuperar mi teclado o si es posible, es lamentable la mala calidad del producto.

everything about this keyboard just feels right. will follow up on this later on. but as of now. Get your hands on one of these !!

This keyboard has a defect and is not worth the money it costs. It freezes up while in use. There is a workaround but the freezing gets worse over time. If you contact the company, they say they will ship you a cord that will fix the issue. For us, the shipping time was almost 6 weeks and that put us outside the time limit to return for a refund. The new cord did not work and the freezing continued. As of yesterday, it froze completely and would only work after reloading the (beta) mapping software that maps the keys. The company will not allow a refund at this time. Look for a different keyboard from a different brand.

Best 60% keyboard Ive had. It has great rgb and the aluminum case/pbt keys feels amazing. Was very impressed with the overall quality and shipping was very fast. 10/10 would recommend getting.

I just dont have the time or patience for full custom keyboards. This one gets the job done with panache, with its aluminum body and bevy of switch options. The Kaihl Box Jade switches are BEEFY and clicky. Way more force needed compared to Cherry MX Blues. But the sound is more pleasing to me with the Kaihl. The quality of construction is great. Its well-built, solid, and the customization software isnt total garbage. It is a little pricey, but then so is the Ducky Mecha Mini. And this thing is much more readily available. I have a Ducky One 2 TKL, and the build quality of the Durgod is probably better (chassis doesnt flex like the Ducky plastic chassis does). If this were $110-$120, it would be a home run. But I see its already gone up $10 in price since I bought it six weeks ago :/ 10-month update: Ive had zero issues with this little tank of a keyboard. Ive not had any issues with the customization software, and have had no issues with freezing or repeating characters on my unit. The switches are just as they were the day I received it, and the board/case has no issues with flex or creaking. Im really happy with my unit, and just purchased another (this time with the Cherry MX Silent Red switches to contrast from the Kaihl Box Jades).

I had some concerns due to so many reviews that Ive seen regarding issues with freezing and all sorts of other problems. But so many of those things just went out the window as soon as I started using the keyboard and felt it in hand and typing. The quality is so much better than what I had expected. The build of the frame, the sound signature, the feel of the keycaps. All so much better than what I have experienced before. I have been long time user of other main stream brands like Razer and Corsair, and no knocks on those boards, they served me well but the experience with this has been a step above. One of the main standouts is the stabilizers. Man I was so used to rattling stabilizers that I thought it was normal. What a breath of fresh air man. My gaming experience is so much more improved since it takes up so much less space on my desk, so I can move my mouse around without hitting the keyboard every now and then as I used to. But of course this isnt ideal for my day to day use which is programming. I have actually made the effort to get used to using the board though just because of how nice it is. I do plan on purchasing a TKL from Durgod (the K320 Corona) based on my experience with the Venus, to use as my daily driver for work purposes and then use the Venus just for gaming. That does seem excessive when i think about it and almost a waste of the Venus but alas, some things are just easier with dedicated keys. I will HIGHLY recommend this little board and NO I havent experienced any of the freezing issues that other users have noted in their reviews and I hope I dont in the coming months ahead. Oh and the silent switches are awesome.

It was a great keyboard when it was still alive. Unfortunately, it did not last long. I usually plug it into an Xbox One S and it worked great. The Cherry Mx Red switches were smooth and the RGB was really nice and bright. WHEN I PLUGGED IT IN ON A PC IT LITERALLY DID NOT REGISTER ANYTHING I TYPED. After that incident I found out that it would not register anything on my xbox. I plugged it into a phone and it would not register there. So plugging it in to a PC literally killed it. I did the exact same test with a different keyboard and nothing happened. So I give this 2 stars because it was great while it lasted.
