> 3 dayYou really cant go wrong here. I would say this is the best 60% production board on the market for around $100-$130 (depending on your switch choice). Seriously fantastic build quality, lubed stabilizers, plenty of switch options, and an excellent compiler software for re-mapping keys and playing with RGB. The tap function will make your forget about needing dedicated arrow keys forever. The Venus oozes quality with double-shot PBT shinethru keycaps and a cast aluminum chassis. My only gripe with this board is the spacebar seems to have a minor defect. The stabilizers on one side are a slightly uneven height that creates some pre-travel and wobble on the key, but this is a tiny grievance in consideration of all the good things about this product. Would definitely recommend.

24-11-2024Material and build quality are good, LEDs are bright, keyboard customization is no problem. All seems good value for the price, but right around 2 month mark, the random freezing issue started kicking in, and has only been getting more frequent, up to twice a day now (It actually froze right in the middle of me writing an email to HK Gaming about this issue, but I suspect that their warranty on their product is non-exist). So... Look elsewhere if you want to have a reliable, solid, premium mechanical keyboard, or anything thats worth your money. Shouldnt have trusted youtube reviews of this brand. Those tech reviewers never hold on to a product for more than a month anyway. But for us consumers, over $100 for a keyboard thats only good for 2 months? Thats like getting a new RTX 3080 graphic card every year! Just stay away from this keyboard for good.

> 3 dayThis keyboard is really solid! I got they yellow switches and they sound and feel good. The only complaint i have is that randomly (but not often) it will stop working and would require and disconnect and reconnect. This can get frustrating at an intense game.

> 3 daySwitched from a full size keyboard and man is this thing so small! Feels great to game on and being aluminium it feels sturdy. Kinda wish the key caps were aluminium too but for oh well. Definitely would recommend to anyone wanting a smaller keyboard.

> 3 dayIt 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.

> 3 dayI heard about the freezing issue which made me skeptical about the keyboard but after a few weeks of using it I have not noticed it at all. I was prepared to deal with the freezing issue as Ive seen switching profiles being the fastest way to clear the stuck keyboard. The keyboard has so far been amazing to use and has an amazing feel. Lubricated stabilizers, aluminum case, bright rgb. The overall quality of the keyboard far outweigh the freezing issue as it can be fixed with a quick profile switch. Ill update if freezing issue occurs. UPDATE: I experienced my a key that froze and kept repeating as if I was holding it down. This is the first experience in a month of heavy use of the keyboard and switching to profile 2 fixed the stuck key very quickly. It is an inconvenience especially on a more expensive keyboard, but I still dont believe it to be a dealbreaker.
