FIRSTBLOOD ONLY GAME. AK510 Retro Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - PBT SP Spherical Keycaps - Classic Grey-White Matching - RGB Backlight - Black Switches

The package arrived very fast considering the distance. The shipping is a little expensive but it is what it is considering my location. About the keyboard it is my first mechanical, but I knew what I wanted, the blue switches dont disappoint. The construction of the keyboard is solid, very solid, the clicks are consistent, it comes with 3 red extra keycaps: ESC, SPACEBAR and ENTER. The RGB fuction is super cool, a lot of options, but you have to fin the AJAZZ (manufacturer) AK510 (model) software.

The Ajazz AK510 is simply a superb keyboard all around. Some things that stand out to me: DESIGN - The retro grayscale look of this keyboard is really easy on the eyes and brings me back to the days of DOS gaming in the early 90s. The keys themselves are very tall and feel good to press. Each key feels slightly wobbly in place, but for me that isnt an issue and doesnt get in the way of the satisfying tactile feel of typing, but worth noting in case thats a problem for other people. It also comes with an orange version of the ESC, ENTER & SPACE keys, along with a key removing tool. I personally like the full grayscale look, but the option to put in some orange keys is nice. HEFT - This keyboard is much heavier than I thought it would be, and I love it. It feels solidly built and wont slide around on your desk. As with most keyboard, it has 2 foldable flaps on the back you can use to angle the keyboard up more. SOUND - I originally got the model with the Blue switches, and it was very very loud and clicky. I actually really liked the way it sounded and was super satisfying to type on, but I was worried about it being so loud that it would bother my wife in the other room or even my neighbors. I eventually returned it and swapped it out for the quieter Brown switch model, which is a perfect compromise of still providing a tactile feedback without the extra click you get from the Blue switches. COLORS - I bought the keyboard mostly for the retro grayscale look, but I was pleasantly surprised how fantastic the RGB color options are. Maybe its something about the fact that its a grey keyboard and not dark black, but the colors are super bright and vibrant and really amazing looking. There are 10 or so different preset modes, and you can tweak the speed & brightness to fit your needs. There are also 5 completely customizable gaming slots you can use to customize the RGB layout for different games. You can also opt to not use any RGB colors at all, but in my opinion this keyboard really shines with color options enabled. FINAL THOUGHTS - I dont usually write product reviews, but Ive been so fired up about this thing in the week since I got it that I just had to share my thoughts on it. If you like the look of this keyboard, you cant go wrong with this thing. Just make sure to look into the difference between the Blue Switch (LOUD) and Brown Switch (quieter) version because they are significantly different. The RGB color modes are amazing looking and Im actually excited to type on this thing any chance I get. Maybe I need to become a writer...

Being an instant draw with the design of the keyboard itself, the keyboard has been such a great addition to my desk. Feels great, the colors/ color settings are vibrant and standout pretty well. The mix of old school tech design with the touch of modern gaming keyboards provide an overall great piece of product.

This has to be the quirkiest keyboard out there, and will definitely bring back a nostalgic feeling without missing on the features. Pros: - Good tactility, very clicky (Cherry MX Blue switches) - Sturdy base, heavy overall weight - Also has side lights that will glow if you want - Comes with 3 extra orange keycaps (ESC, Enter, and Space) Mixd: - RGB is hardware integrated, no software needed, but cycling all modes will gets kind of annoying - The cable is off center to the right at the numpad and is an off-white classic color, this may clash with some set-ups - Two keys were sticky out of the box, but a few weeks of use reduced this effect (LCtrl, Grave) Cons: - No rubber layer under the keycaps, be careful not to spill anything on it! - Slight ting sound coming from the baseplate on every key press

Absolutely love the blue, got it for a cinnamoroll desktop build and it looks amazing. Great durability and I like that the volume can be adjusted with the turner in case I have the volume too loud and have to scramble to fix it. I love that this key board has a number pad even if it takes up more space. 10/10 would buy again, and will be eventually getting the other colors

Pros: The Cherry MX Brown imitation keys offering a great tactile response while being somewhat quiet. While theyre still noisy (and thats to be expected), theyre responsive without those loud clicks you get with MX Blue keyboards. I actually didnt know about the LEDs when I bought the keyboard. On my model they were not programmable, but you have a couple of different options to cycle through which provide decent backlighting and visual responses. The retro model looks great with the typical off-white and grey key pattern indicative of Model F/M IBM keyboards of the 70s-80s. Neutrals: So, those rounded keys: I cant say that these seemed to make a difference in my typing experience. They certainly arent bad or weird, or anything, just kind of there. Cons: No real cons. The retro-style feels like a steep jump from the all-black bargain bin looking keyboard, which given that it has no unique features or switches feels a little weird. The other thing is that you might end up struggling to find replacement keys, others have mentioned thats an issue. These rounded keys are unique to the keyboard, so keep that in mind if youre oaf that smashes keyboards or something, or if youre into custom key caps. Youre basically only going to get those caps from them. Its comfortable, relatively cheap, and the retro one looks great. Caps are probably not easily replaceable.

I like the “click” of the keys - solid keyboard… I use it to type/music production.

I love my new keyboard so much. I play video games everyday, and with this new keyboard, it has everything I want and need. I love how it sounds, feels, and looks. It is quite cheap for a gaming keyboard, but the quality is phenomenal.

My original work keyboard was cheap and plastic. Wanted something with a more tactile feel and sound. Have been using this keyboard everyday for the last 6 months without issue. Heavy, built like a tank. Reminds of the old IBM mechanical keyboards of the 1990s. The RGB lighting is cool too. Cant speak to its use as a gaming keyboard but for every day use, I highly recommend it.

I bought this keyboard about 8 months ago and it worked fine up until about a week ago. I’m in grad school studying environment modeling for video games so I use this keyboard for many hours everyday. It worked just fine and I thought it was super cute until recently it just stopped working. I am now constantly having to unplug and plug it back in in order to get it to work every single day. It’s very frustrating and not worth how much this cost if it’s breaking like this.
