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

I got it after stumble upon a review during Prime Day from a blog. Even though it was not part of the Prime day special, I went ahead with the purchase because of the reasonable price. I have a 3rd party brown switches keyboard (not Cherry MX). I thought I would try to Red switches from AJAZZ. After a week of usage I can tell you I like it a lot as an office keyboard. The keys are not as responsive as the brown keyboard due to the lack of tactile feedback, but it also generates a lot less noise. So Im pretty happy not to annoy anyone in my office with a clicky keyboard. The travel takes a little bit to get used to compare to a membrane keyboard. But once i get used to it it is a pleasure to use. The volume knob at the top right corner double as the backlight brightness control. Talking about the asthetics. I like the option of removable bezel cover (blue). In the end, I keep the light blue cover to give the light blue look. It give a very clean look on a white table surface, which is what I have at work. The overall asthetics is easy looking with the light color, while it doesnt shout out for additional attention. The plastic they use feels good to the touch as well. I wold defintely recommend this keyboard, along with other colors from the same seires, if you are looking to spend just a little bit of money to update your office without drawing too much attention.

Ive been wanting a good retro-style keyboard for a long time. I really didnt want to shell out for the big Unicomp modern Model M reissues, as I still wanted something that took up less space. I saw this keyboard on here and instantly loved the look of it, and after reading several reviews and deciding which key-switches were for me, I quickly ordered this keyboard. It arrived within the next day or 2. Firstly, you will realize just how high quality the product is, from the moment you look at the packaging. Secondly, when you open the package, you get wonderful additions like a dust cover, key-puller, extra keycaps, and just the overall vibe that this is a company that takes pride in their work and holds themselves to a high standard in terms of quality. Onto the keyboard. The keyboard has a very sturdy construction and is a bit heavy, but in the best way possible. Those old keyboards I grew up with were heavy. You could throw it at an attacker, and they probably wouldnt get back up too quickly. The typing on this keyboard is so satisfying. People might not like the loudness of a mechanical keyboard, which I understand, but Im sure if they were going for quiet, they wouldnt be going for retro. Onto Ajazz. I received an email just a day or 2 after the keyboard arrived, from a representative of the company. Thanking me for the purchase, asking me how I liked it, etc. That alone speaks volumes, that this company does care and takes pride in their work. I work as a quality inspector, so thats definitely something that I share with this company. Ill see myself using this keyboard for many years to come, and should the day come that they make an optical mouse that matches it, I will quickly purchase that. I would love a mouse with the same aesthetic, but the functionality of a modern gaming mouse.

I bought this a little weary of getting a relatively unknown brand keyboard at a cost that was cheaper than most of the big brands but was pleasantly surprised. Its a pretty large keyboard. It reminds me of a Model M, or my Razer Blackwidow Ultimate from 2013 in terms of size. The body and keys are all thick plastic. It feels like it has some heft to it. The keys also are tall relative to most keyboards and remind me to the feel of typing on an Apple Apple M0110A keyboard. It is very satisfying to type on. I went with the Brown keys. Im not sure exactly how they compare to licensed Cherry switches, but while they are a bit more quiet than my 2013 Blackwidow Ultimates Blue switches they still make a noticeable noise. They are louder than my Red switches in my Corsair K70R. Typing on the keyboard is a joy and feels very responsive. The keys being fairly tall meant it took a little getting used to gaming with it, but not much. It works very well for gaming, provided you like the clicky feeling of the Blue/Brown switches. One disadvantage of the keys is that you wont be able to simply replace them with other keys and get the same experience. The size of the keys provided are taller and different than other keys out there and if you swapped out the keys youd get a different experience. Fortunately the stock keys seem to be made of think and durable plastic, so they hopefully will last for a long time and replacing them due to them wearing down or breaking will never be an issue. The color of the keyboard is the classic beige, which isnt for everyone, but for those who like the novelty of old 80s keyboards will find it resembles those a lot. Even the Lock status LEDs resemble older keyboards. This style is only broken in the typeface, that has slits in the design of the characters. You can also turn on the keyboards backlight, which is fully RGB and customizable with their own Windows-only software or through key combinations. The software is functional and does what you expect for keyboard software in terms of setting profiles, RGB, and macros. It does not have some bells and whistles that many keyboard software suites provide now, but many people may think that is a good thing. Finding the software isnt obvious however. You can get it here on the Amazon page for the Keyboard as AJazz doesnt seem to host a link to it on their site. Overall I am happy with the keyboard. If you are looking for a good value in a Mechanical keyboard and like the aesthetics and feel of older retro 80s era keyboards I think its definitely worth checking out.

Absolutely worth the money I paid for it. I am a mania rhythm game player and I switched from razer greens to the black switch variant of this keyboard because I wanted to try linears and I loved the way this keyboard looks. It definitely feels very good quality and works great. Since this is my first keyboard that has fully customizable rgb effects, something I learned is that having complex rgb effect on can strongly effect input latency. It is better to remember to turn rgb effects off while gaming or at least only using something like steady or reaction. If you are unsure of the build quality and functionality of the keyboard, I can assure you it is good for this price and you wont find a better price for a keyboard with this aesthetic as far as my searching went. EDIT 5/24/21 It has been about half a year since I started using it and there are around 1.7 million presses on each of the keys I use for my rhythm game. Yesterday one of the switches broke during gameplay, which was sort of strange to me since it is far below the general amount of presses a mech switch should last. Could be a defect or something, so not really a deal breaker for me still since it has served me very well since I got it. The other keys are still doing fine and have higher key press numbers even, so it was probably some one off thing on a defective switch. To fix my problem, I simply moved my keybinds down one row so all is good! The key that broke is the semicolon, which I dont use much anyways, but I guess I was lucky it was a key I dont use much that was the defective one.

I love the feel of this Keyboard! I love the theme of it aswell i plan on building a sleeper build and this will fit the theme lovely

First off, Im a clicky person. I love keyboards that make a nice loud click. The blue switches on this keyboard sound great and typing on it is really comfortable. I also really love the aesthetics of this thing. I wasnt expecting to enjoy the RGB as much as I do but I wound up really loving the way this thing lights up and seeing all the different color options available. My only gripes are there is no instructions and the cord could be a bit longer for my purposes. I knocked a point off for the lack of instructions.

For a while I was looking for a retro, old school clunky keyboard. I saw this one, but kept being turned off by the fancy LED lights. We’ll, I should have just bought it when I first saw it because it’s awesome and I love it. I usually have all the lighting effects turned off, but some are actually quite cool and fun. Being able to have a keyboard that’s retro and futuristic at the same time with the lights is awesome; and just as cool as a straight vintage computing relic most of the time, with the lights off. But what really makes it come to life is swapping out the key caps. I went for the EPOMAKER AKKO Carbon Retro I also got here on Amazon, and the pictures speak for themselves. It’s *chef’s kiss*

Not overly a gamer keyboard. Its glows when you want it to or turn it off for a professional look. The keys are nice and responsive. Definitely punches up in quality could easily cost $20 more and be worth it.

Great keyboard for the price, feels solid. Software support isnt really there, I gave it a 3 for gaming because the dots on the F and J key and very small and pretty easy to miss if youre a touch typist. Overall, the quality is very solid, retry color is a nice, clean look.

very aesthetically pleasing to look at. really loved the volume knob at the top. light was bright with different options. the clicky sound was satisfying without being annoying. u can adjust the height too.
