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

I was looking for a 90s aesthetic keyboard to bring together a vaporwave theme in my room. This thing is great! Its a good mechanical keyboard that looks retro until you turn it on. Love this thing

I have some favorite keyboard makers. Im not big into building from scratch so, like most consumers, am at the mercy of what manufacturers want to manufacture. My shortlist of favorite keyboards is probably familiar, Royal Kludge, Razor, and Durgod sit at the top. All popular brands. And then there is this lurker...AJAZZ. My first AJAZZ keyboard was the 82-key AJAZZ GEEK. Although I love my 60% keyboards for customization, small size, and gaming they lack the quick key access for programming and daily work. I upped my game to the GEEK with blue switches and found a sense of happiness. I would have left well enough alone if not for the 1.5u sized Right shift... Enter the AK510. I dig older computers and have always wanted to go for something with that retro feel. Not wanting to shell out $100+ for Durgods latest release and get another 60% I went for this instead. Its a grown-ups keyboard. Has all keys. Has all the lights too! You can customize this keyboard so that each and every key has its own color...and then save it! The built-in light functions are the typical ones so your favorite (breath is mine) is there. I got the browns for this one and I dont regret it. I love tactile and I love clicky, but the Browns are what I need for hours of typing and working. The feel is there to satisfy but not loud enough to annoy. Stabs are OK, have not put the miles on to really know. They are not lubbed like Durgod but not cheap feeling either. Well... thats it. Ive got a spread sheet to zoom around! YAY!

I was looking for a keyboard to replace the one I had been using with my work computer. The one my work originally gave me wasnt that good and since it is something I am on all day mostly writing code and I wanted something that was pleasant to type on, not particularly noisy and not too expensive since this was going to be mostly a work keyboard. The build is completely solid. When you lift it the keyboard has some pretty serious heft. The keys are not too loud but do have a satisfying click. I liked the orange replacement keys that came with it. They add a nice accent to the color scheme. The built in RGB is quite interesting. I am not a huge RGB guy really but having the red solid light on I find to be pretty nice. Its pretty simple to switch between modes and such. I havent messed with the software that supposedly allows you to do even more but I guess that exists if you search for it.

I use this keyboard for both work and gaming. The feet on the keyboard allow it to be slanted upwards which is very good for someone who works at a desk for long hours. Very good at helping with wrist comfort. The RGB lights are pretty great while also not messing with the retro aesthetic of the keyboard itself. Lastly, the keys are very responsive and of course sound great while typing.

At this price, you get a LOT for your money. It comes with a full set of PBT keycaps and Zorro switches that are a decent Cherry MX clone. Not sure if they are lubed, but they feel smooth without any sandiness/graininess. Key consistency is also very acceptable. The board itself is solid - feels reasonably heavy and does not flex. The stabilizers, while maybe not on the level of custom-built, are far better than most branded gamer keyboards, such as Corsair. There is no spacebar rattle. Also, due to the uncommon keycap form factor, the sound of the keys is actually quite distinct. It sounds noticeably different from your standard Cherry MX keys. Oh, and theres even RGB, if youre into that. It does not fit at all with the theme of this keyboard, so I just leave it off. Overall I am very satisfied. I bought this to fit the theme of my most recent retro PC build, and ended up receiving a keyboard that almost gives my custom-builts a run for their money.

I bought one of these about a year ago with the brown switches. I love it so much that I just bought a second one for another workstation. This time I bought the blue switches which feel great, but definitely have a louder, sharper click than the browns. I find I personally prefer the browns, but if you want a click go with the blues. Theres a good throw on the keys. The shapes of the caps feels like the old boards from the 80s that I learned to type on, which is what I was really looking for. Its great for daily work and gaming. I especially love how heavy these boards are. I couldnt recommend this keyboard more highly, and the price is fantastic.

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.

Keeping it short and simple but the keyboard is good the only thing Im confused about it how do I keep the lights on the keyboard to stay on?

I LOVE this board. Somehow I ordered the Blue switches on accident when inventory was limited (meant to get the Browns, oops!) but they do have a nice loud clicky sound and precise input. There is also a slight spring recoil sound when they come back up after being pressed, which may annoy some, but I dont mind it. Maybe the browns dont make that sound, I dont know for sure. The board itself is very heavy and sturdy feeling, and the RGB is SUPER bright! Rubber feet are nice, and the kick-stands have rubber on them too which is great. The keycaps are small, and perhaps a little flimsy, but you can always replace them down the road if you so wish. Overall, its a great mechanical keyboard for the price, and the look is perfect for us retro nerds. You nailed it, thanks Ajazz! p.s.

Love the look of the keyboard vintage but futuristic. Wish I order different switches. I order brown on mine to make it silent but the keyboard feels mushy and not clicky. Other downsides youll have to figure out how to change stuff yourself online instruction arent too clear and seem to be missing a lot, also the usb wire is not detachable
