> 24 hourThe Eksa keyboard has worked good so far, mostly for traveling. The Gateron low profile switches take a little getting used to as they are a little shallow in stroke. They are fairly quiet but the board itself can be on the medium loud side. In an office setting or on a call this probably inst the keyboard your are looking for. but is. pretty enjoyable for using alone. There is no flex in the keyboard and all of the colors of the north facing RGB are bright. I wish there was a little more control over the side LED strip to match the keys but that is a small issue. Switching between Mac and Windows easy with the switch. The slider actually works really well and controls the volume which is really handy to have immediately accessible. I had no problem connecting the keyboard in any oof the three ways. Turning the RGB off is a good way to get a little more out of the battery but I usually use a wired setup anyway. I find it to be a lot easier that way but there was no issue using in wirelessly. The included dongle works and has a really convenient holder that attaches to the cable. The cable itself is pretty good for the price point and a fabric covered usb-c cable. This is a good travel keyboard and a general use keyboard. It is nice and compact and everything works as it should. It is a little eon the more expensive side but given that it has Gateron switches, is wireless & bluetooth, and works as it should make it a very reasonable keyboard for the price. It competes with other 3-way keyboards in the same price bracket. The metal top plate gives it a little heft and makes it feel more premium. Recommended if you need a compact travel board and like the shorter throw of the Gateron low profile switches (or want to try them).

> 24 hourI never knew how good a mechanical keyboard felt until i picked this up. Im not a PC Gamer by any stretch of the imagination. Up until now a keyboard was just utilitarian in nature. The keys feel responsive and snappy and the sound it makes is an auditory pleasure. Note: This is not a keyboard to use when youre laying in bed next to your sleeping significant other. Setup was a breeze. I connected the USB-C Cable to my mac mini and it was instantly recognized. Hold Function (Fn) and either Q,W, or E to assign a bluetooth device, or Function (Fn) R to switch the keyboard to 2.4Ghz mode with the included dongle. Having 4 different wireless profiles allows this keyboard to be used with nearly all your devices. The RGB is a nice touch. The keyboard has plenty of adjustability for brightness, pattern, speed, key cap color, and background color. I dont think ill ever go back to a non backlit non mechanical keyboard ever again. The only gripe i have is the volume slider. its smooth but feel like it has too much travel when adjusting the volume. My Mac will hit 100% volume when the slider is moved quickly to the halfway mark. Not a deal breaker and technically its functional.

> 24 hourThis is a good option if you are looking for a very thin, light, reduced layout mechanical keyboard. The small footprint of this keyboard is great for ergonomics and portability. It is not only a smaller size as far as layout goes, but the low profile means that your fingers will do much less work to press each key. This keyboard uses linear red switches, which means very smooth keystrokes. The keys are also very stable. If the keys are not stable, when you press them, they wobble and it makes typing much less satisfying. They used good stems on the keys to make sure that the keys feel very secure when you press them. The keyboard has RGB backlighting which is controlled using FN combinations. You dont need any additional driver software installed to use the advanced functions of this keyboard. That is great, because that means that there is no need for running drivers that can cause conflicts with other software, or that hog system resources. I have to say, after using several other mechanical keyboards that operate lighting and other features with key combinations, this keyboard has the most sensible combinations I have come across. In addition, everything is labeled on the keycaps so you wont have to worry about remembering every function or having to keep the manual handy. The keyboard itself is made from an aluminum alloy, and comes with a USB-C cable with an attached holder for the 2.4Ghz receiver. I love this design choice as a lot of these wireless mechanical keyboards dont have any good storage to keep the receiver handy when you need it. It also comes with a manual. The keyboard has easy operation...it has a Windows/Mac switch and a wireless, wired switch. You can use the 2.4Ghz receiver or Bluetooth 5.0 to connect the keyboard wirelessly. You switch between wired modes with an FN combination. There is a volume slider on the top of the left side of the keyboard. The slider is not as precise as a volume knob, but it works very well for adjusting volume. This keyboard is super light. It is not plate-mounted, so it is not going to have the extra heft or stability of a plate mount, but it is going to be much lighter for it. Also, the keys will not ping, and will be even quieter. The RGB lighting actually shines through the keycaps on this mechanical keyboard, which is what I prefer for working later. The keycaps feel like ABS, but then that is likely why the lighting can shine through the keycaps. PBT keys feel better but dont work well with RGB backlighting. I love this keyboard. The only real issue I have with it is the price. For what you are getting the price seems a little high. There are some similar layout keyboards that do cost less. That said, I really like this keyboard for my mobile setup. It is so light and works so well that I think it is worth it.

> 24 hourThis keyboard is so near to being perfect for productivity. I have all the dedicated keys I need to be able to work optimally. I also have access to all the standard Fn Keys on the number row and plenty of other secondary functions throughout the keyboard. You can connect wirelessly via 2.4Ghz with included USB dongle, Wirelessly via BT, or wired via USB-C. You can select between Windows or Mac configurations via a switch on the right side. This is also where you will find the mode switch for Wired/Wireless. Bluetooth allows connection to up to 3 selectable devices and setup is a breeze. The left side of the keyboard has a slider that controls your volume seamlessly. It really works well and is a fantastic place to put it as it is out of the way, yet easily accessible when I need it. I personally like the look of this keyboard with the Orange and Dark Gray color scheme and the RGB mode is pretty full-featured. There are plenty of Color options to choose from so Im sure youll be able to find one you like. The footprint is small, the features are large and the switches are smooth. The Keycaps are rather low profile and are comfortable coming from laptops and other low-profile keyboards. I would recommend this keyboard for anyone who is looking for something rather slim to travel with or for a good option for a full-featured mechanical board for a great price!

> 24 hourThis keyboard is incredible. We go through a lot of keyboards and we are always looking for new technology as we use our televisions with PCs for streaming, work, paying bills, etc. Everything works so well on this keyboard but it feels so well made. It is incredibly responsive but it goes so easily from being charged to connected and useful. This keyboard has multiple Bluetooth channels that function brilliantly. The lights are also easy and fun. A picture of the Bluetooth and 2.4 GHz buttons and light functions are included. This is the best keyboard we have touched. The bar has been set very high and EKSA puts out amazing quality. 5 stars and one of the best keyboards on the market at any price. Brilliant!

> 24 hourKeyboard preferences are very personal. Theres key travel, key resistance, key spacing, keyboard angle, key size and so many more factors that can keep one person happy and another ready to move on. Telling you this keyboard is just for you is like telling you the temperature of my shower water is ideally suited for you too. Youre going to have to decide. Ive used the same gaming keyboard(s) as my everyday keyboard for about 20 years. Its a classic Deck (The red one in the attached photos ). Im not a gamer; I just like the size and feel of a good gaming keyboard for everyday use. The Deck is my standard. I evaluated another gaming keyboard about a month ago and came to like it very much. I like its angle, and key travel and that-difficult-to-describe feel. Its the green/black one in my photos. The only thing I didnt like was its slightly reduced key spacing. This Eksa keyboard (the orange/black one in my photos), like the other two, is very solidly built. Theres nothing flimsy about it. Its got good heft. It stays still on my desk. Its key spacing and key size are full size, like the Decks. I like that. The keys have a positive click associated with contact. The one thing Im not sure if I like yet is the very short key travel. My Decks got Cherry reds and their travel is deeper. I can understand a serious gamer wanting minimal travel. For me it will take some getting used to (not to say I wouldnt). Features on the keyboard include all sorts of lighting effects, a very well placed volume control, and provisions for USB connectivity, or wireless/Bluetooth. For the detached options it has a rechargeable battery onboard. This is all good design. I like the versatility. I agree with the product description that this keyboard is so low profile that no wrist rest is needed. Its quite comfortable to use. Also, there are two angle settings (up, and down). Two of my photos show these two settings, and in contrast with the other two keyboards I like. Bottom line: its well built, and it has some very useful features. Will it suit you? I dont know. Youll have to try it yourself. I do recommend you try if you like the feel and utility of a well designed gamer keyboard.

> 24 hourIm surprised by how much I like this keyboard - Im typing this review on it, and its my new favorite. Its compact and solidly made. The switches are stable, so theres no wiggle in the keys like youd see with cheaper keyboards. You can connect it any way possible: bluetooth, 2.4 ghz dongle, or straight USB with the fabric USB cable. If youre into keyboards, youll understand this: its very thocky, although Im likely going to pull the switches and give them a good lube to improve the sound. I really appreciate that they included arrow keys - thats not something you usually see in 65% keyboards. The battery life is outstanding, and it has no problem lasting forever while still running non-stop light displays. Something that isnt really mentioned in the description is there is a sliding volume key on the left side of the keyboard, and Im finding myself using it way more than I would have thought. I hope this was helpful - this is a very solid keyboard that maximizes the 65% frame, and then some.

> 24 hourThe Mechanical Keyboard, 65% Low Profile Wireless Gaming Keyboard with Red Switch is a great mechanical keyboard. The feel of the mechanical keys is more satisfying than the newer style flat keyboards. I use a Mac and appreciate there is a simple switch to change between Mac and PC. I dont especially like the orange keys, but I knew what I was getting so no loss of a star.
