> 3 dayThis keyboard is completely flawless. I have been using this keyboard for a few weeks now and I am in love with it. I purchased the Cherry MX Brown version and I am not disappointed. The keyboard comes in a high quality build with a keycap puller, a strong braided wire, and a manual. The wire is white and is USB to USB type C. The keyboard has integrated Bluetooth and connects every time to my computer right when I turn it on. To connect the keyboard to the PC with Bluetooth, turn on the switch at the bottom the keyboard, hold FN + Q for 5 seconds, then select HUOJI-1 on the Bluetooth menu, and thats it! The keyboard lasts for a few days wireless which is perfect for vacations and moving from place to place. The RGB feature is also perfect, with each LED having every color possible to create the best RBG flow. There are also many other patterns and colors than the RGB wave. The switches are exactly how Cherry MX Browns should feel and I could not be any happier with my purchase.

> 3 dayThe keyboard does not sound good and you can a metal cling with each time you hit a key. Otherwise a solid keyboard with good decent rgb.

> 3 dayLooks excellent with RGB, overall build quality is excellent too. The option to choose different switches was a nice touch, and I went with red. They sound and feel excellent. Theres no software, but you can customize effects/colors by using Fn+Enter (colors) and Fn+/? (effects.) There seems to be no delay while using bluetooth, and it includes a USB-C port if you want to use it wired. My one complaint is the placement of the ?/ key. Its on the opposite end of Shift, and the up arrow key. Very unusual. Still, its a minor inconvenience, and this is a great keyboard, especially for the price. (edit:) Ive had this for like a week, and the keys get stuck. I have to tap them again to make them unstuck. For someone who plays online competitive games, this is really annoying. Considering getting it replaced.

> 3 dayIve waited a few months to tes before writing this review. Ive had the keyboard since September 2021 and Ive noticed in the past few months since Ive begun working full time that there are some really annoying issues. To start, this keyboard dies fairly quickly, even after turning off the RPG, after the first few months of use. Im barely able to make it through half the workday without needing to charge it the rest of the day. It defeats the purpose of it being wireless. Secondly, when connected to my Mac via charger the keys change. Im a writer so its extremely annoying when I select symbols on the keyboard and they dont match to my Macs keyboard setup. This issue only occurs when wired, which is half the time now considering how trash the battery life is. Lastly, its extremely confusing and nearly impossible to connect this keyboard to multiple devices. My laptops have the most difficult time even seeking the Bluetooth connect from this keyboard, and once its connected to one laptop its so difficult to use the other connections for another device. It took me searching the review comments to find out how to attempt to connect to other devices, but the bluetooth settings didnt work. Its a cute little keyboard with pretty RPG but for long-term use, especially for work (if you write pretty often) its really annoying. I dont see the key changing being an issue for gaming, but if you game for long sessions youll have to connect this keyboard to your computer anyway, defeating the purpose of it being Bluetooth.

> 3 dayWas stoked for about an hour of having this keyboard. That is until I heard a loud SNAP and realized my USB dock was fried and hot to the touch, thank god it didnt fry all the things plugged to it. Not only that but the charge port for this keyboard was so hot I could SMELL burning and my entire room reeked of electrical fire. DO NOT BUY!

> 3 dayTL; DR: The RGB settings are easy to navigate, incl custom mode after some learning. Programming is pretty smart otherwise. Bluetooth is nice, no latency. Bluetooth buttons need to stop blinking for no reason though. For reference, the images are room light on vs light off. Before I ramble, first the important parts. If the Windows key isnt working, press Alt+Win until it does. That changes the mode for the OS. Also, about the custom keys. The instructions are very wonky at explaining them, but I finally understand it. Hold Fn+A for 3 seconds to color your keyboard however you want, cycling through every color... one key at a time... The easiest way to go about this is to use Fn+Enter to color what you want the majority of your keyboard to be then customize everything else. Press Fn+A to save your custom layout. You can do the same with Fn+S for a 2nd custom layout. And then press the | key to switch between the two layouts or press Fn+A or Fn+S to pick one. The instructions are somewhat broad since they say record so I thought I could record preprogrammed patterns into my custom layout. You cant. The custom mode doesnt account for brightness, speed or patterns. It also doesnt simply change to it when pressing Fn+|, Fn+A or Fn+S, you have to cycle through /? to get to single color mode first or else these custom mode keys will do nothing. The programming of the keyboard is very polished imo, but this is the most lackluster. Pressing Fn+|, Fn+A and Fn+S should just change instantly to custom mode. Although, I did find if you dont want to navigate your way to try to turn on custom mode, going into custom setup real quick (hold Fn+A or S for 3 sec and then press again to save) will be the closest to instant as possible to take you there. Now onto the rest of my ramble. Before buying, I didnt read too much into the connection capabilities so I was surprised to see the keyboard work with bluetooth and not require a dongle. And also how it charges by USB to USB-C and lets my computer know what percentage its at in bluetooth settings. My computer will notify me when my keyboard is at 5%. No more dying on the spot, nice! Having the keyboard in my hands, I must say I really like that theres no excess around it. I can also hold it in one hand and use it as a glow stick. For some reason I found it really interesting that the caps lock will light a different color depending on the base keyboard color, and wont change color unless the single keyboard color changes. This means that if the keyboard is green, the caps lock will always be pink even when changing the pattern of the keyboard or changing the color to rainbow. I like this feature. The spacebar also stays a constant blue when its charging and will breath slowly when its dying. There are already videos, but I like to describe the modes in text: Fn+/? key changes the pattern of the keyboard: Mode 1: rainbow Mode 2: ripple Mode 3: ripple row only Mode 4: single key color change Mode 5: mode 4 and its surrounding keys Mode 5: breathing Mode 6: single keyboard color (and custom mode) Mode 7: basically Tetris / wall building Fn+Enter key changes the color: Green keyboard -> pink caps lock and vice versa Blue keyboard -> yellow caps lock & vv White keyboard -> blue caps lock Red keyboard -> cyan caps lock & vv Off -> rotate a full cycle of caps lock colors. Its so unnecessary but interesting. The backlights turn off after a minute to save power when on wireless mode which is nice. When the keyboard is plugged in, the backlights will always stay on which is also nice! Very thorough programming! At this point, Im just surprised they left out the ability to hotswap. Also I noticed before, but Im going to note here that there are no page up, page down, end, insert, scroll lock and right ctrl buttons, which I can do without. Everything else seems to be present. Of course, the awkward /? placement is going to take getting used to. Along with trying to remember to press Fn + Shift + Esc for the tilda. But its worth it for a very nice keyboard. The only few negative things are a lot of the keys make slight pinging noises from the springs when tapped normally. And considering some of the home row keys of all things sound the noisiest, thats pretty disappointing and Im going to have to work on silencing them. Also personal nitpick, the 3 button bluetooth function is nifty, but its going to drive me crazy with how the Q/W/ or E button like start flashing for no reason. It doesnt seem to be a sign of lost connection. Fortunately I like my alphabet white so I dont have to see this on my custom mode. The only way to get Q/W/or E to stop lighting up is to not use bluetooth. On a positive note, if you like seeing feedback for every time Fn is pressed, you will like the bluetooth function, which will still do it even when the keyboard is plugged in, depending on the toggle of Fn+R. Another nitpick, I find the media key (Fn+M) to be the most useless thing on this keyboard. Im glad for whoever finds the shortcut for opening the default media player useful, but I wouldve preferred a mute button instead. Otherwise, fantastic keyboard! Its so bright that I keep the brightness at 50%. Also, very nice of Huoji to toss in a cap puller, they really didnt have to. Thanks! Update 10/20/21: Still a great keyboard. The pinging calmed down, I rarely notice it anymore. The placement of the /? key is second nature now. The battery still lasts a very long time. Only concerns are I bought some custom keycaps that fit kinda wonky but still works. For anyone wanting to customize, itll take some work since several of the keys have uncommon sizes and may likely sit higher than the original caps. They may also stick like some of the ones Ive tried. Also, the ctrl key is half functional even after trying to clean it. But the keyboard is still an 11/10 buy for me.

Greater than one weekBought this for work, something fun for my WFH setup, but its taking a lot of getting used to. Im a coder so I jump around the page a lot and rely on keyboard shortcuts. Ive had this keyboard a week and this is what Ive noticed. Key Issues: Like others mention, the placement of shift+/? keys. I wouldve been okay with this, but I do find that when I go back to my other keyboard I start mistyping when using Shift or /?. Also, I find I can easily delete a whole line if I accidentally hit Shift+Up arrow. Also why is there no End key. I never realized how much I use/need this key. Accessing ~ requires too many keys with Fn+Shift+Esc Well see how long it takes to adjust, but Im considering returning this keyboard already.
