Best keyboard I’ve ever owned

I love how compact the keyboard is and allows for a lot of room for the mouse, especially when you have a small desk like mine. The backlights are absolutely beautiful and the amount of customization makes this an amazing choice for people into aesthetically pleasing items. I chose red switches which are really nice and smooth to type with, however, when it comes to gaming the switches lack that click that lets you know youve pressed the key. This has interfered with my gaming as I have accidentally pressed unwanted keys. But that is easily fixable as this keyboard is fully customizable and you are able to exchange the switches. This keyboard doesnt feel like its cheap. Not that I know what an expensive keyboard feels like, but for those who just use keyboards for their basic functionality, I would 100% recommend this one for its price point. So far, this keyboard has been amazing to do work/game with. I recommend this keyboard for those who are looking for aesthetically pleasing keyboards and are on a budget. I also believe this is a good product to play games with if you understand how to modify switches to give yourself the best experience. For me, Im looking to exchange some of the red switches with more tactile ones so I dont accidentally press down on them during games. Overall, I love this keyboard so much and I am in heaven using this keyboard to type out this review. I hope this has helped.

Sturdy and nice keyboard. My son loves it and it has held up quite nicely!

It works great. It looks sexy. What more can you ask for?

The keyboard stock is nothing special but once modded its great my only complaint is the left shift and alt it is hard to find keycaps.

A great keyboard in every way except for one glaring problem. The END and HOME keys (which are used FAR more often) is set under the Fn (Function) key. Instead, they decided that PgUp and PgDown are more important... yeah. They prioritize access to keys nobody actually uses since the early 90s because we all have scroll wheels on our mouse since the year 1993. So now it makes typing WAY slower and work productivity has gone down because we have to press 2 keys to reach the Home and End which is necessary for even the most basic text navigation in almost every application out there. Especially in programming and writing. On a keyboard that is made for typing well with good switches and a great tactile feel. Why do so many manufacturers get it so right, then drop the ball at the very End? If all you plan on doing is pressing WSAD and saying omg and lol to friends in a game then it might be fine.

the keyboard feels super high quality & heavy. the switches (I got them in red) aren’t too loud, they sound more thocky (yes, even the space bar) and feels nice to press on, no ‘mushiness’ kinda feel. theres a lot of color and mode options for the rgb, which is perfectly seen through the letters. came with a keycap puller too :) also, the keyboard arrived about 2/3 days before the designated date. couldn’t be happier with this purchase <3

Love it! Customizability is excellent with the nimbleback, ur able to remove the outside casing which is very handy, since it can give it a more slimmer and minimal look. Quality overall really good! Currently running hippo linear switches and some XDA switches on them. I should mention however, i wish the rear kick stands were a little bit taller. But other than that its amazing!

It came with some odd Jerzi red switch clones. These switches sound good/similar to my ducky one two mini Gateron Reds. They have a very light actuation force though, I noticed myself pressing space bar without intending. I purchased some AKKO Rose Reds but preferred these. Im currently trying KTT Mint Liners that sound amazing in this keyboard. Hot swap is easy, and the board had some foam inside the case! I added a bit extra as it isnt too thick but Im surprised to see it included in the board. The stabilizer are also pre lubed, havent checked to see if they are clipped though. They also seem to have some foam between the pcb and plate. The keycaps arent great like every other keyboard but I swapped them out with some XDAs and they add to the sound and experience. Id suggest to move the logo on the side or back as its a bit obnoxious sitting on the front and slightly better keycaps. With included foam, hot swap, and pre lubed stabilizers I find this hard to beat. Will update if I have longevity issues.
