having back lit keys is awesome, but they under lighting is so bright in the dark it makes it hard to see the key lighting. So does not help see the keys.

NPET K10 Backlit Gaming Keyboard, Black, Purchased 10/22, Reviewed 10/22/2022 I purchased the K10 budget membrane faux mechanical keyboard. I was searching for a backup budget keyboard because my main PC keyboard gave up the ghost after 7 years. I needed a backup so I could continue working from home, while I waited for the new replacement keyboard to arrive next week. 1st impression: when I grabbed the Amazon package at my front door, I thought, Wow, this is a heavy keyboard. Opening the package, I was impressed with its mechanical keyboard look, and it looked like a quality keyboard but at a budget price of $20. Of course, as soon as I set the K10 on the desk, I started testing the keypress feedback, noise, and how typing felt. Key travel felt a tiny bit stiff but still good for this price point. Any keying noise was surprisingly low. Plugging in the K10s braided USB cable, the first con is revealed: the cable is too short at 67 long, another 6 to 12 inches would be better. The boards RGB lights lit up, and my Windows 10 Pro PC had no issues with the new K10. The next thing I noticed, which is not necessarily a negative, is that the keys are smaller than typical full-sized keyboard keys. [Update edit 4/12/23: I later compared my full size keyboard and the new replacement keyboard I had ordered, and the keypad surface area is the same. (What was different was the K10s top surface has a slightly deeper concave indentation, so the feel is slightly different.)] I am a touch typist capable of 60+wpm so the size of the keypad felt a little off; however, with use, it would feel fine. With nearly 40 years of using and owning many computers and their keyboards, touch typing resulted in some initial missed direct keypad hits, but adjusting was easy. One additional observation: right after startup, a distinct odor was coming from the board, sort of an electrical and plastic overheating smell (note, I had the RGB lights off). After about 20 minutes, it faded, and I havent noticed it since. [edit 4/12/23 I have been using nearly 5 months most days on my Hosting Music pc and no issues at all.] What does a touch typist think of the key typing on the K10? • Sore fingers. My fingers were tired after 1 hour, and after 2 hours, they were sore. The problem is how I type, pushing down slightly harder than the average typist, who maybe learned to type on a mushy membrane keyboard. I learned on IBM Selectrics, which required a slightly heavier key press. The keystroke travel is higher or longer on the floating keys of the K10 than on most keyboards at 3.6mm, so I have to push further down for it to bottom out the key travel, and if I am typing hard and fast, my fingers are sore. I tested where the action point in the key travel seemed to be; its either halfway or slightly higher. So if I type with a lighter keystroke and try to avoid the key bottoming out, there should be less soreness. A lighter touch is possible, and the keys feel good as you type along and shouldnt cause sore fingers. I would like the stroke to be a little softer or less stiff. [edit 4/12/23 After some practice, I havent had any soreness issues.] • Noise, a comment about YouTube reviewers Any YT review doing their keyboard review on a wooden desk or a hard desk surface with no large mouse pad that cushions and accommodates both the keyboard and mouse is only testing the keyboards resonance with the hard desk, and that is likely 2x or 3x louder than typing with a keyboard on a desk size keyboard - mouse pad. Typing noise on the K10 sitting on a 32 x 12 x 2-3mm thick pad was very low. •No movement, the K10 on my full-size keyboard/mouse pad does not slide or move at all. The K10s weight and three rubber grip pads on the front bottom of the chassis, plus the two pull-out feet, securely hold the board with no movement. • Key wobble was not noticeable, very slight on the space bar. • RGB lights, are not my thing, but if there was an RGB selection that lit only the key letters and numbers, that would be ideal. However, its not an option. I have about 27 days to decide if I should keep the K10 or return it to Amazon. Im pretty sure its a keeper. [Update: 4/12/23, I kept the K10 and use it almost daily. For the price and for my type of usage, I would recommend the K10. Would it be a good gaming keyboard? I do play games, I tried it for one game, and it was fine, I have never owned an expensive gaming board or typed on one, so I cannot compare. ]

This keyboard is good quality and is small so it is perfect for a kid. The keys are loud which my kid likes. Would buy again.

First thing to note, this is an off-brand device. Didnt really know what to expect. You can tell by looking at it, thats it an off brand as the lettering and such is slightly off. Functionality though is pretty good. Im probably going to have to play with the sensitivity setting a bit but other than that...a completely functional keyboard at a great price.

Great keyboard

I like a clicky keyboard and this fits the bill.

I totally love this keyboard. It allows me to type with fewer mistakes because the buttons are big enough to only key one at a time. My letters have started to scratch off, other than that it’sa good buy.

However, the broken down arrow key could be an inconvenience for some users and may affect their gaming experience. The keyboard is also relatively affordable, making it a good option for gamers on a budget. However, the fact that a key broke just a week after use suggests that there may be issues with the keyboards overall durability and quality. Overall, the NPET K10 Gaming Keyboard appears to have some attractive features for gamers, but the broken down arrow key raises concerns about the keyboards durability. As with any product, its important to weigh the pros and cons before making a purchase, and to consider the potential risks and drawbacks before buying.

Great money spent, space bar was noises but worth it.
