> 3 dayI like the touch of this keyboard. First I have tried a quality mechanical keyboard. Had to get a wrist rest to keep from pressing keys on the edge inadvertently. It is not a low profile keyboard. My problem is with the lighting. I want a solid color that is always at full brightness. Instead, it cycles, like christmas lights, from low to high intensity and changing colors as it goes! What makes matters worse is that the dual use keys (like : and ;) show both symbols at the top edge of the keycap! Why not place them distributed vertically rather than horizontally at the top of the key? UGH. I was going to install the software to control it, but it is not signed software so Windows jumps in your face discouraging installing it. What made that concerning is that the company website doesnt give me huge confidence that I am at the right place when downloading it. Still havent installed it after getting a virus warning. They need to have a way to use key sequences to cycle through default lighting modes.

> 3 dayThis thing arrived and I was pleasantly surprised with all that was included with this keyboard! It came with a usb c cable, 4 extra switches(the same that were installed in the board), a really good key cap puller and switch puller, and some magnetic feet to adjust the height. I played a few rounds of MW2 with this keyboard out of the box using the 2.4ghz Dongle. I was surprised with the responsiveness. Then I see that there is also blue tooth. I tried that out on my iPad and it was almost as good as the RF connection. I was very surprised. The next thing that was a big plus for me was that there is full mac support for this keyboard. That isnt common with gaming boards that are in this price range. The other pleasant surprise is the usb passthrough on the board. there are not a lot of wired boards with that functionality. The only con I ran into was that there was no way to see the battery level on board, and when you are connected to rf you wont be able to see the battery percentage. There is a good trade off though as the keyboard will allow you to see that battery level when you are connected with blue tooth There really is no way that I would be able to give this board any lower than 5 stars!

> 3 dayIt is a decent keyboard with respect to hardware. The keyboard I got was the newer 2021 manufactured one, and it does not have any issue with the 2.4ghz connection. It works flawlessly for approximately 5 feet of range, after which it starts missing many of the keypresses. One thing to note is that the latency benefits are not that much for this 2.4 ghz connection compared to Bluetooth 5.0. We should not expect Logitech lightspeed level of performance. It is just a good option when the device you are connecting to does not have Bluetooth capabilities. The switches used in this keyboard are actually very acceptable. Not the smoothest. Lubing the switches should surely help. The stabilizers are also decent. The keycaps are very good abs keycaps for the price. Overall the hardware is on par to, say Keychron k2 v2. Out of the box, these keyboards are a huge upgrade from cheap membrane or mechanical keyboards. Although, these keyboards wont match in out of the box typing quality to keyboards like Yunzii Akko. Issues arise when dealing with the firmware and the software. The device has a really unintuitive battery level indicator. The official instruction says: Spacebar will flash 3 times when battery is not full, 5 times when it is fully charged. For me, even after charging for 10 hours, the space bar never flashed 5 times. I reconnected the keyboard as well to reset the keyboard, but that did not help. Further, there is no way to know even an approximate estimate of charge level. So, there was no way to confirm if the firmware was failing to show full battery, or if the battery actually did not charge. Another major issue is that the backlight turns of in 15-20 seconds when in wireless mode, irrespective of the sleep time set in the software. In wired mode, the backlight stays on for the correct amount of time. Overall, all these issues add up and make it difficult for me to recommend these to anyone who cannot ignore such irritations.

> 3 daySo Ive been typing on this board for a few days now and first I would like to say the 2.4Ghz is completely useless. The bluetooth works but there are constant missed key presses and I dont use the keyboard with a wire because why would I... Id get a much cheaper board if I didnt need wireless. I usually type around 80 wpm and with this board the best Ive done is 50 because of the CONSTANT missed key strokes. They simply dont register. Especially the space. I am very disappointed. Even writing this review has been a hassle with the constant missed keys. (Im pressing the but the simply dont register) Ive had at least 10 missed key strokes during writing this review.

> 3 dayThe biggest complaint people seem to have with this keyboard is the software. Well, unless you need macros or to create custom layers, you neednt bother. This keeb is supported by SignalRGB! That being said, the build quality is exceptional for this price point, it is hot-swappable, and the lighting looks really good! I am giving this keyboard as a gift to my daughter, and I know she will absolutely love it! I may consider swapping out the switches with some Kailh Box Whites, and already did swap the keycaps with XVX low-profile double-shot PBT shine-throughs, but the Gateron Blues are probably good enough for now...
