Greater than one weekWe got this for our teen son for Christmas and bought two more after seeing how cool his is. Not only does it look amazing, but the click feels just right.

> 3 daySo I am an applications engineer that writes code but also works with hardware. Ive gone into the Linux world and I simply cannot come back. As such, Ive even setup my system to primarily only work with keystrokes. Because of this, I constantly use the keyboard to move around switch windows open up applications code in vim etc. Pros: Build appearance. Took a page right out of apples book. The technology here is just gorgeous. Volume key: The cheap plastic could use some work here but I like that they added it. Transparant switch covers? This is awesome, I wish more manufacturers made it so you could see the switch. I love technology and these guys did not disappoint. Cons: Titan switch. Roccats own design. For gamers, this might be nice, the short travel and the rgb with the aluminum plate might be perfect. I cant stand the mushy feel of keys and I want a tactile or clicky feel when I press a key. I have found a lot of people especially gamers love that linear switch. I would say for gamers, this is definitely a win. Keycaps: Part of what makes the keyboard look so cool is the design of the keycaps being so small and thin. Sadly, this also makes it a bit difficult to type on. Granted, spend a week typing on this and you will be just fine. I guess Im just not a fan of floating style keycaps. Great for occasional use, but not for a professional who needs to type quickly. Rocatt Software called Swarm.... Sadly, this is where the quality takes a big hit. Im not a professional software engineer, but I do have some coding experience. While the front of the program is nice and looks shall we say spiffy. Its riddled with bugs. I had to constantly restart the program just to get downloads to work. I took a look on reditt and found multiple people indicating that their servers were down. Granted it was around 1am when I was trying to download the patch from the server, but there was no indicator that the server was down. If they were doing maintenance they should send a response indicating they would be back the following day or in a few hours. Instead the next day I attempted it in the afternoon and it kind of worked and then failed. After restarting it a few times it downloaded. After that I was able to program the keyboard which was a bit fun. I had fun with the ripple effects and adjusting the rgb values for the LEDs. One of the reviews on youtube advised of a frustrating feature of the profile not being saved to the keyboard and only working when the software was running. I believe they have resolved this problem as after I shutdown my virtual machine the keyboard still had the same profile. So it looks like it does store the light configuration in non-volatile memory. Good! Overall, the aesthetic of the keyboard is great. It just looks amazing and its what sold me on it in the first place. I found the titan switches to not have that tactile feel like I was used to. Instead it was more of a linear switch with a bump in the middle. This might be perfect for some people. For me, If Im spending 150 or more on a keyboard, it needs to feel just right when I type. I didnt get that experience. However the keyboard itself is an eye catcher. So it depends on what someone wants. If they are looking for an rgb keyboard with software that allows them to customize it to their hearts content and have a conversation piece for their buddys when they come over. Then yes, this should appeal to the gamer and average person. For the professional who uses a mechanical keyboard for typing and writing software, there are better keyboards. However for the professionals who seem to like the magic keyboard from Apple, with no travel distance. Then you might really enjoy this keyboard, as it will have a lot more travel distance but still give you a nice feel but allow you to type much longer because you will not be bottoming out every time you type so your fingers wont be sore. Plus the yellow light with the white keycaps and aluminum base makes a nice professional look and doesnt cause too much noise.

Greater than one weekfirst time owning a roccat product but not the first time ive used one. this is certainly a nicer keyboard then the corsair Strafe II i had prior. the software is also very neat although Roccats swarm isnt as customizable as Corsairs Icue it definitely is a lot less resource intensive then Icue is, nor is it as prone to bugging out and crashing like Icue. The keycaps feel very nice and smooth and im glad i went with Brown switches again.

> 3 dayThis is a nice keyboard and I have NOT had issues with peeling paint on keys or elsewhere... and thats great. However, after three months of use it just stopped working yesterday. The keys no longer light-up and the device isnt recognized by Windows 10 anymore. I tried updating the firmware but no help. It appears to be a hardware fail. Will update with the response from Roccat - no matter how great (or not so great) a product is support is always a key factor in a purchase.

09-06-2025Ultra bright. Smooth button presses but feels like a mechanical. Great looks and function. Love the volume wheel. Hate the intelligent aimo feature, just put it on wave with bright at full. Beautiful construction and materials.

> 3 dayNote: I am worried about the keys chipping as seen in other reviews and will update this if I run into that. If I havent mentioned it yet - it hasnt happened. This keyboard is LOVELY to type on. Just typing this review is a delightful experience. They keys feel so great and the coating that they have on them is just slightly grippy which really gives a super professional finish. The MX Brown switches are just enough click to not be absurd like MX Blue switches. The LEDS are bright as heck, and insanely smooth. If you select an animated RGB preset youll be amazed how smooth the animations are. This keyboard is everything I wanted and more and because of that I will be ordering more Roccat products in hopes that the quality is the same among their whole lineup.
