AULA Mechanical Keyboard, 87 Keys Wired Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, RGB Backlit Keyboard with Brown Switches for Windows Laptop PC Mac

This 87-key keyboard isnt great by itself, its also sweet that they include off-colored key caps and a cap-puller to customize your keyboard, not to mention the key puller is handy for cleaning-time. The LEDs are fully funtional, and the instruction manual explains how to customize them using the function keys. Programming functionality is limited to on or off. The pre-programmed 20 light effects mode have fancier patterns, with brightness and speed controls. The function key allows the standard multimedia keys. To wit, each key has a set color that cannot be changed. While Im a gamer, Im actually the head of my local Anti-WASD chapter. Im also a typist and a programmer; I demand my index finger be on F. Let us use ESDF for left-hand movement, mkay? I digress. Regardless, this keyboard is worth the listed $34 without any of the RGB effects. I enjoy the feel of the keys, Im trying to figure out how the spacebar gets its enjoyable punch and snap-back. My real criticism is the UDB-C connector to the keyboard (standard USB-A at the other end to connect to your computer/device.) It actually snapped into the port nicely, but the fact is it rather easily wiggles. If it wiggles, it will fail eventually. Alas, we can assume most people wont be moving or removing the cord too often. Still, this product exceeds the price point. I intended to purchase Aula devices in the future.

This is a fairly well designed keyboard. I like how they compartmentalized the keys on color based on gaming. I frequently game in lower light conditions so having a backlit keyboard is important. Some will fool you by only having light come from the cracks between the keys but in this case, each key is fully illuminated from below so the letters and functions are crisp and clear. I am used to a larger keyboard so this one takes some getting used to. It has been a few days so my mistakes are becoming less frequent so that is a plus. I have not had any key failures and when my crisps powder had fallen into the keyboard it was a simple quick shake to get most of it out. I am very happy with this product so far!!!

I’m going to be honest here: the very low price of this genuinely mechanical board really is impressive and makes it a no-brainer for younger computer gamers that really want to jump into the mechanical market. There are plenty of fantastic upgrades for twice the price, but at $20, you’d be hard-pressed to find anything remotely close to what this offers. I’m not a huge fan of the manufacturer branding and double shot caps are pretty low quality, but they are double shot, which is very unexpected for the price. Also it includes some orange, alternate-colored caps and cap puller. The lights work fine and board features side-lighting too. The over-all quality is decent: the plastic housing is in-line with the offerings from Microsoft and Logitech’s membrane boards in the $20-30 price-point. The keys themselves work great and the board is better to type on than anything else you’d buy for $20 or less. Really, it all comes down to price here. If this was a $40 keyboard I’d tell you to move on, but for $20, you really can’t go wrong here. I would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for a mechanical keyboard on a very tight budget.

Ive had this for a total of about an hour and I am obsessively finding new reasons to type things because the clackity clack of this keyboard is so ridiculously satisfying. At this price, it gives you the satisfaction without the ridiculous price tag of other mechanical keyboards. Lets be real, Im probably going to use this a couple of hours a day and use my quieter one during online meetings while working from home, but those couple of hours will be quite enjoyable! Also, works well, plug and play, right out of the box on a Mac. The Windows key just turns into the Command key, so remember that when trying to copy and paste and such. The cord is decently long as well, but if you want to connect directly to a Mac with Thunderbolt 4 inputs youll probably want to grab a USB Type C male-to-male cord as well. I am currently running it with the included cord (which is USB-C to normal USB) into a dongle, which works fine.

Works well, quick response, well built

I was looking for a mechanical keyboard and came across this one. If is well built and easy to use. The key strokes are very smooth and pleasant to the ears. The in built lights really set the atmosphere for some leisure gaming after a long day. It also comes with extra orange keys which you can switch with the original ones to customize your keyboard. I would recommend this to others.

This is a wired keyboard. I am so used to wireless, I didn’t think I will be ordering a wired one these days. The wire is inconvenient but at least you will not have to worry about charging the keyboard, plus the keystroke and response is solid with the wired. The main reason I ordered this keyboard is the backlit, so I can see the keys at nighttime, which is working great. My only issue is the sound that keys make when I type, which is too loud.

this keyboard is great for typing, doesn’t require too much force but still have mechanical feedback. Small size makes it easier to carry around

This is a nice light up keyboard even for non gamers. I used this for my laptop that doesnt have a backlight. I like that the sides also light up. It is lightweight and does not make too much noise. Very sturdy and Im sure this will last long. I would recommend.

I have been told that I am a loud typer. Typing on this is extra loud. I also feel as though each of the keys is slightly smaller than they should be making my fingers not naturally rest on the keys easily. This was uncomfortable to type on. It connected easily though and functions as a keyboard ok.
