HUO JI E-YOOSO Z-19 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with True RGB Backlit, 5 Pin Hot Swappable Blue Switches, Number Pad, Pro Software Supported, Wired Compact 94 Keys for PC/Computer, Black Grey

Update: the item was replaced and functions correctly. Must have just got a bad one? My only reason for not giving 5 stars now is because of the length of the cord, it could be longer. Unfortunately, only 1/2 the keyboard lights up and you cannot count on keys when pressed. The windows shortcut key worked when it wants to and some keys didnt work at all. Only some key shortcuts work SOMETIMES, the only one that worked always is turning on the backlight, which only lit 1/2 the keyboard. The keys for raising or lowering brightness, changing color etc. did not work. Additionally, the keyboard is plugged in via a removeable USB cable that is about 4 feet long, its just barely long enough to reach my pc. I have reached out to the seller to see if I just received a bad one and will update this review, but for now I cannot recommend this product. While this is a review of a free or reduced price product, it is an honest review of the product, no different than if I purchased the item at full price.

It says in your description “You can customize the backlit of each key as you like”. Does that mean that each key color can be individually set?

To start off, Im a newbie with mechanical keyboards so take everything here with a grain of salt :) After having my favorite mechanical keyboard start failing after two years and it being discontinued, I decided to try something a little more customizable and compact. This is by far my favorite layout/size balance- has most of the necessary keys, but seems like its almost half the size of my old keyboard. As far as switches go, the stock Huano browns are not bad at all. I lubed them and that definitely improved the feel and sound, but I ended up replacing them with SP-Star Magic Girl tactiles (lubed as well), which I do significantly prefer. (Side note: the fact that this keyboard is compatible with 5-pin switches gave it a major leg up on the competition- I saw VERY few at this price point.) The base is solid and hefty and Ive had no issues with sound as far as that goes. I did also replace the keycaps which I feel improved the sound. With functionality, Ive had no issues with the reduced number of keys. Everything is still accessible through the function key. No issues with ghosting during gaming and all switches have worked great the whole time Ive used them. Overall, if youre looking for a good place to start out with modding your keyboard, I think this is a solid choice. The stock switches and caps will do what you need them to, and it has great compatibility for any mods you may want to do. I would buy this keyboard again if they had more color options.

My son is big into gaming on his PC and Id been trying to replace his old keyboard (that has some keys missing) with a new one, but hadnt been able to find the right one until now. This keyboard is great and he hasnt went back to his old one since getting it. He didnt even use the last one I chose for him for a full day before reverting back to his old one. I use that one now. But this one has been great for him for the last full month and seems like it will last. Its well-made. He thinks its nice and works well for the price point. We havent had any issues with it, and the lights look cool. We highly recommend it and think its a good price!

Im a big fan of this keyboard. It has a compact design so it fits more easily on my desk than a full-size keyboard. Its truly plug-and-play as well with no need to install any drivers to get it working. It was as simple as unboxing the keyboard and plugging in the included USB to USB-C cable, and I was good to get started typing away. Typing on this keyboard feels punchy and satisfying as I go about my workday. Its a huge improvement in comfort to the chiclet-style keys on my laptop computers. Typing on a flat laptop keyboard for long periods of time tends to give me discomfort in my fingertips but Im not having that problem at all with the E-YOOSO keyboard. It also came with a couple of extra bright orange keys for Esc and the spacebar which adds a neat (optional) pop of color. It was very simple to swap the keycaps with the included key puller tool. Also, the RGB lights still remember the settings I chose even after I plugged it in to two different laptops. I would have liked to see an orange option for the solid color lighting but white looks pretty cool as well. Its easy to set the color scheme you prefer using the key combos detailed in the user manual and there are plenty of options to customize your preferred look. Overall, this thing has turned me into a mechanical keyboard convert. I cant wait to try out some new keycaps and really personalize it to be my own.

I got this keyboard for work, I like the mechanical ones and this one isnt super freaking loud. It also has a number pad on it but its more compact thank goodness. I never needed all those extra keys. The only thing that will take a bit to get used to is the delete key. You have to press FN and the del but to complete the delete but hell it might save some people lol. I recommend this and I normally use a black widow for gaming

This one’s tricky. I love it, but it’s tricky. It’s amazing to use — unlike so many affordable/entry-level keyboards which have a bit of a hollow or rattly sound to them, this sounds great right out of the box. I swapped in some thicker-walled XDA profile keycaps to see what would happen, and suddenly it’s like I never knew what good clacky sounds were until today. The brown switches on my model are what I always expect and never get: just enough of a tactile bump to keep me interested, but not enough to distract me. There’s enough metal in here for the unit to more than hold its own against pricier keyboards like the Drop CTRL (and it’s not nearly so fussy, but this isn’t about the CTRL). That said, the layout is a little cramped for my tastes (and this is more a me thing than an issue with the product, so I’m not dropping the rating). There’s no separation whatsoever between the number pad and the main body of the keyboard, so if you’re used to TKL or full-sized boards, this is going to trip you up at first. Get this if you can deal with having your numpad mashed up against the arrow keys, you want a solid hefty board with excellent build quality, and you struggle with the acoustics of most budget boards.

I had my friends 13 year old son test this for me. He loved it. He recently put together his own gaming rig and grand parents bought him his own mechanical keyboard. He said he prefers this. Mechanical keyboards can cost easily a few hundred dollars and so this represents great value. The great thing about the keyboard is you can remove the keys and clean or even replace a key if needed. The action was positive. The lighting really good and the overall experience was extremely positive. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

This keyboard is a great starter mechanical keyboard. I love the compact layout to save the extra space on my desk. The RGB options of the keyboard seems endless. I have had so much enjoyment out of just watching the different patterns and being able to easily adjust them to my mood is great.

This is a great budget keyboard with tons of potential.- I love building and remodeling keyboards and this is a great keyboard to start with. It has a ton of customizable rgb lighting sequences, has hot swappable key switches, and has a removable usb c plug. For the price its hard to find a keyboard with all of these features that isn’t just a cheap piece of garbage. After a tear down i have seen that the pcb is labeled well, all of the parts are of great quality and they even have the switches and stablizers pre lubed from the factory.
