    One of the hardest things about shopping for good mechanical keyboards are the outrageous price tags. This keyboard however gives you a great taste of a high quality keyboard for a tiny fraction of the price Keys feel almost just like cherry max blues The lighting options are great and fun Fits any standard cherry keycaps (although a bit loose) Good build quality Love the size, big enough to have the necessary keys and not leave anything out, but small enough to leave you some good desk space. Can’t recommend this keyboard enough, already gotten a few compliments on it and couldn’t be more happy for the money I spent!

    Im rating this keyboard at 2 stars because it didnt last more than 3 months. This review is for a white keyboard with Red switches. I also own one of these with Blue switches. What I really want does not exist, so this is a close second. Pros: Key face symbols are larger than normal and readible from a greater distance Brightly backlit so it can be seen in full light during daytime. Multiple backlight colors to suit your needs (including white which is what I wanted). Five brightness levels (picture is on highest setting). Mini layout design; i.e. no goofy numpad on the right side that nobody uses anymore. All keys are full size or larger, including arrow keys (which is a must). Wired USB connection with long cable. Red Cherry key switches so no loud clicking sounds and smooth presses (blue switches are loud). Column of page control keys on the right side of the keyboard. Cons: Non functional after less than 3 months of use Missing CTRL key on right side of Space bar. (Would prefer similar layout to SIIG 312, Perixx 407W, but neither of those are backlit). Not a big fan of mechnical switches in general, but Red switches are most tolerable for daily use. Dont like the gaps in between the function keys in the top row, but that is the traditional layout from 40 years ago. Misc: I wish the SIIG 312 came in white/silver with a backlight; I would buy 20 of them. My perfect keyboard wishlist... Last for several years, not just 3 months! Mini keyboard (no numpad on right side) Full size laptop key tops including arrow keys (seriously, whats up with the mini-arrow keys? = unusable for man hands) Membrane key mechanism like SiiG 312, i.e. not mechanical switches White/silver in color with high color contrast key labels Brightly backlit in white color (other colors are fine, but must have white) USB wired Page control keys on far right key column No gaps in the bottom row (space bar row) or top row (function key row) Such a keyboard does not exist. :( Maybe SIIG will read this and modify the almost perfect JK-US0312 to include white color with a backlight.

    El producto cumplió con las espectativas, fue un regalo y quede bien con la persona. Increíble la cantidad de variaciones de iluminación led que se le puede configurar, y lo mejor que se pueden cambiar tanto las teclas como los switches.

    If you are buying this keyboard for cheap 75% clicky-key action and some nice RGB, this is a good choice--4/5 stars. Solid plate, small form factor, thin bezel--just a nice board. Be warned, youre buying into some serious click here; of clicky switches, outemu blues are considered louder than their Cherry or Gateron counterparts. Some may be disappointed by the lack of so-many-million color shades, or such-and-such color option, but for half the price of a typical 75% keyboard this seems alright. However, I bought this to change out the switches--like it advertised. Since this is a DIY board with no soldering, my ergo clears should plug in, right? Ah, no. Not quite. Two big issues: First, about 15 of the original outemu blue switches were solidly stuck into the board. No soldering, but there was a weak glue holding some of them in. After breaking through the switches housings from pulling so hard, I opened up the case. Careful prying with a tiny screwdriver managed to bust them out of the pcb. Second: the copper posts on the Cherry switches are too big for the holes on the pcb. Outemu switches should be fine--just plug in with no problem. To get my Cherry switches to fit, I grabbed a nail file and filed every.single.switch. After 4 hours filing all the copper posts to skinner versions of themselves, the Cherry switches could fit. But after all that, I managed to get my 75% keyboard with ergo clears and the neat semiotic standard keycaps from SP. To recap: if you want a very clicky and affordable keyboard, this is a strong contender. If you want to change out switches, you are in for some extra work.

    this was my first gaming keyboard even though i am well informed on the industry i decided to take a chance as it was affordable, the keyboard has blue switches which makes it very loud i was aware of this and its fine for me but with my next keyboard i will look for something more quiet. Overall its a good mid-range keyboard and you get what you pay for.

    Ive been using this keyboard for a few weeks now, but with increased frequency in the past couple weeks since Ive been working from home due to the pandemic. I do not game on my PC so I cannot comment on how well it works for that. The keys are very satisfying to type on and give a nice clicking sound. The keyboard lights up in a variety of colors. There are many lighting settings to choose from (so hard to decide!). The base is quite heavy, so it doesnt shift around even when vigorously typing. The only complaint that I have is that I dont love the font used for the keys (I would have preferred a simpler, less stylized font). Overall though, I am quite pleased with my purchase!

    I tried very hard to enjoy this product, but I had to return it because of 1) the awkward Shift key placement and 2) noise from typing. Because this is a smaller, economic-sized keyboard the size of the right shift key was compromised, and while I liked that the keyboard took up less space, I kept pressing something else. The keys themselves arent clacky like blue switches, but theres a reverb feedback from hitting the keycap against the metallic board.I thought I could ignore it, but in the end I couldnt. Overall, as much as I enjoyed its prettiness (lights are really cool and the boards white so it doesnt blend in with all the other electronics on my desk), I had to return it. Recommended if youre into flashy keyboards and dont mind constant small noises.

    Didnt know what to expect ordering this keyboard, after seeing the large variety of 60%/ similar looking keyboards for sale. But this one truly, truly feels worth the price. Absolutely beautiful RGB LED backlighting, small size and lightweight, and tested 100% compatible with our extra Cherry MX style replacement keycaps. Lighting effects are fun and all the main effects are there, FN hot keys work and its easy to remember the important ones you use often. Unlike most of the other small 60% size boards missing the F keys, having them with this board is really great, and doesnt add much to the overall size whatsoever! Great keyboard, and if it stays around this price I might purchase another for work!

    I was pretty pumped up to find a mechanic keyboard for this price, so I decided to give it a shot, and went ahead and bought it. For any of those interested, I went for the brown switches. Ive had it for six months at this point, and have been using it as my main keyboard for all that time. When I bought it, I knew I had to keep my expectations as low as the price tag is, so I was pleasantly surprised when I received it. My first impressions were pretty good, with my only complaint with it at the time being the keycaps. They are big enough to put a strain on my wrists when typing for long sessions, which I have to do as I am in college, and constanly typing reports or essays, as well as code. This was solved with a wrist rest, and I foolishly thought that the worst had passed. Oh, how wrong I was. I play videogames during my free time, and tend to use the WASD keys the most. Well, two months after receiving the keyboard, I noticed my W key would stop working when I was running or walking forwards in a game at random times, making me have to press it again to continue moving. At first this happened sporadically, a few times a week at most. But over the next few weeks this happened more and more, and not just during game time, but while I was typing stuff. I would try and type words with the letter W in it, and the letter would not appear until I practically smashed the key. At first it was a minor inconvenience, but quickly became a major issue that disrupted my workflow. Finally after two and a half weeks of having this problem, I thought enough is enough and went ahead and replaced the faulty switch with one of the 5 spares they send with the keyboard. As soon as I did that, the problems stopped. For around 3 weeks everything worked fine again, until it didnt. It was the A key this time. Same exact pattern. Random switch malfunctions that got more and more frequent. This time I didnt wait, after a week of having problems with the A key I went ahead and swapped the switch for a new one. Everything worked fine again. For a month, give or take. Same issue, this time the S key. Waited a few days to see if it was a fluke (spoiler alert: it wasnt), then replaced it, only for the D key to start acting up a few days later, so I also had to replace that one. It took only a week from that point for my W key to start malfunctioning again, and there went my last replacement switch. Its been roughly one and a half months since that last replacement, and in that time, the W, A, and S keys are once more malfunctioning constantly, with only the D key seemingly working fine (hope I didnt jinx it by saying that). And before you ask, I checked all of the malfunctioning switches with a multimeter right before writing this review, because I had a hunch. And guess what, I was right. The switches work just fine. I am sure the problem Ive had could be solved by just soldering the switches to the PCB, as Im certain that it comes down to the switches loosing contact with the PCB because of poor switch holders, but my question is, why is this keyboard hot swappable in the first place? This keyboard has 82 switches, and a decent enough switch pack, like a 90 switch gateron red pack will set you back $25, which is more than half the price of the keyboard. Meanwhile, if you go for a 90 switch pack of CherryMX reds, thats $50, 10 more than the keyboard itself. For those prices you may as well buy a fully assembled 70 or 90 dollar keyboard, and probably get more out of it. What Im trying to say here is that theres no point in upgrading the switches in this keyboard, and so the hot swap feature is completely useless, and makes this keyboard a joke. In summary, if you dont mind soldering the switches to the PCB right after pulling the keyboard out of the box, then go for it, but otherwise dont bother.

    I feel like this is a great and cheap gaming keyboard, the only thing is that you cannot choose the colors yourself they have a number of different setting for the colors already programed. But otherwise it works great!!
