21-11-2024I hope you know your keyboard. I type a lot but I am not a typist. The letters on the most used keys are gone! It took over a year for it to happen and for the price, I really can’t complain. It’s comfortable to use and I use it for work 3 to 5 days a week. It was recommended to me and I have recommended it to others with no complaints so far.

15-11-2024I got this keyboard to replace the one I have been using for work that was getting worn out. I type most of the day so was pleased to see how sturdy the keyboard is. The back plate is metal, and the keys are shaped for easy reach and comfortable typing. The colored background of the keyboard and letters is adjustable but seems a bit dim on the letters. Its not an issue for me as I am a touch-typist, but it may be a problem for those who have to visually find the keys. I am very happy with the quality and features, especially for the price. I would recommend this product.

> 3 dayI bought this knowing it was cheaply-made, because all I wanted was a cheap keyboard. Its not that Im surprised Im having issues, its more that Im having such severe issues so immediately. Since the first day of using this keyboard Ive had issues with random, inexplicable, constant key-presses that require fiddling around in weird ways to correct (holding the key down, yoinking out the key in question, prodding the key input pad with a knife, etc). The most recent was my E key deciding to spam itself ad infinitum while I was in the middle of some rather urgent conversation. I havent gotten the keyboard dirty; the issues were in fact present on the first day of usage, so I cant blame that. Aside from the random infinite key press issue, though, Id say it works pretty great; the lights are wonderful (though I wasnt exactly focused on those when purchasing the item) and the keys type smoothly. But I did nearly send a 4,300-character message consisting entirely of the number five because of this keyboard, and it has a fondness for randomly activating my browsers bookmarks shortcut on loop until I press the activating keys hard enough to convince it to stop. Id say its a great purchase if youre waiting for the funds to buy a keyboard that isnt as frustrating.

> 3 dayI havent been using it for very long, but I do like it so far. Once you get the hang of it, its not bad. The keys are clicky but not obnoxious (which, I like clicky keys anyway), and theyre soft, if that makes any sense. Im not vernacular savvy so bear with me. The brightness is a little dimmer than I expected, but I guess I also wouldnt want blinding LEDs on my keyboard either. I do think its a little weird that there are only 3 rainbow presets and that you cant choose single colors, but thats fine. I do have a couple of tips for anyone buying it though: READ THE INSTRUCTIONS. Its not like its rocket science to get it going, but there are a few key combos that you need to be familiar with. Some of them are self explanatory (like the page up/down buttons have the +/- sign on it for brightness), but there are others, like the SL key, that need a little more explanation. Pressing the SL key on its own will change the rainbow preset. But if you press FN+SL then itll enter the breathing mode. And scroll lock is another key combo rather than just being its own button, FN+F11. EDIT: I think Im personally going to return it. Its fine, but the spacebar tends to skip a little, and overall its not exactly what I expected. Its still an alright keyboard, but its just not for me.

> 3 dayAlright, either the Matrix is messing with my mind or Ive genuinely had this for a long time. I remember order this like 1-2 months ago but my order says Ive had this keyboard for almost 2 years. I dont remember getting this keyboard that long ago but Ill tell you my experience. Its been used to say the least and only up until I did a new computer build did it start going haywire on me. Im not able to use Shift+T on this keyboard and this was the first problem (other than the paint of the key caps rubbing off) in the span of 2 years. To say the least, I just ordered two more of these and am currently leaving this review after looking up the order date on it. It lasted almost twice as long as my $200 keyboard that I got before it and I gotta say that I got a lot more value out of it.

> 3 dayIts almost like its on a sleep timer . If you dont use it for a few it shuts off . I have reached out to the manufacturer about this to find out if I have a defective one or if its normal for this model. No response so Im returning it. If you dont care that it shuts off randomly , it is a nice keyboard . Its quite , has a small footprint and when it is lit up , it gets all the keys pretty good . I used mine for over a week thinking I could get used to it shutting off but no , I need mine to stay on or have a way to stop the sleep timer if that is whats happening .

> 3 dayNPET K10 Backlit Gaming Keyboard, Black, Purchased 10/22, Reviewed 10/22/2022 I purchased the K10 budget membrane faux mechanical keyboard. I was searching for a backup budget keyboard because my main PC keyboard gave up the ghost after 7 years. I needed a backup so I could continue working from home, while I waited for the new replacement keyboard to arrive next week. 1st impression: when I grabbed the Amazon package at my front door, I thought, Wow, this is a heavy keyboard. Opening the package, I was impressed with its mechanical keyboard look, and it looked like a quality keyboard but at a budget price of $20. Of course, as soon as I set the K10 on the desk, I started testing the keypress feedback, noise, and how typing felt. Key travel felt a tiny bit stiff but still good for this price point. Any keying noise was surprisingly low. Plugging in the K10s braided USB cable, the first con is revealed: the cable is too short at 67 long, another 6 to 12 inches would be better. The boards RGB lights lit up, and my Windows 10 Pro PC had no issues with the new K10. The next thing I noticed, which is not necessarily a negative, is that the keys are smaller than typical full-sized keyboard keys. [Update edit 4/12/23: I later compared my full size keyboard and the new replacement keyboard I had ordered, and the keypad surface area is the same. (What was different was the K10s top surface has a slightly deeper concave indentation, so the feel is slightly different.)] I am a touch typist capable of 60+wpm so the size of the keypad felt a little off; however, with use, it would feel fine. With nearly 40 years of using and owning many computers and their keyboards, touch typing resulted in some initial missed direct keypad hits, but adjusting was easy. One additional observation: right after startup, a distinct odor was coming from the board, sort of an electrical and plastic overheating smell (note, I had the RGB lights off). After about 20 minutes, it faded, and I havent noticed it since. [edit 4/12/23 I have been using nearly 5 months most days on my Hosting Music pc and no issues at all.] What does a touch typist think of the key typing on the K10? • Sore fingers. My fingers were tired after 1 hour, and after 2 hours, they were sore. The problem is how I type, pushing down slightly harder than the average typist, who maybe learned to type on a mushy membrane keyboard. I learned on IBM Selectrics, which required a slightly heavier key press. The keystroke travel is higher or longer on the floating keys of the K10 than on most keyboards at 3.6mm, so I have to push further down for it to bottom out the key travel, and if I am typing hard and fast, my fingers are sore. I tested where the action point in the key travel seemed to be; its either halfway or slightly higher. So if I type with a lighter keystroke and try to avoid the key bottoming out, there should be less soreness. A lighter touch is possible, and the keys feel good as you type along and shouldnt cause sore fingers. I would like the stroke to be a little softer or less stiff. [edit 4/12/23 After some practice, I havent had any soreness issues.] • Noise, a comment about YouTube reviewers Any YT review doing their keyboard review on a wooden desk or a hard desk surface with no large mouse pad that cushions and accommodates both the keyboard and mouse is only testing the keyboards resonance with the hard desk, and that is likely 2x or 3x louder than typing with a keyboard on a desk size keyboard - mouse pad. Typing noise on the K10 sitting on a 32 x 12 x 2-3mm thick pad was very low. •No movement, the K10 on my full-size keyboard/mouse pad does not slide or move at all. The K10s weight and three rubber grip pads on the front bottom of the chassis, plus the two pull-out feet, securely hold the board with no movement. • Key wobble was not noticeable, very slight on the space bar. • RGB lights, are not my thing, but if there was an RGB selection that lit only the key letters and numbers, that would be ideal. However, its not an option. I have about 27 days to decide if I should keep the K10 or return it to Amazon. Im pretty sure its a keeper. [Update: 4/12/23, I kept the K10 and use it almost daily. For the price and for my type of usage, I would recommend the K10. Would it be a good gaming keyboard? I do play games, I tried it for one game, and it was fine, I have never owned an expensive gaming board or typed on one, so I cannot compare. ]

> 3 daySome of the lettering/symbols are worn off. As if it was a used keyboard. Functional still but this was rather annoying.
