> 3 daySo, I’m not a gamer. I work in an office for 55-60 hours per week for an online retailer as a tech agent. That entire time, I’m typing; online communication, chats, emails, program commands, etc. Before this, I used a Razer Cynosa Chroma. Used it for a year until I couldn’t read the keys from such heavy use. I picked this up as I wanted to switch to mechanical. I now had 4 months of long, hard time on the Vulcan and I love this keyboard. After going mechanical, you’ll never go back. So much better to type on and the brown switches are not too loud and are super clicky. The keys are low-profile and responsive, which improves my typing speed and reduces strain in your wrists (I experienced this with taller keyboards). They are also mappable, so I can assign shortcuts for all my programs! The RGB is very grown-up looking (not like Razer’s over the top lighting which belongs in a 14-year-olds bedroom) and I love the AIMO lighting. Also, Roccat Swarm is simple and really easy to use. After putting this thing through the ringer for 12 hour shifts day in and out, it performs fantastic. Plenty of people tell me they love my keyboard too as it looks awesome! After almost 1000 hours spent typing on this keyboard, all I can say is just buy it.

> 3 dayThe reviews are true. Read them very closely. The paint on the keycaps will eventually peel and as far as I know there is no way of getting replacements. I love the design of the keyboard and the Titan switches feel buttery smooth but just the bad design of the keycaps was enough to drop the rating on this one. You can replace the keycaps with a generic pbt keycap but that would ruin the look of the board. Sorry Roccat but this one was a flop

> 3 dayThe feel, look, and performance of this keyboard is just solid all around. I love me an RGB keyboard, and this is by far the brightest and most colorful Ive ever owned. The keys themselves feel nice and smooth and the feel while typing or gaming is smooth and responsive. The open key concept make the keyboard not only look nice but easier to dust off and clean should it get dirty. And lastly the wrist rest on this is magnetic instead of the usual plastic locks. Making it impossible to break. Overall I absolutely love this keyboard, ill update after a few months of use about the key paint chipping off

> 3 dayI recently bought a low profile keyboard and I couldnt stop making typos. I swapped it for this one and now I type like a pro. The color scheme and aesthetics are really cool and Ive paired it with a mouse from ROCCAT as well. Well built. I just started using it yesterday so if things change, Ill come back to update.

> 3 dayMuy bueno, lo único malo que le encontré es que suena más que otros con teclas marrones.

> 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.

> 3 dayI bought this refurbished and it works awesomely. Software needed for any special features, but its really easy to setup. I would have given it 5 stars, but since it was refurbed, the Windows key doesnt work. Im sure its a mechanical issue, but I got to dock it a star for it.

> 3 daySo you get the full picture, since 2015 I have been using an MK710 for all my computing needs. But the reality is, in that timeframe, keyboard tech has made leaps and bounds forward in terms of comfort, usability, and features. After months of research, I settled on the Roccat Vulcan 122. While I previously considered staying within the Logitech ecosystem, the reality is their keyboard dont have the best reputation when it comes to mechanical keys. So I decided to branch out. The Vulcan ended up meeting all of my needs both in terms of functionality and style. Ultimately, the feel of these keys was exactly what I felt was always missing with the MK710. While the MK710 was comfortable enough to type on, it wasnt satisfying to type on for extended periods. The build quality of the Roccat over other similarly priced keyboards is phenomenal. Getting an aluminum plate over simple plastic is almost unheard of in this price-range, particularly for a full-sized keyboard. The LED lighting is easy to adjust and, thanks to each key have its own LED, evenly lit across the board. Its also extremely easy to clean, which was a constant struggle with the MK710. I could go on about its comfort and overall design, but that is more subjective than anything else. For me, the low-profile nature of the keyboard is fantastic. I also consider the design to be attractive without being garish or too gamer-y feeling. Even without any lighting effects on, the design comes off as sleek and modern. Overall, I am extremely pleased with the keyboard. I dont know if it will match the longevity of the MK710 (which is still technically going strong), but given then build quality, I certainly hope it does.

> 3 daySo the board itself is pretty good despite there being a considerable amount of space between each key, which is a minor and subjective critcism, what isnt either minor nor subjective is the fact that the entire legend of the keyboard for each key, is some kind of sprayed on material coating. These are not quallity keycaps and as noted by MANY reviews, the spray on legend simply crumbles off, mine within less than two weeks. Frankly this is unacceptable at this type of price, and basically negates any positive this board has going for it, which is a shame because aside form this massive oversight, this is such a great looking and distictive board. Item is in the return process. Basically DO NOT BUY this board, admire from afar, its not a very qualitly-focused item, it seems to be designed enitrely around the show factor. Im super disappointed.
