ROCCAT Vulcan TKL Pro Tenkeyless Linear Optical Titan Switch PC Gaming Keyboard with Per-key AIMO RGB Lighting, Anodized Aluminum Top Plate, and Detachable USB-C Cable, Black

Highly recommend. Brings the VSM!!!

I have owned several other top end mechanical keyboards. I do more typing than gaming and the keystrokes are buttery smooth. The build quality is Solid and leans towards many good years ahead. The RGB lighting is amazing. My only complaint is the Swarm Software. I hope Roccat can make a more user friendly version as this was just a nightmare to even open. But once I got the ball rolling Im glad I didnt return it. I am in Love with my New Roccat

Concerning the ROCCAT Vulcan TKL Pro: I am downgrading my review from 5 stars to 2. Why? In trying setup a default illumination scheme, I found this paragraph: Without Swarm you are still able to use your devices, but you are missing out on features such as illumination controls, re-assigning keys and buttons, customizing sensitivities or creating macros and profiles. A custom illumination (for say WASD etc. keys) can be setup only with Swarm running. Thats fine. If Swarm is killed/ended, the keyboard illumination (at least) persists. Thats good. But after power-cycling the keyboard, it is again necessary to run Swarm to reinstate the setup. Thats not OK. So its not possible setup the keyboard on Windows and then move the keyboard over to a Mac or Linux system to at least get a preferred illumination because Swarm doesnt runs on the latter systems and the illumination doesnt survive a power-cycle. This also means you cant use it on a Steam Deck (which is Linux). Thumbs down. I like the keyboard, but I dont really like the default animations nor the solid green. I can somewhat understand requiring Swarm to have keystroke programmable macros, but custom illumination should not require Swarm. I want a keyboard with persistent and default illuminations that will work on any computer; not having this is a deal breaker for me. There are other decent keyboards that do what this one does. Roccat support is terrible. In trying to contact Roccat, I notice that the support.roccat.con website is plagued with SSL certificate problems. So you have to either allow invalid SSL certificates or use lame browsers to view the support page.

Great product and the perfect size!

I have lots of mechanical keyboards and was interested in this one because of the optical switches. I was surprised that the keyboard had such a nice feel since it had ABS keycaps. I do really like the minimal keycap design in general, and I imagine it would be even better with PBS. Some of the lighting partially died within the first couple of weeks, so there might be some manufacturing issues. The lighting requires the software to be running, so unfortunately you cant save lighting setting to the keyboard (this is sadly true of even the most expensive mechanical RGB keyboards though so I wont fault them for it).

This was worth the money. My son love this keyboard for his game

I decided to build my own instead but good quality for the price!

but press feedback is relatively loose

Wonderful keyboard, switch feel is great and profile is flat like a g915 but with a slightly higher height that is somewhere in between a 915 and a ducky one mini. The keycaps will be a sticking point for some as they are not pbt but I work in healthcare and my hands are typically super dry so these provide more grip that is in between a traditional abs and pbt cap. Switch feel is wonderful as well, and at least on par with razr and steel series optical switches but they feel the most like a cherry red out of any that I have used. Overall it’s a wonderful keyboard and I almost forgot to mention build quality seems good as well for the price, not all plastic like a ducky and not all aluminum like a drop, which makes sense since it’s priced smack in the middle of those two.

Love this keyboard!! I got the Vulcan TKL Pro, so it is more sensitive than the only mechanical. It is very very sensitive, like you dont even need to press a key fully for it to register. That could be a good or bad thing depending on your preference. I love that I can just quickly type without pressing all the way down. I downloaded the Roccat Swarm app to do lighting and updates, for what thats worth. Volume nob worked right out of the box, so no need to set anything up really. The keyboard is very compact and lower profile. Just overall feels great and probably the best keyboard I have used, keeping in mind that I have never used one that costs more than 50 bucks.
