Bought this for writing compact and I love it.

It’s a good keyboard

Compact and made sturdy. Great buy!

Has a fast response time and works for gaming and sounds great.

I havent used a mechanical keyboard since the mid-nineties, so I cant compare this to current mechanical keyboards. All I know is that I like the sound and feel of this one! On my membrane keyboards, every stroke feels like a question - Did it work? - but on this one every stroke feels confident and decisive. This might be a gateway keyboard for me, because I bought the one with brown switches but Im already curious about how the other colors would feel. The size is perfect on my desk, and I appreciate not having space taken up by a number pad that I never use. It took a few minutes to get used to a new layout for placement of controls like the sound volume, play/pause, and print screen, but Im happy to report that theres nothing essential missing. Im keeping the cheat sheet of commands under the keyboard for now. This is my first true white keyboard, and it makes a nice backdrop for the colored LED lights. The color order from left to right is red-orange-green-blue-purple, and that cant be changed, but it is possible to control brightness and pattern of movement. Im not a fan of moving lights when Im trying to type so Im happy with the nice even glow of backlit keys at medium brightness.

Im using this keyboard in a dental office clinical setting so its not being used for gaming or constant typing. The white color gives it a clean/sterile appearance appropriate for a medical or dental office. I have no need for the LED lighting so wont be able to comment on that although it appears to have a set pattern & not fully customizable except for 3 levels of brightness. The keyboard is very compact so saves lots of room on the countertop but it is fairly thick so you will definitely need a wrist rest if youre going to be using it for more than an hour or two. Keystroke travel is deep (probably twice as deep as those on a laptop) and the red switches are supposed to be quiet but you can still hear the clicking as you type which may be objectionable in the bedroom for some who are light sleepers. The compactness & removable USB cable makes it convenient for travel but it requires a learning curve since most keys have multiple functions. I wish the labeling on the keys is more legible or at least easier on the eyes. Either make it darker or color code the different functions on each key for easier typing. I believe it will get easier with use and practice.

He was os nice give him a raise

This is a really nice, especially for the price, entry-level intro to mechanical keyboards. You cant change the color of the lights which is a bit sad but the keyboard still looks great. the keys all work without issue and they have a really nice feel to them when you type. One thing to mention if you want to play around with replacing the keycaps is that since this is a 60% keyboard, if you get a regular keycap kit it wont have keys that fit a handful of the smaller-sized keys, most will work without issue although you will also lose the shortcut symbols that this keyboard comes with. Overall very happy with this as an intro model to mechanical keyboards.

The keyboard I had prior to this one was a 60% and very clacky, but very good, my main issue was that it didnt have dedicated arrow keys. When I saw this (I would say, 62%) keyboard with arrows and quieter red switches, I thought what the heck, lets give it a shot. I have to say Im pleasantly surprised. Im not a huge lighting effects guy, but these are subtle enough and easily controllable that it doesnt bother me, and having it backlit is nice. Comes with a little instruction page and a keycap remover tool so you can swap keycaps or clean the keyboard.

This company makes some exceptional keyboards at the price. If youre looking for a small form factor keyboard with mechanical switches that wont brake the bank, these are the keyboards to get. They can be a really good starting point for people looking to get into mechanical keyboards in general.
