    A decent budget keyboard
    Great keyboard for the price. I bought it with a small discount which makes it even better. Quite sturdy keyboard with sort of rubber coated keys (don't know how to describe them other way). Pretty quiet. The illumination, on closer inspection, is above average as the symbols are dimmed a bit. I believe it's because of the membrane. On the whole, a decent piece.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Quieter Than Anticipated
    Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2023
    Great product; looks great and is much quieter than I'd anticipated for having such large keys. It reminds me of the old keyboards I used in typing class from the early 90s. Make no mistake, the keys are nowhere near low profile and they DO make more sound than my low profile keyboard did. So if sound is going to be an issue, maybe look elsewhere. Also, the changing of the colored lights requires a software upload. I use this keyboard for work and cannot upload software; I had to upload the software to my personal laptop, pick a color and hope it stayed. Good news: color stayed once connected to my work computer. The only caveat is that I'll have to disconnect from my work pc and connect to my personal pc again if I want to change colors. Regardless of my personal dislike, it's a good keyboard and I enjoy the backlight.

    love it. it is comfortable to type and it is not as noisy as my previous mechanical keyboard. works well with my Macbook. i dont really do gaming on the pc, but appreciate the software to upload games captured direct to youtube.
    the only thing I cant figure yet out is to link spotify to the keyboard shortcut. it is now linked to the stock music software.
    overall happy with the purchase. i might get one more for the office!
