Things we like

  1. The first thing we would consider is the price. This is a budget keyboard and we think in this budget this might be one of the best keyboard in the market.
  2. 80 million keystrokes guaranteed with 2 years of warranty, that have to count in its favor. There are users who are using the same keyboard even after 2 years without any problem.
  3. Another good thing is the cable routing options of the keyboard. You do not need to hassle from PC back-end for the headphone jack. Just plug-in the headphone at the side of the keyboard. This also helps to extend the headphones wire length.

Things we don’t like

We haven’t found any. Please be our guest to put some on the comment box. We will add it here.

Here is a video about how customization can be done on the lighting effect.

The keys and the ease of use is excellent reported from the users. We have confirmation that even after 2 years of use the spring of the keys are still working just fine.

This is an excellent choice for professional gamers or enthusiasts. You can compare only with each styles itself, not with other keyboards. Please do check the styles on amazon before you order. The sound of the clicky key would definitely gives you happiness from your first use.
