Reviews

Took a bit to get used to from my previous keyboard as this one is a bit bigger and slightly differently placed keycaps, but a really great keyboard.

This Keyboard Has Changed

I bought one of these a few years ago for at home. I'm not a gamer, I'm a programmer, and the light up keys and colors are great for typing in the dark. Now that I'm working again, I bought the same keyboard to use at the office, but it isn't the same. The keys have become quieter, which is a good thing, but the backlight on the new board is feeble compared to my old one. In particular, the red is so anemic that when I set it to white, it looks cyan and yellow looks green. The magenta looks purple which is nice but I'd rather have all three color channels be bright and strong like the first one I bought. I would rate 5 stars if the backlight were still as good as it used to be.

Not a Bad Keyboard, Software could be improved

I'll start by saying this keyboard is fairly comfortable to type on and use for gaming. The keys have enough give that they aren't hard to press while also not picking up keypresses that I don't intend.

However, my main gripe is that the software will allow me to assign a macro to any key on the keyboard *except* the six keys that are specifically meant to be macro keys. To assign to them, I'm forced to use the Rec button. This seems like a really bad miss, or the keyboard was designed poorly and so the G keys aren't able to be accessed from the software. Either way that's the primary thing that keeps me from giving this device a better review.
