“Had the keyboard since August. Dealt with the same issue as another reviewer of keys double registering but dealt with it. PCB died today. 3 stars because everything else was fantastic.”

“Love the sound and feel. Thr kickstand is cool too. Only thing is I wish there were more options for keycap colors, the red doesn't match my stuff.”
