“Amazing keyboard, via support could be better, but it works! i love the knob, its so nice. this has to be the worst financial decision ive ever made and i dont regret it”
“The keyboard has been great but when I received it a couple keys were broken. I had to glue the inside connector back together as it had broken apart. Otherwise the keyboard has functions very well.”
