“Looks good, sounds good, preformed good but the software is a bit slow to recognise the keyboard and one of the clips on the back is a bit broken, it is hard to click and is loud”

“Very high quality, nice keyboard. Packaging is superb. Only the keycaps feel like they could be a little higher quality. But i'm going to get different anyways.”
