“I love the sound, the keyboard was shipped fast, but i have found some of the keys have input issues at times where it doesn't register the key being pushed”
“I received an informative sms two months ago that the keyboard is arriving, It has still not arrived.”

“I realy like this keyboard. I feel is harder to make typos compared to the K3 v2. I decided to go with the K1 Pro instead of the K3 Pro and it's going to to take time to adjust to the new layout, but the feeling and shape of the keys is definitely better.”
