“deep, refined typing sound with a soft gasket-mounted feel that makes every keystroke satisfying. For its price, it's an impressive all-rounder with excellent acoustics, tri-mode connectivity, and a huge battery that easily punches above its class.”

“Totally enjoying this keyboard. Weight gives a quality feel. Love north facing RGB and effects. Price is in a sweet spot. Happy that I didn’t allow lack of reviews to affect my decision. Highly recommended.”
