“My son loves it. Upgrade from an implosion cap version. Not used to the US layout but he it learning some python. Might as well use a US Keyboard”

Critique
“Looks great and sounds amazing but keys gets stuck/don’t work or double press too often. When I remove the key caps to clean, it still doesn’t fix the problem. Example, my 7 key doesn’t work when pressed and my G key when pressed wrotes two g’s instead of one.”

Praise

Richard B.Verified buyer· via Keychron
Critique
“The Numpad enter never worked. The L is really hard to get to register. The base bends like paper and overall its really cheap quality.”
