Customer Reviews
It was either this keyboard or Razer BlackWidow V3 Tenkeyless. Wasn't sure Razer lubed all their switches. Saw teardown videos of this keyboard to confirm it was all lubed up.
It's got some heft. I think it's sound profile falls near the thocky end of the scale. The space bar has considerable resonance on the MDF tabletop of my desk. That led me to order a felt KEEBMAT™. Backlight is on the PCB. Not the switches. Legends on the keycaps aren't shine-through. I intend to learn typing without looking at the keyboard. So the backlights serve only an aesthetic purpose for me. Preprogrammed key combinations offer limited control of the backlights and sidelights. The VIA web interface gives complete control of the backlights but not the sidelights. The knob is also well built and offers stepped control of volume out of the box. I guess it can be remapped to some other function from VIA. The button on it required more force to actuate than I would like. I have loudness equalization enabled on Windows and don't see myself using the knob in the future. So I have replaced it with the Pause key using one of the four spare switches and the keycap that comes bundled with the keyboard. There's a keycap-switch puller tool as well.
The Razer keyboard would have costed 500 less. But this keyboard is totally worth it for me.
