    This keyboard has some advantages over Das Keyboard for word processing
  

*by I***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2014*

First a comment about mechanical keyboards in general, they work better for fast typing. You can prove their utility to yourself by merely opening notepad or other word processing program and typing at maximum speed the single word "were" - without the quotation marks. This particular word can be typed in a single coordinated drop of three fingers of the left hand immediately followed by a stroke of the long finger. You just can't consistently do it on a membrane keyboard because the keys don't fire exactly when they're supposed to and there is a process called 'key blanking' in the cheap keyboards where the board deliberately ignores keystrokes made too closely together. If you can't make your left hand work fast enough to jam an OEM membrane keyboard you can probably do so with the word "there", which is started by a nearly simultaneous attack of the two index fingers producing "th" every time on a mechanical keyboard and about half the time on a membrane keyboard. Or if you have a two handed password that you've typed so many times it is burned into your subconscious, this would be the word to use to see how much faster it will go into a mechanical keyboard. Regardless of how good the keyboard, there is still a speed limit if one is using a cloud based word processing program such as the dog of a program I am on for eight hours per day and which sometimes gets as far as 20 or 30 characters behind.This is a review for the CM Storm QuickFire Rapid - Limited Edition Tenkeyless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard with Cherry MX Green switches. For my typing needs I've been using a Das Keyboard S (old style) with Cherry MX blue keys for about a year and find it the best keyboard since the old IBM Selectric typewriter. But I find the CM Storm has some distinct advantages. It has a couple of minor disadvantages.Advantages:* Tenkeyless - for typing (fiction drafts - an endless chore) the ten key pad stuck on the side of a keyboard gets in the way of my coffee cup. This keyboard is shorter than the Das Keyboard and easier to manage on the desktop.* The Cherry MX green keys available on the CM Storm have heavier springs. This allows heavy pounding, heavier than its closest rival the Cherry MX blue keys which are the best available on Das Keyboard as of the time of this writing. According to Wikipedia the Cherry MX blue springs are 60cN and the Cherry MX green springs are 80cN. For anyone who was raised on manual typewriters or who likes to pound keys this heavy feel is the most natural feel. The keys cushion the finger tips better than lighter keys, which bottom out with more of a jolt. Keys feel a bit like the old IBM Selectrics.*This keyboard gives the best tactile and sound feedback for us old farts who grew up pounding a manual Remington or Underwood. Keyboards using Cherry MX blue are definitely good but are second best due to the less heavy springs.* Bigger brighter laser etched letters on the keys than the Das Keyboard. Once you get started typing you ignore them, but it helps a lot if you're on the phone typing one handed or have to stop and look at the ~ or the } key. You can get a

    with blank key caps, but I don't consider this a good option, due to my recurring need to type while on the phone. There is also another brand, Keycool, which can be bought with LED backlit keys.

     That it a bit much for me, since I normally do my heavy typing in dim light and ignore the key caps. Also I've only found the Keycool keyboard with red, black or brown switches.*The power cord has a woven cover similar to high end guitar power cords, rather than the plastic standard cover. It is detachable and replaceable unlike the fixed Das Keyboard cord.Disadvantages:*Has no USB hub. That same woven-covered power cord I really like lacks the second USB plug that Das Keyboard uses to power two USB hub terminals on the right side of the keyboard.*The Das Keyboard power cord comes out a fixed point in the back center, but the CM Storm cord connects through a Motorola style small USB plug. Then you can route it out from under the keyboard on the left, right or back - but the re-route is only by friction and has no tabs to keep the cord from popping out.*The lack of the ten key pad. I used to do math programming using FORTRAN and found a ten key pad (freestanding, not on the keyboard) helpful. The Das Keyboard has a ten key pad, But you can also get one on another model of the CM Storm - so that really cancels out the disadvantage.What about gaming? I respect gamers and I really appreciate their dedication to supporting the manufacture of excellent keyboards. But this is not just a gamer's keyboard. It is also a serious typist's keyboard, probably the best on the market. There is a rhythm of sound and the cushioning effect of the heavy springs which makes typing for hours much easier than using a membrane keyboard or even a tactile non click version or a version with softer springs.

    Quality, compact, affordable mech keyboard
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2014*

I have to say that I am very happy with this product!  After purchasing the full size version and taking it to work I found myself growing to hate having to come home to type on a lesser rubber dome switch keyboard.  Between the two I actually prefer the Rapid for 90% of the tasks I do a home (Writing, gaming, surfing) as it allows my right hand and mouse to be closer to center making casual use and gaming much more comfortable.I have to say I was a bit worried as this would be my first Tenkeyless keyboard.  At work I do a lot of number crunching and don't think I could get by w/o a tenkey. I wasn't sure how well I could get by without it at home, but ended up finding I much prefer it.  I have taken to using the number keys across the top and find for anything other than long periods of data entry it was preferable.As far as quality goes, I have man handled both of these boards since receiving them (packing them around in backpacks, dropping them, general mistreatment) and they have stood up well.  They feel solid and have enough weight to them that they don't move when bumped or while typing excitedly.  The switches (MX cherry brown in my case) feel terrific! I tend type a bit heavy handed and they take it like champs.  The tactile bump they make is great and always feels crisp and satisfying. I found that my writing tends to have gotten a bit more lengthy as I don't want to stop typing it feels so good!The bezel is coated with a "soft" finish that feels great and holds up well.  I honestly expected to end up peeling off at some point but no.  The supplied cord is nicely braided nylon, secures well into the board, and is able to be routed out to the left center or right which is nice depending on your desk set up.The one downside I have to mention has to do with the keycaps.  My first CM storm Quickfire pro came with back lighting and key caps that had dual injected plastics to form the semi translucent letters.  Since this keyboard is not backlit it has been fitted with surface adhered letters/symbols.  This adds a slight texture, which in my opinion is unnoticeable, but it also means that eventually they will start to wear on the keys used most.  this is not a big deal. It is something to note, but in all honesty no functionality is lost.Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to a friend or coworker.Very good buy!

    Excelente dispositivo. Altamente recomendado para cualquier uso
  
  

*by I***S on Reviewed in Mexico on February 7, 2016*

Tiene una estética muy simple, cómoda y sin adornos visuales (lo más que encontrarás será el sello de la marca en la parte trasera y un led rojo en la tecla F9 que luce mucho a la vista cuando está encendido). Quizá el único 'pero' visual que le pondría sería el apartado de la tipografía de las teclas (no es que lo vayas a ver mientras estás tecleando); nada que no puedas reemplazar con un set de teclas personalizadas.En cuestión de uso, el tecleo es suave, la respuesta es muy buena y no se nota cansancio a pesar de estar horas escribiendo en él (más bien, empiezas a notar ese cansancio que antes omitías al usar otros dispositivos en tu día a día). Sonido: puede ser un tanto molesto para alguien (si es que eliges switches azules), no necesariamente tú sino alguien cercano a tu área de trabajo o algún familiar. Es algo que se puede solucionar comprando anillos de goma que fungen como silenciadores o bien eligiendo desde un inicio cuál switch se adapta a ti, no comprar por comprar.Las teclas multimedia no tienen la mejor ubicación que se puede encontrar en el mercado pero hacen su trabajo de manera correcta, es cuestión de acostumbrarse o bien permitirse buscar la combinación de teclas necesarias al ver el teclado (pierdes algunos segundos pero nada que sea malo). Siguiendo con distribución de teclado, ésta se encuentra en inglés, algo que para un latino puede ser complicado al inicio por el uso de caracteres tales como ñ y acentos. El sistema operativo te permite elegir la distribución que deseas para el teclado, independientemente de cuál tengas físicamente en el dispositivo, para mí basta esa solución (quizá me llego a confundir al teclear si veo la distribución del teclado en lugar de simplemente teclear pero nada grave). Solución alterna: con un set de teclas personalizadas podrías darle al teclado la distribución física que necesitas (si así lo consideras).Tiene un tamaño apropiado, se siente cómodo al uso, no tienes problema por presionar teclas que hagan funciones raras queriendo simplemente poner un número, cubre con casi todas las necesidades, funciona para casi todas las personas.Nota: no es un teclado retroiluminado, quizá eso cambie tu decisión de último momento (por aquello de que en las noches necesitas tener las teclas con cierta iluminación o simplemente te gusta que se vea bonito y cambie de color).Incluye reemplazo para las teclas WASD y teclas Windows o Esc, según lo consideres prudente, y el anillo para hacer el cambio de teclas.A mí me convenció en gran medida este teclado, cubre con todas mis necesidades (lo utilizo para trabajo, chat, escritos y juegos) y las satisface de sobra. No es el mejor en el mercado pero me funciona, aparte de que el precio es bueno. No me arrepiento; buena decisión la que hice al comprar este teclado. Totalmente recomendado.
