## Description

Product description Ergonomic Wrist Rest Exclusive wrist rest Design built for long and intensive sessions whether for gaming or office use - you are always comfortable on this wrist rest. 8 extra silicon keycaps This Gaming Keyboard comes with 8 swap-able silicon keys. Premium Feel Double Shot ABS keycaps add the premium key feel that gamers have come to love. Premium Build Metallic alluminum alloy frame with anti-slip supports to keep your keyboard in place during frantic battles. Dependable Durability All Light Strike Keyboards use a nano-coating layer that is highly resistant to spills, splashes, and spouses. (ex. sodas, sugary drinks). The Technology of Optical Switches You know that moment, the one where you’re seconds away from losing. You feel your finger pressing the game saving key, but it’s too late. The key didn’t register. No matter how many times you tell yourself, it keeps running over in your head, “I know I pressed it”. Maybe you're not crazy. This is called input lag, it’s caused by mechanical switches and their metal to metal contact designing. This lag can be anywhere between 8-30ms; have you checked what you’re gaming on? Switch Up Your Style Exclusive Light Strike (LK) Optical Gaming Switch (Black) Technology for ZERO Digital Lag 55g force actuation. Neon Backlighting Clear multi-color backlighting that won't distract you from your gaming sessions. Water Resistant Barrier Fully water resistant and will not break when accidents happen.

Review: Fully fledged mechanical gaming keyboard - It is actually a good keyboard. The design is pretty dated, but it does go on sale for like 35 bucks sometimes. It's a steal for that price. It is on another level compared to the 20-60 dollar desertcart mechanical keyboards, both in terms of switches and gaming performance. I am pretty intrigued with budget keyboards and like trying them out. A lot of them skimp on things like polling rate or have terrible knockoff switches. I tried out a hou ji z88 recently, which is about the same price as this when it's on sale. It felt off and then I figured out that it had 62.5hz polling rate and was unusable for gaming. This keyboard has 1000hz polling, and the switches are actual good technology that premium brands have licensed/copied. That is why I would call this "fully fledged", it is on par with much more expensive keyboards. I would say the switches are most comparable to Mx speed silver, as they have a slightly shorter travel and higher force than mx reds. You get some rubber textured keys for your wasd included, and the keycaps are decent for what they are despite gamer font. I like their idea for making it spillproof, the switches have a little plastic shield over them when you take the keycaps off, which I haven't seen elsewhere. Cons: Has a big footprint on your desk. It's cool they made a custom molding to make it look unique but the four corner feet really do stick out and the keyboard is like 2 inches wider than it needs to be. The plastic is silver to make it look like metal, which looks a little cheap. It is a little heavy feeling, but that's just because of its size. It's also very echoey and you can really hear some unpleasant sounds when you press the keys (actually the biggest issue with it imo). And the backlighting sucks, and it has only 4 modes being on/off/super annoying series of effects/breathing. If they went with solid color, it would be more appealing. All in all, this is a super underrated keyboard that will serve you well. The funky looks are a turn off for most, and the bad noise it makes when typing lingers with me. But believe me that the bones of this keyboard are far above any of the budget outemu or kaihl switch keyboards on desertcart. Highly recommend this over those. In the current year though, it's hard to recommend while it's over 50 bucks, as I would rather just get a corsair at that point and not hate how it looks and sounds.
Review: the default backlight setting is super annoying - I'm not sure why the developers thought that a flashing backlight following user inactivity would be a the most appealing default setting to the majority of their customers. Users can't a) change the default setting unless they download and install some (questionable) code or b) just turn off the backlight and still see all the keys unless they have all the lights on in the room. I really wanted to give this keyboard more stars, but after weeks of use the backlight issue has become super annoying. I mean really. If the developers are totally devoted to the flashing backlight during user inactivity, then they should at least ensure that ALL the keys are visible in low or ambient lighting so that the no-backlight option is an actual viable option. For anyone who thinks they can overlook what I cannot, you should know that this keyboard has an optical switch, not a mechanical one. I cannot see the difference between the two in terms of reaction time or sensitivity. The feel of this keyboard is like that of a Cherry black switch, which means slightly more resistance than a Cherry red switch and no tactical feedback. Yes, it sounds like a mechanical keyboard, so you won't be stealth in your typing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still Functional after 4 Years
*by J***E on June 17, 2024*

I got this keyboard back in summer 2022, and now it's 2026; it still functions well. I'm super happy with this keyboard. Pros: extremely sturdy I guess? It truly lasted longer than I thought it'd be. The coating on the keycaps are great too. Very responsive keys. Good quality overall. Cannot believe it survived 4 years with tons of daily usage. I did switched out some of the keycaps to a more rubbery one so I actually dont know how the special coating on the action keys (awsd) are. Cons: I absolutely hate the rainbow gamer aesthetic but at least I can turn off the rainbowy backlight. It's NOT RGB so you will have to deal with the rainbow light in one way or another.
