Hot Swappable cream switch Cyan review from a non-keyboard person

The media could not be loaded. Cons you should be aware of:This is not a full size keyboard. It's 65% of a normal keyboard. There's no tilde key, no home or end key, no number keypad, no dedicated f1 function keys the way a full size keyboard has. You really take for granted the ease of having it readily available, so make sure you're ready to edit shortcuts and hot keys to fit this keyboard. I had to change hot keys for several applications since I started using this keyboard fultime for work. The pros outweigh the cons for me tho and I got another creamy keyboard but it's a number keypad so I have a bit more of a keyboard lol.So I really got this for the creamy sounds (I attached a video) it sounds a bit louder than it really is irl. I can't resist it. I discovered it existed and then bought this a day later. And then a bigger layout one with similar sounds from a different brand the day after that. This was yesterday lol. I really love many things about this keyboard, but I really wish it was a full size layout. I will be using this when I'm traveling instead and the bigger one I bought for daily use at home. I love the look, the colors are ace and calming.The keys are wider and I appreciate that. I have bigger fingers so I don't feel like I'm hitting the sharp/raised edge of every key like I do with normal layout design. I might swap these keys on on the bigger layout one 😂 anyway. This thing is built beautifully. Its solid and sturdy and made of quality material. It was plug and play into my work pc. Didn't test bt. Love the colors. Don't notice any lag. Feels great to type on mostly because of the keys themselves

Critics are Wrong

chat- this is by far the best keyboard for the price as a keyboard connoisseur. I'm not sure what all the negative reviews are referring to. I've heard people say it's "flimsy, plastic, bends too easily, and wouldn't be good for gaming". That's false. Yes, the keyboard bends if you twist it with all your might. It's a keyboard, so maybe be normal and don't twist it? And this keyboard DOES withstand aggressive gaming. I have a very heavy grip and touch, whether it be keyboard or mouse, and this thing does not give. If this keyboard breaks on you, it sounds like a skill issue on your part. The keyboard has a great sound, satisfying, and yet not too loud. The mute and volume knob works like a charm, no delays. The RGB function is beautiful, works well, and has more options than you'd think. Plus, the keyboard looks absolutely beautiful on a desk and will most definitely work well with your PC setup.

Best cheap keyboard out there

Functions great, looks beautiful with the volume knob, is very light, easy assembly, and is a 65% size keyboard. however, the brightness is something that doesn’t really “show” off. Sounds beautiful

Worth every penny

This keyboard is worth every penny that I paid for it the keycap texture is out of this world the key switches sound amazing and the volume knob I have had so much use out of the volume knob then I ever thought I would and there's little to no input latency for shooters for first person games for RPGs for MMOs there's no10 out of 10 would recommend

I really like this thing.

I want to start with how much I like the cream switches on this thing. I haven't had a ton of keyboards but this is by far the smoothest and best feeling typing experiences I have had on a keyboard. The sound dampening on this is great. Offers a (*relatively, it is still a mechanical kb and therefore not silent) quiet experience while typing. The keyboard body is surprisingly well built with nice materials and no, or none that I have noticed, flex in the board. I am not all that heavy handed while typing so that may lend to a different experience for you if you happen to type that way. I personally have always been a sucker for smaller keyboards but a 60% just misses the mark for me because it lacks the arrow keys. This being a 65% and having those plus a dedicated DEL key takes the cake for me.As great as this keyboard is, I do have a few problems with it. First, the lack of a manufacturer made software is a little disappointing. They do have some functionality with VIA but this specific keyboard is not officially supported by the makers of VIA according to the VIA website. VIA itself is a little unwieldy but does get the job done for some things. Regardless, I would like to see an officially supported software for this keyboard for those that want it (or for official support by VIA would be ok as well.) Second, the volume knob is a little mushy compared to the rest of the keyboard. It doesn't feel bad but it can definitely be better too. (This isn't as much of an issue for me considering the cost of the keyboard and the quality overall but might be a deal breaker for others). My final thing that I am not the biggest fan of is no shine through on the key caps. (Yes I am aware I can get another set of keycaps with them but I wish there was option that allowed me to pick shine through keys vs no shine through.) Having any amount of shine so that I can see what key I am pressing (sometimes I forget where a key is and I have to look to remember where it is. I am not the best typist so cut me some slack on that one) in darker conditions would be nice even if it meant that it was an option I had to choose rather than having to go and get a whole new set of keycaps.I have not tested any sort of wireless use. I use mine wired at a desktop so if you are looking for info on the battery life or wireless performance, I would keep looking.All in all, I really like this keyboard. I am pleasantly surprised with it and have already recommended it to some friends of mine. All my issues with it can easily be ignored since they are either features I don't use enough to care about or are not bad enough to care majorly about. I hope you will give this keyboard a go.

Wonderful First Keyboard

This is a great keyboard and the sound of pressing the keys is amazing. The color is beautiful, however, can get dirty very quickly. This light weight keyboard is a great addition to an office set up to brighten up your day. The lights when clicking the keys looks beautiful and changing them is so easy. I would keep the directions, just in case you forget how to switch the colors. The set up for the keyboard on a Mac was a little confusing, but I did not have a huge issue. I just have to use the alt key as the command key, and I am okay. I would love if this did have a number pad, but that is definitely a consumer error. This overall is a great keyboard, especially if you just want it to work out of the box.
