This keyboard is a dream to type on. The low-profile OPX switches are fast and smooth, and the 8K polling makes a difference in games. The wireless is rock solid with zero lag. The RGB is gorgeous. Highly recommend.
The keyboard feels premium and the switches are great. The 99% layout is perfect for me. However, the battery life is only about a week with RGB on, which is a bit short. Otherwise, a solid buy.
It's a great keyboard, but you're paying a premium for the brand. The low-profile switches are comfortable, and the wireless is responsive. The Stream Deck integration is a nice touch. Overall, good but not cheap.
I love the low-profile design and the optical switches feel amazing. The 8K polling is overkill but nice to have. It's very quiet, which is perfect for my office. The RGB is subtle and classy. Definitely recommend.
The wireless connection dropped multiple times, and the software is buggy. The keys feel too light for my taste. Returned it and got a different brand. Not worth the money.
