Overall a good keyboard, but one specific issue.
I don't know if any other's have experienced this issue with the keyboard, but on my own keyboard the O and ESC buttons constantly fail to register unless I'm pressing the key multiple times. It's not that big of an issue, but it does get annoying when I've finished typing and I spot multiple O's missing in the sentences. Other than this complaint, I have nothing but good things to say about the keyboard. It's lightweight, the switches feel nice (although it takes some time getting used to them if you've been using Cherry MX switches). When it cmes to the switches on the keyboard, at first I was skeptical as they do feel a bit more membrane'ish than the Cherry MX counterpart, but after using the switches for a while they do actually feel really good, and typing comes way easier on these switches compared to the Cherry switches.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great typists board with some odd flaws!
I'm not a gamer, just wanted to increase my typing speed and accuracy, which was a complete and almost instant success. It feels great compared to the old membrane board. The compactness and absence of "gamer bling" are big pluses for me and I do not miss the numeric keypad - in fact I would prefer it were missing altogether, see below! Some negatives and comments though: I am not a fan of the quirky font, though I think is is partly a functional choice: the chunkiness makes the backlighting work much better than many others with almost all the light directed through the double-shot legends. They seem to be avoiding isolated islands within the legend glyphs, I guess this facilitates the double-shot moulding process and the keys are noticeably less tall than other double-shot keys I've seen which probably require support structures within for the isolated islands. I could have done without the over-elaborate arrows, weird A and indistinguishable 5 and S though! The inconsistent placement of shifted and unshifted legends is a daft flaw. The side-by-side placement is good as it allows both legends to benefit from backlighting. But the unshifted legend is on the left for the number keys and ~, but on the right for the other non-alphanumeric characters. Why? Is this a stupid design mistake? For me (in Windows 10) it powers up with the number lock engaged, converting some of the main letter keys into numbers. The main illuminated legend on this key reads "PS" (or "P5" see above!) and it only toggles when you hold down "FN". The illumination on this key and a few other toggle keys is not part of the backlighting but indicates the toggle state. These factors (which are not covered on the terse instruction card) almost got the board returned as faulty. I could not enter the boot password because I did not realise that num lock was engaged and I thought some of the backlights were not working or stuck on! I do not know if this is always the case, but I could only find US layout boards on the market (no Pound or Euro currency symbols). This is odd because compared to a membrane board, with removable keycaps it is dead easy to support alternative layouts - just supply (or sell separately) the extra caps and let the buyer change them. Final winge: It always seems to power up in the annoying pulsing backlight mode which is so subtle it just looks like a faulty scanning system with all lights on. Since lighting control is on the keyboard only (no control settings in the driver) you have to set the lighting to a more sensible mode every power-up. This is odd since the keyboard does remember the user configured "gamer" lighting modes so it does have non-volatile memory. Incidentally these five modes (numbered 2 .. 6!) always seem to include the corresponding number backlit as well as the user selected keys, which may not be what you want and since the selection is a rotation (FN-1) rather than FN and that number key, this indication seems pointless. No, sorry, one last winge! The F12 toggling windows key lock is annoying because it means you cannot have backlighting on F12. Better would have been to lock windows key using a long solo press of this key with its own backlight used as the indicator. But despite these flaws, I like it and it was very inexpensive for a mechanical board of this quality. I finally worked out that "PAU" means "Pause", but what does "PS" (or "P5") mean? Pressing it without FN does not seem to generate any keycode or local effect.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
