RisoPhy Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, RGB 104 Keys Ultra-Slim LED Backlit USB Wired Keyboard with Blue Switch, Durable Abs Keycaps/Anti-Ghosting/Spill-Resistant Computer Keyboard for PC Mac Xbox Gamer

If you missed the old,clicky Model M from IBM, this keyboard emulates it pretty well. One must consider though, that it may emulate it too well. If you have fat fingers, you will find yourself making the same typos that you mad in high school when you learned to type on one. However, this is no deal breaker in my opinion. The speed at which I can type has vastly improved with the solid tactile feedback that tells you without a doubt that you press was registered.Setup couldn't be easier, just plug it into any USB port and away you go. Recognizes immediately as a 104 key with perks. Having the media controls and other immediate functions right there is nice too.As far as the design goes, it is very rugged and ready for the millions of keystrokes you will put on it as a writer. You will find a kind of typing joy you haven't experienced in quite a long time. No soft-touch or sickle keyboard will match the feel from what you get here.The only thing I find really off is the shallow height of the back stands. I think that they should be redesigned to be a bit taller. I cut a little piece of flat trim to set them on and that made the angle perfect.All-in-all, this keyboard is a joy to type on. I don't use it for gaming, because I see this as a waste of a premium feeling keyboard, wearing out the ASWD area and ruining it. I haven't had such a good keyboard in years and I'm not destroying that way.The one caveat I would warn you about is that if you use it on a KVM switch that is USB powered, this keyboard draws quite a bit of power to run the back light. be aware that you may get video background issues. Mine works just fine if I turn the backlight down low.

A decent and DURABLE keyboard. Has somewhat frequent double press issues, but otherwise very good.I bought this initially as a bad replacement for my KeyCron keyboard. a 10x downgrade in price, but found it very responsive when typing - satisfying. Haven't felt like I needed to rush repairing my old keyboard since this one functions mostly fine, and looks cute!Nearly a year after purchase, tragedy happened. My last keyboard had started smoking after the inevitability of a spilled drink, and like clock work, this keyboard suffered the same fate. An uncoordinated motion sent a torrent of liquid against the keyboard. Not water, that would be too covenant. This torrent was sugary, sticky, and 10-15% abv. title wave sent crashing directly between the keys and into the circuitry of this durable device. Despite my panic and frantic attempts to pad up liquid, this keyboard kept it's familiar and comforting pink hue, not wavering in the slightest - acting as a proxy of a beaconed confidence towards it's creators.While I had been short circuiting, this modest device had survived a mechanical equivalent to hurricane Katrina. Not one LED flickered, not one key had it's functionality damaged. It had survived what no keyboard ever should - mechanical nor membrane.-- Real talk --This keyboard is pretty decent. I bought it because my NAS couldn't understand my expensive keyboard, and it ended up being my main keyboard for over a year. My job requires a lot of typing, and I've noticed it occasionally double presses keys with a delay of ~100ms, causing an accidental letter or space to be inserted where it wasn't intended. Having used/purchased at least 20 keyboards in my days, no temporary keyboard has performed better than this one. It's affordable, and you can't expect perfection AT THIS PRICE RANGE, but for gaming and for daily use or work, it's durability and functionality are exceptional compared to others in the same range. 8.6/10, don't daily drive unless you need to, but if you need to, you can count on it to last.

I have been using a Razor Black Widow for years, but the "Q" key died on me. I figured this was worth a try. It has a great feel and lots of LED options. The only drawback is that the colors are pre-set, so you can't customize it exactly how you want it. Overall, a great keyboard though.

I honestly wasn’t expecting much at this price point, but this keyboard blew me away. The blue switches are satisfyingly clicky - like, really clicky. If you love that classic mechanical “clack-clack” sound, this thing delivers in abundance. Typing on it feels responsive and crisp, and the sound is half the fun (though fair warning that it’s loud enough that your coworkers/roommates may not be as amused)Build quality is solid, keys feel durable, and everything worked perfectly right out of the box. The key caps weren’t my personal favorite but it comes with a key puller and they were easy to swap. It’s worth a note that the switches are NOT hot swappable. Whether you’re a gamer, a writer, or just someone who types a lot and likes a little auditory feedback, this board punches way above its weight.Highly recommend, especially for anyone looking to dip into mechanical keyboards without dropping a ton of cash.

I got this keyboard for my office and I thought "why not try a mechanical keyboard?" Well, I wasn't expecting it to be so loud -- fortunately it doesn't bother the people working next to me but I can see where it would be a problem.I'm also a fast typer, so I need to be able to move on and off of keys quickly. I didn't have any problems typing at 110+ wpm. The action on the keys also didn't leave my hand sore or tired either.I'd love to have a wrist pad under the keyboard, but for the price this is a great value even for office use.
