Side by Side Comparison of: Azio vs Wingco vs FARSIC

This was more then I expected, Khalil blue keys are great, while many argue "cheap", there is no proof to this. The truth is there the same as cherry mx blue switches just made by another company, and there great. The click made by these keys is very satisfying.The RBG:The colors are great, many options available to satisfy. There bright, with many brightness settings, the colors are vibrant and pop. Every bit as good as a high end keyboard.Wrist rest:While I would have preferred a cushioned rest, the UV coated one provided gets the job done, not only is it detachable, but it is actually comfortable. I also found it to be solid as well, snaps on to the back side of keyboard and stays.Wire:Very impressed, for the price I expected a thin string of a cord, but that is not the case, in fact it's a very think and braided cord, about as thick as an hdmi cord is. Very nice.Keycaps:There cheap caps, but they do feel nice and get the job done. This is probably one of the biggest price cuts done here. There basically clear plastic with black paint on top, common among low end keyboards, they will fade given a year of use or so. If so inclined, you can but nicer caps.Board:This is probably my favorite part of this keyboard. It's a very nice brushed aluminum in gunmetal color. Not only does it look great but it gives it a feel and esthetic of a much more expensive keyboard. There is also feet on bottom to incline if you prefer.Switches:As stated above already this board uses Khalil blue switches, they use same materials and manufacturing processes to produce as a cherry mx blue switch, with no noticeable difference. They have a nice audible click and are very responsive, many have complained larger keys like "shift" make a different sound then smaller keys, but this is not my experience. Overall they are nice, there cheaper to make without any noticeable reduction in quality.Packaging:Includes the following:KeyboardWrist restRed plastic key pullerManualFeedback/Contact us noteThe packaging is great, felt very premium, keyboard is presented upfront with accessories below. There is heavy foam on either side, as well as a plastic sleeve for both keyboard and rest. Manual is simple and easy to read, but isn't really needed as keyboard is simple to operate and customize.Software:None needed, unlike other brands who need software that is confusing and slow to customize their boards, this one needs none. All modes are accessible with the function button, including a custom mode, which allows you to set each key to desired color.Shortcut keys:There are a few shortcut keys, such as calculator, search, music and email, as well as a few others. There are media controls, a mute key and a rubberized, gripped volume wheel very similar to corsairs k70. All very nice inclusions, all keyboards should have.USB?Unfortunately no, as some include USB and even headphone ports, there are no ports available anywhere on this keyboard. Not too much of a fuss for me, but some may be upset.Plug and play:This is simple to use, just plug in and start typing. Some keyboards require two USB 2.0 ports or a single 3.0 ports to power led's. But this does not require a USB 3.0 to work and only needs one 2.0.Complaints:Only real one for me in the rest, which I would have liked to be padded.Things for you to consider before buying:Keys are loud, wouldn't recommend for office or other public setting, they can easily annoy others.Rest isn't padded but still comfortable.Key caps are cheaper, if you want nicer ones or plan to get this board and buy replacement, it might be better to just buy a higher end board with better caps already installed.Price, this board can usually be found for under $100 for the rgb model.Both the RGB model and the base mkg model use blue switches, which are loud. However the non RGB mkg-1 uses brown switches, which are a bit quieter and have a tactile feel to the keys, not sure why this is, just something to consider.This is a great board, have had no issues with it and it is of much better quality then expected. Highly recommended for someone on a budget who still wants a good quality board that will look great and performs for many years to come.

I absolutely love this keyboard. This is my first mechanical keyboard and after testing some at fry's (including this one - which they had for almost $120 - the price of the RGB model on amazon) I fell in love with the MX Blue Feel. I was not willing to pay corsair prices, and quite honestly, I dislike corsair's overrated products anyways. In testing between the two, I notice no difference and actually preferred the Azio.The red on the sides of the keyboard did not bother me at all.The only complaint I have, is there should be a way to switch from F keys to Multimedia keys. I cannot find ANYWHERE that enables this. Aside from that, the keyboard is amazing. I will update as time goes on to see how it holds up. I expect no issues though.A little bit of advice: canned air and alcohol go a long way to maintain your equipment. Sanitize your hands and wash them as well. Don't be a dirty dorito clicker who complains about failed equipment when you can't even keep your work space uncluttered or your hands clean.

This was exactly what I wanted-- white backlight, black metal, wrist rest and simple design. I was skeptical about Kailh keys instead of Cherry, but having typed on this for months and trying out a friend's Cherry Browns, I can hardly notice a difference.Some people have noted a squeaky spacebar, but I haven't had this problem. The shift keys were difficult to press with my pinkies when typing quickly, but you get used to it pretty quickly and they do get broken in.Additionally, I had a wire-break problem with the keyboard, where lights and keys would not function for short periods. I emailed Azio, got a same-day response, filled out a form and they shipped me a replacement, then paid for shipping my old one back to them.If you like the look and want Brown keys, go for it. I have never had customer support bend over backwards for me like this before. If you have a room-mate you might drive them crazy with the clacking, but it's sheer typing nirvana.

I just love it. Was looking for a mechanical, blue switch keyboard for a long time. From the Aula Wings of Liberty to the usual Corsair K70, and everything else in between. I believe that this is the "in between". Sure, it's Kail Blue, not Cherry MX Blue, but feels and sounds just the same with the clicky/clacky feeling with each and every type. Went out of the box, and plugged into the USB without problems. I did find it odd, that the keyboard with the "T" and the "Y" key caps reversed. Whatever, as it gave me an excuse to use the key cap puller to swap them around to the appropriate spots. Lights up pretty well. At highest brightness, it's not too bright to become a distraction. Loving the volume wheel. Feels that it hides, as it's low compared to the keys, but at least it's there, so I wont complain about that. Did notice that something is loose and flailing around inside the keyboard when I pick it up and shake it alittle. Doesn't seem to affect the functionality, as everything still works. I don't feel it's THAT necessary to take it apart to find out what the loose item is, as the keyboard is working, and I don't move the keyboard atlot. Speaking of which, the rubber feet keeps the keyboard form skidding around. Even with the extended feet being all plastic, still doesn't move around. For the mid tier price of under $70, I will be purchasing another one for work. No way I'm going back to rubber domed keyboards. Just feels 'mushy'.

I'm typing this review from the aforementioned keyboard. The keys are great, the actuation points are good, NKRO works as intended, and I know for a fact i can type much more quickly and accurately on this keyboard compared to my previous premium rubber dome keyboard. I told my friend after i purchased this about twelve times how much i love it.Pros:The back lighting is fantasticThe key actuation is crisp and repeatableThe shortcut and media keys are convenientIt has lighting options!The construction is fantasticThe aluminum back plate is cheap "plastluminum"The cord is thick and clearly well madeGold plated usb connectorThe rubber feet don't slide!The volume adjustment and mute button are well places and clearly well made.Windows key lock is a great feature, that is hardly every included on a keyboardNitpicky Cons:The enter key and space key have a very mild metal "ting" to them when actuated quickly when typing.I wish the key over travel was less on mechanical keyboards in general so the keys wouldn't bottom out when i typeI wish the shortcut keys were more customizable

Alright, so my old review is out the window now. I'm speechless.Pros:AffordableNice weightDoesn't move on tableClickity clacky keysPalm rest is easy to attach and detach. Doesn't rattle when snapped on.Awesome aluminum plateLove that there are no gaps on the plate, all the keys are raised aboveCons:Not a big fan of the plastic key pullA metal rattle from the wider keys because of the support wire to keep the key from tiltingSo before, I got really unlucky and received a DOA (Dead on Arrival). I was pretty upset, so I went to customer service as soon as I could. Before the day ended, I received a response saying that they would replace it. So I provided my invoice for proof of purchase, and gave them my address. They sent me a prepaid label and I used that to ship them the keyboard. Eight days later, I'm typing with that keyboard right now. Now here is where it gets crazy. When I opened the box, I thought the contents inside the air wraps were a bit too tall. This was true as I unveiled a gaming mouse from Azio, the smile I had literally dissapeared, and I was in shock. I've never seen anything like this, and even when I dug to the bottom of the box, there was a small little roll of Smarties! Thank you Azio, you have done good by your customers!

The Azio keyboard hovers very close to earning a fifth star for me, but it falls just shy of doing so. It's a very pretty machine. Glamorous, even. On looks and sound, it earns the stars. My only concern is that, in some ways, it is not as well built as the keyboards clocking in at lower prices. The brushed and elegantly curved top plate is great, and everything about it seems to denote that this is a step above. Until you turn the keyboard over, or take off a key cap.Issue one: The bottom tray of the Azio looks pretty flimsy. Also, the flip-up risers are of the cheapest sort, and lack any traction assist, like a bit of rubber embedded. Even the cheapest mechanical I have. Shoot, even the "mechanical feel" keyboard from Masione has better risers. More to the point, better build in terms of the sturdiness of the materials.Issue two: The key caps, though they look nice and do the job, appear to be a painted and laser-ablated legend, rather than a true double-shot that uses a clear plastic second molding to allow for the backlight to shine through. To be fair, I tried abrading the finish, and it proved to more than sufficiently tough, but when you're spending more, you don't expect to get less.One final nit: The status LEDs for the caps, num, and Windows lock are way too bright, and can't be muted or turned off. Also, there are not very granular controls for the under-key backlights.The Kailh switches have a mellower sound than some blue type switches, but type quite well, with good tactility and a pleasant sound. I would say that I might light them a bit better than the "real" Cherry MX blues. I would say that the Outemu blues edge them slightly on sound, however.I believe that, when comparing the Azio to the full-fat, expensive mechanical keyboard brands, they fare well enough. When taking into account the tremendous value to be had with something like a Kumara K552, a Quisan Magicforce 68, or a Drevo Tyrfing, it's tough to say that the Azio is worth the asking price.It is a pretty 'board, at the end of the day, and might look a bit more the part in front of your expensive computer rig. That's enough to keep it in contention. I have no real reservations about it's ability to function as a peripheral, and I suppose that any user who treats it with reasonable respect could expect a long service life. It suffers simply from being in the same market with value brands that offer sturdier products for significantly less.

Kailh Blue Switch Review.I'm not a gamer, so you'll need to look elsewhere.This was replacing a Rosewill RK 9000, which is a fantastic keyboard. My biggest error was not replacing the USB cable with a 90° interface and using cable routers to hold it in place. Eventually the plug began to wear until I was constantly hearing the USB unplug song. I had long assumed I’d get a Das Keyboard, Duckey or other well known typists keyboard when the time came, but it just wasn’t in the budget at the moment. After considering Rosewill and Cougar (Cherry) and the new kid on the block James Donkey (Kailh) I figured if I was going to get the Chinese switches, why spend more for features I didn’t want?The good:A very minimalistic keyboard. Solid and small. love the way the keys are elevated over the base, this is not a crumb catcher. I'm also a fan of the simple white backlighting. I have no use for RGB affairs. I would have set it at red or amber and left it forever. White however is perfect for me. It's perfect for dimly lit environments, and while the F and J keys still have their little tactile bumps, I still tend to get lost every now and then. The light is easily adjusted via the keyboard, which mostly sends the light straight up through the keys to illuminate the letters. A soft white glow reflects down on the base and around the keys. Besides off, there only seems to be 3 light settings, from very soft to very bright. This is fine. Again, I don’t need “wave” or “oscillate” or “seizure” modes.The brushed gunmetal aluminum plate the keys appear to float over is very handsome. So is the subtle raised metal AZIO logo above the arrow keys (came with protective cover). No giant logo and flaming skulls is another plus in my book. The red sides and slight red line at the front base is also surprisingly elegant and understated. The keys have a nice, extended gothic sans serif style font that’s not quite as blade-runnery as some other “gaming” keyboards. The silicone feet front and back are particularly sticky, which keep the keyboard in place quite well. The angle braces lift it just slightly, but the angle seems perfect. While they are hard plastic, the feet at the front seem to suffice in keeping the keyboard placed.I appreciate the ability to add typical access functions to the function keys without the need for extra software or drivers. Perhaps the thing I like the most is the volume knob. It’s a great design – just a big rubberized rolling cylinder, and a mute switch next to it. These days with auto-play videos and volume that varies 50db often in the same video, it’s come in quite handy.The Meh:I’m not a fan of the alternate markings on both the function keys and especially numeral keys. In this case, the numeral keys are above the shift keys, which is backwards. Also, the shift key markings are very small, and not being backlit as the numerals are might make it harder for some people to see if they’re not touch-typists.The Kailh blue switches are tactilely inferior to the Cherry Blue. Granted, if you had never used the Cherry switches, you’d think this was great. They do however require more force and are slightly muddier in feel. The Cherry Blue are just lighter and snappier and give a higher pitched click. This is a fair substitute though – but I would most certainly avoid the expensive manufacturers that have started to employ these. It’s a cost cutting measure plain and simple. Whether or not these last as long as the Cherry’s with their gold contacts has yet to be seen. The switches on my old Rosewill were not the cause for its demise.While the wrist rest is actually very solid, and enclosed on both sides, which surprised me to tell the truth. It is however a little bit slippery, the dimples are nothing more than speed holes. The shape is good, and it’s not bad looking. I’m not sure this is something I’ll be using or not. For the longest time I used a gel pad, so I find this just slightly lacking. Then again – it’s better than nothing. YMMV.The Ugly:While this doesn’t bother me, it might other people. And that’s the fact that the cable is hard-wired straight out the back. Unlike other keyboards, there’s no way to route the cable from one side to the other. Since this was a point of failure in my last keyboard – I don’t mind, but there are better designs that don’t cause wear as quickly.The lights for the cap lock etc are not affected by the light controller, so they always stay at the same eye-piercing brightness. Luckily they’re not blue, but they don’t need to be as bright as they are. The slight chrome surround only enhances this.Pros:- Minimalist, elegant design- Simple white backlighting- Free floating keys over base – easy cleaning- Solid, weighty- No extra drivers needed – plug n play- Decent feeling Kailh switches- Heavy duty braided cable- Clever volume control design- Included removeable wrist rest- InexpensiveCons:- Hard wired cable- Not Cherry switches- Num lock etc. indicator LED’s cannot be dimmed- Longevity yet to be provenSo, that’s about it. For under $70 it’s hard to beat. Certainly, if you’ve never used a mechanical keyboard, this is a great entry point. If you’ve got the money, then go straight for the Cherry switches and don’t look back. If you game a lot, and the tactile switches are not on your radar – then the Kailh switches will probably be just fine. These just don’t have the finess when you move to the blue or clear. I have no problem giving this 4 stars at the moment. Had I not come from Cherry switches, I’d probably give it 5 stars. Recommended nonetheless.

Not bad for a cheap K70 variant, the key switch feel is close to a MX brown but more clunky and not as refined as a Cherry switch. I use this keyboard at work and have a K70RGB with reds at home. If your in the market for a cheap solid well built mechincal keyboard as an alternative to the corsair keyboards, this will do just fine.Side notes, the keyboard has a nice brushed aluminum under the keys, windows key lock, N-key roll over, 6 key roll over and the lighting effects are nice such as "press, light up and fade" or all the keys lit up with 3 different levels of light or no light on at all. The palm rest is also a nice addition, its just hard plastic, no rubber and the volume control roller and mute button is also a nice addition, along with the indicator light for num, scroll and caps lock.

Using the keyboard to type this right now. Been using it for about 2 weeks. It's not really that loud, though my roommate can hear it now and couldn't hear my non mechanical one. I LOVE that there is a dedicated volume wheel. The braided cable is nice. The LED backlight is a good level, and the white color is nice, would gladly take it over red since the rest of my set up is blue. Keys were on secure but still easily removable for cleaning or anything with a little force. Windows key lock is practically a godsend, you can lock it so that it doesn't do anything while playing games. Numpad is great to have, just about my only gripe is that the backspace key doesn't seem to be as responsive as the rest of the keys, which is kind of a pain because as I'm getting used to the keyboard I have had to use it a lot. All in all I'm happy with my purchase, there's something satisfying about the clickity clack of the keys.

Purchased with MX Brown switches for typing as opposed to gaming and by far the best keyboard for typing I've owned since IBM's early mechanical switch keyboards. Browns are the quietest mechanicals you can get but don't expect silent typing unless you get good dampers or have a very light touch.The original unit they sent me died after about a month of use. I strongly suspect the cause was being connected to a notebook USB port that supplies power when the computer is off as I would notice the keyboard lights would half way cycle on (the pattern the keys light up when turned on) every time it was shut down or put into sleep mode. I believe this had the same effect as plugging and un plugging the keyboard in quick succession every time the computer was put into sleep mode or turned off.My only complaint and reason for a 4 as opposed to 5 star is the palm rest. The connector is flimsy, and breaks and disconnects too easily. Not an issue for desktop users, but I'm mobile and the keyboard travels with the laptop.Azio, take note: a detachable USB cable would have been great. I find the hardwired one it comes with too long for my setup.

 I've really enjoyed this keyboard. Here is the breakdown:Pros:1. Proper metal body. It's quite cool looking.2. Individually back-lit keys3. Mechanical keyswitches are smooth so far (1 week of use).4. Media controls on the function keys.5. N-key rollover on PC (6-key on Mac?)6. This cool mode where keys light up just as you press them (see video)Cons:1. You may need to oil the switches of some of the larger keys (space, KP0, shift, etc) after a while.2. It seems like the keys take more force to activate than I'd expect, and do not necessarily actuate/activate upon the "click". This is where "Cherry" keyswitches have an advantage.Overall, a good buy for the money..

Aesthetically I like the keyboard, and the volume control is handy. I expect it will be durable but don't like that there is a bit of friction on the action of the keys. There is supposed to be a bit of a bump when the switch engaged just before full travel but you can't feel it due to the friction. Was hoping that it would break in and get smoother with some use but it's been about a month and a half and no improvement is noticeable. Thinking I should have spent a few more bucks on a keyboard with Cherry switches rather than these knockoffs.

I really like the look and feel of the keyboard and I'm using it now to write this review. I've had it for about 30 minutes and have only tested it by doing a couple of typing tests and ran through the function keys. The quick function keys are great for quickly opening a web browser, mail, the calculator, and music player. You can also pause, play, skip, and stop your music without switching windows.The volume knob on the top right feels very smooth and well made.The only concern I have with it so far, is how stiff the keys are. I do feel like some keys are more stiff than others, but I can't be too certain. Not all of them, might I add, but it specifically feels like the space bar, left shift, backspace, and forward slash are a bit stiffer.The clicky-ness is just as satisfying as I thought it would be and was exactly what I was looking for. I can't compare the noisy-ness of the keys when pressed to any other mechanical keyboard I've used (first one I've owned), but I can say it is louder than the membrane keyboard I have been using at work.All in all, the spacing feels fine with my small-medium sized hands, although I've mistakenly bumped the function keys when going for the second-to-top row. I am contemplating getting something to lubricate the switches so that I can get a more smooth and easier typing experience. If you have any comments on how you have overcome some stiffer than anticipated keys, I would love to hear how you overcame your troubles!

I've had this keyboard for about a month now. By my standards, this product is working exceptionally well. The tactile feedback out of these Kailh switches are nearly identical to Cherry MX Blue switches. The wrist rest provides stability and comfort when typing, easily countering wrist fatigue that occurs after long periods of typing. It's wonderful. Additionally, the backlighting may not be RGB but is optimized towards the idea room brightness, including settings from really dim to bright. The build material and quality feel extraordinary, especially at this price range, and is definitely a factor that other competitive brands don't include. In all aspects, this keyboard seamlessly sets the standard, with one of the best quality to price ratios that I know.The reason and sole reason that my review is a 4-star corresponds to the consistency of the keyboard. Some keys have shorter travel distance than other keys. This is completely dependent on the customer themselves. For me, I can't really notice a difference, only when I carefully compare the keys is this problem visible, so, therefore, I don't really care otherwise.I would definitely recommend this to a friend.UPDATE: The board's keys are getting very sticky, and it's starting to annoy me because I type essays every day for school and the sticky keys don't make this keyboard better than any other keyboard really. I still enjoy the clicking sounds, but the leeway for error has gotten much higher. I can't type as fast anymore because I'm constantly retyping keys because they're too sticky causing me to lose my momentum when typing. 4-star to 3-star.

It's not that it's that bad of quality but out of the box it looks really nice and feels nice but once you get it home and type on it it's another story. The key caps feel nice and show no wear after a few months of usage but the way the keys work not the key switch but just the slides they move on it may just be my keyboard but pressing some keys on the corner makes them rub on there slides and make that keystroke feel sticky. For being in the $100 price rage you would expect a little more with other products being just slightly more than it.

I have owned this keyboard since February of 2015 and it has not held up. I game and type every day and most of the keys have lost there new feeling. Keys like the number pad which I do not use still feel fresh but the others, like w a s d and shift have gone to mushy feeling with no click. Also my alt key has been worn down and the black color on the corners is faded.This is sad because the keyboard is beautiful, it just has not held up. I would try a different brand if you want something to game on and type long term.

I was a bit torn on how many stars to give this keyboard. Overall it is very good but it has a few nagging issues that bug me but seeing has how this keyboard has nearly 5 stars and I can understand why people love it so much I'd play the devils advocate to that point of view and focus on what I think are its short comings.The build quality is overall very good, the AL face is the real deal, it looks and feels great. The plastic base and sides though feel a bit cheap and the weight of the keyboard is very low leading me to believe that all the strength comes from that AL base which while structurally fine makes for a very lightweight and sort of cheap feeling keyboard that slides around. My old Logitech K740 Illuminated keyboard feels like it weighs about 2x as much despite being made of plastic and stays put far far better.The plam rest is a bit sad. It attaches "ok" but it certainly could have been more securely attached to the keyboard. Worse though is that its just hard plastic. The plastic is good quality but its not very comfy and the texture kinda blows when soft touch platics have come so far as a material so big missed opportunity here.The braided cable is a bit nuts. Its very inflexible; it almost feels as though its regular rubber incased cable with braiding over that which is rather pointless and just makes for a thicker cable with none of the advantages of a braided cable which is supposed to be lightweight and flexible.If you think your can live with those issues then all the rest you've heard about it is true. They keys feel and look absolutely fantastic, it really is a sick looking keyboard. The backlighting is also great evening lighting every key and a bit of the AL faceplate. There are also plenty of customization options. I just wish the build quality was more consistent and for those reasons mentioned above I don't think I'll be keeping it.

Bought it in February on May the LED for the letter "N" stopped working two months later (on July) the LED for the "," stopped working

I bought this in September 2016, thinking that it was a good entry-level mechanical keyboard. I enjoyed the clickiness of the keys, but I seemed to have some issues with typing accuracy. I thought, "must just take some time to adjust to a mechanical keyboard." Well, it might, but I don't think that's the issue. I used the keyboard regularly for about eight months with continual issues. I changed back to an old membrane keyboard and was back to normal, so again, must be mechanical isn't for me.Then, looking for a new keyboard to replace this aging membrane stop-gap, I looked back over the reviews here and noticed a pattern: a number of people were having the same issues as me. There were two main problems I had while using this keyboard:1. I'd regularly type letters in the wrong order. "Product" would turn to something like "Prudoct" and I'd be really confused as to how my fingers possibly did that. They don't on other keyboards?2. I'd regularly end up with the first two letters of a word capitalized. IT'd be like this every sentence.Well, I guess it wasn't just me. There seem to be some problems with the way the keys process. Maybe mechanical is for me, but this keyboard clearly wasn't. I'd steer clear just in case--there are good alternatives for similar prices.Not to say it was all bad, of course. I really enjoyed the weight and feel of the keyboard, and it looks nice. But the basic function, typing, is lacking.

Looks great, but I had one minor problem and one major problem with it. I'll start with the minor problem. The key caps are shaped a little differently than most: i think they are tad longer than they usually come on most mechanical keyboards. This may not be that big a deal to most people, but it makes it so that my hand needs to slightly contort itself in order to reach some of the keys on the bottom row like the comma and period.The major problem I had with this keyboard, and this was an absolute deal breaker, was that pressing two keys nearly simultaneously would cause the keyboard to send the key inputs in the reverse order in which they were actually pressed. No mechanical keyboard I've ever used had this problem such as the razer black widow ultimate, corsair k70, or the logitech g610 orion. Now typically I don't type quite fast enough on average to trigger this behavior. But this is something I've noticed, and I absolutely cannot tolerate it. Be wary of this keyboard if you think this might bother you.Overall: it is a decent keyboard for the price, but I can't recommend it. Better off spending 10 to 20 bucks more to get a better quality product.

The keys feel way stiffer than Cherry MX Browns. A lot of keys sound different from each other when being pressed. The ESC keycap was broken inside and kept falling off (had to replace with the Pause/Break key that I never use). The Space keycap kept detaching from the opposite corner it was being pressed (I wanted this keyboard for gaming but when I'm on WASD and press Space I press it on the left corner, so it's impossible).Bought a Logitech G610 a week later for only 10 more dlls, with CherryMX brown switches, and sold the Azio as I hate returning products and waiting for new ones to come.

***Update*** while the keyboard is quite awesome, after one day I came across problems while typing. The reason I dropped to two stars was because clearly the keyboard was not tested throughly enough. I would understand more if it lasted for a few years or even months. But it didn't even last one day. I plan to have it returned and will update again after receiving another keyboard. If that one works I will bring the rating back up. TRUST ME, I really really want this keyboard to work I love the way it looks and the Kailh blue switches it uses. Hopefully I can get one that lasts longer!Came very quick, awesome keyboard!

After using this for a while, I've noticed the same problem that other reviewers mentioned, namely that the shift button sticks. So trying to type a word like Regards comes out as REgards. The constant typing and then backspacing to correct is frustrating.

Feels cheap and looks ugly in person. Also the leds used are terrible I sent it back within the 30 day window but never received a full refund. I highly recommend either spending less on equal quality (like the "Ajazz" keybaords, which I think are great) or spending a bit more on a name brand like Cooler Master (I have a Quickfire that's excellent.)

I originally wrote a good review, but the keyboard has started to give me problems. The i key does not work!

I was so excited to get this for an early Christmas gift and I can't tell you how incredibly disappointed I am. I opened up the box plugged it in and the razzle-dazzle of the lights turning on was great. A moment goes by and I start typing to find out several of the keys just straight up don't work. The F,G,T,V,C, and others just don't work. They make the wonderful noise and light up but when typing...nothing. Again, terribly disappointed.

This board died in less than 30 days. 100% wont get power. I received this board Nov 25. this morning Dec 16 it is 100% dead. While it worked it was an average mechanical keyboard rather loud for my tastes but that was expected with the cheap Kailh switches. I would suggest anybody to just buy a Korsair 70 or 95 over this. While this board looks sleek i think that is where most of the money was spent.

I loved the keyboard but after less than 8 months the spacebar just doesn't work anymore.

Just opened my new keyboard after bought it from amazon us and got it delivered to Greece.After 10 days of waiting and paying extra for custom tax duties tried to test my brand new keyboard MKG1.On the first try the U key got stuck ( gets down and stays there until restore with hand).The same key when pressed doesn't make the same click sound as the other , clearly there is something wrong with it.Not very good for a game keyboard that states 50 million keystroke lifespan. Amazon offered a free replacement but the cost of return the false one is larger than the cost of the new so ..
