Welcome to my overview slash review whatever you want to call it of what may seem at first like the least exceptional keyboard ever. Alright so it comes in a box but that's pretty much you know par for the course. It's got like bubble wrap and you can take it out. There's no braided cable, no wrist rest, no real accessories in the box, no detachable cable. Although they do have this cool little feature where you can route it around to one side if you want and get it out of the way of your monitor or whatever else. It has no audio pass through, no USB hub and basically just looks like the most boring thing ever. So which you might reply, okay Linus why am I even watching this? Why did you even do this? Well the answer is check out the link in the video description labeled pricing and availability and prepare to have your eyes fall off. Yeah or out or whatever your eyes do when they fall. Yes this is a mechanical keyboard that is actually less expensive than many fully backlit membrane keyboards and it comes with a full backlight. In this case blue. So now I'm done hating on it. Let's talk about what's good about it. First of all they've done nothing stupid with the layout. Nice standard 104 key layout without any shortened shifts or backspaces or anything like that. The LED backlights are actually pretty darn good. You only get four brightness levels so you can go all the way down to nothing or all the way up to actually quite bright. The build quality is much better than I was expecting. There is almost no flex to this bad boy and I would not have pegged this for such an inexpensive mechanical keyboard if someone had just handed it to me and asked me to tell them how much I thought that it cost. It has a Windows key, disabled key which is sort of in a weird location up at the top right but it has one. It also has media keys that are handled with a function, you know secondary functionality thing but it does support play pause, forward, back, stop, volume, down, up and mute. So it's got that functionality on board but other than that not a whole lot. Depending on where you look I think on the box it says N key rollover but actually on their site it says 6 to 8 key rollover. So it does support enough rollover that for pretty much any gaming combination you're not going to have any difficulty. And other than that what can I say about it? It's a better typing experience. It's very solidly built and it comes in at a very appealing price. They've got nice little ergonomic risers at the back here that actually have rubber tips. This is something you don't see that often so it won't slide whether you have it laying down flat on the table or if you have it raised. And it's available with at least three different key switch types. So they've got browns, reds and blues available depending on where you look. And so that means it's inexpensive and there's lots of variety just like audible.com. Head over to audible.com slash Linus to check out their monthly audiobook membership.
