Performance
Plus the keyboard in and it sparks to live in a shower of colours. The vibrancy of the RGB is a little surprising actually, given how toned down and dark the keyboard is on its own. Of course, that’s by design to give a deeper contrast between the two.
By default, it’ll just cycle through the rainbow, which seems to be the industry default these days. However, you can toggle to single colours, slow fades, and a bunch of reactive effects easily enough.
Everything worked as I would have expect really. Albeit, reactive lighting still makes zero sense to me, but I guess it is fun for about five seconds.
I quite liked this one, just the twinkle stars style effects.
But overall, it’s RGB so you can set any key however you desire, or even just set the whole keyboard to a single colour and leave it. Yes, of course,you can also turn the lights off entirely.
When it comes to performance, it’s really what you would expect. It’s a premium mechanical keyboard and it’s really as simple as that. The red switches are really nice, and they feel much more responsive thanks to the aluminium top panel.
A durable keyboard means less vibration and a more positive feedback overall. However, it’s the big wrist rest that really nails it for me. It’s nice and long, meaning I can rest my full wrist on there, which improves long-term comfort. Given I spend 14 hours plus a day typing, I’ll take any advantage I can get.
