Marvo PRO KG934 TKL RGB Mechanical Keyboard Review

A Closer Look & Performance

For such an affordable keyboard, this thing looks alright! Although I’ll admit it’s a little lightweight, it doesn’t have a thick metal plate or other heavy materials inside that you may find on much more expensive models. However, I fully expected the material bill to be cut, as they certainly haven’t cut out features.

The plastics all feel great under my fingertips. They look a little shiny, which may wear off over time, but right now, they look great. It’s a plastic finish that a little more old school, the sort of materials more common on keyboards 10 years ago, but there’s certainly nothing wrong with it.

While there is a software suite to allow you to tinker with lights, macros and profiles, all the main features can be adjusted directly from the keyboard. There are some profile buttons right on the 1-5 keys, just hold the FN-Shift key to access these functions. The

There’s also a Windows Key lock here, so you don’t end up opening the Start Menu while gaming.

Full multimedia controls are on the top row, allowing for quick volume adjustments.

As well as stop, skip and play/pause buttons here.

This is where things get a little strange, as the keys are not in a standard location. However, by moving some functions here, we can sneak in a numberpad… no seriously.

Instead of print screen, insert, home, page up and down etc being here, it’s actually also the numberpad! I’ve never seen this idea on a TKL keyboard before, but well… it’s pretty clever!

Down here the walking man slows the RGB pattern down while the running man (not to be confused with this one) speeds it up. The up and down keys adjust the overall RGB brightness.

The top of the keyboard appears to be an aluminium panel which has a black coating. However, the edge is cut to reveal a shiny edge, providing it with a nice contrasting look.

There’s also some RGB lights on the edges of the keyboard, which we’ll see in action in a moment.

The cable is hard-wired, but as you saw earlier, it has a nice quality black braiding on it.

On the underside of the keyboard, there are two rubber feet at the front.

There are rubber grips on the wide feet too, so they work flat or deployed. They’re large too, so provide a fair bit of angle should you need it.

As for the switches, I really cannot make out the brand name on them. They look and feel pretty decent though and use a standard fitting and standard cap mounts too, which is certainly a good sign.

The RGB isn’t the brightest, but actually, it’s not the dullest either. That suits me nicely, I don’t want a disco inferno on my desk, and well, when I do, I’ll put my shades on and fire up something with the Corsair name on it. For lighting up the keys and making things look nice though, the Marvo KG934 does a good enough job.

By default it’ll cycle through colours, and the colours themselves are pretty decent. I’m pretty amazed they packed in full per-key lighting at this price range though, that is really impressive.

The side lights add a nice bit of ambient colour too.

Plus, you can play around with the per-key layout with the built-in profiles or custom ones to create more gaming profiles.

Or just have some really funky colour patterns like this.

The KG934 may be an affordable keyboard, but honestly, it’s been much better to use than I expected. The switches feel great, albeit I would say they’re a little more audible than a Cherry MX Blue, as I suspect the keyboard lacks dampening material in the chassis. This doesn’t bother me, actually, I quite like a noisy keyboard. Albeit, others in the room may not, so keep that in mind. I can’t really fault it though, the action is great, the anti-ghosting and N-key work, and it’s been a blast to play some games on this, as it would be any mechanical keyboard.

The keyboard is a little on the thick side at the back, meaning it’s unlikely you’ll ever need the feet on the bottom to increase the angle. However, the light action on the keys is easy on my tired old hands. Throwing a wrist rest on the front wouldn’t be a bad idea either, and you can pick one up for a few quid on Amazon.
