SteelSeries Releases APEX 150 RGB Gaming Keyboard

SteelSeries is announcing the new APEX 150 gaming keyboard which is a lot more affordable than most. However, that does not mean it lacks some features. In fact it has a full 104-key layout, 5-zone RGB LEDs, custom switches, and is spill resistant.

SteelSeries Quick Tension Switches

A superior alternative to typical membrane keyboard solutions, the APEX 150 makes use of custom Quick Tension switches. Although not a true mechanical switch per-se, it is nonetheless a hybrid alternative for consistent key presses. In fact, it is perfectly ideal for low friction use and has extended durability expected of a gaming keyboard over typical membrane-based solutions. The Apex 150 even has an iron plate located at the base, uniquely designed membrane sheet, and custom molded POM compound top housing inserts.

Anti-Ghosting Features

Like any decent gaming keyboard, players expect the APEX 150 to have some anti-ghosting behaviour. This is an issue with membrane keyboards unless the matrix layout overcomes bottlenecking. The APEX 150 actually has a 24-key rollover feature so that the gaming cluster inputs register without a hitch.

SteelSeries Engine

Since the APEX 150 has RGB LED backlighting, additional controls are available via the SteelSeries Engine software. Users can even use the LED as a notification for the integrated apps such as Discord, CS:GO, DOTA2, audio visualizer and more.

Pricing and Availability

The APEX 150 is now available for only $49 USD.
