Excellent keyboard for the money

Why did you choose this product over others?:Needed a new keyboard having been stuck with a cheap mechanical one with some very sketchy blue switches for too long. Aided with some handy vouchers from work I decided to splurge. The screen on this keyboard is a gimmick but also nice to have a clock available when in a game/watching something full screen and you've once again misplaced your watch - screen is excellent quality and can have GIFs looping on it however does require the supporting software to be open/running which isn't worth the effort unless you want to show off.Weight:Surprisingly heavy, albeit my only previous experience with mechanical keyboards was with fairly cheap and nasty ones whereas this keyboard feels well made and solidValue for money:Excellent value for money, switches have a nice sound and feels very nice to type on.Battery life:No idea, only ever used it plugged in so could be good but might not be. Might try it one day but never far enough from the desk to justify itBuild quality:Really good, whole keyboard is solid and well put together. Switches feel good, as do keycaps. Screen is surprisingly good. Feel:A joy compared to every other keyboard I've ever used.

This is an amazing keyboard, I hope it works for a long time and has no issues!

I am using this on both my Mac and my PC and it switches over seamlessly when using the wired and bluetooth connections, the keys sound great, are super smooth and give a really satisfying sound, the board is heavy and feels planted.The colour screen is a bit of a novelty but I can see it helping in the future, nice to have some proper settings which don't leave it all up to key combinations. Overall this keyboard is just quality, great at everything and I will test it over time and hope it keeps it up!! Well worth the money.Coming from a Keychron K4 v2

I’m in love!

Amazing keyboard, sounds gorgeous, looks even better and a great price. The only con is that the keyboard has the 2 wrong where you would press it for “ but it still does this, when you press the 2 but in the keycap it shows the @ symbol. But this is only a minor cosmetic issue and you can buy key caps of this annoys you.The little screen is brilliant, even if it is a bit of a gimmick.I love the fact you can connect via Bluetooth, wireless 2.4ghz or wire.I used to have the Logitech G915 and I must say I think this is a better keyboard.So as my title says, I love this keyboard!! It looks and feels great.

Great keyboard with some gimmick features

First of all I want to say that this is my first mechanical keyboard and I am loving it! I love the sound and that its a bit heavy so it sits in a place, I also love the quality of the keyboard, it feels premium. The knob itself feels premium as well and it has a little bit of resitance when turning it around.The LCD display I think is gimmick, there are 2 issue I am having. The time is never synced with the PC time, I have tested this across multiple devices, and while you can manually set it yoursef, the next time you start the PC the time is out of sync again. The volume control is out of sync as well, the volume bar does not correspond with the volume bar on PC so you might end up having max volume on the keyboard but low volume on PC itself. While it looks nice, if I were to buy the keyboard again or recommend it to a friend I would go with the version without the LCD panel.The software is a bit lacking as well, it feels cheap and I would welcome a button to sync keyboard to PC (time, volume)

It's great!

I've had 3 RK keyboards and none of them have had any trouble. This one feels like a really premium product and has exceptional sound and typing feel. Keycaps it comes with are brilliant quality too.

Amazing value for money and quality keyboard

Value for MoneyThe quality of keyboard you get for the price is outstanding. I spent a long time researching good mechanical keyboards and decided to go with this based on other reviews. I have not been disappointed. You could easily spend double the price to get a keyboard that isn't as good.Ease of UseVery easy to use, the LED screen makes things quick. The software is easy to install if you want to customize the keyboard functionality.ConnectivityVery simple to switch connections. I have 3 different devices paired with Bluetooth and only takes a second or two to switch. You can use the keyboard in wired mode when needing to charge the keyboard .SizeTypical size you would expect for this type of keyboard, nothing additional that is unnecessary or that will take up extra space on your desk.WeightNot the lightest keyboard but not overly heavy either.
