Great TLOTR collector's keyboard.
This TKL keyboard certainly delivers on the TLOTR feels. I have an all-black setup (desk, mouse pad, speaker set, and monitor) so this Black Speech edition is right at home. The keyboard feels premium and due to its anodized aluminum case is quite heavy. I appreciate the adjustable height back feet. The Training Black Speech kit printing is very clear, although the common writing is very tiny, and in some cases, such as with CAPS, ctrl, Alt, functions, etc., the description is at the bottom which is almost impossible to see. I love all the references, especially the Eye of Sauron on the board, the red Shards of Narsil enter keycap, and the One Ring inscription on the spacebar keycap. I wish they would have included a translation for the other keys. Hopefully the printing will last for a long time. While this is not marketed as a gaming keyboard, I would’ve liked to have a different set of WASD keycaps included. The great thing is that there are custom sets available out there (I am looking at those beautiful artisan keycaps!). The MT3 Dye-sublimated PBT keycaps seem to be well made and feel good to the touch. The keys are concave which is great for people who have trimmed nails, but not so much for long nails. Originally, I was confused as to why there were no f and j markers, but soon realized that these keys are much deeper than the others, which I ended appreciating. This concave design is taking me some time to get used to, as I noticed my accuracy and speed have suffered, but somehow still enjoy the typing experience. The typing experience is highly subjective. This keyboard features yellow Holy Panda X Switches, which are very linear with no “bump”. While this is not my preference (I prefer brown linear), I am warming up to them. They have a more “bassy” thud sound. The Drop Phantom Stabilizers work well, as I noticed no wobble at all. They also feel well-lubed. I would have liked a bit more dampening and a softer feel, though. While the typing experience is decent, it is unfortunate that the switches are soldered, which takes away from it being an enthusiast's keyboard. It is worth mentioning that there are no media controls, such as a volume rocker. My main complaint is that the LED backlight is terrible. It is weak, north-facing, and is obstructed by the caps. It would have been nice if the light would come through the lettering. It is also disappointing that the white lighting cannot be changed to say, red, as this would have immensely added to the Mordor aesthetic. Overall, this is a plain mechanical keyboard with minimal features that performs well. However, as a LOTR collector item, it is gorgeous and any enthusiast would certainly be proud to have it on display.
