Amazing keyboard
This keyboard is fantastic. The switches are amazing! Great sound without too much noise, smooth as silk, and the ability to adjust is really nice. The lighting is phenomenal, the software works very well, the OLED screen is a total gimmick but an awesome one at that. The magnetic wrist wrest is really nice, too. I've seen some reviews complaining about the stands on this keyboard, and that they collapse with force/when the keyboard is pushed. I do not know what these people are doing, I was very curious when I got it and I just cannot figure out how anyone had issues with the stands collapsing under some force. Overall, an incredible keyboard. I feel it was totally worth the $200 price tag. I have added HyperX pudding double shot PBT keycaps on since and wow I had no idea this keyboard could be even better. Highly recommend those keycaps. It also makes the keyboard sound even better.

SteelSeries Apex Pro – The Keyboard That Makes Typ
Let's start with the obvious: this keyboard looks like it was designed in a secret lab by mad geniuses who also happen to enjoy a good light show. The RGB backlighting is so dazzling, it might just be the closest I’ll ever get to owning a personal disco. If my neighbors ask about the pulsating glow coming from my office at 2 AM, I'll just tell them I've opened a nightclub for ants. But let's talk about the real magic here – the OmniPoint adjustable switches. These things are like the James Bond of keyboards. One second, I'm typing out emails with the finesse of a seasoned novelist, and the next, I'm smashing out commands in my favorite game like a caffeinated cat on a piano. Adjusting the actuation point feels like discovering a secret superpower – one that's just a few clicks away. Comfort-wise, it's like typing on a cloud. A cloud made of highly responsive mechanical switches, but a cloud nonetheless. My fingers have never felt more spoiled. The keys are so smooth, I half expect them to start purring. Plus, the customizable actuation points mean I can switch from writing essays to gaming without feeling like I’m adjusting to a whole new keyboard. It’s like this keyboard just gets me, you know? Now, let's address the elephant in the room: the price. Yes, it’s not the cheapest keyboard out there, but consider it an investment in your happiness, productivity, and general sense of keyboard superiority. Plus, think of all the cool tricks you can show off to your friends. "Hey, want to see something cool? Watch me adjust my actuation points mid-game!" (Cue collective gasps and inevitable keyboard envy.) In conclusion, the SteelSeries Apex Pro isn’t just a keyboard; it’s an experience. Whether you’re a gamer, a writer, or someone who just likes to pretend they’re hacking into the Matrix, this keyboard will make you feel like you’re on top of the world – or at least, like you’ve finally found the perfect typing partner.

Amazing keyboard - perfect upgrade.
I am not a gamer, but I absolutely love this keyboard. I have taken comfort for granted in my office for too long and finally decided to upgrade based on quality. This keyboard is comfortable. The keys feel really good and the pad to rest wrist on is great. The RGB color system is awesome and is pretty easy to customize. The volume control is also welcome. All of these features make this keyboard a no-brainer purchase if looking to make a quality upgrade even if not a gamer. I chose this over the wireless version due to the number pad as well as avoiding any lag times even if brief. Due to my setup the cord is not noticeable enough to bother me. The desktop purchased came with a keyboard, but doesn't come close to the feel and quality of this one.
