I love this keyboard! I am a photographer who shares a space in the office with my wife, so having to send emails might be distracting however the sound of me striking the keys are relatively quiet. The feel of the keys are pretty sleek and are arched for a unique feeling. Build feels strong as well. Can cut off lights if too distracting. Highly recommend even if not a gamer!

I recently purchased a new keyboard and mouse combo, and I’m really pleased with the performance and overall quality. The keyboard has a comfortable layout with responsive keys that feel great for both typing and gaming. It’s quiet, yet tactile enough to give good feedback. The backlighting is a nice touch and makes it easy to use in low-light settings.

Best Budget 40$ Keyboard

I got this keyboard from my parents as a Christmas gift. It is the best keyboard I ever owned. There are nice rgb lights that you can change. If your a gamer I recommend the game mode option at the top where you change the rgb effects. Overall I think this keyboard is a great budget rgb 40$ keyboard.

This is a great gaming keyboard for those on a budget. The keyboard has some weight to it, and the keys have a nice tactile feel. RGBs are really nice and bright with different color options to cycle through.
This membrane keyboard is *slightly* quieter than a mechanical keyboard with tactile switches. Keyboard has a thocky sound to it, kind of like breaking Minecraft dirt blocks.

Hubby loves it! He's been using it for about a month now. He wanted something like this for the fun colors. This is plug-n-play, no software or settings controls required. It gives the option to easily change the color scheme, which he does periodically. And late at night, he doesn't have to keep the overhead room light on, because he can see the keyboard - being backlit (under-lit?) is a definite plus. This keyboard is also non-slip, it has grips on the bottom so it stays where it is put. All his previous keyboards moved a bit while he was using them, but this one doesn't. Well worth the price. I highly recommend.

Game from a Logitech G-15. Became interested in RBG keyboards after seeing some PC setups. Aesthetically, they look awesome so I did my research. Wanted a keyboard under $50. The two that consistently came up were the Corsair 55 and the HyperX one. Corsair 55 reviews came out on top every time but personally, the RBG on the HyperX looked amazing to me. Plus I don’t need to customize my light setup, or need macros. I love how it’s plug and play, has some media keys and the board itself feels and looks dynamite. Keyboard is super quiet to me and feels like butter typing. Highly recommended. Plus I got it on sale! Most likely will buy another.

The Key board has a solid frame, and the colors that light up are amazing w many customizable options that don't require you to program it on your computer. The key board itself is structured well with the "gel" or membrane, providing a satisfying feel. Besides that, the price is what really sells, an affordable option for those who want to save some cash in a very expensive world of PC (or console if youre wild). WOuld recommend for people who are starting in MnK gaming!

Purchased solely for a gaming rig so I wanted something that felt like it would last a while and was responsive. There's quite a bit of travel for the keys so my fidgety hands aren't accidentally pressing keys. It's real sturdy and considering the price well built. I'm not too sure about all of the shortcut and remote keys because I don't use them.
Although I don't use it for writing, it feels comfortable enough for lengthy use. The RGB feature is pretty customizable, but RGB isn't for me--if it's you're thing, this is a go to.
Unless the cable gives out, I have a feeling this will last for years.

Coming from mechanical, this will surprise you..!!

This keyboard will truly surprise you. I'm coming from a mechanical keyboard for which I paid roughly 6x the price of this keyboard. The main reason I wanted to go away from mechanical was because I've been working from home for the past year (like many people) and have to attend a lot of meetings online. The mechanical keyboard was quite loud even with the silver switch and I would get really conscious typing on it while talking with other people. So, I was looking for a keyboard that would still have somewhat of that mechanical feel but would be quieter. I first tried as many mechanical keyboards that I could get my hands on at the store but then I saw this on the side and started typing. At first, I thought this was a very silent mechanical keyboard. Then I learned that it wasn't mechanical at all. Wow! This was the one I was looking for.
I got this and can tell you that it feels awesome to type on. It is better than my $180 corsair keyboard (to type on). The RGB lighting on this unit is excellent as well and although it's not up there with corsair, I don't really miss anything. For gamers out there, I know a lot of you are looking for mechanical keyboards because that's the default now for gaming, but I urge you to try this. I haven't felt any difference in gaming with this and I can't help but think that I was probably needlessly spending money going after mechanical keyboards for the past decade because I play games occasionally.
Anyway, mechanical or not, this is a fantastic all purpose keyboard. Good for typing, good for gaming, and fantastic RGB which lets me dim the lights at night. Give it a shot.

The gaming keyboard I recently tried offers exceptional performance with responsive keys, customizable RGB lighting, and a durable build. The mechanical switches provide a satisfying click, making it perfect for both gaming and typing. The ergonomic design reduces strain, and the software for key mapping is easy to use. Overall, it's a solid investment for serious gamers.

My first RGB keyboard.

I will start by saying in certain modes, this unit does have a slight squealing sound to it. I can't hear it over the fans of my desktop, so it's not an issue for me. The keyboard other than is fantastic. I only keep it on a certain tint of green to match my desktop lighting and other PC peripheral lighting. It's easy to use and has a nice weight to it that resists slipping around. I've never had an RGB keyboard or even one that is backlit for that matter, so this thing is awesome for me.

Soft, silent, intuitive, value RGB keyboard!

Got this keyboard after my Tecware Spectre Pro RGB Keyboard because I couldn't stand it.
The keys on the keyboard feel really soft and aren't tall. I noticed I make much less mistypes because of the shorter height and the softer, stickier material the keys are made out of. I can't emphasize enough that the noise is very silent compared to mechanical keyboards. Instead of hearing that annoying in-your-face "clicking and clacking" sound from mechanical keyboards you hear a light "thump" and much more suppressed "clack" which is far more tolerant to hear if you're more noise conscious.
No software! No need to worry about any intrusive privacy policies and etc! While you can't program every single key, there are plenty of modes that you can customize sections of the keyboard to 9 different colors in the "5 zone" mode and for other modes you can adjust the speeds. It feels like you get more than enough options to be happy. If you are looking for the absolute most detailed key-by-key RGB configurations than this keyboard isn't for you. However, if you like basic to intermediate RGB modes and customization than this keyboard is for you. The RGB configuration is very intuitive and easy to setup. The two top left keys control brightness/turn off RGB and to adjust the RGB modes. You use Fn+ F1-F5 and Fn + arrow keys to do all the adjustments.
One of the top three left keys has a "gamer mode" which disables the windows key so when you're in-game you don't accidentally interrupt your game from fat fingering the windows key. It replaces the scroll lock light which I think is more useful since when was the last time anyone cared to know if scroll lock was enabled lol.
$50 goes A LONG WAY with this keyboard!!!

Solid piece of gear. Heavy base, so it doesn't slide around, which is what I need. Keys are just a little smaller than my last one but I will have to adapt to that. RGB controls are easy. Software from this mfr is absolutely terrible. Will not install and crashes when trying to load. Otherwise, this is an excellent keyboard, value priced.

Reliable, Quiet Membrane Keyboard

For a membrane keyboard the HyperX Alloy Core RGB is awesome. The RGB looks great. It's is smooth, evenly lit, and diffused.
Wife is happy because the membrane keys are quiet compared to the clickity-clack of the mech keyboard it was sadly forced to replace.
Doesn't have the satisfying tactile feel of a mechanical keyboard, but this membrane model is a lot more responsive than most.
The price is right and the media keys are nice to have.

I'm not a gamer but wanted a backlit keyboard for my desktop in a dark bedroom and this fit the bill perfectly without breaking the bank! Looks awesome and I like having rasied keys again, unlike the keyboard that comes with most desktops lately.

Great keyboard. The keys are light but not too light where it feels flimsy. It has a great height so its easy to type and the colors are very nice. The keyboard itself is heavier so it doesn't move around ever and its very sturdy. Very satisfied with this purchase (for the price I got it when it was on sale).
