    Great for transitioning from console to PC

    I bought this as I was transitioning from console to PC, made it 10x easier to get used to playing KnM(Keyboard and mouse). Now I exclusively use it for shooters(Overwatch and COD:WZ), but for story type games like GTA I've gotten used to full keyboard thanks to it.

    Have only used it a few times since purchase. Mode button is placed in a funky spot making it easy to change modes. No real easy shift function to easily change between two layouts... Good quality and works, just not how I expected.

    Appears some buttons sticking but does not appear to be “physically sticking” possible is a software issue. Having to press button for a second time for command to release.

    Althought the quality of this product was very good, I didn't find myself wanting to use it more than my keyboard. I would definitely recommend trying to find a place to try out this product before buying it.

    Great gap closer for console to PC transfer

    I purchased the Tartarus Pro specifically because it had a toggle for movement. I’ve played console for nearly 3 decades now, and just recently decided to start playing on PC. One of the biggest reasons I never started PC gaming earlier was the need to learn a new, and relatively unfamiliar movement system. I’ve tried FFXIV, WoW, and Destiny 2 so far and it worked great for all 3.

    It has great potentials if you know how to use it. All keys can be programmable to anything you want. All great things but you learn how to use it. Also, I have small hands so I am not able to reach top keys..... so I give 4 rating.

    This is an amazing keypad is you really want a D-pad with better comfort from a keyboard. The linear switches are buttery smooth and an absolute joy to use. I haven't used the analog features yet, but they seem very useful under certain use-cases, such as driving games. Wish it had the same adjust abilities as my Orbweaver, but it's now just a matter of getting used to the new setup. It really compliments my Huntsman Elite.

    Anyone flying flight sims with even basic complexity will benefit from one of these. The macros are easy to program and can be assigned to every key. Key maps can be color coordinated for easy individual control/key combinations.

    Well made keypad. Layout is awkward for larger hands though. Wrist has to bend at a strange angle. A slightly larger and flatter layout would have been better for my size hand

    Very weird device

    I dont like this product, its very weird. The joystick doesn’t work well. Its not an actual joystick. The keycaps are just numbers, which is very confusing, this should be provided with: caplocks, shift, escape key, ext. you cannot press down on the joystick to jump. The hand doesn’t rest well on the keypad. This device is very difficult to set up. Super complicated.

    Honestly No Complaints. Use it as a macro keyboard for binding actions to while I code so my use case is certainly one-off.

    This works. Has an extra row of buttons. Razor app sux, it's "heavy" - wants you signed in to use (make account or sign in as "guest" and uses a lot of system resources - which would lead you to believe this would prevent conflicts - it doesn't. As a stand alone device it's ok - using with joystick/throttle/pedals means lots of time in fine tuning\disabling\re-enabling etc. I unplugged it for now so I could fly. Basically - Good as stand alone / with multiple devices it takes a bit of device management experience.
