Great response time with each key stroke. Perfect for true gamers

The keyboard worked well for the first year of owning but after one year I’ve noticed that the keys are delayed and no longer seem to be functioning as well. I’ve tried to keep it in good condition but unfortunately the keyboard does not want to function properly anymore.

It improves your gameplay by 20%. Very easy to use.

Amazing keyboard has nice sleek style! Love the feel

I really loved the keyboard but keys started going out in less than a year, and by going out o mean no longer responding in less that a year so im gonna say you could buy a longer lasting keyboard for the same price

Good keyboard for most part. Have had it for about 8 months. Worked well but one tiny spill of water and boom whole keyboard super dead. I mean not even a ton of water like less than an ounce. Broke the whole thing.

I really like the feel of the keys and the typing feel is fantastic. I had it 11 days and it needed to update the firmware. I let it and it ruined itself when it went into a loop were it failed. Luckily I could still return it.

I purchased this on August 14, but didn't reach me until almost a month later. So technically, I haven't own it very long. Honestly, I used it only for two days, because I had to move, I didn't open it until I was settled it. After two days, the keyboard paints are already peeling. It wasn't even use for heavy gaming, more for office work. I immediately put it away after I'd seen the peeling. I'm very disappointed as it's a very costly product.

it is better than the wireless one I had. And I do like the size and easy of use

I love Roccat products and have been waiting for them to make a keyboard that wasn't over the top or using a cherry switch/clone. This finally is that keyboard and it hits all the marks in the best way possible. It is tactile and gives off a great noise, making it a true pleasure to just type on. The switches are so smooth unlike cherry's and give such great feedback both audibly and physically. They have this bounce to them that reminds me of Topre keyboards. The spacebar is stiff unlike so many other keyboards I have used (including Topre ones and practically every mechanical keyboard using a cherry or cherry clone.) The keys are thin and spaced out so not a lot of typos are committed. I feel like I type faster than I ever have before and with much less typos and I just got this today and have only used it for a few hours. Because the keys are spaced out and they use cherry compatible stems it is easy to replace the keys for PBT ones if that's preferred. (Or artisan keycaps, which I will be adding to this. =D ) I may add the PBT caps one day but I honestly love the feel of these key caps. They are definitely ABS but they have this soft feel to them that adds to the pleasure of typing and gives it the slightest amount of grip to keep the typos/miskeys from occurring, making it easier to game with. Even though the keys are spaced out, this board is smaller than a lot of other boards out there. It is light and the magnetic wrist rest is comfortable. It is plastic but it is a soft coated plastic that feels nice to rest the palms on. If another type of wrist rest is preferred it is compatible with others. I imagine this being the easiest keyboard to clean and fingerprint marks will be at a minimum. The volume wheel is very resistant and has a nice tactile click for each step. I wish the aluminum plate was black but it still looks really sleek. The lighting is very clean and can be the brightest keyboard I have ever used. I turned it down to ~30-40% because it was so bright. Right now it looks perfect and though I don't understand the AIMO lighting, it looks really nice. Honestly I bought this to see if I would even like it and I immediately replaced the board that was already on my desk and added the old one to the collection. I collect keyboards and love to talk about them and type on them. This thing blew me away. I have never had a problem with Roccat software and found it easy to use and don't like using software much for keyboards so it is fitting. I am so glad my favorite gaming brand made a keyboard this dang good. Cherry, their clones, and Omron keyboards are blown out of the water by this thing for typing and gaming. Thank you so much, Roccat. Granted, I have only had this for a short time and will definitely update it in the future if my opinion changes or if something goes wrong but I do not think I have had an initial impression quite like this with a keyboard.

This is an amazing keyboard. It's like typing on the best typewriter that was ever made. They keys are concave and feel like any other key. I wasn't sure they would at first. I've owned this keyboard for. The only issue I have is the space bar which will slightly cock to one side or the other as you type, unless you hit it perfectly. Really, that's the only negative and not a big deal at all. It's also the one key you won't be able to replace with an aftermarket keycap. Only the key they designed will fit. The dial for the volume is a nice touch and can be moved easily with a finger. In the beginning I had switched it with a chrome dial from an old amp but eventually I went back to the plastic key and won it's spot on the board. So just a note if that key bothers you it really does a fine job. The look, feel, and functionality is all top notch. It's the best keyboard I've ever used and the lighting is unrivaled. You can find better preprogrammed light shows in a board like alienware but if you update the software at any point, buckle up. Some of your keys might stop working and so on. This software works and you can preset alot of different creations. Most of all though, it's just a pleasure to type on and look at. It's basically a piece of art on your desktop the second you plug it in. The price is high but justified when you compare it to others. The more you compare the sooner you realize mkb can get much more expensive, especially keys, and what you get in the box right here is perfect.

Browns suck, also the keyboard is flimsy an the floating key caps aren’t that special. Overall the keyboard isn’t worth it whatsoever. A roccat fanboy wouldn’t even keep this in comparison to other keyboards out there

Everything was great until after the first 25 minutes of using this keyboard the paint on all of the keys started peeling off and flaking all over the place. For the amount paid this should not be a thing. I will stay away from this brand and return back to razer were clearly my money belongs.

Paint came off after using it for a few days, replaced it TWICE and all of them had the same issue. Too bad such a beautiful keyboard was made so poorly

I thought this would be a good keyboard to go with my new pc & monitor but I had it for one day and the letters started to pee off the keyboard!! Had to return it the same day and get a different brand. Never again.

6 months in and s few keys stopped working out of the blue will not recommend

I love the look of this keyboard and the switches feel nice under my fingers. It is easy to type on with the switch bump at the top but other then that feels a lot like browns. The problem with this keyboard is the software. The software is fine for controlling the RGB but seems incomplete for other functions like profile creation. For example if you create a profile for gaming you cannot set the keyboard to automatically go in to Game Mode. To enter Game Mode you will need to press FN+Scroll so although the profile will change when you launch the game the macro keys and Easy-Shift Key will not be active and the Widows key will still be active until you active Game Mode. It is something you will find in every other vendor's software but not in Roccat's application. But that is just a minor thing the major flaw is support for Windows 64bit. Roccat has released there software with unsigned drivers and that is a major issue. Windows 64bit will not install unsigned drivers and sure you could work around that by disabling security settings in Windows but you shouldn't have to do that. Specifically it is the driver that allows the use of macros, djpnewton/vmulti. The software has been in this state since February of 2018 and although there have been new release of the software since then they have failed to correct this issue. I have some suspicions of why that has happened and with the recent sale of Roccat to Turtle Beach those beliefs have been reinforced. Even though I am giving this keyboard four stars (for build quality) I would not recommend it for these reasons: 1. Software not fully compatible with Windows 10 64bit 2. Software not polished and not properly maintained by Roccat 3. No onboard memory so software must be up and running at all times 4. Roccat recently sold to Turtle Beach (March 2019) so product line and future support is a concern Nice keyboard but proceed with caution.

Purchased this item for my son for Christmas and within three weeks the keys popped off and it was duplicating letters

This is my absolute favorite keyboard I've ever owned. I've had 4 different mechanical keyboards over the years, and this one is by far the best. I was a bit wary because the switches aren't Cherry MX, but they are a brown switch made by Roccat and I think they feel better than MX Browns. The construction is really solid with a metal backplace, but the keyboard is the thinnest mech I've ever used (or even seen.) this results in a very comfortable typing experience for me, as I like my keyboards to lay flat. I love the look of the keycaps and the completely exposed switches and LEDs underneath. Also, the volume knob is such a nice addition. My only complaint with this keyboard is the software used to program it. The backlighting options are limited and the macros only seem to work right some of the time.

I bought it 6 months ago and letter A is not working anymore :(
