    Love the option to change the colors of the keys. Perfect sized keyboard, the keys feel nice and sturdy. The wrist rest attachment is a great extra feature, just needs to be setup in the right spot since it’s magnetic and can slide around a bit

    Originally, I had the basic keyboard that came with my PC. However, I decided to go with this keyboard as a little gift for myself. It's amazing, I was comparing this keyboard with Hyper X's keyboard. They were in the same price range, but what sold me was the waterproof element and the magnetic attachment board for your wrist. I love the way the keys sound when you press on them, and they are evenly spaced so the color pops through. Overall, I really recommend this as a starter gaming keyboard especially in the price range in comparison to Hyper X. I even asked some of my PC gaming friends, and they all approved this purchase, stating this was a better choice than Hyper X for its price range!

    I love this keyboard, especially that it comes with a wrist rest. It has a downloadable software to control many functions, I use it mainly for the color control lol. My son has this same keyboard in the smaller more gamer type version and he loves his as well. SteelSeries products are always a hit with my family, I'm sure you'll love it as well!

    I recently upgraded to a mechanical gaming keyboard, and it’s been a total game-changer. The tactile feedback and satisfying clicks make every keypress feel amazing, whether I’m gaming or typing. The customizable RGB lighting not only looks cool but also helps me keep track of keybinds in darker settings. It’s built like a tank, so I know it’ll last, even with my intense gaming sessions. Honestly, I didn’t realize how much a good keyboard could improve my overall experience until I started using this one.

    To begin I am not an expert at all in keyboards and I’m also just beginning to do pc gaming. The keyboard feels durable and the wrist rest thing is awesome and magnetic so if it’s not your thing you can remove it. As soon as it was plugged in I could download the app and edit my configuration which was easy to do as well. You can hear the clicking but it’s not obsessively loud and makes it fun to type. Overall for the price I believe it’s a good deal

    Got this as a gift and its perfect for my needs. The size is just right and it has the extra 10 keys (number keys on right side) that I wanted. It is pretty quiet and I love the lights. I have always liked the Steel Series products that I have gotten over the years and was not disappointed in this lastest item.

    I bought this for a friend of mine and from what he’s told me, it’s a great keyboard! He had an older gaming keyboard that he used with his laptop, and since I recently built him a new PC, I thought it would be nice for him to have a new keyboard to go along with it. The overall feel of the keys are very nice and very responsive, I was almost jealous and almost got myself one after using it for a little while, while at his house Additionally, at the price point it’s currently at, it’s a bargain for the amount of performance it offers. I highly recommend it for anyone looking to get a new keyboard and have a lower budget.

    For the price and size its a really good keyboard. Keys never have any issues, they are relatively quiet. RGB is nice, not like the overly excessive ones. Wrist rest is useful and when I don't need it is just comes off. To summarize, its really worth the price.

    Perfectly good keyboard - I ended up returning it, but only because it was not what I was looking for. It was a bit too high-profile for me. Otherwise, the RGB lighting was great, the keyboard was neat, the keys were pretty quiet. I'd definitely recommend for someone who doesn't mind slightly taller keys. Especially at that price point, it was a great keyboard.

    I love this keyboard because I no longer disturb anybody during the late night hours while people are asleep unlike other keyboards I had in the past. Nobody even knows that I’m on my computer typing or gaming anymore. Awesome purchase worth the money.

    I love the keyboard sound, its clicking actually brings me a level of satisfaction I didn't know I liked. I do love the program with it to help me key bind for gaming and help with the level of sensitivity with the keyboard as well as the LED and the detachable arm rest that comes with it, I find that to be handy when moving my keyboard around. I use it for mostly gaming and this has been wonderful to use. I do not neccesarily like the fact its wired and thats my only complaint. However for the pricing and the use I am using it for its worth the money!

    I’m glad to pick this SteelSeries RGB keyboard, the lighted keys work really well. Also I have a SteelSeries wired mouse that uses the same configuration software which was a plus. Recommend it.

    Works great! not distracting and the colors are fun. I had best buy points I wanted to use so I got this and I like it. Not a gamer, I just found it interesting to set the colors to change. happy with it, thinking about buying another one for my work office. Also, not too expensive. Put the word "gaming" on a keyboard and the price usually gets absurd.

    Its quieter than my black widow v3. Its not quite as nice as the apex pro, but it gets the job done Its still quite responsive despite not being a mechanical keyboard. If you need a keyboard for typing at work quietly, then this is a good keyboard to have. Otherwise the apex 3 is a nice keyboard for either work or gaming.
