    Really easy to use and rather than razer needing you to download multiple apps just to update and color cordinate things steel series has an all in one app let it be updates settings and color customization they've got it all down plus their app is worth it. I recommend. <3

    absolute dog water. so small and petite. you gotta have baby hands and fingers. God forbid you have any hands or fingers larger than a 10 year old you are going to have problems. I 'm playing COD mw2 and I keep hitting the stupid Q and caps lock bringing up the tac map or throwing my flash bangs lol. I fight this keyboard more than i fight players in the game. The good? the switches are nice and solid, the look is sleek and beautiful, minimalist and the RGB options is nice. But that matters nothing when you are constantly trying to keep your hands on a keyboard no bigger than 2 1/2 peanut butter sandwiches side to side. Taking this back asap and getting something meant for some more adult sized hands. lol.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
