  • Best all around gaming keyboard for the price with no weaknesses
Size: Apex 9 TKL
This keyboard has everything you want for gaming. Only 0.7ms input lag on rtings which is really good. The new optical switches are really consistent and I love how I can switch the actuation point depending on if I'm gaming or typing. The choice between 3 levels of elevation is also nice. For gaming, this is one of the best keyboards you can possibly get. I'm a high-mmr CSGO player and I can tell you this delivers. Your counter-strafing and ability to stop on a dime is amazing. This keyboard can take as many inputs at once as you can press and doesn't have cord splitting or other artifacts. It's true 1000hz polling too. You also have a good USB-C cord that's braided and detachable. You can also keep the tool under the keyboard if you travel to LANs or in general. It's perfect. You also have onboard memory and it's very easy to use the SteelSeries software to configure. It's easy to update firmware as well. The build quality is very good too. They used aluminum in the body and the higher quality PBT keycaps. Also, if anything breaks, you can easily replace the keycaps OR the switches themselves and SteelSeries actively sells replacement parts unlike Logitech for example who only sells switches and not keycaps. There's really nothing I can complain about. The only thing maybe is that some keyboards like the wooting have release triggered as soon as your key starts going back up. However the wooting has slightly more input lag on direct press and CSGO, Valorant, and most games honestly favor new inputs over releasing inputs anyway. Also some keyboards like the Corsair K65 have 8000hz polling rate which is insane. However with that being said, the 8000hz polling and early release triggering from those competitors really aren't a big deal and have their own downsides - especially the 8000hz polling because it can actually take up some more cpu usage so I don't think it's necessarily efficient at the sub 1ms level. Overall, I looked at all of the popular keyboards for gaming in this price range and this one was the best for the price for my setup. I didn't talk much about typing btw but I am a megaracer on typeracer.com and it feels very good to type on in the 1.5mm mode + 7deg incline. If you're looking for a gaming keyboard, look no further, this has literally everything with no downsides. ... show more

  • Good innit
Size: Apex 9 TKL
Been using it for a month now and I'm really happy with it, the build quality is good and it feels really nice when typing, all the keys feel nice and smooth though they are a bit clicky which doesn't bother me much, but be mindful about it if you don't like clicky keyboards. The only things that I didn't like is the space bar being really loud especially when typing fast, other than that the rest of the keys feel nice and the other thing is that the base of the switches is white it just sticks out in a black keyboard. Overall a really good keyboard, would recommend. ... show more

  • Love it
Size: Apex 9 TKL
Best keyboard I've ever owned. Love the key feel, lighting and the app that comes with it. Perfect size too. Not too small not too big. I needed the F keys and darnit I need the PU PD keys! The caps lock key changes color when pressed- nice touch. Keys are easy to remove and clean. Glad I finally have a good keyboard after slacking with the 20 dollar ones. I havent even began to customize it or do macros. Im lazy so I probably wont BUT knowing I can makes me happy. Great buy. ... show more

  • Solid, with a persistant issue on computer startup.
Size: Apex 9 TKL
Held off on making this review just in case it was a software/OS issue, but clearly it's not. Every time I start up my computer, the keyboard does nothing unless I let it sit for several minutes, or unplug it and plug it back in. This doesn't affect anything once it does start working, and it is fairly minor, but it is still a constant design issue, and I seriously doubt the USB connector on the keyboard is really built to handle being used so often, so there's a solid chance that the keyboard stops working sooner than it should, and need to be replaced. ... show more
