    I usually only purchase keyboards, mice etc when my old one is worn out, I have that if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it attitude, when I purchased this I didn’t even realise it was one of those clickity clackity keyboards but honestly it feels so satisfying to type with it, it’s extremely comfortable for typing and gaming. It’s insane the amount of customisation you can have with the LED lights, make sure you download Dragon Center to your PC to customise the lights and get the most out this keyboard!

    This keyboard and mouse is very well built and I quite like the fact that the keyboard has rubber grips on the underside of it too help stop it moving around on the desk the mouse feels quite comfortable to hold the keyboard has lots of features most of which are unnecessary and will hardly ever be used I find this to be an average keyboard and mouse which is no better or worse than other makes on the market only this has a premium brand name and as such comes with a premium price tag

    If you want a smaller mechanical keyboard that still has F-Keys, just buy this. Best in the range for its price imo

    The keyboard and mouse are very responsive. The best part is you can dim or switch off the lights completely.

    Value for money!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our Usershe keyboard itself is great just the right size and not taking up loads of room on the desk, keys are nice and click and a slight tactile feel to them and the windows key can be locked on the left side for gaming.
    Only downside I can come up with and it’s nothing that’s major is that on custom mode in mystic light the hash key stops lighting up when doing per key lighting and that the keycaps pick up oils from your fingers really easy other than that a really good keyboard for gaming and typing.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersI loved this keyboard right up to the moment that my son stole it from me!

    Typing on the keyboard takes some getting used to after using a cheapo keyboard for such a long time. The keys feel nice it sort of reminds me of a type writer back in the day!
    The way the keyboard and mouse all light type brings a nice novelty feel which I feel makes my desk and computer set up look very gamer like.
    I think for the price, especially after black Friday I am quite happy.

    Amazing keyboard and mouse combo

    After building my PC, my son took a liking to my new keyboard and mouse… I was so impressed with them myself, I bought them again for him… Being Mechanical Membrane means you get the responsiveness of the mech switches, without the loud clicking… The mous is highly responsive and perfect for getting that accuracy needed to win games…

    Very happy with the feel of the keys and easiness of changing the LEDS on the KB. Nice and small as TKL so more space on the desk.

    I both for xbox series x. Buttons are small and unconfortable and sometimes gives u an insult but that the best keyboard i ever used. This is something il not gonna change in 10 years from buying right now and maybye have some – but by idea this is what you wanna have on a table.

    its small compact and if you work from home and play games like me you kinda eat lunch at your desk. ok well i do! so if i get crumbs they fall out real easy like also the MSI osftware you can customise the keystroke effects . its a great little keyboard for what it is.

    Got this to replace my Razor Black Widow v3 as it was causing issues with characters doubling up at random times when typing. Not too bad an issue with words, but caused a lot of problems with figures being wrong in spreadsheets.

    This keyboard is great though. The lighting options could be better, but on the whole a much better device.

    Standard keycaps so easy to swap out those supplied. The feel is not as good as say browns but you do get some feedback. All in all, a good solution for the five of us who still smoke (mechanicals have a strong aversion to ash!). My only criticism involves the feet at the rear, which are way too low for a good typing position.

    The keyboard and mouse itself are fine the rgb works and controls by the mystic light software in the operating system , I purchase this to use with games like Valhalla , Legion, Division. The mystic light works for the leds in the pc case but doesn’t control the mouse and keyboard in game it just seems to turn the lights off during game, as far as I can tell it should also control the keyboard as well.

    High quality and durability. Spilled a few drinks on it and dropped it more then a few times and still functional like new. LEDs are bright and highly customisable too

    Good quality, strong build, nice touch response . Lighting works well with dragon center . Positive feedback on both keyboard and mouse

    This was bought for my grandson, who had an MSI gaming PC for his main present and he was delighted with it. Seems chunky, sturdy and fits in well with the PC’s colour lighting.

    Really happy with this mouse and keyboard, it’s a middle range but do the job perfectly.
    Great value price!

    Swapped from a wireless cuz they keep failing me. This one is amazing, got it to match my msi motherboard. It types nicely, I don’t care if its loud, mechanical keyboards always will be, this on is slightly quieter I suppose. If u have dragon center on ur pc u can set it so the colour of the mouse and keyboard match the light on ur pc or have it as literally any other colour. 10/10, love this keyboard for league of legends

    The customisations for the lights is great, the sound is nice but mainly the low profile keys and metal plate just look incredibly stylish. It doesn’t scream “look at me I’m a giant virgin” like all other mechanical keyboards.

    You can’t hear the key tapping in headphones but outside they still sound nice.

    You can’t add O rings to make them quite though so bare that in mind.

    I love how easy and user friendly this keyboard is! You can change the colours easily with the MSI Dragon Centre. It clicks (a bit like a mouse) every time you press a key and I personally find it very satisfying, but others may not.

    5.0 out of 5 stars MSI Dragon Centre is required to change the colour.

    Having never used a mechanical keyboard, and professionally having used low profile chiclet membrane keyboards for years, I was apprensive about making the switch the a mechanical keyboard, both because of the height difference and their noisiness compared to laptop style keyboards.

    Happy to report that i’m glad i made the switch. This keyboard isn’t significantly higher profile than your chiiclet style boards, and while it’s significantly louder than a membrane board, it’s not obnoxious like some other mechanical keyboards. I’ve also found that my typing has been improved by the responsive tactile feel of the keys, the feel of the ‘click’ is much more intuitive for typing.

    In terms of quality and design, it looks fantastic. The brushed aluminium is clean and gives the board a decent weight whilst not being too heavy, the keys are soft and have an almost velvety texture. The basic lighting functions are good, but the dragon software for customising the lighting is great, and easy to use. The brightness setting aat it’s highest is more than bright enough to type/game in total darkness.

    one thing i will note, depending on your PC’s security settings the F1 function to launch afterburner will not work if you have UAC settings at default. Somewhat annoying, but it’s not a huge deal to open the program like you would any other.

    Overall, I’m happy i made the switch.

    Buttons are more clunky than I’d like. It’s ok for gaming but couldn’t use for typing etc as makes hands sore.

    I was pleasantly surprised with the price of this keyboard, but it is remarkably good. There are not macro keys like you would get on a more expensive keyboard, but then again, my current one cost me 100 more and has macro keys and is not low profile, yet I don’t think it is 100 better.
    This keyboard feels well built, keys feel good, very lightweight and fit for purpose.
    If I was being incredibly picky, the only thing I would say is I would like the MSI logo to be in the RGB scheme rather than just etched onto the keyboard! But that is me trying to find something wrong with this when there is not really.

    Good budget keyboard for gaming but not heavy gaming. Not recommending for writing. Keyboard is extremely noisy. Level of noise is so big that you can hear clicking even wearing headphones. Materials used is high quality. Basklight presets are nice and controlled via Dragon App for MSI. Keyboard is ergonomic enough. Rubber foots doing their job you will not chaise keyboard on your desk.
