[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great little keyboard. I needed it for a monitoring station on my rack, perfect key responsiveness, brightly lit, and RGB colors. What could be better.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great keyboard. I have been using it at work with both a Macbook and a Lenovo laptop with no issue. I have even had the dubious pleasure of favorably testing it's spill resistance. Very portable, lights are very pretty, and great tactile feel.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This keyboard feels right and is fun to type on.The colors are fine, but you can turn them on and off if they become too distracting.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] New Desktop is really fast but bloatware is annoying (popups). That said I'm able to play new games are ultra settings and have had no issues getting my programs installed or up and running. Only issues have been with accessories not working great with the lighting control, even when it's a Lenovo keyboard I've had to default back to Windows Dynamic Lighting. But no other real complaints, very happy with this upgrade and got a great deal. Don't miss out on the Lenovo rewards as you can pick up some great accessories with those rewards for free!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This wired gaming keyboard provides a good typing experience without taking too much desk space. As there aren't much videos out there about this, maybe this can help you decide if you wan to buy it.
Pros
+ The adjustable lights are absolutely stunning and beautiful for such a cheap price.
+ The included wire feels good (not cheap) and is detachable, which makes transport much easier, and you can use another wire potentially.
+ The keyboard has a usb-c port (unlike other keyboards that use micro usb)
+ The brown switches are nice and tactile, not too loud as well compared to other switches.
+ Full size function keys
+ Full size arrow keys
+ Good key travel -> comfortable writing experience
+ Good typing angle (if you have the correct typing posture since there's no arm rest)
+ Keycap puller included (but no additional keys)
Cons
- Lenovo Accessories and Display Manager: The instructions do not tell you, but you need LADM to change the color of the keyboard. I thought that the keyboard was broken as I could not switch the colors and lighting. You have to download LADM and connect your keyboard. There, you'll see your keyboard, click on it, and you can see an option called windows dynamic lighting. Disable it (or something) and the function keys to change your keyboard colors and lighting will work. You can also use LADM as your main app to change your keyboard colors more easily. This happened for me, not sure if anyone else had this happened to them.
LADM: https://support.lenovo.com/in/en/downloads/ds566167-ladm-for-windows-11-windows-10-and-woa (the 120 mb file should be Lenovo Accessories and Display Manager (LADM) for Windows 10 or above)
- Although you can deactivate the windows command button, you cannot disable the windows copilot button or map it to something else. I had to uninstall Copilot, so it just opens windows home, but it is still annoying.
- The lighting looks a little weird in certain areas as the keys are transparent, but this is very minor. Just something I had in my mind at first.
Conclusion
- If you're looking for a budget gaming keyboard, look no further than this. If you can get it on sale (~$50), then absolutely get it. Wished they talked about LADM in the instructions.
