We're going to have a closer look at the product guided with the help of lots of photos first. As always, packaging and bundle first. Inside is the keyboard with Cherry MX red keys and analog assisted ones.

Unpacking shows a simple bundle consisting of the keyboard and a manual/warranty guide. The keyboard has RGB backlights on each of the keys, thus per-key functionality that can be dimmed and animated. We'll show you the keyboard powered on over the next few pages of course.

Once we have a better and closer look at the keyboard, the words sturdy and relatively normal comes to mind. The keyboard feels nice and heavy, made with a plastic base with standoffs to raise the back of the keyboard. You'll receive a 1.8m USB cable (3.0) as well as replaceable keycaps, (unfortunately) in the color purple.

The media function keys on the keyboard itself are basic yet functional. The keys themselves are exposed though, simple cleaning works out well with, say, a can of compressed air. You need to like the wide and angular shape. A top brushed aluminum front is nice and brings in a proper premium feel. Other than that, there's quite a bit of glossy plastic happening. BTW I would have loved this keyboard in a low-profile design alright.
