Everything I Wanted
The RGB is brilliant, added pudding key caps & it made it even more great. Works perfect but its kinda heavy. On the other hand u can use it as a weapon in case of home invasion. 5 stars!

overall good keyboard but the delete key, shift, tab, caps lock and enter key feel and sound different from the qwerty and numbers.

Solid
Feels solid and premium due to the aluminum body. Typing feels good. Lighting is very bright and you have a couple of customization options. I just wish that the port for the cable was in the middle

So wanted to give 5 star
Never have i had a mechanical keyboard in my life and did not noe how it would feel and how i would distinguish amongst which is better. I went through so many reviews on the internet. Wanted to buy a logitech, either G Pro or G915, but the retailers had been pricing it immensely expensive at 39 - 40K, utter shame. But then after so much research i got on to this new release and all the reviews had one thing about it that was its extremely sturdy design at the price point.I did not like other brands due to1. I like the keys simple nd smooth unlike corsairs.2. the deisgn on the keyboard to be minimalistic3. It to be rugged and sturdy.So i finally bought it @9.3k [ was @8.k a day after :( ] but when i opened this beauty it was absolute pleasure of touch to my hands. This was the most beautiful keyboard for me. But i could not find the so called feel of mechanical keyboards as i had never used one in my life. But a week went by and i kept falling for them. The keys were beauty. I dont noe how long they would last but they feel really good and would like to replace them with double shot PBT once they wear out.The CON:The rgb tool : Its abolutely ridiculous, i cant fix the profile. It by default has 3 profiles, but i cannot overwrite. It works till the software is running on ur device. You cant even close the software; else it goes back to the default profile. That is where i want to cut on the stars.Edit : to the c**ts with with rtfm stuffed up, the in memory profiles is what is required rather than a continuous link to the aided software.

An A-class board after a few tweaks!
I bought this about a month ago to replace my go membrane keyboard, a long due upgrade, I type a lot and game on the side, I watched a few reviews and knew this was a good board with some minor problems, I got lucky and bought it for €70 on amazon warehouse and it came in the box and was perfect apart from a bit of dust.About the boardPros ✅-> Built like a tank, you could probably kill someone with it-> the aqua switches are amazing, they are tactile but soo damn smooth-> I’m not a big rgb guy but damn, it’s impressive, it’s super bright and the floating keycap design is clean->the Function + f key secondary function are very usefulCons❌-> The stabilisers are very rattly but can be fixed if you put a bit of card between the stab housing and the aluminium plate, my implementation is a bit messy on space bar but you can do better than that.-> the keycaps are double shot abs and are a fingerprint oil magnet and get slippy after a while, this is that bad and a cheap Aftermarket keycap set would be a great add on-> the ingenuity software is a Microsoft store exclusive and is fairly basic for such a big pheripherals company,Overall I would definitely recommend thus board if you are too get keycaps for it and do something with the stabilisers.Overall 9/10

Beautiful Keyboard plus Aqua Switches are great!
I've tried cherry blue's, cherry brown's and cherry red's. I thought why not give the hyperx aqua's a try, and they feel amazing. They feel a lot more tactile than cherry brown's, and they feel like they require more force to initially press down, but I love that, it feels great. They're super smooth and the keys are very sturdy. The whole keyboard build quality is excellent and feels very premium. I have replaced the ABS keycaps with the hyperx pudding black keycaps and I wasn't sure at first, but I've grown to love them. The original ABS keycaps look very clean, however the PBT upgrade is nice. However, the only negative's I have are that it is in the US layout (so no pound sign key) and there is the useless menu key on the keyboard (although you can rebind all keys with the, easy to use software). Another thing that wouldn't apply to everyone is the LED's are amazing, apart from the spacebar, where if you're considering buying the hyperX pudding keycaps the spacebar looks a bit darker as there is only one LED bulb in the middle (this is however very much to be expected tbh). Overall 10/10 keyboard, feel amazing and look's clean as hell.

Not a UK layout
Got this keyboard for Christmas but didn't realise it was a US layout and not the UK one which apparently isn't available at all. Unfortunately that isn't something I could live with so regretably returned it and will look for an alternative. That aside, if you're happy to live with that then it's a lovely keyboard and the RGB is great on it. Overall I was disappointed with the layout so will drop a star as this is Amazon UK but the keyboard itself is great if you're happy enough to go with the US layout.

Fantastic Mechanical Keyboard
There is a reason this is so highly rated among YouTubers and other reviewers and you will soon realise that when you use it. The keyboard is much heavier than you think. Superb build quality and for the price is a steal.I bought the Aqua switches and love the feel of them. It is not the quietest keyboard and that isn't a bad thing. What I mean is that if you have been using your office keyboard which will have come with your PC, they are quiet but they are also rubbish which is why they cost £10 and this costs more. I hate using my office keyboard now after buying this and I am giving a lot of thought to getting a mechanical keyboard for the office now.The software you download from HyperX's website makes configuring the keyboard colour pattern easy. It comes with a nice thick braided detachable USB C to USB A cable. My only gripe, well 2 of them actually, is that it comes with ABS keycaps which are fingerprint magnets. I purchased the HyperX Pudding caps which are made of PBT and they don't display the fingerprints now. My 2nd gripe is that it is in an ANSI layout meaning the keys are slightly different to the UK ISO layout. Not an issue if you know your keys but just thought I would point that out. You can replace the keycaps with an ISO layout but I haven't done that yet.Overall cannot rate this keyboard highly enough and I don't think you would be disappointed in your purchase.
