BENGOO Gaming Keyboard, RGB LED Rainbow Backlit Small Wired Keyboard with 89 Keys and Multimedia Shortcus,Mechanical Feeling Keyboard with 25 Anti-ghosting Keys for Computer Gamer PC Mac

I had no idea this keyboard had as many features as it has! I'm not kidding, with 12 different light cycles ranging from solid colors to the colors pulsing with each cycle having 4 speeds to choose from, that's 48 options! (I've added the best description I can below of these settings) And with the spin of the knob at the top right of the keyboard, it makes it super easy to choose any one of them to customize your experience to whatever preference or setting you're in. And with the click of a button, that same knob becomes the volume knob for your setup - amazing!The keys feel really smooth and are super responsive, which is a must for any game or typing in general. The keyboard itself has a really nice tilt angle built in, but the flip up brackets on the bottom add that extra tilt I personally need. The flip up brackets also have a nice grip on the bottom, which I was worried about because I have an XL mouse pad covering my desk, but it was no issue and doesn't move anywhere.This is a very well rounded keyboard that's functional in so many small ways and visually incredible!Light options:Solid colors (red, blue, green, purple, aqua, yellow, and white) each with four brightness options (low light to bright light)Lighting up left to right (green, blue, aqua, green, yellow) with four brightness optionsKeyboard lights up when you press individual keys or type - four different patterns/optionsLight switches between all solid colors mentioned above with four speed options (this one is my favorite - it reminds me of a light in a swimming pool)Sweeping effect from right to left (looks almost like a wave) with four speed optionsPulsing effect between all solid colors with four speed options

This keyboard is great if you have limited desk space, though has a few oddities:PROs:-Fits almost full functionality into a compact footprint (only 14 inches / 37cm wide)-Has decent key feel - it is NOT a mechanical keyboard, but has good response and no ghosting issues.-Has a good weight / quality - the board stays in place, and feels solid.-Surprisingly good backlights for the price--The knob in the top right doubles as a light control and volume knob (press Fn+knob to switch between)--Tapping the knob while in lighting mode cycles through modes, spinning increases/decreases intensity.-Has a WinLock function to disable the stupid windows key - definitely a plus!Overall, it's perfect if you need a compact board like in a keyboard tray in a desk, the numpad+arrows take a little adjusting to, but still a great buy for the price!CONs:-NumLock replaces right CTRL...definitely not a good replacement.-There is no PrintScreen key (as far as I've been able to find)-The cord is a little on the short side (~5ft / 1.5m)

I needed a small keyboard to go on my lap desk but wanted a number pad and right hand arrows. This seemed like a good compromise to all the options I had out there. There were a few keys I really wish hadn't been cut though. There is no Print Screen even buried in the FN options. The Delete key is there but in such a weird place as an FN key I never use it anymore. Overall though, the keys feel good, the light is great, its an awesome compact design imo, but the reason I knocked off a star is the key wear. I will say this is my everyday at home keyboard. So doing some math, I have had this keyboard for about 6 months and have racked up around 600hrs on ESO in that time (the game that I use WASD on) and the keys are way more worn down than I would expect in that little bit of time. I'll attach a picture but basically the keys are transparent plastic with a solid coating so the light comes through the letters, but the wear on that coating makes the letters and the light that shines through look like smudges... The picture says it all. If you care about the looks of this thing and game enough you might wear some of the keys down you will get ugly smudge keys too. Overall I am happy, Function is everything I expect. But the wear isn't pretty. If you need certain keys take a look at the very non standard layout is the only other Astrik.

This keyboard is very aesthetically pleasing as far as the RGB and the switch sound go. The color patterns are pretty neat, and I also like how the knob on the upper right controls the speed of the pattern. The keys are easy to type on and I appreciate that it has a 10-key. It seems to work well for gaming too-- it is a very comfortable keyboard to use for extended periods of time. The feet on the back that prop it up do so at a good level, and they are very sturdy and don't seem to be ones that would break off. Great keyboard for the price!

Unfortunately there is some kind of programming glitch; whenever my PC goes into sleep mode, the keyboard freezes up on restart, so it needs to be unplugged and plugged back in to reset the keyboard to function normal. But I guess these are the issues I have to accept for buying something with such a low price.

Pros: Great gaming keyboard with some simple to change and fun LED features. Good response and the mechanical-style keys feel good. Looks and feels good!Cons: The smaller size makes all the extra keys (Del/Home/End/PgUp/etc) have to be doubled up on the numpad using a Fn button to use them like a laptop. This also eliminates the numpad enter key. Not a deal killer, but a little annoying to me for everyday tasks on the computer.

The keyboard is a bit smaller than your traditional keyboard but I like it for what it is you gotta get used to the number pad being off from what your normally used to but you’ll get the hang of it sooner than later. Not bad for the money and it’s a good conversation piece at workUpdate: keyboard is not great the 7 key stop working and when I went to my desk the next day my password slot was full of letter when I hit New Years it was the space bar going wild so I had to unplug it and reset the keyboard don’t buy it. Also the company reached out to me to bride me a gift card and to remove my review of them. That won’t happed I’m being honest of their product.

I have had the keyboard for over a month and I now use it as my main keyboard even though the letter imprint is for gaming and hard to see without the LED on.The keypress for the price is awesome, feels great every time I press the keys, and is very responsive. Having the volume control on the keyboard is now my main way of changing the volume. Much better than using an on-screen volume bar or Function keys.The LED options are fine and the LED works great throughout the keyboard.The most annoying thing is that it does not remember any setting after restarting the PC.For a budget keyboard, I rate this 5 stars. I just hope it continues to work as well as some reviewers have found fault after a year.
