AUKEY Mechanical Keyboard LED Backlit Gaming Keyboard, Five Stars

Great mechanical keyboard for the price.

The keyboard is very nice with the rgb and different lighting modes, very nice clicky keys but are loud although its not a problem for me, overall great keyboard for the price.

A good keyboard with large buttons and backlighting is even pleasant, as it’s great for me. In addition, it is heavy which indicates that it is really mechanical.

Super cheap and works brilliant, really satisfying to type on. Not really practical for an office environment though since the switches are super loud, but you should already be aware of this when buying it.

I’ve been trying the cheap mechanical keyboard kind of game for some time now. I like the sound of the switches and the feel of them. They give a tactile feedback by an audible click , but you probably already know that knowing that the switches are blue switches. They suit me because i bottom out my keys and they’re the cheapest 104 key keyboard. In terms of modding, you could change the key caps with any cherry mx switches if you don’t like the gamery look, you could also technically make the keyboard cable removable like i did by soldering a female adapter to the keyboard logic, but that might void your warranty. Furthermore, if you don’t like the rainbow effect , you can desolder the led’s and solder your own.

Overall good but few minor issues with keys. Some are in the wrong position and swapped such as the ‘ and @ key. Besides, they do feel very good and quality, led’s look good with multiple options controlled by the function key which overall leaves me happy with the product.

Bit noisy but amazing quality and value.

Very nuce to type on!

A good keyboard with large buttons and backlighting is even pleasant

Edit:as w key just died, i cannot recommend this anymore. It lasted like 7 months only.

This is my first mechanical keyboard and i love the feel of the tactile blue switches and it makes typing much more enjoyable. The price point was unbeliveable at just £15 which is around the same price as cheapo membrane keyboards and i’d even be happy if i paid full pruice for it too, it’s that good. It’s build quality is top notch and it’s got some weight behind it so it doesn’t slip around the desk. It connects to my chromebook easily just plug & play no software required. It comes with a 24 month warranty as well so that gives me great faith in the product, i’ve seen aukey offer great customer service too. Best purchase i’ve made in a while, you really can’t go wrong with this keyboard.

Bought this as it was on a special offer – for the price i was amazed at how good it really is, even at the full price i would have been happythe keyboard lights up – which isn’t something i personally like but my son loves itthe feel of the mechanical keys is so much better than a standard keyboard, it does take a little getting used to especially as the keys sit quite high, but within 10 minutes i was typing withug any mis-type at all. In face the accuracy of the keystroke is very good. I will be bying another soonyou can adjust how the lights work, or turn them off, have specific ones lit. The usb cable is ok, but as i’ve been used to wireless keyboards for some time, i’ve had to get a usb extender – but it still works greatone of the nicest keyboards i’ve purchased for some time.

This is my first mechanical keyboard and from now on i will make sure its not my last. I got this at a one off discount that lasted for 24 hours so i wont compare this price-wise i really really cant complain. Plus as i have no knowledge of other mechanical keyboards it would be unfair. Having said that i have a couple of things that i will change compared to this for my next mechanical keyboard. Version and takes a little getting used to. It is probably me but i still cannot find the uk pound sign, just the dollar. I have researched a few sites and hopefully will find a way to do this. Also on this particular keyboard the ‘ and @ signs are wrong way round on the keyboard i. You have to press one to get the other if that makes sense. Last but not least the backlight is brilliant. However you cant assign each key an individual colour and are stuck with predetermined patterns. Its probably a little thing to most but my next keyboard i would like the option to individualize the colours.

Very noisy and the us layout takes a while to get used to, but the lights are lovely and the mechanical feel is amazing.

Nice feedback from the switches and the board feels really high quality with a nice heft of weight which helps it stay put. The led lights are well-lit and aren’t too distracting (when on static or breathing effects).

The keys are very clicky and have a great feel to them, definitely much better value for money than the gaming keyboards from big brands. I do a lot of typing so the blue keys make the experience much better than my corsair k65 with red keys.

Great keyboard, i’ve used it for like year now.

Really great keyboard for the price, using it at work every day and it’s perfect for the job.

This is decent keyboard with mechanical switches. However, the back-light led’s were one color for each row. I think it is better if they have used only one color(red or blue) for this keyboard. Anyway, durability is not bad. I have not tried for actual gaming session.

Keys are well weighted for a heavy typist like me. Good quality and feels very durable. Very affordable and very good value for money. Definitely feels lie a product twice its price.
