Anivia SADES K8 USB Wired PC Computer Gaming Keyboard 19 Non-Conflict Keys Metal Case 7 Colors light, Top keyboard, unlike any I have seen before.

I bought this after a disastrous time with the mad catz mcb43107u0b2/04/1 – cyborg v. This was bought as a replacement for the above mentioned at a quarter of the price and i am so far very impressed. The packaging is no frills but has an air of professionalism in its simplicity, the company logo is emblazoned on the box and keyboard and is quite groovy. The style are functionality are fantastic the company have produced a product that is impressive in its sleekness, whilst maintaining a firm that is functional, very strong and durable, though quite heavy and excellently balananced. The keyboard is compact and only takes up the space needed without the unnecessary plastic casings that i have grown used to. The keyboard is able to switch between breathing or steady on and has plenty of vibrant colours that turn off after ten minutes or upon power down. As previously mentioned the keyboard is pretty heavy but the keys are not and give good feedback and are responsive and not clunky. The cable is reinforced braided type and looks good, i can say no more but i am ultimately impressed. Please refer to the manufacturer blurb to gain more on the keyboards functionality, i however give 5 stars.

Very good quality for the money.

This is us rather than uk, so some of the symbols are not where you would expect them to be.

I wish i had sent this keyboard back and got something better. Over time i’ve come to dislike it quite a lot. It’s the light up keys that annoy me the most, the symbols are not very well defined and some of keys are not lit very well. Then there’s the mapping as when you press shift key they digit you would normally find at a specific place on other keyboards are not where there supposed to be on this keyboard. Waiting for it to die so i can justify buying a better one.

The keyboard is metal and heavy, which i really like. It means it wont be moving around as you type or game. The keys themselves feel very nice to type on. It’s might take a little while to get used to the extra raised feel, but i’ve found my typing to be much more comfortable with it and it gives an almost mechanical feel to the whole thing. You can enable/disable the windows key with a 2 button press which is also nice if you do a lot of gaming, my only real complaints are that there’s no full return key. The top half of the return key is a backslash which takes some getting used to if you are a long time user of full return and more importantly, the backlight only has 4 modes that are all rainbow colour. Bright, not so bright, pulsating and off. I should of read the description more closely as i wanted a solid colour backlight and i thought i’d be able to change between 7 colours, but that’s my fault and not the sellers. The manual does state that you can change the backlight, but i think it’s a universal manual that covers several different models. Also i received an us layout keyboard instead of a uk version, which makes programming a little messy for me.

the sades k8 usb wired computer gaming keyboard looks good and feels robust, it has a nylon braided cable which is around 153cm in length. The keys on the keyboard are illuminated in different colours depending where they are located on the keyboard. You can easily increase and decrease the brightness of the keys, turn the back lights off on them completely or have them slowly increase and decrease in brightness automatically. It’s just a shame you cannot select one different colour for all the keys or select which part of the keyboard displays which colour to your own personal preference like some other gaming keyboards can do. Using the fn key on the keyboard in conjunction with certain other keys you can control volume, bring up your media player, internet browser or emails. You can lockout certain keys or quickly change the arrow keys to act as the w,a,s,d, keys. Testingwhen using the keyboard i found the keys responsive but didn’t like the return key with it being slightly smaller and a different shape to the return key on my usual keyboards. Conclusiona good overall keyboard that looks and feels robust not the best keyboard i have used but would still recommend it for the price.

Bought as a present for my husband. He loves it when playing games. It’s easy to use, a bit heavy, it’s multicoloured. Would recommend to someone who is a gamer.

Extremely well built.

A must buy for a touchtyper/mechanical fanatic on a budget.

Not worth the money if it causes more grief than solutions

Great feel and the led colours are cool. Only point is the keyboard is set up is american. You have to press “ to get the @ symbol.

I personally don’t really like the mushy look of the actual letters on the keys as sometimes i really need to find if i’m pressing the right key, and this is u. Layout, and having experienced a uk layout for about 11 years it takes a while to get used to, but overall it’s a really nice keyboard. It’s great for me, i can reach my normal speeds of 100 wpm and i love the overall quality of the keyboard. I have not tested this keyboard over a long period of time but first impressions are definitely extremely positive. One little discrepancy for me is that the cable is an odd blue and black whilst the entire keyboard is rgb. I would prefer fully black cables but hey, you won’t really notice it in the long run. This gives me another reason to keep buying all of your accessories.

Nice strong heavy keyboard but the one we received is us not uk so very confusing to be using it in the uk. My son liked it but for the above reason we are sending it back.
