Glorious and epic
So I was hesitant to purchase this at first. I had read some review somewhere on another redragon product, claiming that it was not true mechanical switches, blah blah blah. I gotta say, this is probably one of the best keyboards I have owned so far. I don't usually spend a lot on keyboards with the exception of a Razer DeathStalker Ultimate that I had bought one day to use for work (and it worked out perfectly, it literally did like 30% of my job for me lol, but it was $300 so .. IT BETTER :D ). Back to the keyboard... I was how they say. FLUUSSSHH WITTHHH CASHHH. And thought what the hell I'll try one of their "Mechanical" keyboards, and if its a flop, then lesson learned... Once I had the box in my hand I was already impressed. The box it comes in is nice, and I can tell the product was heavy, which is usually a good sign. Once I pulled it out, I knew that it was meant to be (that's what she said...) It is pretty thick (doesn't bother me one bit) It is heavy, (also doesn't bother me). And because its heavy, it doesn't go sliding around the desk when I type at my nutty typing speeds. The build quality is excellent, honestly, I don't know how they are making money because this thing is solid, and I bet I can weaponize it.. There is no bend or give to this thing, its literally like a rock, its a thing of beauty and brings a tear to my eye. The red glow is intense and clearly visible even under the high-intensity interrogation style lighting they use at my office. And the ominous red glow looks amazing, it fits my offensive IT role perfectly (I deal mostly in heartbreak, and "Like A Boss" situations) The flip tabs on the bottom are heavy duty, and are super solid, like crazy solid, you flip them back and they sound like someone cocking a gun. They literally SNAP! into place, I love it, I have been known to break these things off.. That is just not happening with this keyboard.. I think I might just snap them back and forth now if someone comes to bother me in the middle of an intense keyboard bonding session. The keys themselves are beautifully designed, I love the font, it's not your typical boring look. This thing says I break all the rules, And its the type of font you want to send an email with, but know you can't because you will get fired when someone realizes that you've gone beyond their realm of times of new roman, and into a whole new dimension of professionalism... They are crystal clear, no blemishes, and the glow comes through the keys perfectly, the glow underneath the keys makes it look that much cooler. The mechanical keys are solid and work exactly as you expect, whether the actuation force is exactly what it should be, I don't know. But they do the damn job, and I like to use my keyboards, not measure them in a full-on anal manner. The click is fairly loud and obvious, and there is no volume knob on it, so that is something to consider if you buy a mechanical keyboard for the office. I feel like this really does give me confidence in my high-speed typing ability as I am no longer wondering if I hit the key I wanted or if my keyboard had a derp moment (cause I don't make mistakes! YOU HEARD ME! {ok sometimes I do}). I really do blast through my typing though, with ease and a sense of accomplishment ( cause I feel accomplished when I hammer out a memo and it literally feels like I hammered it out... That is mission accomplished right there!) I am sure there are going to be moments when someone asks me questions whilst I am typing, and I am just going to keep slamming away while staring at them as I give them the look of "I know what I am doing", while confident clicking noises radiate from the dominion that is my office. My boss came in and just immediately went wow mode on it, he loves it and stated that it makes him want to get rid of his laptop and switch to a desktop just to have a badass keyboard like this one. I didn't mention that he could just hook it up to his laptop (MUAHAHAHA) And thus my reign over awesome keyboards stays unchallenged (as planned). Overall this thing is solid, and it makes a statement. It says, now mechanical keyboards can now be owned by anyone and not just those who are less impulsive with their money. I love it and I am going to buy 2 more, one for home (or should I call it my lair o.0) and one for my coming Mad (IT) Scientist Lab. To the manufacture: good job on an excellent product! I honestly didn't have confidence in your brand when I first made this purchase, I have never used your products but now I am a believer. And don't change the price, I am still a cheap impulsive bastard and will have to panhandle if you do.
