Best keyboard I’ve had
This keyboard is honestly the best investment ever, you don’t need to lube the switches but personally I do, and after lubing them it feels even better! I will say it takes a second to get used to the layout and I don’t know if I’d say this is great keyboard for “gaming” but I love it when I’m typing my notes for class

One Fatal Flaw
The board is high quality, includes a pad between the plate and the PCB, and responds well to mods. It has a partial set of keycaps with some novelties, though the choice of what's included is a little odd. Lots of repetition and not enough in the way of options. But that probably doesn't matter a ton when you consider the board's big flaw.Akko's cloud software is garbage, so if you want to remap keys (I like to map PGUP and PGDN to CTRL+UP and CTRL+DN, for example), then you're going to have to find a third party option. Akko's software doesn't allow you to remap a lot of the keys and making macros is stupidly fiddly.So...why 4 stars? It's high quality, has wired and wireless features, and as far as bang for the buck, what you get is phenomenal. After all, if you built this same essential board from independently sourced parts, you'd easily be out ~$175 and wouldn't even have wireless modes. It's just that stupid software...

Fantastic work/productivity keyboard
Short n' sweet:This board, for this price, is almost perfect. Looks and feel are subject but it's good quality. I subbed in Akko Starfish switches and some SA profile keycaps and it has a very nice low end tone and is very quiet. Its RGB and wireless do what every other board does and it does them well. The layout gives full 10 key for just 1 column more than a TKL. The smaller zero takes little/no time to adjust to. If you're between full size and compact, just get this if you use the 10 key.If I could change something: make the usb plug a little wider to give universal cable support. It is USB-C though so...hard to complain too much.For ~$100 this is as close to perfect as it gets. After having used it a couple weeks I would have paid $150 and been happy with my purchase. If you like the color/keycaps/switches it comes with: even better. If you're in the market for a hot swap board and use a 10-key regularly: buy this. It's better than other full size hot swap boards in this price range by a fair margin. Quick tip: if you shop for keycaps make sure your new set has the smaller zero and right side modifiers.

Satisfying Clicky Keys, Good for Beginner Keyboard Modding (IMO)
The media could not be loaded. I'm just getting into the keyboard modding hobby and found this beautiful keyboard so I decided to give it a shot! I like that it's fully assembled, has internal padding (to soften noise), stabilizers, and a fully hot-swappable board all for a super decent cost. (*This is not a cheap hobby LOL) The only ""downside""--more a note to be aware of than a dislike on my part--is that the lettering on the default keycaps isn't very transparent so you really only get the RGB effects layered beneath the keycaps at first. I swapped out for other keycaps and the RGB is super bright, so that's definitely not a problem especially if you plan to use this base for mods. My keyboard is now wonderfully 80s retro (not perfect but hey not bad for my first) and I love it! I *did* swap out the base jelly pinks for some cherry reds and WOW the sound on this is absolutely amazing, and that's all before attempting any kind of lubrication on the switches. The sound on the video is the stock board with the stock jelly pink switches and it does sound very clicky but not deafeningly loud--the cherry red switches give it a more hollow sound which is absolutely wonderful if you're someone like me that loves clicky, tappy keys. Can't wait to buy more boards! I also love that this is Bluetooth *and* wireless capable. That's going to help prevent another round of what I call "Cable Tetris" in the future, by saving me one less tangle-able USB cord. The akko cloud driver is also easy to use to reprogram and customize the RGB color patterns and effects and commands as well. Overall I think this is a fantastic keyboard!

Better than I expected
I LOVE this keyboard. My favorite thing about it is the lighting modes. It is pretty loud, so I would not recommend using it in an office setting. The only negative thing I have to say about it is a couple of the keycaps did come scratched, but that's not a huge deal breaker for me, if I cared that much I'd just buy replacement keycaps. This is a great buy and well worth the money!

Adorable and great value
The quality of this keyboard is really good! Out of the box it sounds great, no hollowness and the stabilizers are actually decent (there are tons of soundtests on youtube if you want to get a better sense of how it'll sound). The board has three different connection methods, two different levels for the kickstand, and cable routing options. Overall, it's a great deal for just over $100 and is going to become my daily driver!

Less than 5 months and some keys won’t work
Bought this. Loved it. Use it daily, sadly I’m having to buy another one already due to several keys deciding if and when they want to work.

Very glitch. Cloud driver is horrible
The software side of this keyboard ruins it. Repeat keys and broken configuration software makes it darn near useless
