Wonderful hotswappable custom keyboard
It’s a wonderful hotswappable opto mechanical keyboard with Gateron yellows which are linearI have added foam in the base and I gave lubed the switches with super lube and have put the custom Akko world tour Tokyo keycaps and the keyboard is amazing to type on and also for gaming. It’s a fast switch and buttery smooth after the mods.It is great even at stock but better when moddedThe price is also very reasonable. A couple of months ago it was around 14K like so many other 60% keyboards on Amazon India where sellers list prices of keyboards which costs $50-$200 as high as INR 15000- 45000 ( plz regulate the prices .... it’s daylight robbery )

Its a Wired keyboard but pictures were misleading.
Pictures were misleading. By looking at RGB pictures with out wire I thought it is a wireless keyboard but its not.

Very good keyboard, but not for everyone
I bought the Gateron Brown ones. The only objective negative I found its the keycaps and its stabilization. The ABS keycaps aren't as sturdy as PBT ones and the keys wobbles a bit. Doesn't affect its performance but does feel cheap. RGB is great. Arrow keys can be permanently switched on. Gap between keys is appreciated. Great for gaming and typing.The subjective negative is that brown switches aren't good at feedback. The bump you feel is very slight, plasticky, feels almost like annoying pothole on the road rather than a good bump. Compared to metallic 'click' from the blues, these feel nothing. My light fingers could only feel them while I typed slowly, not while gaming nor while typing fast. And its not "silent" you will hear the "clack" when the plastic keycap hits the plastic base when pressed hard, present in every keyboard, which does make loud noise. The only silence is there is no metallic click sound.

Just brilliant
Simply put, you can't go wrong with this. I was hesitant to buy this because my work requires arrow keys and fn keys but it works just fine. Another plus point is that they're optical switches, she I don't see them failing anytime soon. I was using the logi G413 which was a nightmare with key breakages, the double actuation issues. Worthy upgrade. Chose this over the HyperX Alloy Origins and so far I don't regret this choice. I bought the Gateron Brown Variant because I game less and type more

Everyone loves this keyboard, and they are right to
This is a fantastic keyboard for the price. I didn’t expect to like it as much as I did, but as I have an AMD system and therefore the Razer Huntsman Mini breaks my computer, I had to look at other options for a 60% keyboard. This one came highly recommended and I can see why - it feels so good to type on and the RGB lighting is quite customisable even without the software installed. I would definitely recommend the silver switches as they are butter smooth with just the right amount of actuation force. The best part is that even if you don’t like the switches that come preinstalled, they are fully modular so you can pull them out and install ones that you prefer. The one thing I will criticise is the cable it comes with is rather short at 1.6 meters, so I had to use one of my own. That being said, it connects via USB type C so having the option to use your own cable is a boon all of its own. If you’re in the market for a 60% you could certainly do worse than one of these guys.

Not UK Layout
I absolutely loved this compact keyboard first but the fact that it is US not UK layout (which I had not expected) rankled. The single A5 Start Guide shows HK clearly make a model with a UK ISO layout so I don't think it unreasonable to expect one especially at the price! It was far too irritating to look for the right keys. Irritating too was the software which didn't work . The firmware update just shut down and disconnected the keyboard each time and the video reviews on YouTube showed only what I was missing.I know it has very good reviews and I can see why as a gaming keyboard it would work but for me it just didn't meet my expectations for the price I paid. I really regretted having to return it.

The Best Most Affordable Mechanical Keyboard (but it has a microphone?) -- Updated
Want to try out your first mechanical keyboard?This is the review you have been looking for!I have recently switched from an Apple’s wired keyboard to my very first mechanical keyboard. Here is my experience.General observations:- Since my old keyboard was low profile and was a membrane keyboard, I needed a bit of practice to get used to the feel.- This is more personal, but it is quite a bit noisier than a membrane keyboard. Even if I bought the Gateron red switches version, you can hear me type from across the house. (To fix this issue, I will be trying o-rings soon and update this review with some statistics.)UPDATE! The o-rings helped reduce the noise from the keycap's plastic hitting the switch. It won't make a huge difference, but it's better than nothing when using mechanical keyboards at night.- Probably the best entry-level mechanical keyboard there is on the market.Pros:- This 60 % keyboard still has all the keys you might need on a normal full-size keyboard. You can access these keys using the fn key or lock them by pressing on fn + q/w/e/r. You will have access to the arrow keys, the f1 to f12 keys and the other 9 keys that no one ever uses (insert, delete, page-up, page-down, home, etc). You will NOT have a numpad, although I am pretty sure you can add one through their software. Using a Mac and/or worried about medias keys? You can install Karabiner, which is a software used to remap your keys! I personally switched the Windows key with the left Alt and set my function keys to allow me to change my volume and play or pause my videos using fn + f(something).- The switches are hot-swappable. You can remove them and replace them with any Gateron switches! I have not tried with other brands (because I do not own any other switches), but the manufacturer said Kalih switches will not work on this keyboard.- It has an IP rating of 64 for water resistance. That means it is protected from total dust ingress and water spray from any direction.- The way they curved their keys increases my typing accuracy and comfort.- Very little wobble on the keys and it will not impede your typing.- The RGB looks great!- Small, portable (you can unplug the cable), not too heavy and quite solid. I was not able to twist it.- It won’t slide on your desk and you can reposition it easily too.Cons:- While gaming, the edge (facing my way) on the space bar hurts my thumb. I think a slightly curved edge would offer better ergonomics.- There is a microphone somewhere under the spacebar for one of the lightning setting. I DO NOT know if it can be used for spying, but I would personally rather remove it. I will be attempting to disassemble the keyboard and check the PCB if it’s easily removeable or if desoldering is required. (I will update this review once it’s done!) THIS MICROPHONE IS NOT MEANT TO RECORD AUDIO. IT IS ONLY FOR THE LIGHTNING EFFECT.UPDATE! The microphone is round and soldered to the board. You can either desolder it to remove it, but I do not know if it will break the keyboard or not. I don't have a desoldering kit, so I cannot attempt that. Instead, I decided to cover it with hot glue. It probably won't prevent my fbi friend from listening to me, but at least, the sound will be muffled. ;)- When removing the keys using the keycaps puller tool provided, it scratches the glossy sides. Also, it will dent the base of the keycaps. I would personally suggest using a wire keycaps puller.UPDATE! While installing my o-rings, I have used a wire keycaps puller (got it in the o-rings kit) and that did no damage whatsoever on the keycaps. This is definitely a must-have for anyone who would want to remove their keycap for any reason!- There are barely noticeable dents under most of the keys. It is either because they have been already removed once using their plastic keycaps puller or because it was how these keycaps were manufactured.- Many people have complained about their software saying that it has a poor interface and is a bit hard to use. I HAVE NOT tried it since it seems like it is not available on MacOS.Should you buy it?If you are looking for the best most affordable mechanical keyboard, you should definitely get this! It surpassed all my expectations. For that price, you cannot not get it.DisclaimerI have paid this product with my own money. I would never recommend something I would not buy myself. If you think this was useful, please upvote this so more people can see it! Thanks!

PERFECTO
Durante un par de días estuve buscando un teclado que fuera demasiado pequeño, opté por uno de una sola mano. Pero por error encontré este teclado. Leí sus caracteristicas, me fascinaron completamente el echo de tener switches opticos. Anteriormente usaba un Razer BlackWidow. El cambio a este teclado fue simplemente extraordinario. La velocidad de respuesta es bastante buena, hasta el momento no me ha fallado en lo absoluto. Estoy tan satisfecho de este teclado y su funcionamiento que próximamente volveré a comprar otro. En cuanto al material que esta realizado, esta bastante bien echo y no parece ser de un material simple, El RGB es bastante bueno los LEDs los trae en la placa base, no en la superficie. Es un detalle que le quitaría ese 0.1% de recomendación. Pero en cuanto a calidad y el precio en el que es vendido. Para mi este teclado ha pasado a ser el base para juegos competitivos, principalmente FPS. Recomendado al 99%. En cuanto al software, había leído que era bastante malo. Pero en cuanto lo he descargado yo, tiene una interfaz muy amigable y simple. Y solo sirve para lo que es, macros e iluminación. En si el teclado podría decirse que es "Plug and Play". Para encontrar el software solo hay que escribir en el buscador "jikedingzhi", será la primera opción que aparezca. Está en chino la página, pero tampoco es muy difícil de entenderla. Solo basta con poner el cursor encima de cada pestaña sin dar clic y leer a donde nos redirecciona. Así hasta encontrar el de "Descargas" donde estará el software.

Beste Tastatur für E Sports?!
Die Tastatur sieht sehr gut aus,vorallem wenn es dunkel im Raum ist.Durch die Gateron Optical Yellows fühlt sich die Tastatur unfassbar schnell an. Ich hatte vorher eine Apex Pro aber die Gk61 fühlt sich nochmal so viel schneller an.Ich kann die Tastatur mit Yellow Switchs nur empfeheln.
