UrChoiceLtd AK33 Backlit Usb Wired Gaming Mechanical Keyboard Blue Black Switches for Office, Typists and Play Games (Blue Switch, White)

I recently purchased the Ajazz mechanical keyboard with blue switches and have been pleasantly surprised by its performance and value. Ajazz sets itself apart by manufacturing their own mechanical switches, which helps keep the cost low without compromising on quality. It's important to note that these are not using Cherry switches, though they offer a comparable experience at a more accessible price point. The product arrived as described and feels like a solid entry-level option for anyone delving into mechanical keyboards. The included keycap puller is a nice touch and functions perfectly. However, the switch puller fell short of expectations, being too small for the switches and somewhat cumbersome to use. I recommend investing in a larger switch puller for a better experience. Compatibility with Gateron switches was a high point for me. I tested various types, including clear, blue, brown, red, yellow, and black, all of which fit seamlessly. Initially, I opted for the blue switch version, drawn by the tactile feedback and clicky sound to aid concentration. Ultimately, I switched to Gateron clear switches, favoring their light actuation force of 35 cN, which I find more comfortable for extended typing sessions and potentially better for wrist health. This keyboard is not only great for those looking to customize their setup but also serves as an excellent first mechanical keyboard. As someone with over a decade of experience using mechanical keyboards, I believe non-Cherry switch has outdone the once-dominant Cherry in terms of touch diversity, aesthetics, functionality, and cost-effectiveness. While brand reputation and physical longevity are yet to be determined over more extensive use, the initial quality suggests a promising lifespan. It’s rare to see keyboards truly wear out before they're replaced for other reasons, so durability might not be a significant concern for most users. In conclusion, the Ajazz mechanical keyboard offers a great balance between price and performance, with ample room for customization. It’s a noteworthy contender in the market, potentially eclipsing more established brands in many respects.

I have tried several and this so far is the best, in particular because of the backlighting and the layout is good. As to layout I particularly like the idea of putting 'Fn' next to 'Insert' as 'Fn+Insert' is a very common usage. The general layout and key sizes are good too, much more convenient than a 60% layout (the top numeric/Fxx' row is very useful) and yet smaller than a full TKL layout. Also the keys have a Cherry-cross compatible top so the keycaps can be easily replaced (the original ones wear out). They are roughly equivalent to "red" Cherry keys, but feel a bit stiffer. Some people may not like that without the backlighting the kes caption are effectively unreadable but that does not bother me. Also compatibility is fairy good even if not quite as good as with a "vanilla" keyboard. The price is also reasonable,

My black version has just arrived and I'm typing this review on it, I've coupled it to my desktop iMac, and this is my first mechanical keyboard since the 90's LOL As this has just arrived here are my first impressions. Construction: Actually very good, no significant flex or wobble. Seems pretty solid. One thing to be aware of though is that the contour of the keyboard when flat is a bit weird because of it's height, a wrist rest I imagine is needed unless you're a floater when you type. When you kick out the legs at the back of the underside, it does make a very nice angle to type at, however, the 'ringing' nature of the switches and mounting board is a lot more obvious, the ring is deadened when the keyboard is flat to the desk. Certainly noticeable 'ringy springs' (Best way I can describe it). Illumination: Again very good, I have the black version and even in daylight when the keyboard light is at full power it's still very obvious which is nice and gives a great look. I realised as I'm typing this that the pic doesn't show it at full brightness. It has on/off/breathing functionality as well as 4 levels of brightness not counting 'off'. Keycaps: Feel nice to type with, a little smaller in width at the top and more convex than what I'm used to with non-mechanical keyboards, but they feel nice and I've had no issue with accuracy when touch typing. I imagine the font may not be to everyone's liking, but I'm sure you could swap them out if you wanted, and in fact I may well do that just for a change and a different look from time to time. Switches: The Cherry Blues are a well known switch so I imagine these are a clone of those, however I've not used them so can't comment on how similar they are. What I can say is that there is a reasonable amount of travel as you'd expect with a mechanical, they are light to activate which surprised me but I'm quite a heavy typer so certainly not a negative, more something I have to get used to. They do have a nice tactile but light click when pressing. As I mentioned before, I don't know if the ringing sound comes from the switches or the mounting board, but it certainly gets worse when the legs are extended. The space bar and longer keys are solid and don't wobble, I imagine due to the 'satellite' keys they're they use. Setup: I was wary as I use a Mac, however, plugged it in, pressed a couple of switches that the mac told me to press so it could understand what keyboard it was, asked me to choose between ANSI and ISO (I just went with the former), and we were off to the races, so super easy! Overall first impression: I think this is superb, as I mentioned earlier this is the first mechanical keyboard I've had in a very long time, and their popularity and ability to be customised is what made me want to try one out - and a little nostalgia I imagine. I wanted to go cheap to begin with in case I really didn't like the feel or didn't get on with them, however, I can already tell that this is the beginning of falling down a rabbit hole of mechanical keyboards. There seems to be some great communities online to help with everything from a first experience to spending hundreds and creating your own. Not going to lie, I expected the experience with this very affordable Ajazz to not be that great, aside from the ringing noise which I'm already starting to tune out (but the reason it gets 4 and not 5 stars), this is a superb keyboard and I'm very very glad I bought it! I can't see how you could get better for the price to be honest

I highly recommend this keyboard - it is excellent, especially considering the price. TL;DR: You probably won't find a better keyboard of this size at this price - BUY IT! Long story: I ordered this keyboard as a replacement for my Razer mechanical keyboard, which I used for many years. I hated that keyboard, especially its size (full size with numpad) and the feeling of the keys (I think it has blue style key switches), but have been using it for many years since I thought "it must be good because its Razer". How wrong I was... Having finally had enough of my plight, I recently decided to have a look at mechanical keyboards that are smaller in size, specifically 10-keyless keyboards. However, I quickly discovered that these command high prices - money which I was unwilling to spend since I had, after all, managed to live with my old keyboard for quite a while. I then stumbled upon keyboards of even smaller form factors, which instantly appealed to me, and found this keyboard. Although sceptical because of the comparatively low price, I decided to take the risk since it couldn't really get any worse for me and the reviews seemed quite positive. Now I have been using the keyboard for about a week and I have to say, I am blown away. It is light, but feels premium. The keys have a nice satin-y touch and I absolutely love the black-style key switches - so much better than my old blue-style ones (but that is personal preference). Yes, the actuation points are not 100% uniform, and perhaps the key switches are not exactly like original Cherrys (I wouldn't know though). What I can say is that this keyboard is worth every penny, it looks smart, it feels great to use and its compact without sacrificing ease of use. I highly recommend it.

nice keybord for the money it comes with key cap remover and brush. Not a fan or the mini USB connector on the back could of being USB C but it doest the job cable supplied is slightly cheaper but it serves its purpose and is replaceable. Keybord has a good feel when typing and Is nice and responsive. The white led's are not overpowering which is nice. Takes a bit of getting used to a 60%. Has a sturdy feel to product as has a metal backplate. Did notice some keys are not labeled correct but as I don't look at keybord when typing this isn't an issues and can be resolved with new key caps or by re addressing. Nice mechanical keyboard for a good price.

Pretty impressed with this keyboard. I've always used mechanical keyboards, but not for gaming, I mostly use the computer for video editing, graphics, and software development, was looking for a minimalistic mechanical keyboard to pair with my macbook and decided to give this one a try. First impression is really good. The quality is great for the price, I've bought the black one with the blue bit, click is noisy, as you would expect, the pressure needed is natural, and the return of the kets is great. Struggled to find the FN key in the beginning (and if you do too, look next to the delete key on the top right). Works greatly with my macbook and looks really nice. Highly suggested. Note: this is not wireless, it must be wired and connected to the computer to work

good keyboard and feels nice, but its american. i live in england so all the symbols are messed up and there is no pound symbol as well as a few others. would like if it could say that it was in the american keyboard because now i gotta switch it and i dont want to do that :(

The sound of it is amazing and it is fully suitable for gaming, typing and for work it is also smaller than the other keyboards so u can take it with you anywhere you want.It also has stands on its bottom and it has a cable which you can plug out of the keyboard.I think it should cost more but it is amazing for its value it is also so bright.So i would consider buying this rather than a Logitech,steel series or a razor keyboard.
