Cracking bit of kit!

Okay so my keyboard has arrived, I've had it a few days, typed a few tens of thousands of words on it and figure I've got a good enough impression of it to give a brief review.In the box it's pretty simple.- 1 keyboard- 1 mini usb cable- 1 plastic key cap puller- 1 user manualI opted for the gold and white with outemu blue keyswitches. There is no RGB lighting, there is a single green led under the caps lock key that indicates caps lock status (on is on, yes, you'd be surprised some keyboards have the led on to indicate caps lock off). There are no DIP switches on the base visible at least without taking the entire keyboard apart and this keyboard is not reprogrammable and does not have onboard remappable buttons.It is a "standard" ANSI layout but at 60% size so expect confusion when initially trying to find some of the more obscure symbols which have been moved around.ANSI is the North American standard and we use ISO over here in Western Europe as such symbols such as ~ or \ will not work (or at the very least not match their keys and I was unable to find the backslash key regardless of modifier key combinations pressed) if you attempt to use this keyboard under UK English mappings.I have tried several but not all UK English mappings that roll as part of Ubuntu 16.10 but essentially found that once I'd switched to US English the key cap labels matched up 100% with their actual functions (including the FN based media controls) and I regained the use of my \ key which is pretty essential in my daily use.The keys, are actually the same size as standard (ANSI) keyboard keys so no feeling crammed in when using it for a long period of time. Comfort is brilliant, I've had no issues typing for hours on it before taking a rest and my typing speed is unchanged as far as I can tell (avg 83 wpm, so I'm a competent typist) once I adjusted to the US English mappings.It works with Windows and Linux without trouble, the super and meta keys working just as you'd expect.Mac requires a bit of a faff, the same keys fail to function as command and option keys which means you're going to have to do some jiggery-pokery remapping some keys if you want to retain their functionality (copy and paste for example was the first thing that I noticed being borked).Now the sound bit. I opted for the outemu blue switches as I was hoping to get as close to the "buckling spring" feel as possible and I think they come close, not perfect but close. The loud tactile click and the activation weight feels just right for me. I am a heavy typist and have broken old keyboards with my keyboard bashing before now. That said they are a lot louder than I expected then to be... I originally bought it thinking I could take it into the office but I think if I did that the police would find my body hours later having been bludgeoned to death with the keyboard by my colleagues.The spacebar when depressed at speed does have a less than pleasing "ting" noise at the end of its travel which is probably just an artifact of the stabiliser used on it.Look & feel: the gold metallic finish is more a soft rose gold look but I actually quite like it! Very smart looking with a small logo on the left hand side that's embossed/engraved into the metal plate. The white plastic undercasing is alright, nothing to write home about but is textured and doesn't feel "cheap". Completing the look underneath is the removable usb cable and the two rubber tipped flip out feet used to raise the keyboard to a typing angle.The weight of the keyboard is higher than I thought, it is solidly planted on a surface and the metal plate must be in the region of 4mm thick, it's certainly substantial which helps prevent flex (it's a good stiff chassis) all comes together to give your a product that feels more premium than it actually is. Only thing that lets it down look and feel wise is the font used for labelling the keycaps, which is quite "futuristic looking" I actually like it, but many may not.My product was purchased by me. I was not approached by anyone to review this product, I bought it as a replacement from an old portable membrane switch based keyboard.

Could do with being a little less "plastic" and should say its an American key layout.

I have been using this for a few hours and I must say it definitely looks the business. Takes a little while to get used to the key spacing. The plastics are a little cheap for a keyboard of this price (you can see rough edges on the bigger keys from the plastic moulding process, especially the space bar and the CTRL key). It is made of plastic designed to look like aluminium. I am finding the keys a little uncomfortable, but that's probably just because I need to get used to the form factor.My main gripe, and I can hardly blame anyone other than myself for this, is that I wish it had been black! Everything else on my PC is black (Monitor borders, PC case, Mouse etc) so being white does make it stick out a bit. The cable is also white and a little bit thick for my liking, so you can't really hide it.The reason I got this is because i wanted more desktop space for a HOTAS setup, and this keyboard i undeniably small (but with full-size key spacing) and seems to work pretty well. I've dropped it a star just because I would have liked a little less plastic at this price point.Oh, and two last points that may be important to some people; its is an American keyboard layout, so has different key placing to a UK one. As a Windows and a Mac user this doesn't bother me too much but may be a problem for some. Second point is that the website on the box doesn't actually exist, so I suspect the company make keyboards under lots of different brand names. This shouldn't be a problem as I assume Amazon would replace it in the event of a failure.UPDATED; been using it for a while now and really like it, even the colour has grown on me.

With flaws, but not bad for getting into MKs

It is not a bad keyboard, definitely something one can get used to. It does however suffer from couple flaws that some might find annoying.1. Position of the function key - Most laptops (all I have seen so far, have a Fn key on the left hand side, hence it would be logical to follow that pattern. Instead you are getting Fn where you are normally used to having AltGr)2. No dedicated Home or End buttons - This would have been bearable if it was not for issue no. 33. Home and End are mapped in two places (":" and "?" + PGUP and PGDN), both are non-standard and combined with the fact that Fn is not where you would normally expect it makes getting used to this keyboard a massive pain the back side. Why not have them mapped to the arrow keys?4. Remember that this keyboard has the US layout. Something I did not think would be a problem until I realized that in en_GB mode there is no way to type a backslash ("\"), which means I have to switch keyboard layout if I want to use it or readjust to US layout and switch layout whenever I need a pound sign.The keyboard itself feels alright, however switches do not give you the same tactile feedback as those of more expensive brands.I had a chance to write on both Poker3 which is quirky and requires a lot of readjusting as well as Das Keyboard which is what I think I will ultimately end up using.Overall:1 star for the decent look1 star for the decent feel1 star for the priceVerdict:If you want to switch to a mechanical keyboard, but are unsure if you will like it and have a use for another keyboard buy this for a trial. It is inexpensive and will give you a feel for what mechanical keyboards are all about.Otherwise go straight to Poker or Das Keyboard.
