This keyboard was replacing a keyboard with the same brown switch, but from Outemu with just white backlighting at a 75% layout. I immediately noticed the quieter and more accurate switches, makes you want to type even more with the keyboard. I must say that there is a ton you can do to improve this keyboard like PBT keycaps, dampening to remove the (rare) pinging noise, lubing for the extra "thonk," etc., but what you get out of the box is perfect for me.The ABS keycaps feels thinner and smooth compared to the other keyboard which was cheaply textured. The backlighting shines through these keycaps with a font you rarely see on a keyboard at this price point. The lighting effects and the features this thing has is miles ahead and the only con is the very short (nicely braided) cable having to run from the left side of the keyboard having me use my USB 2.0 extender to give slack.Overall, if you're looking at the Ducky or the Razer or maybe even customizing keyboards this is a great start into the hobby. There is a sub-Reddit forum where you can get a ton of support and if you're getting into smaller keyboards like this then you know what you got yourself into of having to learn shortcuts all over again. I can't wait for their software to modify it even more to my personal taste.05/11/21 Update:I have decided to buy some new PBT keycaps that are white puddings that I've seen many people upgrade to. I'm also looking into disassembling the keyboard to put in dampening foam. I've noticed the grease on these thin keycaps, but are not that noticeable. However, a con I have found is that the RGB is still not customizable and the software has yet to be released this year (there is no purple). Also, my wrists get a bit sore when playing games which is why I purchased a wrist rest to try and soothe them. Still a recommended keyboard to get into the hobby and have recommended the same to friends.
