Review: The Writers Choice.......for me! - First, one major thing out of the way before I explain this review. I am disabled, in 2017 in my mid 40's I had to retire. Luckily enough for me, I was able to do that. One of my major problems is swelling, and yes in my hands. So here I was retired, and unable to do many of the things I enjoyed. So I decided for my creative outlet I would start writing again. This started my long journey to find the right keyboard. Now to the review. I have been looking and yes spending way too much money in my search for the right keyboard for me. I am not a gamer. I primarily write and utilize graphics applications. I found out quickly that "chiclet" style keyboards weren't going to work. They are hard due to bottoming out against the backplate. This would cause physical issues for me if I used them for more than an hour or so at a time. So after some pain, and no less than 4 different "high-end" keyboards I had to keep searching. These keyboards are now part of my keyboard drawer of demise. Next came the mechanicals, okay this was a nightmare! I started with Razor and Corsair. My first switch was blue, and quickly that was not going to work. The actuation length was just way too long so in order for me to actually know I engaged the key I had to bottom it out. Remember I am disabled so I have a lack of fine feeling in my fingers. They aren't 100% numb but enough so that I get no tactile queues from the switch. So the Huntsman, and MK2 visited the drawer to be entombed. Next, I moved on looking for a low profile thinking maybe the actuation length was the issue. I even experimented with membrane keyboards again. The Ornata was a no go the same issue with bottoming out and hitting the backplate to hard. MK2 Low Profile in a red switch and that was a hard no. The actuation wasn't so bad as it is the pressure needed to engage the switch felt off to me and I was hitting the backplate. I tried some off brands as well like a Redragon low profile, and 3 other keyboards with brown switches. Before you judge me this process took a little over 2 years. I would try different wrist rests and form factors. All in all, I bought and now have in my drawer 11 keyboards, probably $1,200 or so in the hole. Now up to this point how I have been surviving and writing is what I call keyboard merry-go-round. I use a keyboard and when I start to hurt I switch to another. So daily I switch at least once, but usually twice. Now, mind you I write and use my graphics applications a lot. Usually, 4 to 6 hours a day and some days 12 since my pain doesn't let me sleep much. I ran across the Elite 2 earlier this week. So I ordered it and it arrived yesterday early afternoon. The first impression was this was a beast. Well built, and heavy which I like because I have had keyboards slide around on me because I am bottoming them out so much. Got this plugged in and turned it on. The lighting was beautiful. See the RGB really adds nothing to a typing experience physically of course. But it does add something more important. I find it adds sunshine and more importantly inspiration. There is something to color science in the face it can help with creativity and help relax you. So I was very pleased with the excellent lighting of the board. Hands down the best I have seen so far. Now the most important part. These switches are like butter to my fingers they are smooth and soft enough that I felt no pain. The keys are a bit more spread out so that is going to take some time, but man does it feel nice. They are simply perfect for me. I used the keyboard for almost 10 hours on day one. and didn't feel any pain from bottoming out the keys. The response was amazing and the travel distance perfect. The pressure needed to actuate the switch was light and the resistance was balanced perfectly with excellent backpressure. Honestly, for me, this was the most pleasurable experience I have had typing since I fell ill. HyperX you won me over with this product, and I want to thank you. This keyboard felt like it was made for me, and this is about all I have to say... I paired this purchase with the HyperX wrist rest, and that was an excellent choice. Combined the experience was even better. The rest perfectly fit the board height and width and was supportive but not to firm, excellent product as well. Review: Beautiful keyboard for any use - This is an all around awesome keyboard !!! At first glance it didn't convince me at all.. it was just different from other keyboards I had mainly due to the pudding keycaps which never had before.. but I started using it and exploring it day by day and I ended up loving it a lot. In facts I ended up liking these keycaps already! Besides the included ones are ABS you can order an upgraded set of 104 pbt keycaps separately which I'll order soon. Let's start with the RGB lighting, you have 5 stages of brightness, 1 is Off and 5 is the brightest which is too much for me. I use it at 2 in the dark which is the most comfortable for me. The rgb transition is super smooth and well done. Love it! It's also very customizable with NGENUITY Software (Currently in beta sometimes it doesn't work). Keyboard has also onboard memory with 3 presets which are also customizable. Build quality: It's built like a tank, it's heavy with metal and quality plastic. No complaints there.. the metal volume slider is awesome and so are the multimedia keys. Unfortunately no wrist rest accesorios included. Writing experience; Using this keyboard has been very pleasing to use in terms of sound and easiness when it comes to typing experience. It's smooth and satisfactory, the key pressing becomes an easy task with this keyboard since it requieres very little effort to activate each key (45g pressure), it makes your writing faster, better and effortless. In fact, it's so easy to activate a key that you might find yourself sometimes touching keys you didn't want to. Software: This must be it's only weak point, the software sometimes doesn't work properly, for example, if I choose a desired lightning effect and click "add" it returns to the standard wave effect. The software also can't be minimized to system tray. Unboxing experience: It's been a little disappointing because nothing else is included besides the keyboard. No keycap tool, no extra keycaps, no palm rester, no extra cable or tool of any kind. Just a Manual and the keyboard which it's not fully protected in the box. For a 129 keyboard it would have been nice some extras, but you get none. Overall it's a solid 9.5/10, the software doesn't ruin my experience since i like the default effect. Lighting 10/10 Build quality 10/10 Software 8/10 Typing experiencie 10/10 ## Features - HyperX Pudding Keycaps: Pre-installed translucent ABS pudding keycaps provide more brilliance compared to solid-color keycaps. - HyperX Mechanical switches: These reliable key switches are a balance of responsiveness and accuracy, with a short travel time and actuation distance. They feature an exposed LED for brighter, more luminous RGB lighting. - Signature light bar & dynamic RGB lighting effects: The signature HyperX light bar and vibrant lighting effects form a truly dazzling display. - Dedicated media keys and large volume wheel: Have control at your fingertips with a prominent volume wheel and dedicated keys for media, profiles, and Game Mode. - Solid steel frame: The solid steel frame provides durability and the sturdy weight of the keyboard helps prevent slippage when the action heats up. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B088KRFVBK | | Antenna Location | Gaming | | Best Sellers Rank | #57,935 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #2,704 in PC Gaming Keyboards | | Brand | HyperX | | Built-In Media | Alloy Elite 2 - Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - HX Red (US Layout), Quick Start Guide | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X | | Compatible Operating System Family | Windows | | Connectivity Technology | Usb | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,522 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00196188048795 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Item Type Name | Gaming Keyboard | | Item Weight | 2.9 pounds | | Keyboard Backlighting Color Support | RGB | | Keyboard Description | Gaming | | Keyboard Layout | QWERTY | | Manufacturer | HP Inc. | | Mechanical Keyboard Switch Model | HyperX Red | | Mfr Part Number | 4P5N3AA#ABA | | Model Number | HKBE2X-1X-US/G | | Number of Batteries | 1 A batteries required. | | Number of Keys | 104 | | Operating System | Windows® 10, 8.1, 8, 7 | | Other Special Features of the Product | Anti-Ghosting, Braided Cable, Full-size Keyboard, Key Rollover, Volume Scroll Wheel | | Power Source | USB | | Special Feature | Anti-Ghosting, Braided Cable, Full-size Keyboard, Key Rollover, Volume Scroll Wheel | | UPC | 196188048795 740617303735 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 years | ## Product Details - **Brand:** HyperX - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X - **Connectivity Technology:** Usb - **Special Feature:** Anti-Ghosting, Braided Cable, Full-size Keyboard, Key Rollover, Volume Scroll Wheel ## Images ![Alloy Elite 2 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IOtS5z2eL.jpg) ![Alloy Elite 2 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71YltS-inSL.jpg) ![Alloy Elite 2 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71XQ1VhkIrL.jpg) ![Alloy Elite 2 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7194FIl9eHL.jpg) ![Alloy Elite 2 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71cIdYCiF3L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: can this with stand an occasional closed fist?** A: The keys are sturdy but might not handle more than a few direct hits - but the main deterrent I'd be concerned about is that it's got a metal frame, so you'll most likely shred/bruise up your knuckles if you start swinging on it. I say go for it, tbh. You can use the break from gaming while your hands heal to think about why you have to hit things when you're angry. **Q: Is the two-toned color of the keys distracting at all when they aren't lit up?** A: I guess that probably depends on how you look at it... The top half of the keys are black and the bottom halves are a cloudy white color, I don't find them distracting at all but I'm not usually looking at the keyboard when I type. I think the keys are far more distracting when they are lit up. **Q: Does this support macros and key remapping?** A: It has both key mapping and macro capabilities through the Hyper-X Ingenuity app. **Q: Can it be plugged into a usb-a hub?** A: Yes ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Writers Choice.......for me! *by I***! on October 1, 2020* First, one major thing out of the way before I explain this review.

The custom reds on this thing are gorgeous and feel great. I write a lot and this thing has reduced my finger strain considerably, while also increasing my typing time. The keys still give me the tactile feeling I need while typing, but I only need to put forward about a third of the effort I did previously. And I've noticed my fingertips are less 'compacted'? They're sort of calloused from so much typing but I didn't realize how much of that was the force I was laying down to properly bottom out each blue key. The make and attention to detail are very nice. Excellent build quality. Not a keyboard you'll want to gamer rage and smash. You probably don't want to hit anyone or anything with this keyboard in general, it's heavy enough to hurt someone. The pudding keycaps feel cozy against the hand and they white part of the cap really lets the light bleed through. Speaking of the light - very thankful there's a brightness setting built into the keyboard because at the default, max setting, this thing can probably light up your entire room. I am not sure how anyone would be able to sit in front of this thing when it's going at full power, it's like sitting in front of a nuclear reactor core. I have it on the lowest setting and it's more than tolerable, but still brighter than most backlit keyboards' highest settings. It takes a little bit to get used to. You can turn the lights off entirely, or change the way they cycle as well. For the record, I am new to HyperX and their stuff has really impressed me so far. And I'm fairly picky about what I use. Treat your hands and get this thing. Also pair it with the HyperX wrist-rest, it makes a big difference with this particular keyboard. I bought this on Black Friday. A lot of the time when I buy something that's on sale I feel satisfied with the price I got, and wouldn't have spent more than I did on it. But for this keyboard I can safely say that whether you get it on sale or you get it for full price you're not going to regret it, and you'll get your money's worth out of it. It's easily the best keyboard I've ever used and my fingers are thankful for this luxurious typing experience. ## Frequently Bought Together - HyperX Alloy Elite 2 – Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Software-Controlled Light & Macro Customization, ABS Pudding Keycaps, Media Controls, RGB LED Backlit, Linear Switch, HyperX Red,Black - HyperX Wrist Rest - Full Sized - Cooling Gel - Memory Foam - Anti-Slip - Ergonomic - Keyboard Accessory, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/218768281-alloy-elite-2](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/218768281-alloy-elite-2) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-26*
