Cooler Master CK530 V2 Tenkeyless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - Per-Key RGB Backlighting, On-the-Fly Controls, Aluminium Top Plate and Wrist Rest Included - UK Layout / Red Switches

As a long time Razer keyboard owner the swap to cooler master has been great, the red switches have a much more subtle key click but feel faster and more responsive compared to the green switches with the razer keyboard.Removing Razer synapse felt liberating and the masterplus software feels so much better, less bloated and has some very nice pre-set lighting modes. The software is simple, but not in a bad way. It has everything you need in a simple and clean layout and it isnt trying to force you to download extra apps you dont need.Its a very well priced keyboard with alot of thought and feels very robust and premium. The addition of the wrist pad and key removal tool in the box is a bonus too.

I predominant use this for typing and have found it much nicer than my non-mechnical Razer device. It looks sleek, has great colours, and feels like a premium product.

Its a stunning keyboardYou feel like you have a lovely piece of engineering at your fingertipsBut, on blutooth, every time you wake it with a keystroke, it continually repeats that keystroke until the next keypress ... I had to delete 100 accidentally sent msgs on twitter lolzmedia knob is great, but, to change between it working for volume to skip track etc ... you have to hold down 2 keys at opposite ends of the keyboard ... so ok if you are at it 2 handed all the time .. but not easy it u are using 1 handSwitching between PC tablet and phone on blutooth was absolutely flawless ... worked beautifullyNeeds double the battery size for me ... the radio wireless uses much more power than blutooth too ... and if you turn off the lights, its difficult to read the letters on the keycaps ... because they are translucentFinally, the hole for you to plug in the USBC cable is so small that other cables do not fit ... maybe thats a safety thing ... some cheap cables (received with cheap £30 mech kb) are not designed for charging, they are for data only, and I almost had a fire in my place; charging an xbox controller with a USB cable only designed for data transfer .... people need to be aware ... if id left the flat, I would have prob burnt down the whole block, but I smelt the burning ... it melted the plastic around the portAnd id like to have got clicky blue low-profile keycaps ... so research time!Nice experience owning, just too many annoyances for me ... still, an absolute steal at £75 ... you could prob do alot worse if trying a premium mechanical for the first time ... half price

This is the BEST keyboard I've ever purchased.The keys are easy to press, dont make much noise, stable and cool.The brushed aluminium makes it all look premiumI was hesitant to buy, I though for the price I would get something cheaply. So I winged it. I was wrong, it's great, brilliant infact.Do not be discouraged.Cons, for heavy hitting finger types. At first it may seem strange, but when you get used to it. You will understand how good it is

Stopped working. Bluetooth, WiFi and wired connections all detect it in multiple devices but keyboard doesn’t work and lights don’t respond to and configuration in the software.

Very impressed with this keyboard, the action of the keys is great and the keyboard itself is well finished and reassuringly robust and sturdy. The triple option of wired/wireless/Bluetooth is great and I find the volume control knob on the keyboard so indispensable (and use it so often) that I'm now wondering why all keyboards don't have one! The only caveat is that the keyboard is really cut down in size - not only is there no numberpad but even functions like "home/end" to go to line start/end or printscreen are only accessible via combo/function key presses. Its not a big issue for many people's use cases but just make sure you don't use these often since having to use a keyboard combo to access them prevents quick access and could get annoying if you regularly use those functions. Its also worth noting that, this being a mecahnical keyboard, typing is relatively loud - worth bearing in mind if you are working in a quiet environment or if you work from home and have a partner that is sensitive to noise that you are going to drive crazy

This is a comfy and well built keyboard with nice tactile keys with adjustable color and custom set profiles with the program however every time i turn on my pc i have to unplug and plug the USB back in to get it to register any keys which does get annoying but after that one unplug it works great and keeps the color profile set, unfortunately the program for this keyboard is not as refined or as easy to use as other brands

Really great keyboard and I use it on three different devices, my PC, MacBook Pro and Steam deck. All work perfectly and without any issues.Really great product design and keys fell comfortable and very tactile to use. This is my now daily driver and happy to stay so for the foreseeable future.
