Fnatic Gear Rush LED Backlit Mechanical Pro Gaming Keyboard with Brown MX Cherry Switches, UK Layout…

The media could not be loaded. Aesthetically the keyboard is very nice looking. Clearly laid out with a strong backlight, (that can be dimmed if you rather). I was looking for a gaming like keyboard that is a little more subtle than most in it's design. For this end the keyboard fits nicely as both a gaming keyboard, and a standard typing / work keyboard.The backlit colour is locked to red, which is OK if that's all you're after. Custom RGB profiles on other keyboards are pretty expensive, and I'm glad I took the punt on this slightly cheaper, less well known keyboard make. In short, it's great!I went for Cherry MX Brown switches in the end as keen on a keyboard good for gaming, (mechanical switches) and typing (tactile) and it is indeed spot on for both. It is indeed noisier than membrane keyboards but doesn't take much getting used to. You may need to consider the noise factor though if you're PC is in a shared space.Build quality feels pretty sturdy and impressive for the price. I'm a little disappointed in the detachable wristrest, in that it's a little loose even when snapped in fully, but if you don't move the keyboard around much you're golden here anyway.The macro creation is basic, but does a job. I've not been able to work out how to detail longer key presses or delays in to the macros, but this might be a limitation of me rather than the software.All in all I think it's great and was worth the purchase personally. Having used a Razr keyboard before with Cherry MX Blue equivs I definitely prefer this keyboard, and it's a lot cheaper! Considering bagging a second one for work.The only other thing is that I've only had the keyboard a few weeks, so I can't attest to it's reliability long term yet. If I have any troubles I'll update the review, if not, then it stands as a decent keyboard which isn't too over the top in 'gamer design', while being well priced against the premium keyboard makers like Razr and Corsair.Sound test attached for Cherry MX Brown.

For the money, this keyboard is excellent. The Cherry MX Browns I went with are a delight to type on. The integrated USB hub will also come in handy, I need to try it out.The packaging was more than adequate and actually better than I thought it was going to be. I had assumed due to the Chinese logo on the keyboard that this was going to be a cheap import, but actually, it turns out that Fnatic are a UK based professional electronic gaming organisation (esports) and this is just their logo. So I've inadvertently made my computer cool with my kids.The rubberised feel to the top of the keyboard and wrist rest are quality. The wrist rest clips seem like an after thought, and would probably be better if they were metal. But, I'm not sure I want a wrist rest anyway, so will probably just take it off.Overall I'm really impressed and happy with the keyboard, especially for the price.

This is my first mechanical keyboard, and I have no regrets. The smooth keycaps feel high-quality and non-slippery. The Cherry MX Brown switches give you a fine mix between typing and tactile feedback for gaming, ensuring you will never press the wrong key.Really, really satisfied with my purchase, worth every penny. My only issue is that the lighting is quite dull and doesn't stand out enough. I believe an RGB feature would also be appreciated by customers who want to fit this keyboard into their setup. This isn't an issue for me, as it fits perfectly into my black/red setup.

I replaced a K30 Corsair KB with this and I ahve to say I am very happy that I did.It's lovely to type and game on. The wrist rest is a nice addition that feel solid and contours your wrist position at a nice angle. KB's don't need RGB and 1000+ features to be a good KB and this Fnatic KB is a good example of that. The keys aren't as loud as I thought they would be however you certainly notice the difference compared to a membrane keyboard.As a whole I don't think I could go back to a membrane KB now after using this one for an extended period.
