Awesome keyboard for the price and aesthetic
The media could not be loaded. Some points *MOST mechanical keyboards are good for gaming, so if you're asking that question: yes, it games. *The Outemu White "Silent" switches are quite audible, which was fine by me as the actual sound is very satisfyingly thunky to me. Spacebar sounds even thunkier than the rest of the keys which used to bother me but has since grown on me. *I have spilled juice on it already and have used the hot-swappable capabilities of the switches to clean up, which was nice until I ruined two of them by putting the switches in the wrong way, so be mindful of this. I am, at the time of writing, able to find a 20-pack of these switches here on Amazon for around $15, or around $6 for 10 via goblintechkeys.com I will also note that the switches are now stained red with juice, which bothers me, and is no one else's problem. *This thing has so many color patterns for RGB (17 total) but not a single one of my keys has any transparency for backlight capabilities. easily fixed with new keycaps that I will probably not end up investing in. The patterns themselves are pretty cool. *NO extra cover provided for the top of the board in case you want to transport it without the original box, which I tend to do because now every other keyboard feels like I'm typing on a school computer from 2009. That being said, having used an even longer keyboard with a num-pad before the XVX, I was excited to see that even with the box being a good amount larger than the board itself due to extra parts and cushioning it STILL fits relatively comfortably in my standard Adidas backpack. *The software this comes with to modify RGB patterns, macros, and the GIF that displays on the little screen, was originally written in Chinese, I had to find the language setting to change it. Easy enough. However, this software is not beginner-friendly at all, to the point that I don't even use it, which does not impede the functionality of the keyboard itself. It would be nice to change the loop on the screen but quite frankly I like the anime girl typing in the corner so I don't mind it. *This is the coolest keyboard I've ever owned, really lives up to that retro aesthetic to the point that my older friends and family are frequently pleasantly surprised that I'm using it. I'm super satisfied with the functionality and build quality of this board. Would recommend other XVX products if the quality extends across all of their inventory. Read more
