small mechanical keyboard with RGB backlights

I got one with blue switches (because I like blue switches).

Actually I'll break it down:

Things I like:

  • Feels great
  • has arrows and page-up/down keys and stuff even though it's almost a 60% size
  • Magnetic feet! I always end up snapping the plastic flip-out feet keyboards have so this is really useful
  • Slightly-recessed USB-C connector.
  • Multiple bluetooth profiles
  • Software for configuration is very easy to use
  • ISO UK layout - you wouldn't believe how hard this is to find in RGB keyboards that get more than 1-star reviews

Things I don't like:

  • I see strobing effects with the lights - but that's true with most LED stuff, I just have sensitive side vision.
  • ABS keycaps will go shiny with time
  • Spacebar is a little loud.
  • Can't set the colour of individual keys separately

That's a seriously sweet keyboard!

As someone who is also working with a loud spacebar, I feel ya. I kinda got loud keys in general. But the click is so satisfying.
