Honestly if I could recommend any membrane keyboard, this would be it. Pros: - membrane so very quiet - media controls are exquisite - very customizable - Fn+F12 allows you to disable all input/lock the keys, great for cleaning - been using for several months and keys feel great still Cons: - Windows lock key feels kind of useless. Unless you bump into the Windows key often. Eh, still don't know why it's a dedicated key on it's own. - fingerprints pretty easily but easy enough to wipe - Num lock/Caps lock indicators are very bright lights and hard to decipher. I just placed stickers on mine to easily distinguish (and dim a bit) - only 2 brightness settings but it's honestly not that bad Overall even though it's not perfect, it's still 5/5 stars and would gladly recommend and purchase again since you can't get a better membrane keyboard than this. Why spend double the cheddar on a mechanical one to replace with quiet switches when this keyboard exists?
I have had my G610 for 3.5 years now. The keyboard is great except the key caps prematurely fail and I can't get replacements that match. I have robbed some of the lesser used keys (ex - "[" "]" ";") but it is is not a good solution.
Love it
It’s pretty quick and the best keyboard I’ve ever owned and is perfect for a white setup.
I have become intrigued by mechanical keyboards and began searching for one. What a great purchase! The keyboard comes exactly as described, packed with a plastic cover case for carrying. I'm literally addicted to the sound of the keycaps and the backlights (loving the fact you can also customize it yourself in addition to the existing options!) note, this is my first mechanical keyboard in a long time. all in all, so happy I bought this, definitely would recommend! Happy typing :)
When setting up the color zones through Corsair's software, not all colors work in all zones. If it's not a primary color, it shows up faded, and a few zones are totally off when using primary colors. Also the scroll wheel has one spot that always sticks and catches. I also have the standard Corsair SCIMITAR RGB mouse, and would recommend that over the pro version. The software for the standard version is simpler, and actually works too.
The keycaps keep breaking. They use a proprietary switch with their own shape and due to the way their keycaps attach to the switch it makes them very prone to breakage. I'm on my third warranty replacement in less than a year. Steelseries also refuses to send out replacement keycaps and instead will suggest you RMA the whole keyboard, paying for shipping both ways. Here's pictures of both standard caps (+ shaped) and the QS1 keycap (square), which is made of 4 individual plastic clips. They break easily if you even brush against a key the wrong way. I've had to epoxy 2 keys and I've had 4 other keys either break or have the finish wear off and I've had this keyboard less than a year. I'm on my third warranty replacement.
The quality of this keyboard is wonderful, and the colors are exactly as described. I use it for my hybrid job and it's perfect for long hours of typing, with no lag or disruption of use. The battery lasts a long time, and the Bluetooth/ or USB feature is really helpful when having multiple computers. All setting options are very functional and easy to configure. The size is perfect and fits well on my desk. It came with multiple cleaning and maintenance tools, and has a great typing sound.
The keyboard it’s great, but just arrived the keyboard, have no instructions, have no cable, have no keycups extractor.
Out of the box it was okay except I didn't need the m keys and I didn't like the palm rest. I also wanted to get better feel on the mechanical rather than the brown switch that it came with, but once I customized it by ordering some MX keycaps and creamy purple switches. I also removed the m keys and the palm rest. I just moved the battery over to where the useless M keys were and it's a good setup for me .
This is my first mechanical keyboard and it did not disappoint me. I went with cherry mx browns and they feel amazing; typing feels so much better now than on my old chiclet keyboard. I also love the leds are they are just stunning and the aluminum makes this keyboard look very sleek, I'm glad I finally purchased this keyboard.
Coming from a Logitech keyboard for gaming that had a lower keys and lower incline I really appreciate how Razer's overall design for this keyboard is. The green switches are really loud so if you're like me and love the clicky sounds while typing and playing games this is perfect for you. The Razer keyboard has an additional application that you can install to control the RGB of the keyboard, it also connects with you alexa and hue lights to have everything syncing together. The biggest gripe I have with this keyboard is that the wrist rest does not attach on the keyboard (I wish for a keyboard at this price range their would of been a magnet or even a locking mechanism). Personally when I'm playing games like League the wrist rest shift over to my right every time and I have to readjust it. The keyboard can be plugged in via USB-C cable that comes in the box or Bluetooth. The media keys on the top right are also a nice touch when you just want to skip a track mid-game. The keys on this keyboard are standard so you can swap out the keys if you really want to as well.
I bought this sometime around 2019. After 5 years, the pad started to degrade and black surface started to come off, leaving black particles on my hand and desk. Since I got so used to this device, I decided to purchase again anyway (the function key is so useful for me and I really like the scroll button too). I hope they made improvement on quality of the pad. We will see in another 5 years...I uploaded photos of new and old device for reference.
There's really nothing much to say. I love this keyboard. The keys feel really smooth and tactile. The response time is instantaneous. The build quality of the board is really well done. It's extremely thick and durable. It also comes with a USB and audio passthrough. Just a couple of nitpicky things: The keys could be slightly more spaced out because, at times, the keys do feel kind of cramped together. The left shift key seems smaller than the average size, while the esc key seems kind of far away compared to other keyboards. My muscle memory keeps hitting the ` key. When using the wrist rest, it covers the razer rgb logo in front of the keyboard. (see pictures)
