Mechanical keyboards are often considered the best for their smoothness, accuracy and responsive feel when typing, owning to the mechanism underneath compared with rubber in non-mechanical keyboards. Hence, I was keen to check out how it performs. First impressions are good, the keyboard is nicely designed and has a lot of weight to it, meaning it will not slide around on the desk. It has rear stand feet so you can raise it off the desk for a more comfortable angle. Connection wise you can choose from USB-C for wired, or 2.4Ghz for Wireless, and there is the Bluetooth option also, given you a range of options for use in most situations. You can set this using the select switch on the side. The key design itself is somewhat compact, and does not have a separate numerical keypad, so that is something to consider if you use it frequently. The key response and feel is very good as expected, there is the right amount of resistance and a nice sound to them, not clattery like cheaper keyboards. The letters on the keys are backlit from underneath, and you can choose solid colours or RGB modes. Usage is comfortable, however given the 80% form factor it is smaller than you would perhaps be used to, which does necessitate learning key positions. Also, the fact that the home and print screen button cluster is upper right is quite convenient, but does make you think they are the numeric keys at first due to muscle memory. Overall this is a very nice compact keyboard, my only negative is the lack of numeric key to save space, which personally I do tend to use frequently, so I would not have this as my everyday workhorse, but given its ability to connect on Wireless and Bluetooth, it means you can use it as a bigger laptop keyboard, or indeed connect it to your TV/fire stick/Chromecast/tablet/phone to use instead of trying to type with the remote, and for that it does work very well.
