Better Than Some More Expensive Keyboards

 

The keyboard has a shutdown button.. I'm not sure if I like that feature or not. I accidentally pressed it once. It may turn out to be a neat feature though. Keys feel like those of a laptop. Just go ahead and buy this keyboard; you'll be glad you did.

Very nice keyboard; especially at $9.99. Nice feel. The best inexpensive keyboard I have ever purchased. In fact, it is better than some more expensive keyboards

Blinded By The Light"- the other reviewers sure weren't exaggerating. The lights are blinding. I don't want to cover them, but I am going to have to find something translucent to help tone down the light ; Other than the bright lights; no other cons

Best Keyboard Ever

 

If you have money to throw around feel free to try out some of the more expensive keyboards, but this is the best keyboard I've ever used. Heck it even survived a good 1/4 cup of coffee!

I'm have favoured laptop keyboards for the past 5 years and because of this I've always dreaded having to switch to regular desktop keyboards. Needless to say this keyboard is fantastic. Its the closest to a laptop keyboard I've found at such a bargain...

As others have mentioned the LEDs in the keyboard are awfully bright. But honestly its not that much of a problem, its bothersome at first but I hardly notice it anymore

Great product for the price

 

Small and slim like a small notebook of paper. Love the thing and it doesn't make that much noise when I type

The small little hinges to lift the keyboard are really flimsy and may even break if too much pressure is applied. The backspace is so small and the enter button is ridiculously huge. Still getting used to that. Only run into problems when I don't look...

Good Keyboard

 

I use this for my PS3, so the USB option works for me. As stated, the LEDs are a bright white, but only when looking directly into the light. The big enter key and small backspace key don't really bother me and didn't take any getting used to. Overall,...

USB or PS/2 option ; Slim size ; Power button to shut down the computer ; Silent keys ; Glossy Finish

Flimsy pop-out tabs that tilt the keyboard

Cool Keyboard

 

My thermaltake PSU died after only 2 years and I needed a replacement. I've learned my lesson and I read some in depth reviews which all showed higher quality materials used in them.

This keyboard is sleek, lightweight, feels solid in your hands and feels nice to type on. I got it because I thought it might be more silent than its clacky predecessor (and I was right). If you like the way laptop keyboards feel, this guy is for you

There is a power button near the top that will shut down your PC if you hit it -- I ripped mine off because hitting it by accident is really annoying. The LED indicator lights at the top ARE absurdly bright. I covered them with electrical tape

Nice Keyboard

 

Great keyboard. Much easier to clean than standard profile keyboards thanks to its low profile keys.

Low profile keys ; Very stylish ; Very slim

Blinding LEDs... What were they thinking? Minus 1 egg

Bought my 2nd one

 

An easy fix for the lights, is to color them in with a marker. I used a blue sharpie, and now mine are much dimmer, and put off a blue glow.

Best 10 bucks I ever spent. Nice and heavy, so you know its not cheap thin plastic. The keys are laptop sized, and the action of the keys is great. Quiet and very responsive

Short delete button took about a week to get used to, and the lights are extremely bright

The best keyboard, the best price

 

I'd buy again!

I've owned this for a few hours and can already tell that it rocks. i mean ROCKS! It's slim, as the description says, the keyboards are like a map top, it's mac inspired, and it's cool all around

The light is bright, but as another review said, only when staring into it from the top. The backspace key is also in a bad location, right next to the black slash. But i'll get used to it, already have
