> 24 hourMy son got a gaming computer and wanted to get a cool keyboard to go with it, and we got him this one. Ive got to be honest and say that I am perfectly fine with a normal keyboard and dont know much about modding keyboards. But he is into it, and he said this keyboard is awesome for modding. He said it is easy to swap out the keycaps using the included puller. There is also a frame you can remove depending on preference. The RGB works just fine and has plenty of different modes. The keyboard feels like it is pretty good quality and like it should last. It comes with a 5 year warranty, so it sure seems like it will last a while. The software was easy to set up and use. Overall my son is very happy with this keyboard and Id feel comfortable using it myself. It seems to be priced well for what you get. This is a keyboard I would recommend.

> 24 hourIf you are on the fence, grab this keyboard. This will become my travel keyboard but it did require a little work to get it the way I want. Pros: Hot-swap kailh style sockets!!! Secondary set of keycaps! Easy to mod (for the most part) 3 modes Magnetic border is easy to detach Cons: Hard to unplug the battery connector on the back because a hot-swap socket is so close. No foam between the plate and the PCB No standoffs between the place and the PCB. Plate mounts to the bottom case. Neutral: Metal plate (painted steel?) The sound of the board without any mods is exactly what you would expect, very clicky (came with Gateron brown switches.) I used something similar to Kilmat to create a foam sound break between the place and PCB. Also, replaced the switches with some lubed silent Outemu silver switches. Now it is quiet, smooth, and awesome to type on. I got the this keyboard for $26 and put about $30 into it. Very happy to have this in my collection.

> 24 hourI know the key switches aren’t the greatest, but I personally enjoy this keyboard. I haven’t switched away from it because it’s wireless and it has never stuttered on me. It’s battery life isn’t mind blowing; it’s rather short but it does have rgb lights all the time for me. I’ve bought pudding keycaps to replace with and I think they’re amazing on this super small keyboard!

> 24 hourThis 65% keyboard is the best keyboard and the cheapest, very quiet with the brown switches and is working with 3 modes! Bluetooth, wifi, and wire. I really love this keyboard and is by far the best purchase I’ve done so far

> 24 hourThis is an excellent keyboard with a plethora of connection options. This keyboard was tested under Windows 10/11 and Manjaro Linux and was detected and worked via cable and blue tooth in each. Sound is excellent and keycaps are smooth and pleasantly tactile. The included exchangeable keyboard frame and keycaps are also greatly appreciated. I highly recommend this keyboard.

> 24 hourBought this on a whim to use with my Steam Deck in a setup. Its quickly become my go to keyboard for all my devices. Its solid, feels good, has good key travel and sound, good battery, and good RGB. The frame is magnetic, it comes with a second set of keycaps in white, and comes with a magnetic slot for the 2.4 Ghz receiver. I could not be happier with this keyboard. Im adding KLIM to my list of KB companies to watch.

> 24 hourThe positives: This keyboard has a nice package experience, featuring well-written instructions and . It comes with key pullers, a whole extra set of white keycaps to replace the black, and even a magnetically detachable frame, which ostensibly lets you choose between a black keyboard (with the frame) or a white keyboard (with the frame removed). Although personally I think Id prefer to just buy either a white or black keyboard. The 65% layout is nice and compact, without sacrificing the arrow keys. You can press Fn+Z to switch into macOS mode, which swaps the position of the Alt and Windows/Cmd keys, a layout I prefer. Be warned if you choose to replace the keycaps, that you will need non-standard caps for PgUp, PgDn, and Esc (these are in different rows compared to the standard 100% layout), and right-Win, Fn, and right-Ctrl, as these are all 1U width compared to the typical 1.25U. The set I bought used the XDA profile (all rows the same height), and included plenty of variants of the modifier keys, so I had no issue here. The negatives: This keyboard uses Jixian Brown switches, the most bargain-bin cheap tactile switches Ive ever had the displeasure of typing on. They feel mushy, scratchy, not to mention incredibly pingy. Each keypress produces very noticeable resonance within the case. To a first-time mechanical keyboard owner, this might turn them off the hobby. I suppose you could mitigate this by lubricating the switches and adding noise absorbing foam to the case, but (as the keyboard is hot-swappable) I plan to just replace them. The switch stems are *incredibly* tight, such that removing the keycaps requires an unusual amount of force. Multiple times, I accidentally dismounted the switches instead, especially trying to remove the backspace and enter keys. Another flaw I noted is the USB-C port, which has a very deep and narrow shroud around it. Out of all the other USB-C cables I tried (which all have slightly thicker housing around the connector), I could only make it work with the included one. This is particularly annoying for a wireless keyboard, which youd generally leave unplugged, then attach to any old USB-C charger when the battery runs out. For $59, I wouldnt recommend buying this keyboard, except as a cheap starter for someone looking to

> 24 hourAfter having tried a bunch of different mechanical keyboards I can say that for the money this is by far my favorite one. I wanted a Wireless (both BT and 2.4g) along with wired use for those times when its just easier to plug into the computer directly, I also wanted a good backlight that wasnt a set non changing RGB like some of the others in this price range tend to have so I could set it to blue when just typing and change it to RGB RAINBOW EXPLOSION MODE when it is gaming time or to show it off. I also wanted to have the ability to hot swap the key switches in it so I could pick the best switches or even combination of switches for me. These wants tend to lead to looking at things like firstblood and keychron keyboards that cost $60-200 for similar layout and features and mind you thats on sale prices so in the under $50 price range its always pick 2 of your three wanted features situation. BUT NOT WHITH THIS KEYBOARD! I didnt have to make the compromises that a 60% board has like lack of standalone arrow keys and lose of the DELETE button which can become a pain when trying to deal with anything in the BIOS at boot when its missing. I didnt HAVE to pick which switches I wanted to start like with a non hot swap keyboard. I am currently typing this on a KLIM with the switches swapped out for Gateron Blue clicky switches with glorious o rings under the white keycap set that comes with the board, a great experience typing and I can get about 5-8 WPM faster on monkey type with it than I can with my other keyboards. This is the one I have on my desk at work. I love the clickies I put in but they arent for everyone, I recommend getting a switch sample pack if you want to try a few different styles. I have another one of these boards with the stock brown switches installed in it that I hand lubed and then put a round keycap typewriter style keycaps on for my wifes gaming keyboard and she LOVES IT! but she didnt like the browns for the WASD keys when gaming but for all the others so just WASD are Black linear switches now.. THIS IS THE WONDER OF HOTSWAP! Now onto my third one of these keyboards, its basically stock out of the box minus swapping on the white keycaps that came with it and I can say that it is a great starting keyboard. This is going to be my board that stays with brown switches as my all around travel keyboard as it really is a greet all around board to start with and just does everything well. good for both gaming and typing. Then the 4th board, I just finished putting hand lubed Gateron Red switches into it last night and I am still seating the O-ring around the key stems (these arent needed but add a nice cushion at the bottom of the key stroke.) and as far as I can tell so far its VERY nice but the Red switch was a bit light for the space bar so I ended up installing a Black switch in it to give more support. And then the fifth board I literally just ordered is going to be a black switch board when I am done with it as I want to basically have the same keyboard with all the different switches I want to ty so I can be 100% sure I get what I want and when you look and compare it to something like a Ducky One SF keyboard at $150, a Keychron Q2 at $200 (wired at that ) or even the keychron K2/K6/K14 at $80-100 I can say that I have yet to see a single reason to switch up.. If you are looking for a great keyboard to start into the world of hot swap or just want a great typing keyboard for any and all situation GET THIS ONE. Dont be me and waste $$$$ trying everything you can just to find these later. Brand that I tried and are WORSE by far regardless of price. MambaSnake 84 key non hot swap (both blue and red switch versions), Ziyou Lang 87 key TKL non hotswap blue switch (cost more BTW and much worse), Ziyou wireless 60% keyboards with Reds, Blues and Brown switches non hotswap so I ended up with 3 of them, TEWELL 60% blue switch, Macgee 68 key 68% non hot swap, and E-YOOSO z-686 65% hotswapable WIRED 65% keyboard (like this one) but costs just as much and is wired only. Best part is the first of the KLIM boards I got was about #4 in my excursion into keyboards and no mater what I got or how I modded the others, I ALWAYS ended up back on the KLIM as it just worked every time no matter what I needed and the ability to have the 2.4G to my PC, BT1 to my laptop, BT2 to my phone BT3 top my tablet and not have ANY issues switching is just amazing. They are every kind enough to make a nice quality shortcut list that can be saved for later if you want to change the keycaps as must aftermarket keycaps wont have things like the function keys marked on the caps any more but it isnt really an issue as they are A) easy to remember and B) the list works well when you forget which key is bluetooth reset or the like. Seriously STOP SHOPPING AND BUY THIS BOARD!!!!!!!!
