## Description

Review: Fantastic budget keyboard - I love this keyboard. It's a great keyboard for switching between work and gaming. It's quite tactile, which I like - the keys are high and it's much nicer than my old Apple Keyboard with the really flat keys. The keys aren't clicky though, which is great for work because it keeps the noise down (this isn't a very noisy keyboard) and even better for gaming. I play a lot of FPS like COD and this keyboard is more than responsive enough, as well as pretty comfortable and easy to use. The lack of number pad is great so it doesn't take up too much room on my desk. Despite being a TKL keyboard it still has all the keys you need like a full set of function keys, home and end etc. I also wanted one with a full sized "enter" key which this has. The lighting is pretty cool, and I've set it so it lights up differently on my work laptop and my gaming PC so I know which one it's connected to. It is so good I even bought my brother one for his gaming pc! I'm sure you can get more value from keyboards that are higher in price, but as someone price conscious I have nothing bad to say about this keyboard.
Review: Good gaming keyboard for the price, especially if on discount - Review of "SteelSeries Apex 3 TKL - RGB Gaming Keyboard - Tenkeyless Compact Esports Form Factor - 8-Zone RGB Illumination - IP32 Water & Dust Resistant - English QWERTY Layout , Black" I just bought this on sale price of £34.98 and it is good value at that price point. I have had several mechanical keyboards over the past few years that usually get flaky after about a year or two, so I am getting bored of paying a premium for them. I was a bit nervous about getting a non mechanical keyboard, but this one is fine, especially for gaming. It is pretty quiet and not clicky in use. It doesn't have per key illumination, instead it has about 6 vertical bands running across the keyboard which you can define the colour scheme for. It is fine for me as I like a solid colour scheme, though I do miss having a different colour for WASD. For this price it is a good gaming keyboard.

## Features

- Designed with IP32 Water & Dust Resistant for extra durability to prevent damage from liquids and dust particles, so you can continue to play no matter what happens to your keyboard.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Budget Keyboard, with some long-term flaws...
*by D***L on 28 October 2024*

I’ve been using this keyboard for almost two years now, and it’s served me well for the most part. It suits my desk nicely, and the RGB lighting is bright enough and is easy to customise, which allows you to give it a nice look. The typing feel is comfortable and pretty quiet - definitely good for both gaming and everyday tasks in my own experience. However, there are a couple of things worth mentioning. The build quality isn’t the best; the weight isn't even and it's flimsy, and after some time you start noticing the wear of the key sounds. Also, the software is glitchy enough that I ended up using a different program to manage the lighting and hotkeys. Overall, it’s a decent keyboard, especially at this price. But just be aware it’s not the most durable option, and the software could use some improvement.
