Review: Love this keyboard! Great value, great Looking, and great to type on! - This keyboard has been a wonderful surprise. I love Logitech but this Steelseries keyboard knocks it out of the park for value, looks, size, and its feel to type on. So far best $40 bucks I've spent for a keyboard. IMHO it beats the Logitech G213 which was also a great value. Goes perfect with an all white pc setup and Signal RGB works well with it. I'll look to see if they make a white mouse but last I checked they didn't make one that is similar to the G502 or X502, both of which I use but are getting too pricey to replace. Review: what an absolute treat! - Truly a beautiful color, it is so difficult to find blue keyboards! So when I saw my fave keyboard makers over at Steel Series had this baby on sale I instantly bought it, what an absolute treat! Love the feeling of the keys, I normally do mechanical but I didn't care, I wanted the blue baby! Great keys, soft to the touch, the button and slider are hard plastic and do have that "cheap" feel to them but honestly that don't matter to me as much since I don't use them here at work. Great keyboard, wish they also offered it in the full size though as I miss my number pad specifically for work, so I will need to buy that in addition to this, but overall I am super happy with my purchase ## Features - The compact tenkeyless design is the most popular form factor used by the pros, allowing you to position the keyboard for comfort and to maximize in-game performance. - Our whisper quiet gaming switches with anti-ghosting technology for keystroke accuracy are made from durable low friction material for near silent use and guaranteed performance for over 20 million keypresses. - 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. - PrismSync RGB Illumination allows you to choose from millions of colors and effects from reactive lighting to interactive lightshows that bring RGB to the next level. - Dedicated Multimedia Controls with a clickable volume roller and media keys allowing you to adjust brightness, rewind, skip or pause all at the touch of a button. - Compatible with Windows, Mac OS X, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, PS5 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09FTNMT84 | | Additional Features | Backlit, Lightweight, Volume Roller | | Antenna Location | Gaming, Multimedia | | Best Sellers Rank | #20 in Computer Keyboards | | Brand | SteelSeries | | Built-In Media | USB Cable | | Button Quantity | 87 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Gaming Console | | Compatible Operating System Family | MacOS, Windows | | Connectivity Technology | wired | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,636 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene | | External Testing Certification | não aplicavel | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00810052980270 | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 14.3"L x 5.9"W x 1.57"H | | Item Weight | 1.4 pounds | | Keyboard Backlighting Color Support | RGB | | Keyboard Description | Multimedia, Gaming | | Keyboard Layout | QWERTY | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | SteelSeries | | Mechanical Keyboard Switch Model | steelseries_omnipoint | | Mfr Part Number | 64831 | | Model Name | Apex 3 TKL | | Model Number | 64831 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Keys | 87 | | Number of Sections | 8 | | Power Source | Wired | | Recommended Uses For Product | Gaming, Multimedia | | Series Number | 64831 | | Special Feature | Backlit, Lightweight, Volume Roller | | Style Name | Whisper Quiet – Tactile & Silent | | Switch Type | Whisper Quiet | | Theme | gaming | | UPC | 810052980270 | | Warranty Description | 1 Year | | Water Resistance Level | Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SteelSeries - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Gaming Console - **Connectivity Technology:** wired - **Keyboard Description:** Multimedia, Gaming - **Keyboard backlighting color support:** RGB - **Product Dimensions:** 14.3"L x 5.9"W x 1.57"H - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Gaming, Multimedia - **Special Feature:** Backlit, Lightweight, Volume Roller - **Style:** Whisper Quiet – Tactile & Silent ## Images ![SteelSeries Apex 3 TKL RGB Gaming Keyboard – Tenkeyless Compact Form Factor - 8-Zone RGB Illumination – IP32 Water & Dust Resistant – Whisper Quiet Gaming Switch – Gaming Grade Anti-Ghosting,Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UnL+fUeWL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: If I tried to use this with a chromebook, how might the backlight work without the software?** A: My Steel Series 5 has multiple color schemes per line of keys with variations of green, blueish green, blue, blueish purple , pinkish purple and it comes in waves. **Q: what is three way cable routing?** A: The cable that actually comes out of the keyboard can be routed 1 of 3 ways.

I had switched to a turtle beach vulcan and there's a gap between the keys that I just cannot get used to. The feel, size of keys, near-silent typing, feel great. It's really nice to type on. It's heavy and feels well built. I was able to snag this (TKL Apex3) for $34. Amahhhzing value. 2) THE M1-M6 KEYS ARE NOT INDEPENDENT! You cannot bind them as meta keys as you can in the Apex7 keyboard. You will have to replace your insert key, or etc. I REPEAT: You CANNOT bind to the M1-M6 keys on the Apex3. 3) I hadn't noticed when purchasing that there is no dedicated print screen key. So as mentioned above, I changed my insert key to act as print screen as I have come to rely on the snipping tool quite frequently. In summary, at 30-40$ this keyboard is a...Steel!
