CHERRY KW X ULP, Ultra-Flat Mechanical High-End Keyboard, EU Layout (QWERTY), Wireless Multi-Device Keyboard for up to 4 Devices, Rechargeable, Black

This keyboard has same price tag as most of high-end gaming keyboards, and clearly tries to compete since it has these positive features like other gaming high-end keyboards do: - full N-key rollover - mechanical Cherry ULP switches (basically scissor-switch, but without membrane) very tactile and crisp - also switches due to being scissor-stabilized have no key wobble (unlike ordinary mech keyboards) - full and fairly standard layout, multimedia keys - multi-point Bluetooth, USB wireless dongle or true wired USB (without need to have dongle plugged) - very high quality keys and clear white backlighting. Well made indications via colored light on just certain keys (caps lock, connection keys, etc) - brushed aluminum top plate and overall very smart design But here list of all of negatives: - I don't know if its just on mine, but spacebar had significant lack of spring-back force. I even thought it was sticking - it wasn't at the end and registered keypresses fine, but was extremely uncomfortable to type on since it had so different response curve from rest of keys. Maybe something wrong with extra springs (or even no extra springs?). I won't decrease score too much assuming I've might've got a faulty one. - this keyboard requires its own distinct wireless dongle. E.g. can't use same as with Cherry mice (even most modern 8C Advanced). I presume its because "gaming" keyboard dongle needs extra features like NKro which their standard multi-device dongle can't handle. So you will need separate dongles for keyboard and for mouse. I haven't noticed any RF interference between them though, but keeping extra usb port occupied is annoying. - no noise dampening at all. Plastic underside. Switches create lots of hollow clacking noise. Rubber feet are super-thin so on hard desk help little to dampen. - F1-F12 keys require chording with FN by default, if you press them otherwise you get various "function" buttons many of them useless for me most of the time. There is "FN-lock" which reverses to standard layout, but it keeps FN key lit in red as indicator, so will just pointlessly eat battery (I switch backlight off to preserve battery life unless room is very dark) - mine came noticeably warped (literally slightly curved) and I had to straighten it - which is actually possible but not for good reason, keyboard not strong at all, it warps and bends really easily. And even after it straightened, right near feet still off the surface (and I have 100% straight glass desk). I noticed one of EU reviewers having same issue so its clearly not isolated. Competitors in same price segment tend to get aluminum unibodies (sides + top metal), but this keyboard only has fairly thin top metal plate - and being just a plate its not really that strong against warping. Sorry but with all these caveats I think I just get a proper high-end gaming keyboard. Its just not acceptable to deal with all this for something which costs that much. I think Cherry should tone down their (albeit admirable) aspirations and make price tag match until they can actually compete in quality in high-end segment.

Sin duda, el mejor teclado que he tenido nunca a todos los niveles (diseño, robustez, tacto, velocidad de escritura, funciones, retroiluminación...). La única pega es que este modelo no existe en ISO-ES, tan solo en ANSI Europeo (con la tecla Enter alargada). Pero es algo a lo que te acostumbras rápido y que se puede solucionar remapeando algunas teclas con PowerToys (si eres usuario de Windows). También le he añadido algunas etiquetas adhesivas sobre algunas teclas, con los símbolos que le corresponden, de manera que me ha quedado totalmente personalizado. Muy contento con la compra (además a un precio de 118€).

Sehr schöne Tastatur! Wer das "Klickgefühl" einer mechanischen Tastatur mit einem kurzen Hub haben möchte, liegt hier richtig. In manchen Rezensionen steht, dass die Tastatur nicht eben wäre und wackelt. Nach dem Auspacken war dies bei mir auch so, jedoch lässt sie sich (Aluminium) sehr einfach auf der Tischplatte gerade drücken. Somit wackelt nichts mehr und sie ist dennoch super stabil. Ich bin sehr glücklich damit.

Very good finish, metal (aluminum) construction. Easy and fast connection. Fast response, even when in hybernate. The sound of the keys when pressed is, of course, not so "mechanical" but ok, it's acceptable. For battery standing by and usage time, probably need more time to review but for now seems fair.

Tastiera molto comoda, prezzo top L'unico difetto che la tastiera ha i tasti UK, se sai a memoria i tasti nessun problema, sarà solo necessario mappare tasti nuovi per il < e >

Die Tastatur ist eher was für klassische Büroanwendungen, nicht für Gaming oder Streaming. Mir war das viel zu Standard im Schreibgefühl und Sound. Hatte auch andere low profile Tastaturen von Lofree und Nuphry getestet, die man im Video auch hört zum Vergleich und die waren deutlich geschmeidiger und hatten mehr thoc beim Schreiben. Jedem das seine, aber für mich wars nichts, auch wenn die Qualität sicher gut ist.
