Excellent Keyboard
TLDR; PROS and CONS found at the bottom of the reviewDISCLAIMER:I would like to note that this is my first mechanical keyboard in a very long time (more than 10 years) as I have mostly used membrane keyboard with laptops. I would also like to note that I purchased this for $11.00 instead of the original $99.00 due to a sale and gift card I received. I will do my best to list all the positive and negatives, though.I absolutely love this keyboard. It feels nice and hefty and the materials do not feel as cheap as some describe it. The keys feel good to press on and the tactile switches make a nice click that is not too loud yet not too soft either. The LED RGB options are also fantastic, as there's multiple effects and modes you can have the keyboard on to make it more exciting to type. There're also different colors you can choose from but I havent seen a way to specify a color range yet (such as having only cool or warm colors) but you can select from a handful of colors. The low-profile is also nice since I prefer it over the standard key cap heights I've tested in local stores. At first the font and sub-scripts on some of the keycaps looked awkward to me bit I ended getting used to them within a day, and it's really the feel that made my like this keyboard. I use this keyboard for writing papers and playing video games and it feels great.=====================================PROS:+ Excellent lightning and keycap whitening (letters are visible without LED on)+ Low-profile+ Tactile feedback feels responsive and has a good click sound.+ Good amount of customization with the LED and RGB settings for casual users - configured using the keys and no software (seek manual for instructions).+ Material and weight feels good, does not feel cheap.+ Design looks great.CONS:- An expensive keyboard at normal price ($99.00 at the time of this review) but possibly still worth the purchase compared to other competitors at this price range.- Limited LED and RGB configurations for people who like to be specific or have a color range.

Perfect amount of clack for meeeee DON'T USE IN BEDROOM YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
First and most importantly if you like clickty clack typrewriter feels this keyboard IS for you, its very audible and I LOVE the sound, this alone and it's ability/magic power to annoy my family has been worth the price by a gazillion. If you want silent you should not be here. The octogonal keys are underrated and it seems so much more modern than my old Corsair K70RGB. The aluminum backplate is very nice, I don't mind the plastic bottom and the extendo feet are just enough to raise it to a comfortable level, no wrist rest no problem i paired this with the WR01 from MSI and it was worth the price too. Also LEDS are very bright which I am happy about. Spacebar is a bit stiff but I like it, you may not I don't know you bro/girl/nongendered person.Like many people I almost always view keyboards and other peripherals with "if it aint broke I won't replace it". I generally keep keyboards and mice for 10 years or until they break, I also rip the keycaps off and clean them with isoprophyl alcohol every single month as if the second coming of Jesus Christ was imminent. I hate dirty keys.Anywhoo this time for me is different though, I got the GK50 LP for one reason it was cheap and the bonus was the reviews were very good. I didn't need another kb but I wanted this one to have an alternate setup for my notebook. For the price it is unbeatable. I spent over $240 5.5 years ago on a Corsair K70 RGB and that hurt (it still does and it seems ridiculous thinking back).Switching (HA) from MX Browns to these Kalih Choc Whites was a concern to me, would I like them? What did they really sound like? Will they drive away animals and small children making them go mad with rage upon the fury of my clickitus clackitus????? YES YES YES and yes! I am happy to report the clack and click sounds are perfect. Certainly not as deep as full length switches could be I assume but to each your own good people. The Browns always sounded like something was missing to me I only did it at the time because I did not know that what I really wanted was the typewriter feels. I feel alive at work again and it bothers the hell out of EVERYONE HAHAHAHAHAHA. JUST GET IT

Excelente Teclado de MSI
Siempre me ha gustado la marca MSI por su calidad y este teclado no es la excepción, el RGB es individual por cada tecla y se puede configurar de diferentes colores así como los niveles de luz y velocidad, en el uso diario son super suaves las teclas que por cierto son switch mecánicos, este teclado que compré solo lo encontré en inglés pero funciona sin problemas en una PC al español salvo la tecla Ñ que no se encuentra marcada pero si se puede digitar.

I Love It
Everything about this keyboard is amazing to me, but there are a lot of differing desires when it comes to a keyboard, so it will ultimately depend on what you're after.Do you want pretty lights and a sweet design?Got you right here. During the day I find I quite enjoy the mode that lights up wherever I press a key. Zoom zoom go the lights across the board and it's quite pleasing. At night I like the pulse, with or without zoomies. The brightness is just right for me as well. Aside from the lights... DRAGON. METAL. Very stylish.Looking for a smaller keyboard because you have smol hands and/or less desk space?Yep, this one is perfect. My last keyboard was very chunky, both the keys and the overall space it took on my desk. For most people, larger size probably wouldn't be an issue, but because my hands are quite small it actually hurt to stretch and then press those big keys. This keyboard is the perfect size for me. I'm finding I'm more accurate because of it, which overall makes me faster. While most might consider it a downside, I prefer the lack of handrest. The bigger keyboards with such a feature are too big for my setup and if my hand needs a rest it's fine just chilling on my desk. The built-in rests tend to just get in my way.Want something that feels good to type on?Heck yeah, this thing is great. The key presses feel very clicky and responsive. This is, of course, where the noise issue will come in for many people. If you don't want something that feels and thus sounds clicky, you'll want something else. It is quite loud, but I enjoy it.I would highly recommend holding onto the plastic protector that comes with it and just place that over top of the keyboard when not in use to keep this work of art sparkly clean. Just a small unintended bonus they gave people like me who like a clean keyboard, but endure a constant struggle with dust and cat hair...
