MSI Vigor GK71 Sonic Mechanical Gaming Keyboard (UK Layout) Sonic Red Switches (Linear), Ergonomic Keycaps, Anti-slip Base, Per-key RGB Mystic Light, USB 2.0 - Full-Sized

This combo set of MSI keyboard and mouse it a nice addition to a gaming desktop set up, particularly if you have an MSI motherboard and MSI centre on your machine. In terms of usability, my other keyboards are mechanicals and this keyboard measures up pretty well. It has a nice feel to it and the key layout is good. Key size is average so typing on it took very little change for me. The response is quick too, so everything I need for gaming or doing something that requires typing longer text - like this review. The mouse is also good. Response is decent and it has a nice feel. It is quite a compact mouse so if you prefer a large size this may not be the one for you. It is just about right for me, but definitely smaller than previous ones. In terms of gaming and general use though, it picks up well and is a nice mouse to use. If you do have MSI Centre installed then this co-ordinates nicely. Mystic Light will coordinate all the lighting across all the items. And the Gaming Gear section will allow easy customisation of the mouse. Overall I think this is a good value set, great for general use and gaming, and definitely recommended if you want to co-ordinate across the MSI ecosystem.

Really nice TKL keyboard. I got a good deal at prime day and had a voucher to apply and felt it was the best value for what dosh I had to spend, and felt I didn't want to go down the full custom route. The important thing - the keycaps and switches. The linear switches are light and exceptionally smooth and are KTT purple star's and are south facing. I'm unsure of the key profile but they have a nice slightly textured feel and are PBT double shot. The font used is a bit weird with a mixture of upper and lower case, though is readable ("gamery?"). The keys sound great and the stabs are very smooth. The LCD lighting is strong with vibrant colour with nice animations and is tunable with key shortcuts and the built in screen. The screen shows what device is connected and battery power and allows you to select from 20 lighting presets with tunable brightness, speeds and main colours, plus an off setting. The WiFi connection with included dongle is fine with no appreciable lag and connected by USB is fine also. I have not tried Bluetooth. The 2 stage height adjustment is fine with strong legs that are rubber capped. Also there are 4 hefty rubber feet to use flat, and have great traction. The usb cable has rear and left and right routing. The board is weighty and feels like a premium device. Downsides You can only change settings on the board with the screen - no MSI app for this (yet?) and perhaps they think it doesn't need app support? I would have liked to setup game spefic profiles myself. The screen is only a keyboard status indicator and programmer for lights. There is no date time or any other programmability. It is a little creaky if you twist it but that's a bit extreme. If you have usb plugged and routed out the side there is a bit of strain on the cable just after the connector. But saying these downsides, it's is really smooth to type with and feels nice when gaming, looks good and feels solid, so i can't mark it down for those, it's a great package.

I recently got the MSI VIGOR GK30 Combo, and it’s been a great upgrade for my setup. The keyboard has responsive keys with decent tactile feedback, and the RGB lighting looks amazing and is fully customizable. The included mouse is comfortable and precise for gaming sessions, making this combo excellent value. Build quality feels sturdy, and setup was quick and hassle-free. Perfect for casual and competitive gamers who want a stylish and functional combo without breaking the bank.

Amazing keyboard but colour choices are very limited.

This keyboard is nice and quiet. Led lit. Made to last and easy to setup with MSI Centre.

Excellent keyboard with solid build quality. However, after receiving a Gravastar keyboard for Christmas, I found it to be even better. I tried both and ultimately decided to stick with the Gravastar.

Pros The keyboard itself has good switches, feels great, the polling rate is excellent over 2.4 GHz wireless. Cons 1. The switches for OS and wireless/usb/bluetooth are placed on the underside. I use this between my laptop and desktop pc and laptop and each time I have to switch I have to keep flipping. This is annoying. 2. The keys themselves aren't illuminated. There's a backlight but if you're someone who doesn't remember key positions on keyboard by heart, you will struggle in the dark.

I bought these as a Christmas Gift for my son, and he loves them, ALOT. I did test them out to ensure it works (Since I knew he would be on his new PC immediately!) And low and behold, they are actually very nice! The mouse is particularly a highlight in this set. It is very well weighted and very accurate. The mouse wheel is ideally sensitive and broad making scrolling a pleasure. The sensor works on a wide variety of surfaces I tested it on, from carpet to sheets to tables to shiny counter tops. The Keyboard is also a great piece of kit, It is well weighted and the RGB works well for those that like it. The keyboard is well sized and accurate and not too bad for faux mechanical switches (I know they are membrane). I does not come close to my Razer BlackWidow at all, but then again it cost a 10th of the price of my Razer Setup so for the price, it is well worth it and Ideal for any gamer on a budget!
