Lo mejor

Over the years, I have tested and used hundreds of keyboards. My general impression is that the earliest ones were the best, as to weight and feel. Though, newer key switch designs have improved and much more durable keys are now available on modern higher quality keyboards. This ZORNHER ZH870 Keyboard is definitely in that latter class.I must say I was impressed by the weight and feel of this keyboard out of the box. The key action did not disappoint, and rivals the best I have used, including high end Cherry keyboards often found in commercial IT facilities. I have little doubt that this keyboard and the keys will prove very durable. They are definitely in it for the long haul, as they even supply you with a "Key Puller" tool and three new spare key switches. That's a very nice and rare touch.This keyboard is packed with features. It can function wired or wireless, the latter either BlueTooth or using the included 4G WiFi USB Dongle. This is actually a very useful feature, especially if you are a hobbyist, playing with Raspberry Pi or Linux. I have had problems many times when setting up a new system or updating an existing one where the wireless keyboard functionality was lost or not automatically connecting. If you do not have a wired keyboard, or one with a plug-in USB WiFi Keyboard Dongle, which normally loads drivers and just works, you are out of luck. In that case, you can connect this keyboard physically and reconnect it via Bluetooth, if that's what you want. Most people might not need this. But, it is nice to have available.The keyboard comes with a reasonably good manual. But the RGB options, as well as the connectivity options are a bit complicated and not at all intuitive. So, don't lose the instructions. I'd recommend a sticker on the bottom, etc. with these setting functions detailed there so it can't be lost.I must say I really like this keyboard. The action feels great, and the quality is in the same league. But I am sorry I am going to have to drop a star because of the visibility of the key labeling. The RGB and backlit graphics on the keys are truly beautiful. But you cannot add bling to keys that obscure the key labeling. I attached a photo showing what I am talking about. You might be a touch typist, and never even not to look at keys. But not everyone is. This would be very easy for the manufacturer to fix. You can have the same graphics. But just include a small circle around the label on the affected keys within which the added graphic is omitted. the look will be the same. But you can see the keys without needing to count spaces. This is made worse, as if used for gaming the graphic is right on top of the most commonly used leys. If they correct this, it would be 5-Stars+.

This keyboard looks absolutely beautiful with the white topographic design, and the sound is super creamy and smooth right out of the box. The pre-lubed linear switches feel great to type on, and I love that it’s hot-swappable for future customization. Connection has been flawless and the RGB lighting is bright but not over the top. The keycaps also feel really solid. Really happy with this one.

this keyboard has a really satisfying click and the keys feel smooth right out of the box. Its heavy and the weight is actually a plus for me it doesn’t slide around at all while typing or gaming. my only gripe is that you can’t adjust the angle, but it happens to be set at a pretty comfortable one already. the spider web keycaps look unique and the rgb is clean without being too flashy. solid choice if you like a heavier mechanical board.
