Was a noob but now I'm a gaming GOD!!!!
before I begin I just want to apologize about my grammar lmao I know its bad. anyway I just got this about 2 weeks ago and love it so far. I have needed an upgrade for a long time coming. I had a cheap wireless Logitech keyboard that was like 15 dollars so wanted a upgrade with some back lighting. I was originally was going to buy the PX-1800 I think that's what it was but saw this one at the last minute, did some research on it and bought it, as its exactly what I was looking for and you cant beat the price. in my opinion there Is no reason to buy a $150 keyboard. I would recommend this to anyone that is looking for cool backlit gaming keyboard that is a very good price.There are some nit picky things that I wont knock down any stars for because they're not that big of a deal to me. the things that some people might find annoying are, the rubber little feet things on the bottom aren't that great. the left side of the keyboard slides around a bit and the right side is more stable and doesn't slide around. this hasn't hindered my gaming or anything. just something that some people might find annoying or it could get worse over time, but as of right now its not a problem. This isn't really a con but just so you know it is a pretty dang big keyboard. its way bigger than my other one. I had plenty of room so it didn't bother me at all. so if you don't really have the space just be aware it is big. another thing is I do wish the little stands on the back to put some angle on it were a tad bit taller but again hasn't been a huge deal or find my wrist's hurting or anything just nit picky stuff that people could find annoying. other than those tiny little things this keyboard is awesome.some of the good things are the keyboard is quiet when you type and to me I love the feel of the keys. mmmmmm yeaaaaaa lol. it does come with extra keys W,S,A,D and the arrow keys and I think some more, and it comes with a cool little key puller. I haven't made any new colors yet but the ones it comes with are awesome. when my wife gets on of course she puts it to pink and I have to admit it does look pretty groovy. I like playing on the green color but there are tons to choose from and they all look awesome. there are about 4 different brightness settings I noticed while seeing how bright it can go. I read a review on here saying that the colors just keep on cycling through and It was annoying. well while you are switching the colors there is a color choice where it will just go through all the colors, it will just keep cycling through. so for example it will start out like this, cycle colors then push the color button it goes to white, blue, red, green, yellow, ect. ect till you come back to the cycle one. also if you take your hands off the keys there is a time out function that it will turn off the back light within like 5 secs. if you put your hands back on the keyboard it will be the color that you left it as so that's cool. the window key lock button is so helpful. there have been so many times where I accidently hit it and im about to blast some dude away and I hurry up and click back in and im a big loser of the fire fight haha. all in all its a awesome keyboard and recommend it to anyone. hope this helps and if you have any questions I will answer them as best I can.

Malfunctioning keys
I ordered this keyboard and within 5 months the keys started double typing. Example. Keyyboard Doouble etypes.Support was fast but couldn't solve my problem completely. They couldn't replace the keyboard because they don't manufacture them anymore, and they didn't have any in stock. So my choice was to get a 20% rebate and keep the keyboard that is malfunctioning or send it back for a refund.Besides that Everything else works fine such as the lighting and the keys feel nice, but be weary if you plan on purchasing.

Really good, but software didn't work.
Quick run down:Pros--Works well with mac-Has mechanical feel-Nice lights (a bit dimmer than I originally thought though)-nice layoutCons--software didn't work-a bit bigI really like this keyboard. It's key layout is really nice, it sounds and feels a lot like a mechanical keyboard, the lights look really cool, and it works really well with mac (which is nice as I switch my keyboard/mouse between my desktop and my macbook). However, I could not get the software to work at all either from installing it off the included disk or downloading it from the internet. I really wanted to use the macro keys but unfortunately I could not get them to work. The actual keyboard itself is really good though.

I love its design
You get what you pay for. I've been using this keyboard for almost 7 months. I love its design, love how the keys feel. But it has two awful flaws, maybe even three. The first is the software. Honestly its one of the worst programs I have ever used to set up G-keys or change lighting affects of my keyboard. Those are the other two problems. The lighting turns off and changes, there doesn't seem to be a simple way of fixing the light to constant and on a specific color without $%#ing up all your other settings. Then the G-keys, even though I have given up on using the G-keys and set them to "1, 2, 3, ..... ect" when I still accidently hit them I don't simply type "1" instead It seems to just smash random keys.If you get this your getting,a nice design keyboardDurable KeysAwful backlighting that turns off after 15sec of nonuse, then switches colors"non-Programmable" G-Keys.An awful program

Couldn't run their software properly to program the keys
I'm kind of torn... the hardware is great. the keyboard is great to type on... but I bought it to use the programmable keys.. and the software does not work on Win 8 (more details at the bottom). I will try this on one more computer before I give up and ask for a refund...Details:I'm running Windows 8.1 Enterprise - I'm logged in as the local administrator - I run the software PX3200DriverST.exe (with admin privileges) - (it actually launches PX3200Driver4.exe) - I see the UI, but when I try to add a text command - I click on the 'Text' section and type into the two boxes 'test123', 'test123', and click confirm ... then the UI dissappears - I think the program crashed because that exe no longer shows up in task managerI try to launch it again - nothing shows up - I see in the task manager that PX3200Driver4.exe is present, but there is no UI.I've restarted my computer to bring up the UI again, I've tried uninstalling the driver and reinstalling - same thing - UI shows up once, program crashes when I try to add a Text command, then I am no longer to see the UI again until I restart or reinstall.I've tried both the driver on the cd and the driver on their website... I'm not willing to dig any deeper, most likely going to return this

Beautiful and functional!
Awesome keyboard. Saying you get what you pay for is true with many things and this keyboard is no exception. Worth every penny and does exactly what it says it does.

Three Stars
Response is good, not so easy to program macros. The backlight continually changes which is annoying at best.
