SteelSeries Store Apex 5 Hybrid Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Per-Key RGB Illumination, Aircraft Grade Aluminum Alloy Frame, OLED Smart Display (Hybrid Blue Switch, USB)

The keyboard is amazing. It has per key illumination which the software is very cool with. It gets recognised by signal rgb software so it syncs everything together. The feel is good it has mechanical clicks with membrane so doesn't feel like your bottoming out the keys.

Never knew what I was missing out on before I got this. So. Worth. It.

This was rather pricey. Purchasing from Canada meant GST would increase the price by a noticeable amount, exceeding my budget, but I bought it anyway. It’s a very nice keyboard. It’s clean, looks a bit more minimalist which I really like. The RGB reflects nicely on the aluminum frame, though a couple more lighting effects would be nice to have. The software is good, took me a little bit of time to understand, but when I did, it was pretty good, you can customize each individual key to light up separately when pressed. The key caps are removable and can be replaced, which is great if I need to in the future. I won’t for a while though, they look really good, love the font, and they have a nice texture that is very comfortable for my fingers. The blue hybrid mechanical key switches feel awesome, they spring right back very quickly, and produce this slightly loud, but otherwise satisfying click, that also have a tactile feel. I typed much faster with this keyboard than I did with my old one. However there is one key that sort of makes this metallic reverberation, but then again it’s just one and I don’t let that bother me. It doesn’t take away from the overall experience. The caps lock key requires a bit more force because the led doesn’t always light up when it’s pushed gently so it’s hard to tell if caps is on or not if it’s not pushed hard enough. The wrist rest, despite not being cushioned or anything, is surprisingly very comfortable to use. I don’t sweat, and my hands stay on it nicely. Typing feels far more comfortable with it. Shame it’s not purely mechanical, but most of it is, I forget what makes it hybrid. Feels completely mechanical though, so I am happy! LED Display is a nice addition to it, but you need to download separate software to make it display discord notifications and other things, like time and Spotify. You have to open that application every time you turn on your computer to achieve that, but I honestly don’t care, it only takes me 3 seconds. I highly recommend this keyboard if you are willing to spend a little more money. It’s been great for me, and I’m sure it will be great for you too!

I love this keyboard because there was no scams, love the board nice texture perfectly the way pictured it, strong build P.S love the key clicking noises. I recommend buying it cause it is the best keyboard that’s not to pricy and not to cheap it’s just right very fast response! The 2 things that I love about this keyboard is The hybrid blue mechanical switches and secondly the OLED screen The 2 thing that I enjoy playing around with is definitely the illumination because of how creative you can get with it. Video of the clicking sounds! Above Definitely buy this keyboard! It’s awesome!!!

Excelentes materiales de construcción, amplias opciones para configurar prácticamente cualquier cosa del teclado y gran comodidad. Pasé de un teclado de membrana "gamer" Logitech G213 a este SteelSeries Apex 5 y la diferencia puede notarse. Desde los efectos RGB ampliamente configurables a través del software SteelSeries GG hasta el tacto en las teclas y el reposamuñecas (que está hecho de un material de plástico suave al tacto), todo es súper cómodo y de gran calidad. Algo que me gusta bastante de este teclado es su pequeña pantalla OLED en la esquina superior derecha, que puede configurarse con algún dibujo, algún GIF o con alguna de las integraciones que tiene con algunos juegos o programas. Yo particularmente la uso para monitorear mi sistema y ver la temperatura a la que se encuentra mi CPU y GPU de manera rápida y sencilla sin tener que ejecutar MSI Afterburner o RivaTuner SS. Sin embargo, tal y como vi en la propia página del producto y en algunas reseñas en YouTube, se podía visualizar la canción que estuvieras escuchando en el momento, pero por lo que pude investigar esto solo es posible si usas TIDAL y bueno, yo utilizo Spotify, por lo que esto no me agradó tanto. El sonido del teclado es notable y puede llegar a ser molesto si no estás acostumbrado o si vives con alguien más y sueles usarlo en las noches a no mucha distancia del resto de personas. El video que adjunto es muy fiel (considero yo) al sonido que obtienes una vez el teclado está en tus manos. Algo que me gustaría mencionar es que, a pesar de que el teclado venía bien empaquetado junto con otros productos, la caja del teclado en sí venía con algo de cinta extra en varios lados, lo que me hizo dudar un poco en si el producto era nuevo o usado, pero al abrirlo me di cuenta de que era nuevo o estaba en condiciones prácticamente perfectas, por lo que me quedé más tranquilo, pero ese detalle de cinta extra en la caja no me agradó demasiado.
