Steelseries Apex 7

Durable aluminum body. Handy OLED mini-display with easy-to-use onboard menus. Snappy mechanical switches. Per-key-programmable RGB backlighting.

Loud key action, in Blue sample tested.

Bottom Line: A solid aluminum chassis, comfortable custom key switches, and a nifty OLED mini-display set apart SteelSeries' Apex 7 TKL, our favorite tenkeyless gaming keyboard to date.

+ Omnipoint Mechanical Switches are awesome (Apex Pro only) + Attractive RGB illumination + Magnetic wrist rest included + Incredibly sturdy frame + Available as tenkeyless +- OLED screen is fun but the use cases are limited

- Expensive - QX2 Red switches are noisy and lack any feel whatsoever (Apex 7 only) - Impossible to see the OLED screen most of the time - No macro keys

I still couldn't get used to typing on it very well. My first mechanical keyboard so it might take a little bit more time. Its much louder than I thought. Accidental key press happens quite a lot due to sensitive red switches. OLED screen is pretty...

It’s feels great for gaming and general use. RGB is very cool.

I had to buy O rings to dampen the click sound. I would recommend getting some from Amazon if you buy this. As a first time mechanical kB buyer, I wasn’t aware of what the switch colour types meant. Research before you buy. Also get Tkl ( ten keys less...
