Decided after years of rubbish keyboards to spend some money and get a proper keyboard

Wanted wireless (I know I’m terrible)

But I’m liking my selection! MXRSKEY CK820

Loving the aluminium shell!

Why would wireless be terrible? I've been wanting a wireless board too

From what I read, it’s got a slower response time than wired I think?

I mean, sure, but with normal 2.4ghz and modern Bluetooth it shan't be an issue for most uses

If you're gaming at a high level most boards have a wired mode

For some unknown reason I thought man was posting a picture of the keyboard that he took earlier (one on the computer). Nice keyboard to both ops!

Hey great look. I was thinking of getting the green one how is the battery life and wireless mode on it.

Wireless 2.4 is pretty decent my usb receiver is under my desk on a KVM so it can get through about 1 inch of table fine, haven’t tested distance on it yet

I think battery is decent, I haven’t had the chance to test how long it will last, I normally have it on the rgb setting that only shows when pressing keys so I think it will last longer than if I had it on the setting in the picture, I’ll get back to you on that.

I believe mine lasted a good 20ish hours with all the LEDs on, including side lights.

Doesn't sound too bad with all the rgb on. Thank you for the info.

This is basically the gmmk pro but wireless that I've wanted. It delivers, but it's also hollow and pingy as fuck. HOWEVER, I did see a bunch of Chinese videos of people having an FR4 plate, poron foam, pe foam and different pcb foam. I managed to eventually find a way to buy the foam, but unfortunately it's not here yet. Yunexpress is awful, I ordered the 26th and it's still not here lol. Regardless, the board sounded much better after that in said videos. You can buy the foam on whatgeek, if you're interested. Though if you love in the US, I'd highly suggest paying for the most expensive option of shipping. I figured the middle teir would.be a bit faster, but zero difference between that and the free shipping.

Edit I don't know where you bought it or if you're aware, but there is software to rebind. Nothing is locked, so you can change anything, and you don't need to keep software open for changes to work;

Yep I found the software, it’s not too bad

Sound wise, I haven’t anything to compare too, it’s my first board and I liked the look.
