- Has a great feel to it. - Software allows full customization and remapping ability.

- Durability. Although this keyboard touts a aircraft grade aluminum frame. Everything else attached to that frame feels like it could break at any moment. - Key travel. The keys have a large amount of travel, significantly more than needed and no way to adjust this. - A large number of keys don't even work out of the box. They are disabled by default. I hate this opt-out culture that everything has gone to. A keyboard should be a keyboard, until you want to change the way it works. - The software, although powerful and fully customizable, it has some of the worst UI I've seen. Overly complex and convoluted. (Not as bad as the corsair iCUE software, but close. - Who thought it would be a great idea to enable sound to play through your speakers when you press a key to mimic the sound of a clicky keyboard, or a typewriter, or spaceship. Really? I bought a silent keyboard for a reason, which isn't silent at all even when you turn off the sound. It's very loud.

Overpriced junk. Plain and simple. It feels like an experiment to create something that a small group of people would want. I guess that's why this is $60USD everywhere else on the internet. It's the only way to sell them. At that price, it would be fine. I had this keyboard for less than a day before choosing to refund it. I'm the kind of person "if it's good enough and works, I'm stuck with it." And after looking at most of the reviews around the internet the last thing I want to do is deal with Roccat's warranty service after this thing dies in 6 months.

My favorite keyboard to use ever. The feel and response is amazing.

I've owned 2 of these Keyboards, and both just died on me. No water, no damage, they just stopped working. Its heart breaking because I love the product, but if its not going to work, im not sure what the point is.

If you are going to buy, purchase an additional warranty that will let you replace the product if it defects. From what im reading ROCCATs warranty isnt worth much.

Over engineered

Within 13 months of ownership several keys lost connectivity and power was interrupted due to a faulty USB cable connection inside the board.

You are better off buying a Corsair or Logitech IMHO

While it lasted I loved the feel of the switches but both of my keyboards, the one I bought and the warranty one, started failing before a year.

Switches started failing before a year.

Myself and a friend have both had 1 Warranty keyboard (2 keyboards each). This switch issue doesn't seem to be a localized batch issue which is disappointing because it was an expensive keyboard. I'll probably try tearing it apart and seeing if it's a soldering issue I can fix on my own as roccat will not Repair it and won't cover a warranty keyboard.

I like everything about this keyboard, the feel, the look.

I use this keyboard for gaming, and within a year of owning it the E key no longer works. I wish it was a key that I don’t need because that one is kind of critical. A year is not long enough for a premium keyboard to be crapping out.

I love it, but can’t recommend after a poor failure.

A pleasure to type on truly.

keys have a soft texture that can wear off. only a slight amount has on 1 key. other than that a true pleasure to own

Simply the best

Keys feel great. almost a rubbery feel to the tips.

Price

The reviewer that said the software didn't work should learn how to run a .exe file. Software works great! It is much easier to use than Corsair's app.

RGB is vibrant, the software gives some really cool layout options to utilize this Honestly really like the switches, came from an older k70 with cherry switches and these feel natural coming from that. I LOVE the caps only covering the tops of the switches, it makes the lighting pop a lot more than other RGB keyboards ive seen, it also gives plenty of room for cleaning any debris. The media and FX keys are a nice addition so, you can control the brightness of lighting effects with the FX key and volume knob.

Wristrest could be better/comfier

Overall I quite like this keyboard. I researched a lot of different options but as soon as I found this one I stopped the search.

-Great responsive key presses. -Switches are very comfortable, feel like a perfect fit between cherry and brown. -Super easy to keep clean -Probably the best RGB effects and lighting animations I've ever seen. You can literally just sit and stare at it go. -Keys have a little more space between them then normal keyboards, its minor but feels more natural.

-Crappy wrist rest. It snaps together with keyboard via magnets, but is made of cheap plastic despite its cool design. -RGB special effects require razor software to be running at all times in background minimized (aka doesn't save to keyboard). -Cheap looking volume knob compared to rest of design, good feedback though.

I spent hours researching for a new keyboard and trying various switches out in shops. I spend all my free time writing or gaming, comfort and functionality was key to me. After two weeks of owning/using Roccat's Vulcan keyboard I am VERY happy with my purchase. I love the switches, I've read in other reviews they feel like something between Cherry and brown switches and its very true - and in a very good way. Typing is super responsive and feels very natural. I like the design and the open keys allow for stupid easy cleaning since you don't have to remove anything to get at grime like other keyboards. I've seen a few people report problems with the software, I've had none so I'm not sure why some people have issues and others don't. The lighting effects are amazing, the best way to describe the "Aimo" effect is as a "aurora borealis" on your keyboard. My biggest complain would be the wrist rest, it looks cool and connects via magnets but is made of cheap plastic and I ended up wrapping the surface in a thin layer of polar fleece. Now its comfortable but I'm not sure why they included such a cheap wrist rest for a premium product. Overall I'm very happy with my purchase and would recommend if your looking for a great keyboard to type on.

Looks very unique has a nice solid brush metal face Works well and software was easy to setup using roccat swarm. Keys are a bit quieter than cherry reds which is what I was looking for. Intelligent RGB Aimo has a really interesting pattern. Not sure what the other guys problem is that wrote a review but so far I've had no issues if your looking for a slightly quieter ie brown switch level keyboard.

Haven't had any issues so far

Very solid so far and price was good for the quality. Also picked up a roccat mouse and its lasted longer than any razor products I've had.
