Adata is at least consistent in the total garbage that is their products

Strengths:

No strengths

Weaknesses:

Non-replaceable switches, garbage keyboard. As with the previous user, several of these have completely died. I ended up just tossing the 2 I got, both of which failed within 4 months of standard typing work. (Not even gaming). Adata has been consistently spewing up all this substandard crap, all the way down to their flash drives and other products. The failure rate (don't just take my word on it, check all the reviews), is unforgivable. If you have cash to toss in the garbage, these are your keyboards, but take it from me, who purchased several items from the Adata disaster lineup, this company gives no care about consumer following. They want to get your money now, upset you, and never get a sale again. I avoid Adata like the plague now, Consider yourself warned.

Additional Comments:

Absolutely pathetic waste of plastic by a company who just wants your money and not your customer loyalty.

had three of these fail in a few months, initial impression was that they were awesome, but they didn;t last long

Strengths:

Solid key switches Sturdy chassis Heavy Wrist wrest is comfortable

Weaknesses:

Not reliable at all

Additional Comments:

I Bought 3 of these, two with Blue switches and one with silver switches, when they were on sale at ME for $60 last year. All failed in the form of non-responsive keys after several months of daily use (not gaming). One (blue) has lost half of the number pad, another (blue) lost half the number pad, the home row and several keys above the arrow pad, the last one (silver) lost shift keys and a few numbers on the numpad as well. All in all a major disappointment. I'll be trying to figure out what has actually failed on these, but initial tests with the PCB accessible on the most messed up of the three shows the switch contacts are working as they should, so this is something else on the board that has taken a dump. Had far better luck with the $40 no name mechanical blue switch boards from Amazon - the ones with the logo that looks like two axes back to back (forming a "T" shape) inside a shield. While the price looked good on these ADATA boards, I would strongly suggest anyone stay away from these at all costs. I don't know if this was jut a bad revision that I got, but they have been a total disappointment.

Mediocre keyboard, with nice RGB effects

Strengths:

RGB rainbow effect

Weaknesses:

The wrist rest magnet is a little weak, the material is crappy though, after like 4 months the faux leather layer is coming off, and most importantly my S and D keys paint is fading and those two keys look awful now. Safe yourself some annoyance and buy something else.

Additional Comments:

Buy something else, the pretty colors or discount don't justify buying it IMO

Absolute Junk

Strengths:

Cheap, high quality Cherry switches, feature rich for the price point

Weaknesses:

Extremely buggy. The first one I purchased would have several keys light up incorrectly and stop responding to keypresses after a few hours of use, and the replacement drops about 1/3rd of keypresses, even when the keys are fully depressed. Given that it's using high end switches, this has to be a problem with aData's implementation. I don't know if it's hardware or firmware, but something just doesn't work properly.

Additional Comments:

A keyboard that is very competitively priced and has a lot of premium features is only a positive when the basic functionality works. This keyboard is all polish and no quality, and is worth less than a $20 bottom of the barrel membrane keyboard because the latter actually works.

Excellent Value .... highly recommend

Strengths:

PRICE. Get it on sale for 80 bucks and you can't go wrong. Cherry red switches for a fraction of the price. It has like 7 presets, but XPG has a software program on their website, XPG Prime and you can customize each key for RPG. I just can't justify over 200 bucks for my Corsair K70, however Corsair did send out a key cap for free that had cracked. Thought I'd give this board a try and the wife inherited the Corsair. No regrets.

Weaknesses:

The software for custom RPG is not very intuitive, but I figured it out. It doesn't always keep the preset on reboot or putting the computer to sleep, so you have to close the program and restart it, but a minor annoyance for the price of this keyboard.

Additional Comments:

Can't go wrong if you get it on sale. Best value out there.

Great Keyboard and Value

Strengths:

Got this on sale for $79.99, you can't go wrong with this price!! especially when it comes equipped with the Cherry MX red

Weaknesses:

Limited RGB with 7 presets only

Additional Comments:

I went from my beloved Gigabyte Osmum with Cheery MX Brown to this. I know it does not have as many features as other keyboards on the market, but this is definitely worthwhile, great construction, Cheery MX red, RGB lighting, and a very comfortable palm rest pad!!! If you can get this on sale, go for it!!!

Good keyboard under $100

Strengths:

Real mechanical Real Cherry MX Free wrist rest that's detachable

Weaknesses:

Not a well known brand Cannot sync the RGB

Additional Comments:

My gaming experience with this keyboard is perfect. Got it during the daily sales and I am happy with my purchase. It doesn't allow me to sync the RGB with the rest of my system, couldn't find any software to download online. But given the price, it's half price of the Corsair K70 and you still get RGB and true mechanical Cherry MX. I would recommend to any of my friends who are on a budget. But of course, if you have too much money floating around, then go for the Corsair K70!
