MageGee Portable 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, MK-Box LED Backlit Compact 68 Keys Mini Wired Office Keyboard with Blue Switch for Windows Laptop PC Mac - Blue/White

So this is a cheap keyboard, my expectations were not high. It comes with a keycap puller which is nice. The caps come off pretty easy, they include extra caps of different color so I was able to swap them out to match the image. I really like the color combos. Aesthetically speaking it looks sharp. For such a cheap keyboard, the backlights are nice, however, the different color keycaps mute the backlight depending on the color of the caps. Some allow more/less light to shine through. Typing experience is "ok" they are mechanical but the switches are not hot swappable. The action is not bad, but I'm not a huge fan either. I wanted to take the keyboard apart to see if I could play with the insulation and damping but it seems like the screws holding it together are all under the key caps so you'd have to remove a bunch of them to get it apart which I'm just not terribly inclined to do it. The sound is a bit hollow, "thocky" or "creamy" this is not. However, it's mechanical, I can type very fast, overall I like the feel and for the money? I mean... It came with a decent cord, it types, and it does keyboard things. You really can't complain. Now having said all that this is a 65% I think? I am going to use it in a very small space so size is great, I love it, but... I miss a legit F-row of keys. I don't care for this layout. I will get a larger keyboard next time. This is a budget keybaord, switches are not hot swappable, it has decent heft, 2 levels of rear risers, for the cost, really, it's a decent option if you like this size/format of keyboard. It's really small.***Recently I saw a question from someone who bout this keyboard about alt+0224 type key combos*** Since I wasn't with the keyboard I couldn't answer but now I can't find the email. I suspect that because the top row of keys is combined with the F-keys that in order to make the ascii type combos you will need alt+FN+0224 or whatever the 4 digit combo is that you're after. See if that works. Since the user didn't post which one he was trying to create I couldn't try it myself but I suspect this will get you there.

I've been a die-hard DasKeyboard user since their first generation keyboard, back in the late 90s or early 2000s. I've purchased a dozen of them over the years. I've been carrying one of their compact models in my laptop bag since the post-pretendemic "back to the office" push, and many of the keys have become sticky, typing multiple characters for every press, and seem to be immune to cleaning, even with high-pressure air. Add to this the fact that they switched away from using hinged-feet for angle control to using glue-on silicone (which detached in the first year) and a magnet-attached plastic ruler as a foot, and the whole design was just hinky. I reached out to them for support, and they wouldn't help. Another iconic brand value-engineered out of existence.I would never have looked at other keyboards if DasKeyboard had been responsive to my issues, but I simply could not justify spending another $200 (plus blank keycaps) for the same keyboard that I had just picked up a couple of years earlier. When I got the MageGee compact for $27, my expectations were very low. I had never used these non-cherry key switches before, and had no idea what the responsiveness or break-away sensitivity would be like. I was ready to be disappointed, but damn, this keyboard is great!Its durability for coding and command-line operational work will be tested in the coming years (I'm hard on my keyboards), but at first blush, this is a simply excellent replacement for my old DKs, and at 1/8 the price! It's got 2 sets of flip out feet for 3 possible height settings, it's VERY compact, and it has the sharpness that I require from a mechanical keyboard.I'd love it if replacement keycap sets were available (especially some blank ones), but I'm otherwise pretty damned pleased.

Good keyboardSome keys died after a bit of useDon’t drop it as you can risk breaking the USBC portDon’t use any other cables besides what’s givenHas cool lightsSounds greatComes with additional stuff likeKeycapsAnd a keycap pullerIt’s not a membrane keyboard it’s a mechanical.Honestly a good keyboard for the priceBut you would be better off investing more money for a better keyboardAs I had to buy two keyboards with the same issues after using it for a bit.

Very good keyboard for a cheap price. Sounds tacky, like typing on a typewriter. The tilt angle is just perfect. A little small but thay is what I ordered and needs a little hetting used to. Overall a perfect keyboard for the price. If you are a programmer, even better, coding sounds ecstatic!

This keyboard will not let you down. You don't need to be heavy handed and the keys are smooth not very loud. I work with a lot of people around and they don't find it annoying while I type away and the lighting is perfect and as described. Very good purchase. Very satisfied.

I've never used a mechanical keyboard. But I wanted to try it, and this one was cheap. I bought it to play cs. I don't feel a clear click when pressing, but I like the sound and feel of the keys typing. Nice backlighting. The keyboard is small, unaccustomed to the lack of f-keys.If you don't have clear requirements and want to try mechanics inexpensively, this is your choice

Very nice keyboard with a good backloght that makes working in the dark perfect, perfect value for $30 and overall very responsive. The buttons feel awesome and include some extra keypads for free, does make a bit of noise but not to much.
