So close on hardware, ruined by software.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the hardware features of the actual keyboard. The keys were so bright, pretty, and felt like a dream. However this model DOES NOT HAVE ONBOARD RGB. Not to mention, no matter how you like your RGB, the ESC key will either flash green or stay green, overriding your selected color (for that key). Which if you are paying $250 for a keyboard, you’d expect full customization and not a random green key. Mine also came with a “critical firmware update” that took about 2 days for the start button to light up (don’t ask me). The keyboard is perfect for typing. The software and features outside of that suck. Too bad Corsair couldn’t give their software and steelseries give them this keyboard. I love the keys and typing on it, however I will be returning mine.

Will NEVER buy again
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.SteelSeries has NO replacement dongles! I lost my dongle during a move and worst part is that the dongle is REQUIRED to update the keyboard software. SteelSeries has NO options online for replacement and will force you through days of back and forth by email to tell you they aren't able to send out replacements either. Even worse, they offer replacements for older Apex Pro keyboard dongles online. It's something they CAN do but won't and those old dongles don't work regardless. This is a warning to anyone who buys this as SteelSeries will NOT help you out if you lose that dongle and you'll be stuck with what is essentially a brick since the Bluetooth connectivity is so bad and the wired connection isn't a priority.

Find a different wireless keyboard
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had some connection issues out of the box so I updated firmware. After the update, the Bluetooth would not connect and when it finally did the keys would take 30 seconds to register, if they registered at all. Did a factory reset and it would work for 15-20 minutes before not keys not registering again. After 5-6 factory reset I had enough and decided to return it. I own several Steelseries products and have had zero issues with them until this one. Do not buy until the firmware issues are fixed.
