Being able to individual tune keys is amazing. Ever fat fingered a grenade ? Say goodbye to Tks and fat fingers. Lighting is pretty dope as well. A little pricey? Maybe it is. Just go ahead and buy it dude. Your wife can only stay mad for so long right? Mine did... at least until I did something else to distract from it.
Good luck

First time buying a gaming keyboard and it’s perfect! Clicking isn’t too loud, you can adjust the actuation and brightness right on the screen built in the keyboard. Overall 10/10!

Purchased the SteelSeries Apex Pro to replace a Razer Blackwidow worn out through heavy gaming. All keyboards wear out eventually but I needed one that will take a pounding and last a few years. After doing the appropriate research chose the SteelSeries and so far it has lived up to expectations. I especially like the quality of construction, adjustable key sensitivity, customizable lighting schemes, feel of the palm rest, and inclusion of a dust cover as a nice touch.

I have used several mechanical gaming and proffessional keyboards from different brands with a wide variety of switch types and this really is my favorite without hesitation.
I use this keyboard for gaming (fps and mmo) and for work (data entry) and the ability to change profiles including key sensitivity was the main reason for the purchase. I use multiple sensitivity levels for gaming but for work I want a more even typing experiance. Being able to set individual key sensitivity per profile is amazing if you switch between game types.
The keys are not overly loud (cherry blues and anything from razer) and the sensitivity can be like a cherry speed or really slowed down to where a full press of the key is required for actuation.
The keys themselves dont really have a mechanical click like the cherry's which was expected but it doesn't feel vague either. It's a very satisfying middle ground where you feel it's been pressed due to the resistance without too loud of an audible click. Noise volume is probably closer to my Ducky with the mx browns. Key actuation is very smooth.
The keyboard itself is very nice and not huge like the logitech's or corsairs I've had. For my desk it fit perfectly with the wrist rest which is very nice. The corsair k95 is the only other keyboard that I used that had a better one but I'm splitting hairs. The keyboard isnt super heavy but it doesn't move around and stays in place. It feels and looks quality without being too futuristic or coming across as a gaming only keyboard based on looks.
I haven't had a chance to play around with the screen. They are kind of a gimmick but a lot of people are writing apps for it for various things if you like that kind of stuff.
My only complaint has more to do with the software. Its NOWHERE near as bad as razer's but sometimes it doesn't switch between my profiles when I open and close certain programs like it should and for whatever reason after some reboots or prolonged sleep period it defaults to some sort of color scheme that isnt a part of any of my set configurations. That said, it was very easy to configure and the same software portal seems to work with other steelseries products (headphones in my case)

Without getting into custom switches, this is by far the best keyboard you can purchase. The magnetic switches they have here, even ignoring the incredible adjustable actuation feature, are nothing short of phenomenal. They're buttery smooth and are beyond pleasing to type on! The OLED screen is a nice bonus but I wouldn't consider it the main selling point of this keyboard. By pure feel, this keyboard is absolutely worth the money, and I can't imagine using another keyboard anytime soon.

I really love this keyboard. Having been a logitech fan for years, I was not sure I wanted to switch. But after typing on this keyboard, I fell in love. All the extras of lighting and oled display are just bonus.
The keyboard has a solid feel about it without being overly heavy or chunky. The wrist rest is very pleasant to use and clips on magnetically.
The steel series software seems to have issues occasionally, but once everything is set up how I want it, I don't really use the software much, so that is just a minor drawback.
I am happy with my choice and would buy it again.

Nice keyboard that isn’t too flashy (unless you want it to be). Keys are responsive and the Omnipoint functionality is a cool feature that I’m excited to dive deeper into. The Steel Series engine is easy to navigate and makes it easy to customize your keyboard and RGB settings. My only real gripe is the rubber wrist rest. The fact that it’s magnetic is awesome but the texture makes it awkward to clean particularly if just try to brush it off. Overall though it’s a great keyboard I would recommend.

I upgraded to this from the Apex M750, which I loved, but the upgraded features on this keyboard make it worth the shift and price. All the adjustable switches are amazing, while I only adjusted a few keys for practicality. In terms of RGB, it's great, even though there are fewer options than the M750 as far as patterns are concerned. The OLED screen, scroll wheel and button are very nice too. Being able to switch profiles, illumination, and some settings without having to open the SSE is a very nice feature. All in all, I'd say it's worth the buy.

WOW, what a keyboard! A mechanical keyboard, it feels great. This is easily the very best keyboard that I have ever used. Everyone will have different opinions on which is best etc, but after getting this one, I will not be buying a new one until the day this one no longer works. Then I will buy this one or an improved keyboard later. The RGB is fantastic, so many options to use. Looks GREAT, feels GREAT, NO complaints at all. It is very pricey for sure, but for me I think its worth it without a doubt.

It has been said that when it comes to the tools you make your living with, get the best.
I make my living with this keyboard in my job in IT. Because I can type so much faster, my productivity greatly increased when I invested in the SteelSeries Apex Pro. No other keyboard, gaming or otherwise, feels quite like the Apex Pro. I love it an it's the only one I will use!

thought of keyboard I’ve ever used. You can put GIFs on the OLED screen which is really funny and he also the color changes through the software is really dope and there’s really nothing bad about this keyboard aside from it having two USB ports that you would need to use since it is a very power demanding keyboard but if you got the motherboard in the space

Best keyboard I have used. Easy to clean, easy to use. The wrist rest is definitely a game changer. It is super comfortable. If I had one complaint, the keystrokes are quite loud when compared to the typical keyboard or even other top quality keyboards.

Great keyboard. Keys are buttery smooth. I did end up swapping it for a TKL as my mouse was hitting the number pad. In my new model, I do have the PRISM keys. If you get this, they are a must and feel really great. I love this wrist rest as well. I have had no issues with the SteelSeries engine software. Others talk down to it, but it uses lower memory, and is simple to navigate unlike synapse.

I had to buy as soon as I felt how quick and smooth these keys are.
They’re not clicky which is how I prefer and they’re extremely fast making even typing fun.
The steel series engine is what really lets the keyboard shine and stand out.
Every single key is customizable and each can have its own individual effect.
It comes with a neat screen that you can customize to display anything your imagination can conjure up.
100% satisfied with my purchase.
