I think it is a mechanical keyboard. That's what the description says. I will double check. If it is a non-mechanical KB, I will be returning it, even before opening it. Thanks

It's probably mechanical "feeling". See the description: "and the advanced semi-mechanical keys offer a fast, precise typing experience."

I hate these stupid N-key-roll or whatever and USB2.0 keyboards. They don't work with my KVM, possibly don't work with BIOS of many MB, and in this case in the question section someone stated it does not work with PS4.

Can't they just make a mechanical gaming keyboard that does nothing more than a normal keyboard?

I have mechanical keyboards as a deal alert in SD out of curiosity, but I would never buy a discount mech kb. I think these net a bunch of neophytes and entry-level gamers, but what is considered an actual good experience will never run you this low - and will never be found at a BestBuy.

I think it's using cheap outemu switches. Alot of sub $40 Mechs use them. eBay is riddled with them. Theyre not bad, just stupid loud

Looks like generic Cherry blue switches with a true RGB backlight not just a fixed rainbow of colors so not a bad deal at 23. I prefer the browns and now have several keyboards with blue switches I'm not using anymore. Would have jumped on this if it was browns tho.
