I believe they are mappable to be whatever you want them to be. Product description calls them "super buttons".

Interesting take, considering it's bluetooth I would imagine the batteries would give it some weight.
I ordered one so I'll be able to compare it to my coolermaster bluetooth keyboard (which I've been really happy with)

I own 2 of these keyboards (IBM and NES edition) and I love them. However, I've been reading around here that this Xbox version has some changes that aren't the greatest like rounded keys and the backlight essentially making the letters unreadable. It's a shame cause I really wanted this but what's the point if the typing experience sucks?

Will this sound super loud under light load use and will this self destruct with the ring of death from overheating? Typical of this generation xBox?

Damm... At this price I'm sold.
I already have the NES version, but since they released this green beauty, I'm trying to resist.

I don't have the Xbox version but the NES themed version has been pretty nice for me, wish it had back lighting.

He meant this generation as in the same generation as the vibe of the keyboard. 👍

I like it. The round-ish keycaps are kinda weird but I think I'll get used to them.
I do like the overall size WAY more compared to my 65%, having just a tiny bit of extra space around the arrow keys is great.
The backlighting is way too strong if you put it past like 50%, I didn't usually have my backlighting that bright on my old keyboard anyway. The color tuning is way better than on my Glorious and the software is pretty good, I'd say it's better when compared to both glorious and coolermaster.
