Only downside is the visibility of keys. Speaking from 15 years of keyboard connoisseur taste. I'll wait for a better color version to purchase

I waited for months until the C64 version rolled around on a deal. Finally it did and I bought it - honestly just for fun, I wasn't expecting it to match up to some of my more expensive boards but I was hugely surprised - it's pretty much my favourite kb to type on now.
Definitely will get another. No use for the huge buttons though..

I was so impressed by the c64 version of this keyboard that I decided to pull the trigger. I see the reviews saying the RGB backlight makes the keys hard to read, but even just for the chassis and the switches this is a pretty great deal. I swap the keycaps on most of my mechanical keyboards and I can do the same with this if the stock ones aren't readable enough.

With the back lights on I couldn't read what the keys say . If you know where the keys are it may not be a problem for you..I ended up buying the gravastar mercury v60 Much better keyboard and love the lighting
