This keyboard is a dream to type on for hours. The keys have a satisfying resistance without being too stiff, and the full-size layout is perfect for my accounting tasks. I love that I can switch between my Windows PC and Mac laptop effortlessly using the specific OS layout keys, and the wireless connection has been rock solid. The battery life is also seriously impressive, I haven't needed to charge it in months with moderate backlight use.
This mechanical keyboard is perfect for my daily work tasks. The keys are comfortable and responsive, which really helps with long hours of typing. The battery lasts forever too, which is a huge plus.
The keyboard itself performs very well; the keys are responsive and the battery life is excellent even with the backlight on. I primarily use it for work on my Windows desktop. My only complaint is that the ABS plastic keycaps feel a little less premium than I'd hoped for a mechanical keyboard.
Comfortable key presses and easy setup for both my work and personal computers.
The typing experience is quite good with a nice tactile feel. However, I've noticed a slight delay when first connecting via Bluetooth to my Mac after it's been idle. It usually connects, but not always instantly, which can be annoying when you just want to get to work.
