Not for the Backlight
I've had this keyboard for over 4-5 months now and I'd like to say that it's pretty good. As my first mechanical keyboard, I see it as a huge upgrade from membrane keyboards. I wanted to find a keyboard that was silent and had BT & wired capabilities. So I was off looking for keyboards with Brow switches and those features. This one does the job even though it's not brown switches, I am satisfied with the sound that each click produces.Pros:- sturdy- silent- extra features accessories (3 BT connections, multiple light modes, extra keycaps)Cons:- backlight isn't that good (40% clarity; Lights off; Full brightness)I really like this keyboard. The thing that bugs me is that you can barely see the keys with the backlight which destroys the entire purpose of having a backlight. So if you are looking for a keyboard with good backlight, stay away from this one. If you don't care, it's a really nice keyboard.

This-keyboard rocks
The key board is easy to connect and set up. The face plate is also easy to take out just remove side nobles. When I’m gaming the keys feel amazing and smooth. I prefer this than the McGee keyboard .

Sakura switches feel gummy
This keyboard is hefty, has a massive battery, and is fun to use. I personally think the sakura switches are ok, but for some reason, the spacebar, the enter key, backspace, shift keys, caps lock keys all feel very gummy. I am not sure if this is just a result of the keyboard switches underneath not having the same type of key feel as the actual switch or if this is just how a sakura switch is meant to feel for these longer keys.The box came with the keyboard, a handful of custom keycaps, a key puller, a yellow cable that matches the motif of the keyboard, and a different colored top housing/face. There was also a better than normal plastic cover that I honestly didn't realize was meant to be a dust cover for the keyboard itself.The reason I gave it 4 stars is primarily the unintuitive secret keys that are needed in order to use the bluetooth, as well as other indicator lights. For some reason, unlike other keyboards, this has a very unintuitive set of buttons that do not seem to behave as you would expect a wireless keyboard to behave. Their keys come with standard markers for what each key with the Fn would do. However the other stuff seems to be information you need the product page for, or the manual for.The bluetooth and cable modes are governed by Fn+delete key. Usually for other mechanical keyboards, there's a switch that handles if it's in wired/wireless mode. a physical switch that needs to be flipped. For instance, keychron has a 3 position slider that is wired, off, wireless. The Anne Pro 2 has an on/off switch. when the keyboard is off, and you plug the cable to it, it behaves like a wired keyboard. Also, the anne pro 2 has some software that you can download to program the keyboard. I believe the anne pro2 has a lower price point than this. I guess the price point has more to do with the bells and whistles.What are the bells and whistles? it has 2 knobs. 1 to control the keyboard's backlight and another to control volume. I do use the volume button frequently enough that the knob is a nice touch. There are indicator lights for when you have caps lock on. Usually on other keyboards, they just change the color of the caps lock to indicate it is enabled/disabled. However, this does not have caps that are illuminated, it's just a backlight so it doesn't look as good in the dark.All of the below was lifted from the original posting and i have saved somewhere handy so i don't need to keep going back to their product page.Fn + Delete: Switch wired mode or Bluetooth mode.Fn + Q/W/E: Switch among the Bluetooth devices connected under Channels 1 to 3.Fn + Backspace: Switch to Game Mode, lower overall latency, trigger faster.Fn + the right Alt: check the charging status through the Esc indicator light.Fn + Enter: Switch to F1/F2/F3.... keys or Numbers Keys.Fn + ←/→: Lower the speed/speed up the light effectFn + ↑/↓: Previous Effect/Next Effect (Loop)Space bar: in Sleep Mode, press space to wake up the keyboard.

Great performing mechanical keyboard.
I wasn't too sure about this board when I ordered it. The look is a little strange and the price seemed a little bit steep. However, once I got it in my hands, this thing is pretty awesome.It's fairly quiet and the switch force is nice and lite. It also comes with bluetooth and 2.4Ghz wireless. If you like RGB maybe pass on this board but for the bulk of people who have been using backlit keyboards for a while the basic white LEDs will work just fine. I don't think the keys are shinethrough but you can read the legends in day or night easily with the lights on.The stabilizers are tuned really well on the unit I received as well. The keyboard is a little more on the thock side of things but with some tuning you could definitely get a number of different sound profiles through modding.

A well built keyboard with some rather puzzling features...
There are many things I like about this keyboard. The mechanical keypress sensitivity feels perfect to me, someone who has used various keyboards and typewriters since the early '80s. I find I far prefer it to the cheaper 'membrane' keyboards that most current ones on the market are, and I believe it's worth its somewhat higher cost.The convenience of it being a bluetooth wireless keyboard with a pretty hefty battery is another plus. If you have access to a constant USB port you can also use that for constant power, even if it only supplies power and is not connected to your PC.These keyboards are highly customizable and this one comes with choices of colors for important keys like the space bar and the return key.This keyboard has a backlight feature, white light only, and it glows under the key. Personally I find little use for this since it does not illuminate the letter in any way. Also, it has a rather over convoluted design for screwing on an outer piece to provide a keyboard kickstand.Being that this is a reduced size keyboard. there is no side number pad and the top row of F keys are also not present. You can perform F key functions with a few combined key commands. This works well enough in my experience.It's a little pricey, but the nice mechanical keypress feel and high battery life make this an overall recommend from me.
