This is a decent price, but I really don't like these boards. I bought an Apex Pro TKL wireless (2023) a few years ago. The RGB is entirely tied to software that needs to run to work. It can't be programmed and defaults to rainbow without the software. After the warranty expired (1 year? IIRC) I've had five different colored LEDs fail, the blue ones specifically. So the switches that failed can no longer show blue. Overall really disappointed with the design and quality.

I used the fun60 as an example and specifically asked for no one to tell stats on the largest 3 analog kb companies, I literally have an analog rn but it has shit build quality and is falling apart so I want an upgrade, and if I will upgrade I don't want to waste money on a razer, wooting, or steelseries that are overpriced asf, I want to know if there are any genuine downsides to the "budget" analog keyboards compared to the primary companies, for perspective I currently have a 2023 Apex Pro TKL

performance wise, steelseries does have some pretty close numbers to wooting, but I wouldn't buy from them again because of their terrible build quality, my stabs are literally falling off of my steelseries apex pro tkl

I have the steel series apex gen 2. Im debating between wooting and Gravastar. Wooting because it has full keyboard and gravastar only has 75% for the HE butttons

Steel Series Apex Pro TKL brother. Best keyboard I've ever owned, it's fantastic.

LCD and OLED screens on keyboards are dumb and useless depending on your positioning. Had a SteelSeries keyboard with an OLED screen to which I never used for the 7 years I used it.
