What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Akko 3098b is a great board for using straight out of the box or if you are comfortable with it, takes to modding quite easily. Features include hot-swappable switches, rgb, and all three connectivity options. The included usb-c connector is gold plat... Read More
The blue and black color scheme is definitely the classier of the two black versions. The software is excellent and you can upgrade the fw, remap keys, program macros and customize the lighting. Each rgb color can be set to 0-255 and a color palette i... Read More
The keycaps are amazing and are probably worth the price of this keyboard by themselves. It even comes with extra keycaps with an inverted color for novelty keys. It almost has the beautiful look of the sa keys, without being quite so tall.

Cons
It takes many tries to connect in usb mode, lighting doesn't update, and macro key getting reset and overwritten. All of a sudden the program freezes, my keyboard goes dark.

My initial thoughts are as such, and keep in mind this is just a hobby and i'm not an expert, these are just my opinions:the pa... Read More
But the main point of my review on akko is the keycap replacements.
Competitiveness
This is my favorite layout in which gives you most of the functionality of a full-sized keyboard but at the size of a tkl board.
It’s not as compact as a tenkeyless (tkl) keyboard, but keeps the best parts of the keyboard.
The 4th photo shows my example with a tkl keyboard.
Cons:-keycaps, while doubleshot pbt, are a little thin/cheap-feeling and have a taller profile (these are sa profile and i'm us... Read More
