Pros & Cons
Pros
The kit includes a key cap remover, a switch remover and the manual. The keycaps are retro looking and dye-sub but the best part of buying from a company that produces so many different keyboard products is they are smart enough to use a universal key... Read More
The akko x gateron switches are very smooth and deliver a fantastic typing experience. This thing is by far the smoothest, and nicest typing experience i've ever had. The switches it comes with (linear, strength between mx red and black) are quite goo... Read More
I have a laptop with windows 7, it works great, but i barely use my old laptop anymore. While there are no multimedia keys there are fn + shortcut keys to access some of these functions built into the keyboard.
Only gripe about this keyboard is i wish it came with an aluminum faceplate. It is very reminiscent of oldschool keyboards. Given the excellence in every other department, the rgb looking slightly weird is an acceptable trade-off.
Comes beautifully packaged and with a few extras. This is nicer than a lot of name brand keyboards. Besides the packaging, the keyboard itself is really nice.
Highlights
Quality
I'm a big fan of the design of the keycaps and their quality seems to be good.
The build quality of the keyboard is great, everything seems to be built well and is of high quality.
This cannot be connected by bluetooth, and the product can only be turned on by where it's hooked too.
Update: i'm having an issue with the j key keycap popping off while typing.
Price
The quality for the price is fantastic.
I own keyboards that cost hundred of dollars (im not proud of that).
Packaging/appearance
Besides the packaging, the keyboard itself is really nice.
I just have to say, i am so impressed with the packaging.
The keycaps don't allow any light through, so it is just lighting from around the keycaps.
This keyboard sounds almost identical from the spacebar to to the wasd keys.
Competitiveness
Most keycap manufacturer sets will fit this keyboard.
I'm not sure if the akko pinks are a rebranded gateron switch or an akko design but they are clearly a winner in my opinion.
It is very reminiscent of oldschool keyboards, as soon as i saw it it reminded me of the ibm model m.
I've been buying their keycaps for a few years now and this is my first keyboard from them but it's definitely making its way i... Read More

I tried finding the correct rgb software from their website but the few i tried didnt seem to be compatible with this board

I have a habit of hitting the space and shift keys harshly making them quite loud while typing

Thankfully their switches were trivial to replace with heavier halo clears in short order giving a more uniform volume while typing

The keyboard is marketed specifically for its southfacing pcb so it wouldnt be fair to lower the rating for that

Or at least the only one which has those features and doesnt also remove prtscr in favor of a pointless alternative which does the same thing but without sysrq which i do actually need looking at you keychron

I just struggle to see why it costs so much being a 75 keyboard and just being only wired
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If this keyboard offered wireless or bluetooth compatibility i could consider it being competitively priced

It just seems it’s more so a premium for the brand name
