Pros & Cons
Pros
They've got a slight bump but not too much, they aren't super loud. With minimal modifications as above, it becomes great! This numpad is pretty decent for the price. It is mechanical so you get a pretty good response and feel to it.
Swapping in gateron browns, oem pudding keycaps, and a different usb-c cable was an absolute breeze.
It's super easy to plug and play and toggle the colors without any downloads. I love being able to have the number pad to make number spreadsheets and calculate finances on excel a whole lot easier.
Only downside is that i can't sync the numpad rgb with my keyboard rgb. This one is a simple plug and play without needing to install the driver.
Only small caveat is that i think i'd prefer a cherry profile, not the very flat xda this numpad has. The keys are very satisfying and backlighting is awesome! The default led is okay and not too bright throughout the keyboard.
Highlights
Quality
The quality is great and it works perfectly.
I am by no means a keyboard expert, but i am impressed with the build quality and performance of this numpad.
If there are any significant faults with the feel of the pad right now, it’s the incline of the entire board (which cannot be adjusted).
Price
The price is amazing and matches a lot of different keyboards, include the really high end ones.
Packaging/appearance
I've swapped out the keycaps to match my build and downloaded the software that was linked in one of the q&a answers.
I also love that the keycap markings are clean, with no special functions marked.
Competitiveness
I run a tkl keyboard and have this on the left side.
The numpad is compatible with gateron optical switches.
Led colorway does not exactly match the th80 keyboard.
After placement of my own lubed and filmed switches and holey modding the stabs, the board manages to sound like a much more expensive one.

There’s also a power indicator between the topleft group of keys that cannot be switched off or adjusted as far as i can tell

No need to keep the software open all the time like some bigger name hardware brands’ boards

However the software for the gk21s is absolutely atrocious compared to what’s used for the th21 and that really says a lot because the th21 software is far from perfect

So i have to recommend the th21 instead unless you really need a wireless pad
