Pros & Cons
Pros
I heavily use this for office work and am a heavy typer. I just enjoy that seamless slim profile that gives minimal effort lifting the hand while typing. It is much lower than the regular keyboard which your wrist can rest on the desk naturally.
Small indents on the f and j keys are more noticable. This is nice because i was always mis-striking keys on the k1. The only downside is that the keycaps are fingerprint magnet.
Overall, it's a decent keyboard if you can overlook the cons. It's not a dealbreaker, but just keep that in mind. One gripe is the lack of a touch screen.
Cons
Only the top half of the keycaps are backlit. The actuation point is very early, so accidentally grazing keys will leave you with a ton of typos. The battery barely last 2 days even with backlit off.

The not-so-good:- the *unalterable* light display profiles programmed into this thing.
Price
Glad i did, at half the price this is a vastly superior keyboard.
Yes, the keycaps can be replaced -- at considerable expense.
I would easily recommend this, and if this isn't your cup of tea, go check out a numphy air 75 for $130 usd.
But, you get what you paid for and the backlight features are really good.
Packaging/appearance
But the box was not sealed as sold by the company.
Competitiveness
This keyboard is more than 50% cheaper than the comparable logitech and just as well made.
I bought this keyboard on prime day, at ~$70 is hard to beat given there is no competitors at this price (nuphy air 75 cost ~$1... Read More
At $70, as a low profile hot swappable mech keyboard, it has no competitors.
It would be much better use combo key to enable backlight, almost all other brands are doing that.
