Alienware Low-Profile RGB Gaming Keyboard AW510K, AlienFx Per Key RGB LED Color Backlighting, Media CONTROLS & USB Passthrough, Cherry MX Low Profile Red Switches

Top notch
This keyboard is excellent. One of the nicest I’ve ever used. Great solid, tactile feel, nice and quiet for a mechanical. Lighting is nice.Very highly recommend

Awesome! Quiet, efficient, excellent responsiveness and volume control.
This keyboard is amazing! Love it to death. Prior to this purchase I had a rather nice and expensive Razer mechanical keyboard. Don’t get me wrong – Razer makes AWESOME products and all that but for my tastes A MECHANICAL KEYBOARD (NOT THIS KEYBOARD) IS TOO LOUD. FAR TOO LOUD.I type extremely fast and the clack clack clack of a mechanical keyboard sounds like tossing a ball bearing into a paper shredding. Don’t ask me how I know. THIS keyboard has a shorter key stroke, quietly operating key engagement, on-keyboard volume control with mute, well lit keys and the standard layout that I, as a gamer, have come to expect. BUY THIS KEYBOARD NOW!!!! OMG I love this thing and I’m not being paid or endorsed by anyone to leave this review. Seriously, I can type at 100+ wpm and still actually hear the video that I’m watching. LOVE IT. Soooo smooth and looks amazing to boot. The only downside to it is that it does not come with a padded wrist rest which I come to expect with a keyboard of this price but I already have one and I’m using it now. This does not take away from the rating of the keyboard itself, nor do I feel that it detracts from the value of this keyboard for the money. If you do not possess very good control of your typing (mainly in the form of intentional key strokes) then you will likely find this keyboard too sensitive. But I absolutely ADORE THIS KEYBOARD!!!

Great Keyboard
This keyboard is amazing. From the feels, to the functionality, I have no complaints. The RGB effects on it look flush and smoother than a lot of keyboards i’ve seen. 5/5 from me.

Sensual Typing Experience
So far I’m very happy with this keyboard. I first purchased another, compact rgb keyboard but I didn’t realize how heavily I rely on the number pad. Doh!I’m not a gamer but I bought an Alienware laptop for graphic work. This keyboard integrates seamlessly with the pre-installed command center so that was not an issue for me.The keyboard is SO much quieter than the other mechanical keyboard. It has such a soft, pleasant, tactile stroke, I almost wish for more work. I’m hoping for a type heavy project soon!On my desk, it sits behind my Wacom and the one doesn’t interfere with the other (but then I’ve been doing this for so many years, I may be subconsciously adjusting my hands).My work area is pretty dark so I’m grateful for the rgb lighting. It was easy to program- and I only change the color of the number keys from everything else.BIG CON: it has two (2) usb plugs!! It’s the only reason this is 4 stars instead of 5. Fortunately, I’ve just bought a good dock that supports 3 USB ports. The alienware m15 has 3 USB ports (I think), but I like my station to be portable without too much plugging and unplugging. Since I leave the keyboard (and big Wacom and big external monitor) at home, the docker is a saving grace.EDIT: changing to 5 stars. I didn’t realize there is an additional USB port on the keyboard and that is the reason for the additional plug. Love this!And I like Alienware. I’ve been using dell products for 15 years and I’m happy I discovered this in their lineup.

I use this keyboard for heavy gaming and it has a good response and very fun to play with . Worth every penny. Quality is superb, only downfall for me is that it comes with only USB type A connection there should have been option to choose between type C and A since i used this keyboard in my laptop which has only one Type A port

First keyboard I received had a manufacturing defect on the enter key, making it feel like it was getting hitched on something when I pressed it. It happens, exchanged it for a new one which works perfect.Key presses are nice, doesn’t require a lot of pressure which makes them quite sensitive. Typing takes a big to get used coming from a membrane, and the keys are angled differently than my old keyboard, but I got a handle on it within a day.Semi-quiet sound when typing which makes a nice, soft tap noise if you press all the way down. I was worried that since I’m sound sensitive that it would bother me, but it’s been fine and I’ve grown to like the sound a lot. (It got stuck in my head when I was sleeping the other night, but it was enjoyable.) It has a mute key and a volume scroller on the top right, which is what I wanted as my old keyboard had it.The lighting is great, and I love that you can save profiles directly to the keyboard itself and cycle through them with the FN + F3 key, and change brightness with FN + F5/F6. I find myself sometimes watching my fingers instead of the monitor as I type to watch the lights dance across the keys as I currently have the raindrop effect.The thick cord is a touch annoying as it uses 2 usbs – one for keyboard, one for passthrough – making it quite thick, but otherwise it’s a nice braided cord. If I don’t use the passthrough I might just hack off the USB end in the future. For now they’re both plugged in so the one doesn’t hang freely.My only gripe isn’t with the keyboard, it’s with the program itself for lighting. It works well enough, but it has its issues and can be finicky. For example, I have the morph when the keyboard is idling, switching between blue and purple, but when I type, it does have the pink raindrop effect I selected, but the main background where the pink doesn’t hit turns rainbow instead of keeping the original effect I chose, or it’ll go with the original Alienware blue. It’s an odd quirk that I managed to get around the first time, but now I need to play with the software again to figure out how to fix it. Annoying, but not a deal breaker since they could easily fix the software.I’m glad I went with this keyboard, as my old Logitech gaming keyboard got stiff after 8+ years of service and made typing completely horrible. I did research, and while I loved their low-profile keyboard (tested it in store), I did not want to fork out $250+ for a keyboard. After more research into RBG low-profile keyboards I decided on this one, and I’m not disappointed in the least. $130 well spent, and hopefully it’ll service me for several years.I can’t vouch for it for gaming yet as I have a neck injury that makes it impossible to game with a mouse for long periods of time (pinched nerve leading down to right hand), but I imagine it’ll work nicely.TL;DR: Keyboard is solid, good typing experience, lighting is gorgeous. Software okay but has issues.
