The Goldie Locks Keyboard
I had a basic Dell usb multimedia keyboard with two usb passthru ports, but I didn’t like the typing experience on the low profile keys.What I did want was a full size keyboard with larger (perhaps mechanical) keys, a usb connected, backlit, with a usb passthru port(s) to connect the receiver for my mouse. I didn’t want a bluetooth keyboard because I run two computers through my monitor’s built in KVM switch and the connection would be undependable or delayed. As a casual gamer, I was also interested in what features might be helpful there.While shopping, I quickly realized that the keyboards that met my criteria were mostly all $100-$250 gaming keyboards and I wasn’t going to spend that. Besides, most of them were on the bleeding edge with buggy features or required talking to the cloud to use, ugh. None of them seemed like a good value to me, even Logitech of which I am a general fan.By chance, I ran across this Lenovo Legion K500. I must tell you that I am a former IBM product designer and have a soft spot for the ex-IBM brand. And we will never forget those perfect IBM keyboards of old. So the potential and aesthetics of this product immediately caught my eye – clean, high tech, understated elegance with superior ergonomics. It was usb connected and offered backlighting (even in custom colors). It also included multimedia keys. But no usb port – oh well. Last but not least, it was a full sized keyboard with mechanical keys that would deliver the superior typing experience. All at about $65. So I gave up a usb passthru port to save $100+.I have to tell you, it has fully met and exceeded expectations., even the software makes sense and works great. Although it’s all plastic, it’s a quality build that looks and feels much more expensive. It’s a beautiful addition to my desktop. I’ve fallen in love with it. It’s a tremendous value.Pros and ConsPro -Tasteful, understated designVery ergonomicGood typing feel & quietPlastic, but heavy, very solid buildLots of grip on the deskWorks style wise in a business environmentSoftware is very easy and good for what it doesSoftware works on both Windows 7/10Remembers customization settings locallyBacklit keys with 2 levels of brightness and offWorks great in a dark environmentDedicated multimedia keysGame mode can disable certain keysFlat or tiltComes with an easy on/easy off palmrestNice quality braided cableNumlock/Capslock indicatorsCon -No USB or headset passthruOnly one color at a time/one color per profileCustom macros are a little clumsyVery slightly lite on the key pressure, but okayMultimedia keys don’t light upDoesn’t light up numbers on top, just symbolsPoor instructions in the boxNo mention of software or where to get it(Google – Legion Accessory Central)Color gimmicks are a useless distraction

Pretty great keyboard, but for gamers? Really?
I almost could not believe I found a corded keyboard that is full size and has mechanical keys that I actually like. The Microsoft curve that I loved for over 20 years is no longer made and I’m having to get used to something else, but I don’t want a keyboard that they forgot to put the case on and everything I’ve tried up to this point is just a tiny bit smaller than full size. (Just enough to squish the keys closer together so you can’t help but fat finger everything.) This keyboard being full sized is soooo much better. I like the backlighting and the ease of changing the color of the backlighting. I also like the feel of the keys and the fact that you can actually feel the key press. It is a lot noisier than most other keyboards I’ve used, but I think that is because it is mechanical rather than membrane.The only thing I can criticize about this keyboard is that it can’t take even the slightest bit of abuse. I can be rather heavy fingered sometimes and apparently the feet stands are very week. Not only that, but Lenovo doesn’t sell replacements. Also when the keyboard takes a fist all the keys go flying. When I used to game and really abuse my keyboards the Microsoft keyboard could take a serious pounding. I got so mad at one that I decided to break it and get a new one. Didn’t break! Still kept working. This keyboard…I’m afraid if I really pounded on this one it would break in half. For sure every key would fly off.

Amazing keyboard for the price.
I got this keyboard on a Black Friday deal and it was only $50. After spending some time with it I would easily recommend it even at full price. Full customization. Incredibly smooth and quiet switches (hot-swappable if you like clicky). The keys themselves feel high quality. Literally no deck flex. Also comes with key and switch pulling tool.

Most Excellent Keyboard
I absolutely love this Lenovo Legion K310 keyboard. I bought it for work (not gaming) because I love color LED lights on my tech. It’s very quiet and very comfortable. Some have complained that it doesn’t sit at a proper angle with the extended feet, but it’s perfect for me. You can change the 5 lighting effects with FNC+F5, but I downloaded the Legion Accessory Central Software to add a little bit of customization with the ability to change the color of the light patterns. I would highly recommend this keyboard.

Very responsive without the clickety clack of other mechanical keyboards.
Bought this keyboard remanufactured. Have had zero problems. I like the way the keys feel and respond. It doesn’t clack like other mechanical keyboards, so it is nice and quiet. The software it comes with makes it easy to customize your colors, make macros and disable certain keys or key combos. It is a full size keyboard but is still smaller than my last keyboard by a long ways. All in all I would recommend this keyboard.

I Like the RGB Colors and Quiet Key Presses
I bought this because I like RGB colors and wanted quiet key presses. It succeeds well in both. I’m very pleased with this keyboard.

Best gaming mouse. It is very light weight and the RGB feels very good. The extra buttons make gaming more easier and there is no problem in it. It has been a year and half and it is working properly. The scrolling speed is also very good and there is no glitch in it.
