Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Compact 98 Key， Red Switches ， Custom Made chip Computer Keyboard -USB Connection Multi-Color Rainbow programmable RGB with Red Switches,for Windows PC Gamers

I have a desk with a keyboard drawer that's not big enough for a full size keyboard and a mouse pad together. I'd been happy enough with compact keyboards that sacrificed the number pad, but as an avid roguelike player it was an ongoing annoyance whenever I played something like ToME and had to use the mouse to make up for my lack of diagonals without a number pad. I also really prefer typing on mechanical boards, so I set out to find a mechanical board that would fit the tight space I had but that still managed to provide me with a numpad, and I soon found this keyboard.First the good stuff. At only ~14.75 inches and with switches that give me decent feedback without being so loud as to drive my family crazy, this keyboard meets my basic requirements for work purposes. I can type quickly and accurately. There are a range of backlighting options, from rainbow waves to specified colors to a subdued rainbow lighting for a brief instant that fades out on each key as you hit them. I didn't notice any ghosting or other issues gaming either.Now for the not so good stuff. The compromises that come with this small package are real. It has a weird layout, there's no way around it. Not only does it not have keys marked "del", "home", "pg up", "pg down" or "end" anywhere to be found, but there is also a small space between the main keyboard section and the numpad section, which is pretty normal except that the left arrow, up and down arrow keys are on the left side of the divide, and the right arrow is on the numpad side of the split. In practice it took me almost no time to switch to using the period key on the numpad when I needed the "del" key (home is 7, end is 1, pg up is 9 and pg dn is 3), and the arrows never felt strange in use at all. Similarly, the keyboard does support macro recordings on the four keys above the numpad, but I found the playback to be too slow to be useful and the directions lacking (tip: use fn+backspace to reset the keyboard to default, not fn+del as listed in the little instruction booklet).All in all, while it does make some sacrifices I can happily recommend it to anyone that needs a small board that still retains the numpad.

All in all it is a great keyboard. I use this to game and while getting used to the compressed key placements took some time, this is still a fully functioning, multi light setting, reliable keyboard that I would totally purchase again and recommend. Read the instructions for light settings with care.Purchased in January of 2020
