Sumvision Nemesis Gaming Series Sonic Wave Hybrid Music LED Keyboard

The media could not be loaded.  Kindly given to me to review this offers a low cost upgrade to the bog standard keyboard.It's a USB UK layout keyboard which is plug and play, no need to install any drivers, all the features worked with Windows 10 out of the box.Although it has media functionality (via a combination of keys rather than dedicated keys) the key selling point is that this is a backlit keyboard.The multi coloured LEDs allow a range of lighting options, from a standard back glow (which is the least distracting) to full on party modes.You cycle through the lighting modes using the function keys and for day to day use there is just a simple solid backlight. Light intensity can be changed and on some mode the light colour can be manually set as well.An interesting mode I've not seen before is a react to sound mode. The keyboard reacts to nearby sound by lighting up keys depending on the volume. Fortunately it only reacts to nearby sound to prevent general background noise triggering the light display and this means the keyboard ideally needs to be close to the speakers for the best results.When not backlit the keys are transparent, which can make them a little tricky to see if you need to look at the keys so it's best to leave the lights on, even if they're set to a very subtle glow.This is a decent step up from a basic keyboard, the LEDs, in built palm rest and anti ghosting keys give you a lot of additional features basic keyboards don't have, and it's not especially noisy in use.

The keyboard layout is a little different to the picture. #key is on top of the return key and the return key is smaller which takes a bit of getting used to. does everything it says in the description. the sound feature isn't as good as it seems. as it picks up vibrations the music would have to be very loud for you to see any effect on the key lights. LED's are not as vibrant as some other keyboards but they still work very well. feels like a decent keyboard and a very good price.

Not too great for the gaming side but it's decent. The RGB is a bonus but nowhere near as bright as advertised. All in all it's lasted for quiet a few months now with no issues, I'd recommend for a gamer on a budget but if you have the money go for something a little more pricey.

it's ok if you are playoing a normal game but playing fortnite with it makes it really really really hard to build and so ard to type cause the keyboard weaves in and out bso when you try and type you randomly hit keys. i like to slide my finger to the key next to the one im on but my skin starts to feel like it's gonna get cut. it was really hard to type this oout cause i was typeing on this keyboard. over all i prefer my old keyboard keyboard.

Bought a pair of these as Christmas presents for the kids. They love the lights, and the feel of the keyboards. The quality is good, and I expect them to last a long time, even with the hardcore gaming they will be put through.The only improvement I would like is for the keyboard to 'remember' the light setting between sessions, as they revert to default each time as I switch the PCs off at the wall every night.

I love my keyboard, it so colourful and easy to use. It just what l was looking for. It's nowhere near the price of the more expensive light up keyboards which is a bonus. I'm not a heavy gamer but it been fine for my needs. I hope this was helpful to you.

Absolutely brilliant. For the price this is a fab upgrade. My 10 year old son who is a 'gamer' (or so he says) said its amazing. Perfect.Keys feel great, and the light patterns are awesome.

Completely re-writing my review.It is a fantastic looking budget keyboard, at just over £20 at time of purchase, it was great. The led backlighting at this price looks great, with some nice modes to try out. I either use rainbow from left to right or solid red.My ONLY complain with this is that the keys wear away and look terrible over time. Within 3 months the spacebar and shift keys were wearing down, and now are VERY unsightly. Don't get your hopes up on replacement keys too, I've been waiting a while for them.Would be 5 stars if the keys were better quality!
