Solid, Highly Customizable Mechanical Keyboard

I've been using the DROP CTRL as my daily driver for over a year now and I'm very satisfied with it. It's pricey for sure, but I have some very specific asks from a keyboard and this nailed all of them perfectly and I've had no quality issues to speak of with it.Probably the major reason I wanted this model is the hot-swap keycaps. It's not exactly "easy" to remove the key switches, but after you do it several times, you can get the hang of doing it with the included tool. The Halo True keyswitches I received weren't really my thing, and I suspected that when I ordered. Personally I like linear quiet keyswitches like the Cherry MX silent. I bought some Gateron silent switches of various types off Ebay and swapped out all the switches with those, using lighter keyswitches for modifiers. For me, it's perfect, and the CTRL's hot-swap sockets made this easy.The included keycaps are lovely and a great design, I really like them. The one qualm I have about them is that I keep the lights off on the upper function row because otherwise they'd reflect off my monitor, and with lights off, the stock keycaps can be quite hard to read. This is a very minor nitpick, though, and is probably true for any dark keys with shine-through keycaps.I also love that you can easily customize the keyboard layout, using QMK to do this was fairly easy. I'm a developer so I even coded some specific tweaks I wanted. For example, I have the keyboard start up with a mid-brightness warm-white glow on all keys except the top row and spacebar (to avoid seeing the light from the edges reflecting off my screen). I also customized the Fn layer keys quite a lot and made Caps Lock an Fn key. I turned the "Ins" key into a Media Play/Pause key.I digress but the point is that if you want this sort of extreme customization, you've got it with the CTRL and I'd never buy another keyboard that doesn't have this sort of flexibility because now I'm hooked on my obscure, personalized keyboard layout.

Solid all-arounder if not the best in the wired keyboard world

2 usb C ports, RGB, QMK and hot swap sockets, stock highend PBT keycaps, there's literally nothing else to ask for at this price point (maybe some lubing on the stabilizers) -- if only it comes with the actual keyboard loolseriously Amazon you really need to make sure people return the same stuff the buy lol

Teclado excelente

Es el mejor teclado que he tenido y utilizado, describo un poco sus pros y contras:PROS:-Teclado Mecánico-Interruptores (switch) intercambiables en caliente (no requiere soldadura)-Cable USB-C removible y con dos puertos de conexión.-Iluminación RGB con diferentes patrones programados en el mismo teclado.-Se puede personalizar el RGB, aunque no es nada sencillo (contra también)-Se pueden remapear las teclas en su totalidad (contra también requiere crear un archivo de firmware)-Frame / Housing / Carcasa: 100% metálica.-Incluye las herramientas para intercambiar los switch y las teclas (keycaps)CONTRAS (realmente no las consideraría como tal, pero van):-No es inalámbrico o Bluetooth (si es lo que buscas), por mi, mejor ya que no requerirá nunca cambiar la bateria.-El patrón RGB no es personalizable de manera sencilla, solo los patrones que incluye.-Personalizar las teclas requiere también creación de un nuevo firmware.-Para personalizar patrones de color se requiere entrar al sitio web del teclado y crear un archivo .bin del firmware para después instalarlo al teclado (flashearlo).Los contras, la verdad son a menos que busques algo "facil" a la hora de mapear teclas o RGB, en mi caso me encanta como es.

qualité de construction incroyable, touche incroyable

J'ai eu et essayé bcp de clavier de ''gamer''. Corsair K70-k95, Razer Huntsman TE, Hyper X Alloy, Drevo Blademaster TE, Durgod Taurus K320 TKL et probablement d'autre que j'oublie!! Cette semaine j'ai trouvé ce clavier sur l'amazon warehouse avec un bon rabais et je me suis dit: go je l'essaie et si je n'aime pas on le retourne. Oh que non, il reste ici et si on me le vole j'en achèterai un autre :P. Il n'y a pas de programme pour facilement changer les milliers d'options disponible mais tout se fait assez facilement sur le site de drop pour ensuite l'envoyer dans le clavier.
