DownsidesĪpart from the hefty price, the only issue we have with this keypad is the aforementioned fixed backlight color i.e., gold. It should also be noted that, due to the simple and slim design, this keypad is very easy to transport. Usually, we’d expect either RGB or, at the very least, several color options to help the keypad fit in aesthetically with different setups. There is also a golden backlight, which is bright and looks good but is a bit limiting. Visually, it looks like your regular no-frills keyboard – well, a half of a no-frills keyboard. Moreover, it comes in several flavors when it comes to the switches: Cherry MX Black, Blue, Red, and Brown, so there’s something for everyone’s taste. FeaturesĪs mentioned above, all the 43 keys found in this keypad are fully programmable, and the keypad itself comes with onboard memory for storing profiles, which is definitely convenient if you plan on using the keypad on more than one computer. This keypad also uses mechanical switches, has an LED backlight, and best of all – it is fully programmable. The next product that comes from Koolerton is a simple and straightforward solution, boasting a simple and clean exterior design with none of the bombasts of the Excalibur. Other than that, it also only comes with blue switches, with some users may find a tad too loud. More importantly, it is fairly pricey, especially for a product coming from a lesser-known brand and with no real RGB lighting. First, it’s on the hefty side, so it may be a bit too big for comfort when it comes to people with smaller hands. Now, there are two main drawbacks to this product. The keypad is fairly comfortable to use, though the detachable wrist rest ends up being somewhat superficial since the sheer size of the keypad will require you to move your hand around a lot. Note that the manufacturer displays the Excalibur as having RGB lighting, but it is simply not the case. It is very detailed and comes with some over-the-top fonts, plus there’s an LED backlight with a total of five presets. When it comes to the design, this keypad definitely looks a bit too gaudy for its own good. The keys are also mechanical, using the clicky blue switches. FeaturesĪs you can see, the sheer number of keys included is what makes this keypad a viable substitute for a full-fledged keyboard when it comes to gaming, while the function keys give it some merit even for desktop use. This keypad is bigger and combines a portion of the traditional QWERTY layout with an array of function keys and programmable macro keys, all the while boasting a detail-heavy design and an LED backlight. Up next, we have the Excalibur gaming keypad made by Aula.
