What we can tell you
A full-size membrane board with zoned RGB and a spill-resistance claim, sold on gaming styling rather than on switch quality. The specification we could read is thin, because the manufacturer’s own pages were not readable and this rests on a retailer listing. If the lighting is why you are looking at it, that is a reasonable reason; if you were expecting mechanical switches, this is not that.
What the specifications favour
- Zoned RGB and a spill-resistance claim at a modest price
- A full number pad, plug and play over USB
- A polling rate is published, which is unusual for a membrane board
What to check before you buy
- Rubber-dome switches under gaming presentation
- Little is published beyond a retailer listing, so several specification rows are empty
- Wired only, with no remapping software published
