Review: Perfect keyboard for dark settings - As a Keyboard snob and a very hard keyboard user, I really like this keyboard and this company overall. It has a nice break for each key and while the typing is not whisper quiet, it is much less than a cherry red mechanical. I can touch type easily and quickly as everything is where it should be. I also have a older Apex 5 keyboard with the Cherry Brown keys I believe - great keyboard as well, but noisy. I think this Apex 3 is superior in feel and typeability. I have never used the wrist rest before on any keyboards due to my very large hands, but this time I gave it a go, and it really improved the overall feel through my wrists. I am now a believer in the hard smooth angled wrist rests One thing I really like about this keyboard is that you can get the white LEDs pretty bright so that I can program without overhead lighting and never not see the keys - it is bright enough and it looks legit while being bright. I am too old for the RGB effects, just give me bright white keys! On my Apex 5, I wore the keys to a high shine and it still hasn't missed a beat. Steel series knows how to put out a extremely useable, high quality product every time. I have had virtually all the big names keyboards and they all have their charms, but for reliability and quality, none has surpassed this manufacturer in my experience, although some have equaled it. From a dollars and cents standpoint - this is a excellent value!
Review: A lot for a little - Well its an amazing value for a quality Steelseies TKL Keyboard. Ive become very fond of it the more I use it. The keyboard is very well made. All of my keystroke activate precisely. No mistakes for missed or gently touched keys. This is one to keep in your arsenal. If you look at the prices for other SteelSeries gaming devices, there is a huge swing. I mean this amazingly good keyboard for around $30 to their others at $200. Im sure the technology is higher for their pro gaming products, you can feel and see some differences. I just dont have the coin to buy those higher priced devices! Im happy to own my steelseries TKL keyboard! The LEDs are beautiful and bright. They are highly customizable but Im happy with the rainbow scrolling. I have a steelseries I purchased. Its a win-win!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: States "whisper quiet switches", does it have membrane style switches? Need something more quiet than red switches, which to me are pretty loud.**
A: I actually have this keyboard. They are not membrane. The alphabet keys are the special adjustable keys. The number pad, arrow keys, etc.. are regular, non adjustable, reds. I definitely would not call them whisper quiet. It is definitely louder then that of a laptop keyboard (although, I guess it depends on laptop brand). With that said, I also would not call them loud either. But, anyone in the room with you, will hear you typing. With the adjustable keys, you can, in theory, adjust them so that they are extremely sensitive. Then, lightly tap the key in order to get it to actuate. This would make them whisper quiet. Although, I imagine, would also make it difficult to type.

**Q: Howndoni change the color to solid green?**
A: Download the steelseries engine from this website, https://steelseries.com/engine
The steelseries engine allows you to customize the color of the keyboard

**Q: Do the lights turn off when you put your computer to sleep?**
A: Yes, but if the PC is asleep and you press a key the lights will activate again.

**Q: Puedo usarlo en ps4?**
A: Si

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great entry mechanical keyboard with solid feel and comfort
*by I***R on December 8, 2025*

I bought this for my 14-year-old, and it’s been a great keyboard for both gaming and schoolwork. The hybrid switches feel clicky and responsive without being overly loud, and the RGB is bright and customizable enough for their setup. The included wrist rest adds real comfort and doesn’t slide around. No issues with software or macros so far. It’s a well-rounded keyboard that feels more premium than its price suggests.
