Low-Profile RGB Gaming Keyboard AW510K, AlienFx Per Key RGB LED Color Backlighting, Media CONTROLS & USB Passthrough, Cherry MX Low Profile Red Switches

Ok.. Finally. The keys feel so solid and amazing to me. They're right where my fingers think they're going to be.. which is always nice. I like that the colors are ..sorta muted.. And, the fact that when adjusting them the brightness starts about halfway up rather than at full tilt. So, the keyboard is very easy to use and fulfilling to deal with since everything is quietly powerful feeling. Now, truth be told.. the software feels kinda janky but after some fiddlin' with it.. it's ok. And, I don't have to run it or have it auto-start so that's a plus. Hoping this will be a long term relationship since I am pretty much fed up trying different keyboards since my k740 started being too far over the hill to continue using. Alright.. *Cheers to (of all things) an Alienware keyboard. (Never would've guessed I'd end up here again) Surprise.!

The low-profile cherry switches and design make this keyboard a blast to use! It is so comfortable! It is not as noisy, and I can use it for 16 hours daily with no discomfort. Durability is good. I have been using one for many years now. The cable is also very durable. The USB passthrough & volume bar are neat, but I do not have a use for them. Floating keycap design makes it an easy keyboard to clean. It is also cheaper than other keyboards using the same key switches. I love this thing.

This keyboard is excellent. One of the nicest I’ve ever used. Great solid, tactile feel, nice and quiet for a mechanical. Lighting is nice. Very highly recommend

I used to use the Logitech G815 and that was my main keyboard for 2 years. I experimented around with some ducky keyboards but I ended up hating them all. This keyboard however, exceeds my expectations. I was already used to the low profile switches and the super sensitive travel so everything was already easy for me. The thing that sets the AW510k from the Logitech is the switches. Logitech uses their own switches while AW uses Cherry Reds and I think they are superior in terms for feel and sound in my opinion. This keyboard is a lot more compact and also doesn't have any redundant features while still remaining full sized. The build quality is super clean and I wasn't expecting much from the RGB but it blew me away as well. The only thing that I hate on this board is the volume wheel on the top right, when you roll it, it makes this weird clicking sound and has feedback to it while the Logitech's was very smooth but I bet I would just get used to it anyways. Overall this is going to be my go-to keyboard for the next couple of years and if they ever release a new model that has similar features, I'd probably upgrade.

I've had no issues with it. It does what it needs to do. Now I think I want a wireless one now lol

This keyboard replaced a Razer that I had spilled coffee and ruined. I like the quieter mechanical keys and the backlighting has a ton of options.

The Alienware 510K is a gorgeous low-profile, fast-actuating rgb keyboard. If that's what you're looking for, than I'd say it's a safe bet you'll almost surely be happy with. It's only real drawbacks are basically the ones you'd expect from Alienware, software and price. Pros: Beautiful RGB Excellent feel and speedy linear keys Quiet yet responsive Great media controls USB passthrough works well Quality hardware. The keys feel great, the cable is thick and durable, well packaged, and just holding this keyboard in your hands feels solid Cons: Price. Alienware Software. You have to use the latest Alienware Command Center. Now, if you are already using this for something else, the desktop, a mouse or what not, then this is a moot point mostly. But installing another, somewhat clunky software to customize the RGB and Macros is undesirable and it could benefit from from work. RGB profiles are still just a bit limited. The best example I can think of is that the Rainbow wave that makes this keyboard so beautiful is great, but for any serious long term use would want it to be slowed down, at the least, and right now the speed only goes so moderately low. So the software is a bit bulky, needs a little work, is sometimes clunky to customize manually and switch between profiles. But, it all seems to work well so far, and firmware updating was just an easy button press. Update: After a month of using this keyboard, I'd say the quality still impresses me, and to be fair, it's still cheaper than Logitech's comparable keyboard. The rubber feet on the back risers works great. What's not nice is that they've updated the Alienware Command Center, and still, unless you're using it for other things too, it can barely get the job done apart from choosing backlighting presets. Compared to almost every other keyboard, it majorly lacks preset color themes, ability to create your own themes, adjust speed. Software updates came and went and this hasn't changed, which leaves me to assume Alienware has washed their hands of it already. I'm going to downgrade this to a 4 star for now, purely for the software, and hopefully they'll fix this.

As exactly as advertised. Very Premium keyboard.

First keyboard I received had a manufacturing defect on the enter key, making it feel like it was getting hitched on something when I pressed it. It happens, exchanged it for a new one which works perfect. Key presses are nice, doesn't require a lot of pressure which makes them quite sensitive. Typing takes a big to get used coming from a membrane, and the keys are angled differently than my old keyboard, but I got a handle on it within a day. Semi-quiet sound when typing which makes a nice, soft tap noise if you press all the way down. I was worried that since I'm sound sensitive that it would bother me, but it's been fine and I've grown to like the sound a lot. (It got stuck in my head when I was sleeping the other night, but it was enjoyable.) It has a mute key and a volume scroller on the top right, which is what I wanted as my old keyboard had it. The lighting is great, and I love that you can save profiles directly to the keyboard itself and cycle through them with the FN + F3 key, and change brightness with FN + F5/F6. I find myself sometimes watching my fingers instead of the monitor as I type to watch the lights dance across the keys as I currently have the raindrop effect. The thick cord is a touch annoying as it uses 2 usbs - one for keyboard, one for passthrough - making it quite thick, but otherwise it's a nice braided cord. If I don't use the passthrough I might just hack off the USB end in the future. For now they're both plugged in so the one doesn't hang freely. My only gripe isn't with the keyboard, it's with the program itself for lighting. It works well enough, but it has its issues and can be finicky. For example, I have the morph when the keyboard is idling, switching between blue and purple, but when I type, it does have the pink raindrop effect I selected, but the main background where the pink doesn't hit turns rainbow instead of keeping the original effect I chose, or it'll go with the original Alienware blue. It's an odd quirk that I managed to get around the first time, but now I need to play with the software again to figure out how to fix it. Annoying, but not a deal breaker since they could easily fix the software. I'm glad I went with this keyboard, as my old Logitech gaming keyboard got stiff after 8+ years of service and made typing completely horrible. I did research, and while I loved their low-profile keyboard (tested it in store), I did not want to fork out $250+ for a keyboard. After more research into RBG low-profile keyboards I decided on this one, and I'm not disappointed in the least. $130 well spent, and hopefully it'll service me for several years. I can't vouch for it for gaming yet as I have a neck injury that makes it impossible to game with a mouse for long periods of time (pinched nerve leading down to right hand), but I imagine it'll work nicely. TL;DR: Keyboard is solid, good typing experience, lighting is gorgeous. Software okay but has issues.

good good very nice
