Great keyboard but...
This is a great keyboard. Feels sturdy and aesthetically very nice, Now for the "but"... The tools that it comes with for removing the keycaps are crap. The black one does not fit between the key and the rim of the ikey board. The tool is too thick. For me it was not a big deal because I like how the keyboard looks straight out of the box but for some that want to change the keys with the ones provided, you are gonna have to buy a keycap remover.

The Looks, the feeling, the quality - All are MUCH more then what it costs !!!
Not many compact mechanical keyboard that include the NUM pad so that was my first draw.- The keyboard has some heft to it, to exaggerated, but solid feeling and some flimsy plastic base.- The looks, for me are unique and stand out, without being overly tacky (looking at you Hello Kitty keyboards).- It is vey compact for the number of keys you get with the draw back that keys feel a bit cramped, but it's a matter of getting used to the layout and a compromise for the compact design which a i am willing to make.- Typing feels really nice and responsive with no key rattling.- The backlight is very bright and highly customizable.- Quality Gateron optical mechanical switches (and not some non-brand ones)- The key support (like on the spacebar for example) comes pre-lubed! in a ~50$ keyboard!!!- Comes with a quality braded USB C cable that even has a noise filter clipped on to it (to reduce electro-magnetic interference). Again, in a ~50$ keyboard!!! As well as with a key and switch remover, and some extra keycaps in pink and gray.Super happy with the look, the feel, the quality - and all for and very affordable price!* in the picture you can see I laser-etched Hebrew lettering on the keys - no issues.

Lots of potential for mods but can only go so high.
I really like this board. It is very easy to disassemble and separate plate from PCB and already has foam packed in the bottom of the board. Optical red switches got a little better with lube and with some additional packing and foam between the plate and PCB, you can achieve somewhat of a marbling sound. The switches also are loose in their sockets so I added some tape to make the caliber small for less wiggle room. This helps alot with the rattle. The keyboard is incredibly scratchy sounding out of the box so definitely think about doing some mods. Overall, very satisfied with keyboard so far. We'll see how long it lasts.

This Really Does It All
The media could not be loaded. I can't emphasize enough how fun these keyboard is. It sounds great, it looks great, and it's comfortable and easy to set up. I've been bragging about it to everyone! If you're looking for a starter keyboard to mod switches and key caps, you can't get better than this for the price.If you're trying to figure out how to play with the default settings, it's the FN and +/- keys and you can cycle through :) The directions that come in the box are pretty straight forward.

Its ok. Average. Too expensive to be flaky. Sometimes it doesnt hit the keys.
Its flaky. Sometimes it doesnt hit the keys you want but the outer keys are sensitive. Like spacebar.

Keys sometimes don't press when pressed
Great keyboard except sometimes an unknown issue causes keys to not press even after a driver reinstall and uninstall keyboards from device manager

Well-priced and well-made optical keyboard
The Skyloong SK96 wired optical keyboard was pretty good straight out of the box, but there are a couple things that will make it a bit better. I wanted to attempt to make it more similar to the Skyloong Lite Gasket SK96, which is amazing straight from the box. The big plus to this particular version over the Lite Gasket version is the optical switches, which means no bent pins or metal parts to deal with in your switches; just the plastic shell and the spring.To start off, this keyboard is well-built. It feels solid. It comes with thick, shine-through PBT keycaps. There are extra keycaps, providing the ability to adjust the look a little bit without having to purchase anything extra. The included cable is braided and looks nice. Size-wise, this keyboard has about the same footprint as a TKL keyboard.The circuit board and the plate are screwed together, which gives them a nice, solid feel without any wiggling of the circuit board beneath the plate. The two can be separated from each other while working on modifications, which this board doesn’t necessarily need. There is some foam padding on the circuit board beneath where the space bar goes. There is some foam on the inside of the board. The USB-C port is mounted directly on the board, so there are no wires inside to fiddle with or have in the way while doing mods.In regards to mods, I lubricated the switches, did the bandage mod on the stabilizers, added shelf grip foam over the existing foam inside, added rows of rubber window seal to the circuit board to fit between the board and the plate to help dampen sound, and added one o-ring per keycap. Was it necessary? Not really, but it did quiet the board, which is what I like. As I said, this board is perfectly good straight from the box. I think if Skyloong added the Lite Gasket to this keyboard, it would truly be a homerun.In short, this is an excellent option whether you use it for work, gaming, or both. The solid build and quality components are well worth it for the price.
