I'll leave my customary complaint about price here, but I'll add kudos for the USB passthrough.
I'm not sure it was a smart move offering Silver instead of Brown.

I was kinda hoping for a KB with software that changes the lighting and some settings depending on the loaded game like the Corsair models do.
The ABS keycaps are rather lowish quality for the price tag and considering how ADATA wants to be better than Kingston, they certainly could have used the PBT keycaps.
Or they could have been really smart about it and add some O-rings in the packing, for the end user that wants to silence a bit the KB. I mean come on, how much can O-rings cost?

Now I do like the volume wheel and button, it is very stylish and if it works consistently it is a selling point because it is quite useful to change the volume.
