 Inside the switch itself, Kailh is using a click bar design which is different to how Cherry MX achieves the classic clicking, but we'll get to how good it is a little later in the review. So speaking of the software what you're going to be using is Dragon Center and for the keyboard it has two main menus the first of which is Mystic Light and most of you will probably know that this is MSI's RGB ecosystem and so if we had more MSI RGB products they would also be listed here but we've just got the one so it's the keyboard only and it's a fairly intuitive menu nice and easy to change the effects and you've got three profiles to play with. Now on profile two we've got it set to the customize one and we can apply it and this is just essentially the per key RGB lighting that I was telling you about you can pick your colors choose which keys are then going to be applied in that color and then apply it and it's as simple as that it's a nice static pattern and then you've also got for your third profile for example you've also got multiple other ones to play with Whirlpool is quite an interesting one if that's your thing it's super RGB but yep it's it's super easy to change everything the software works well and it's fast on the lighting changing. The second section of the software is separate to Mystic Light and it comes under gaming gear which we'll show you here and so from there you can select your keyboard and then you then get a separate menu specifically to program macros into the keyboard so separate from the lighting

6mm. As you can see here, they have the same cross-shaped stem as Cherry switches and this means that aftermarket keycaps will be compatible with both types. So the housing on these switches is clear and of course this is to allow light from the surface mounted RGB LED to dissipate and shine through as much of the switch and the keycaps as possible. It's actually also got an IP56 water and dust resistance rating, but that doesn't apply to the keyboard itself so I wouldn't be going spilling your drinks on it anytime soon

 Hey folks, today we are going to be looking at the MSI Vigor GK50 Elite, which is a new RGB mechanical keyboard that's coming in around £80 here in the UK. And along with that, MSI has also sent in the WR-01 wrist rest, which retails separately for £20 and we'll be taking a look at both today. So the Vigor GK50 Elite comes in two flavours and that gives you an option of which switch you want beneath your keycaps. Now both of them are a clicky type, but you get the GK50 Elite Blue and then there's the Elite Box White Edition

MSI Vigor GK50 Elite Box White Review - Mechanical RGB, Clicky Kailh Switches

 I thought this was a nice gesture and maybe nothing more than a bit of a gimmick when I first saw them but honestly I do really like the feel of the convex keys much more than the concave keys that come with the keyboard. It really made a difference especially when gaming and it really was more comfortable and easier to press these buttons under pressure. The keys are also really clicky and pretty satisfying to use. They aren't annoyingly loud though like some of the other keyboards I've used or that my partner uses and dries me up the wall with

 Underneath all the packaging we have a keycap puller and the manual. I'm instantly impressed with how this keyboard looks, straight out of the box, the brushed metal top plate is nice to look at and it makes the whole thing feel tough and premium. The MSI Dragon logo also adds a touch of cool to this whole thing as well as the matching key which is essentially a function key. The keys are almost like a satin feel, the website says matt coated keycaps but I would say that they are definitely not matt, they're way too shiny for that in my opinion

 The keys themselves are low profile Kailh mechanical switches and they are really responsive. I guess this is due to the fact that there is less distance between the switch and the operating point making that response time a little bit quicker. The switches feel quite firm in comparison to some of the others I've used before and I found myself feeling the need to type maybe a little bit harder than usual but I quickly did get used to this and to be honest I did quite like it. You get extra control and alt keys with this keyboard and they are convex unlike the standard keys that come attached to the keyboard which are concave

 So I went to the website, downloaded the software and launched it. After a bit of fiddling around with installing the MSI SDK, we were good to go. On the first screen you will see, oddly, that you can control your display which I found a bit odd but hey why not. On the next page is Mystic Lighting which houses all of your lovely lighting options

MSI VIGOR GK50 Keyboard Review - Low-Profile Contender!

 Pros, metal plate is really nice, nice bright RGB, no grease prone keys and that is a big bonus from me, good tactile and audioball feedback, full range of media keys, control and alt convex keys, full range of media keys, software is pretty cool too, linking to games and stuff like that as well as the phillips hue and good performance in gaming. Some cons, kink friendly cord, slightly heavier resistance when pressing the buttons but soon got used to that. Nothing really stands out spec wise, visually or comfort wise other than the RGB and the freebies that you get with it. This is the definition of my conclusion, nothing to complain about but equally nothing to rave about

 Nothing really stands out spec wise, visually or comfort wise other than the RGB and the freebies that you get with it. This is the definition of my conclusion, nothing to complain about but equally nothing to rave about. There isn't much here we haven't seen before to be honest, there are keyboards that are very similar for maybe even a little bit less that I would more than likely go for on that basis. I would say that the best features include the metal plate, the RGB, the software and the freebie keys

 First impressions are good, I like the brushed metal plate on the fascia, the underneath is just a mattified plastic with the MSI logo, there are two flip out feet that have rubber pads for grip and four rubber pads along the bottom of the keyboard too. One of which is actually a gaming base that provides extra support under the spacebar and prevents slippage. The keys sat in finished plastic and have transparent font to let that RGB shine through. To be honest this is one thing I think MSI do really well, their RGB lighting is really bright and when you have the full colour spectrum rolling around it's so pretty

 Usual packaging experience here guys, the cardboard box and inside the keyboard and the manuals, nothing to shout about. You do get two spare keycaps which are convex and if you wish to have your slightly higher alt and control keys then you can use these and let's not forget that keycap puller.

MSI Vigor GK50 Elite - basic and forgettable

 In Singapore you can get one for about 130-140 dollars which is fine for a mechanical keyboard like this. Overall the MSI GK50 Elite is an amazing mechanical keyboard with great features and build quality. If you are looking for a gaming keyboard I would recommend the GK50 Elite. Prices may change in the future so I will leave some links in the description to buy it

 The font on the keycaps are also unique and they are easy to read. Next the USB cable on the keyboard is also braided and is very high quality. Next we have RGB. The Vigor GK50 Elite has perky RGB which is amazing

 The one I have here is the clicky Kailh Blue switches and as the name suggests these are clicky switches and I quite like the way they sound when typing. Here is how these switches sound. It will be fine if you like the sound these make but will be quite loud in quiet environments. Moving on, the keys have a medium actuation force of about 60 grams and can be pressed relatively easily

 It will be fine if you like the sound these make but will be quite loud in quiet environments. Moving on, the keys have a medium actuation force of about 60 grams and can be pressed relatively easily. The actuation point is a nice 2mm and the key presses down a maximum of 4mm. Overall, I had a great typing experience with this keyboard

Wirecutter

The Anne Pro 2 is the easiest-to-program 60% keyboard, so it’s the best starting point if you want an even more compact keyboard. Plus, it has wireless support.

RTINGS

If you feel that bigger isn't necessarily better, you'll want to take a peek at the Obinslab Anne Pro 2, the best compact gaming keyboard that we've tested. It's a 60% compact keyboard that takes up very little space on your desk. Its frame is plastic, but it feels very sturdy, and it has high quality, doubleshot PBT keycaps with a matte finish.

It has exceptionally low latency over a wired connection. However, you can also connect it wirelessly via Bluetooth, which is great for productivity but not something we recommend for gaming as the latency is much higher over a Bluetooth connection. The unit we purchased has tactile Gateron Brown switches that don't require much force to actuate. The pre-travel is slightly higher than other mechanical switches, which some gamers might be disappointed with. That said, it's also available in a wide variety of other switch types, including linear switches, which many gamers prefer for their responsiveness.

Unfortunately, it's not the most comfortable option as it lacks an included wrist rest, and there aren't any incline settings. That said, it's a very performant option in a tidy, compact package to leave you with more room for big mouse movements, and it's one of the best mechanical keyboards for gaming that we've tested.

The best compact mechanical keyboard we've tested is the Obinslab Anne Pro 2. Compact sizes are gaining popularity, especially among gamers who may not need as many keys and among users with smaller desk spaces. It's a compact 60% gaming keyboard that feels very well-built and has a stylish design that's likely to fit nicely into most setups.

It also has remarkably low wired latency, full RGB backlighting with individually-lit keys, and you can program macros to any of the keys using the customization software. The keyboard is available in a wide variety of switch options. We purchased our unit with Gateron Brown switches that provide good tactile feedback and excellent typing quality. You can connect it wirelessly via Bluetooth, but this is only recommended for productivity tasks and everyday browsing as it has a much higher latency when using it wirelessly.

Unfortunately, the keyboard is a little tall, and the lack of incline settings and an included wrist rest means that your wrists may get tired from using it for long periods. Also, as a 60% design, it lacks dedicated arrow keys, which might be a deal-breaker for some. Overall, this is an extremely versatile choice for gaming, productivity, or mobile use that won't take up much space on your desk.

Compact boards are having their moment in the sun, and it's easy to see why. The smaller size frees up desk space, which may be limited in a tight work-from-home setup, and, for gamers, it allows more space for dynamic, sweeping mouse movements. That said, it can sometimes be difficult to find a performant option at a budget price point. Enter, the Obinslab Anne Pro 2. 

This board also comes with your choice of Cherry, Gateron, and Kailh switches in various styles, so you can get the feeling you prefer. Our unit uses Gateron Brown switches, which provide a light typing experience and give good tactile feedback. You can connect this board with up to four devices simultaneously. This is great if you're using a multi-device work setup, and you can also use it in a wired mode for gaming since its latency is extremely low.

Unfortunately, it's a high-profile board with no incline settings or included wrist rest, meaning it can cause fatigue during a long workday or gaming session. Also, while a compact board has its benefits, it can take some time to get used to, especially since there are no arrow keys to navigate through text or pages. This board's an excellent choice if you're looking to try a compact, wireless keyboard with your gaming or office setup, and it's one of the best wireless mechanical keyboards you'll find at a budget price point.

For an option that takes up less real estate on your desk, the best keyboard for coding that we've tested is the Obinslab Anne Pro 2. It's a compact 60% keyboard that connects wirelessly via Bluetooth, so you don't have to worry about using or potentially losing a USB receiver. You can also pair it with up to four devices.

Its frame is plastic, but it feels very solid and well-built. Its keycaps are doubleshot PBT, and they have a slightly textured matte finish that's very comfortable to type on. It also has full RGB lighting with individually backlit keys if you prefer working in a low-light environment. However, it has a pinkish hue when displaying full white light, which may be a dealbreaker for some. We purchased our unit with Gateron Brown switches that provided an excellent typing quality, but this keyboard is also available in various Cherry MX, Gateron, and Kailh switches.

Unfortunately, it doesn't have any incline settings or an included wrist rest, so it isn't the most comfortable option if you're frequently coding for very long periods. It also lacks dedicated media keys, arrow keys, and a function row, but that's the trade-off for its much smaller desk footprint. Ultimately, this is an extremely customizable and well-built choice for programmers.

The Obinslab Anne Pro 2 is the best Mac mechanical keyboard that we've tested in a compact size. Its 60% form factor is great if you're looking for a mechanical keyboard to bring around with you on-the-go, or if you have a small workstation and can't fit a full-size board. It connects wirelessly with up to four devices via Bluetooth, so it's a great choice if you have a multi-device set up with an iPad or MacBook.

The Gateron Brown switches in our unit provide great tactile feedback without being noisy. The board is also available in a wide variety of switch types, like Cherry MX, Gateron, and Kailh, meaning you can get the typing feel and sound you're looking for. It comes with companion software that's fully compatible with macOS, so you can use the software to reprogram keys, assign macros, or customize the RGB backlighting.

Unfortunately, the small form factor eliminates the Numpad and arrow keys, so it's not well-suited for tasks like data entry. Also, this keyboard has a fairly high profile and doesn't come with a wrist rest, so you'll likely feel a bit of wrist fatigue after a long period of use. With that said, it's an overall high-performing choice if you're looking for a compact mechanical keyboard to use with a Mac device.

Compact-sized keyboards are having something of a moment right now. Whether you're a minimalist or you have a tiny desk, if you're interested in a compact keyboard, you should check out the Obinslab Anne Pro 2, the best compact budget mechanical keyboard we've tested. It's a 60% compact keyboard that takes up a very small footprint on your desk. It has a plastic frame, but it feels very well-built and has high quality, doubleshot PBT keycaps.

It connects wirelessly with a USB receiver or via Bluetooth, but you can also use it wired. Using it wired eliminates your need to worry about running out of battery and makes it a much more viable choice for gamers, thanks to its exceptionally low latency over a wired connection. The model we tested has tactile Gateron Brown switches that don't require too much force to actuate but have slightly higher pre-travel than linear switches, which are typically preferred by gamers for how responsive they feel. Thankfully, this keyboard is also available in a wide selection of other switch types, including linear switches.

Unfortunately, it doesn't include wrist rest, so it may not be a great choice if you need to use your keyboard for long uninterrupted stretches. Despite this, it's a performant option in a neat package that's easy to incorporate into almost any setup.

The best compact gaming keyboard under $100 that we've tested is the Obinslab Anne Pro 2. The advantage of having a small keyboard is that you get extra space to move your mouse around, like if you're playing FPS games with a low-sensitivity mouse. However, there are a few downsides because you don't have dedicated arrow keys or a function row.

It connects wirelessly, and you can pair this keyboard with up to four devices at once via Bluetooth, which is great if you have a multi-device setup, like if you game on your computer and chat with your phone or tablet. The latency is high for gaming if you're using the Bluetooth connection, so we recommend using it with a wired connection for fast-paced or competitive gaming.

Although it has full RGB backlighting with individually-lit keys, there are hints of pink when set to display full white backlighting. On the plus side, it's available in a wide variety of clicky, linear, and tactile switches, including switches made by Cherry MX, Kailh, and Gateron. The Gateron Brown switches on our unit offer excellent typing quality. Overall, it's an excellent gaming keyboard available in a compact size.

The Obinslab Anne Pro 2 is an outstanding choice for a budget programming keyboard. While it lacks the ergonomic features of the previously mentioned NuPhy Air75, it's still an incredibly popular model thanks to the wide variety of switches you can choose from, the great wireless connectivity options, and its high build quality, despite its budget price point. The keycaps are a nice, durable PBT, and extra colored ones are included for a bit of personalization.

You can connect it with up to four devices at once using Bluetooth, or you can use it in a wired mode with its included USB-A to USB-C cable, where its latency is exceptionally low, meaning you can push your lines with no delay at all. Although it lacks dedicated arrow keys, there's a unique feature in the software that allows you to use the right-side modifier keys primarily as arrow keys without having to hold &quot;Function&quot; down. If there's a notable downside, it's the battery life. Unfortunately, it only lasts around eight hours, so while it might get you through a workday, you'll have to remember to charge it before use.

The Obinslab Anne Pro 2 offers unparalleled wireless connectivity for its price point. You can pair this compact unit with up to four devices using Bluetooth, making it an excellent choice for multi-device setups or on-the-go use. Though the whole body is plastic, it still feels high quality, and it's much lighter to carry around than a metal keyboard. Plus, its compact form factor makes it easy to slip into backpacks and use in tight workspaces like airplanes or trains.

While this unit isn't hot-swappable, like the Keychron V1 and ROYAL KLUDGE RK61, it does come in a variety of switch options from various manufacturers, so you'll surely find a switch type that works for you. Plus, it includes extra keycaps of bright colors and a keycap puller so you can add a bit of personalization to your board.

The Obinslab Anne Pro 2 puts to rest the idea you need to spend a fortune for a good keyboard. This compact unit punches well above its weight for a variety of reasons. It's one of the few keyboards capable of pairing with up to four devices at once over Bluetooth. Also, when used in a wired mode with its included charging cable, it has extremely low latency that's on par with premium gaming options. And that's not even touching on its typing experience.

It feels excellent to type on with textured PBT keycaps that feel very premium on the fingertips. Though it isn't hot-swappable, it comes with a wide variety of switch options from various manufacturers like Kailh, Gateron, and Cherry, so you'll easily find the stock switch option to get the feeling and sound you want. While you might wonder where your arrow keys are, don't worry, they're still there. You can use the very simple companion software to enable a &quot;Tap&quot; feature that changes some of the underused modifier keys to act primarily as arrow keys. For compact boards, this is a pretty rare feature, as you can normally only access the arrow keys as a secondary &quot;Function&quot; layer.

If you're looking for a budget model that offers solid performance for gaming and general typing, we recommend the Obinslab Anne Pro 2. When used wired with its connection cable, this popular model has an exceptionally low latency that's on par with gaming-oriented options like the Corsair K65 RGB MINI. However, you can also pair it with up to four Bluetooth devices if you'd rather use it for work or general typing tasks, but its latency this way is much higher.

It comes in a variety of switch types from brands like Kailh, Gateron, and Cherry, so you can find an option that works for you. It also comes with a few colorful keycaps to add a bit of personal flair to it. On the note of the keycaps, this board has doubleshot PBT keycaps, which is a nice touch for a budget board. They feel great on the fingertips and have a nice texture for a good grip. Plus, while most compact boards lack arrow keys, this keyboard has a feature, so the right-side modifier keys act primarily like arrow keys when enabled.

 I wanted my new keyboard to be wireless, look great, and be compatible with Mac. I also wanted a keyboard that felt great to type on. I remember being in college in the 90s and typing on computers that had very satisfying clicky keyboards. I wanted to find a keyboard that could make typing fun again

I wanted to share my impressions of the Anne Pro 2, and I am writing this review on the Anne Pro 2 because this keyboard is truly a pleasure to type on. If you want the short version of the review you can stop reading here. If you want more information, read on.  First a little backstory of how I ended up with this keyboard

 The Anne Pro 2 seemed to check all my boxes, so I ordered one.  The keyboard arrived yesterday and here are my initial impressions. The keyboard has impressive build quality and is much heavier than expected. Even though the keyboard has a plastic frame this thing is solid! Typing on the keyboard is a joy

 Since I am now spending more time than ever at home in front of the computer I decided I wanted a new keyboard. I always had a passing interest in mechanical keyboards so I started doing research on them. I wanted my new keyboard to be wireless, look great, and be compatible with Mac. I also wanted a keyboard that felt great to type on

Great compact keyboard

 Overall the looks and hardware for the price I'd give it a 5/5 starts but there are slight issues with software as nice as it is.  The software is a little buggy, especially with audio lighting and using the board bluetooth which that is a big feature for why some of you would want this product. Odds are using the software won't go completely smooth for you but for the most part its solid. And on the Pros side the rgb configuration is very very solid and most importantly creating function layers and defining keys for this board through the software for me is why I give it the rating I do

 Personally, because of the keycaps I don't have much of a reason for rgb backlight but because the board uses it the caps are just a little apart from another to see that back light when in use. BUT, it is a great rgb board if you like that it's just not for my case but not bad by any means.
