Large easy to use layout for those gifted/cursed with gorilla mitts
Easy to use lighting that relies ONLY on internal software

The Snake mode is a simple but effective time sink

ABS key caps with UV coating

The editors didn't like
I’d have liked to have had full RGB
I’m not a fan of what I’ve called ‘Password Theft’ mode only because not everyone focuses on password safety
There is a lot to like about this design in the QuickFire XTi. We love the fact that this solution is driver-less, requiring you only to learn to finesse the keyboard to do as you wish rather than clicking away in software. Outside of being a solid keybo...
Abstract: Many people swear by mechanical keyboards, and that's due to their individual key switches that work independently from each other. This makes them more responsive, feel less mushy, and some would argue more accurate to type/game on.Not all switches are m...

Sleek, understated design, Solid construction, Attractive red/blue lighting, Available in Cherry MX Red, Blue and Brown switches, 4 onboard profiles, Software free w/ macro recording, You can play snake!!

The Quick Fire XTi was surprising in various ways. The lighting is rather dynamic considering its relative limitation; the red/blue combination works really well. As these colours are commonly used in the world of gaming peripherals, it won't look out of...

Great performance, Proper Cherry MX switches, Easily configured from the keyboard itself, Removable USB Cable, Nicely sized for a fullsize keyboard, What we disliked, Some may find the lack of software and RGB lighting off putting, White base underneath
Despite its compact dimensions and the lack of special features like macro keys, this is a welldesigned and ergonomic keyboard The coating on the individual keycaps is great and the CherryMX switches provide precise tactile feedback We particularly enjoy...
