  • Our final verdict regarding the Apex M800 gaming keyboard is more than positive as the company managed to create a solid, almost perfect highquality product We definitely like the fact that this a heavy keyboard, with an attractive but not excessive desi...

  • QS1 switches are excellent. Cartainly comparable to Cherry MX, RGB backlighting is some of the best available, Solid construction, high built quality, Great remapping and back end customisation, Great space bar
  • Expensive, Not the best keyboard backlighting for the money, No wrist rest.
  • The Steelseries Apex M800 incorporates brand new mechanical switches which are comparable and possibly even better than Cherry MX switches. We don't want to delve too much into comparisons, as this is very much a personal choice decision, but Steelseries'...

  • Brilliant RGB lighting, Software has better control over lighting modes and macros, Keys have good feedback for gaming, Two USB 2.0 passthrough ports
  • Expensive, Bad typing experience, Applying and retaining effects are buggy in the software
  • Mechanical keyboards are expensive because of their unique feedback given from the tactile and clicky switches. This is absent on the keyboard, hence we are sceptical about the extremely high price on the Apex M800. The new switch design brings along the...

  • Abstract:  LED lighting and gaming keyboards go together like noobs and tears. But in the past, LED lighting was generally just one color and mostly for show. Today, we have gaming keyboards with lights capable of displaying up to 16.8 million colors. These keyboard...

  • Abstract:  Steelseries, marque qui dit elle-même proposer des articles pour joueurs professionnels, a longtemps été synonyme de sobriété (quelle belle époque…) avec des claviers mécaniques réellement destinés aux joueurs pros tels que le 6GV2 et 7GV2. Et puis le mar...

  • La réduction du bruit pour un clavier mécanique, Agréable même pour les longues sessions de jeu, Macros, Touches QS1 très rapides
  • Un socle en plastique qui semble peu solide
  • Le SteelSeries Apex M800 est un excellent clavier, avec un prix correct, il arrive à conjuguer une réactivité/rapidité exemplaire grâce aux nouvelles touches exclusives QS1 et un niveau de sonorité très faible ce qui fait de lui un incontournable des clav...
