    Came today by dpd very well made heaivest keyboard i have ever owned
    there's a red ciircle thing on the back what is it ? (edited)

    It's a keycap puller. You use it like the picture below to remove the keycaps. You can replace the keycaps entirely with others if you wanted to or you can remove them to clean underneath, which is especially useful if you spill something on the keyboard. For most people though they probably will never use it. It's handy to have though just in case.

    It’s sourced from game, so I reserved one directly from game so no delivery or pickup charge

    I can confirm it is a uk layout, I have 2 of these and the last one was delivery 2 days ago.

    Collected mine from the GAME. A bit loud yet excellent for the price!

    Any wireless keyboards that are TKL, mechanical but quiet with UK layout that has the bigger Enter buttons for about £25? I know it’s very specific lol, but I just want one for office use and don’t wanna spend above £25

    amazon.co.uk/Blu…-25

    You're not going to get very far with just £25, but the one above will match most of your needs, minus the big enter key.

    Really Good price for a full size mechanical keyboard with red switches.

    Its only let down by the left shift key. Is the keyboard UK or US layout. Either way its a messy layout.
    davocc's avatar
    Photos on the site are showing US ANSI layout, this is the standard for not just the US but places like Canada, Australia, NZ, etc. I guess when the Americans invented English back in 1956 they didn't let us use their layout or something...

    That's probably why most cheaper boards are configured just for that, the UK market may not be big enough unless you're selling boards for 10-15 times this price. I'm actually not sure who else uses the UK layout, I think some EU boards are the same physical design with different legends? I know the physical spacing is ISO but key caps are unique to various languages limiting their scope.

    FWIW I have a "Skylion G300" which is another US layout and I think it's roughly the same as this board for primary components, etc. - if so it's a REALLY good buy, the thing punches wildly above its weight in terms of keyfeel and build. I have two (one with blue clicky switches) which is a lot louder but that's stood up remarkably well even to gaming use. For actual typing, coding, writing, etc. - these red switches are a real gem, at least as good as the Cherry Red 4mm travel switches (I can't tell a huge difference but I think I like them slightly more than my Cherry Red boards).

    I've got a couple of grand worth of mechanical keyboards as I'm a tiny bit fanatical about key feel, this was probably the biggest surprise to me since I first tried an IBM Model F capacitive buckling spring back in the day (one of the top three of all time for me).

    Got this in-store from sports direct without click and collect. A very well built keyboard you can feel the quality of it.

    Would this be a good upgrade for my standard issue office keyboard for typing all day long on at home ?

    Don't know about this particular one, but I recently bought this Cooler Master CK352 amazon.co.uk/dp/…WGZ with red switches (same as the one in this deal) & is the best keyboard I've ever owned. Used only for typing so far.
    Bought via a tip-off for only £23 via the recent Amazon Warehouse 30% offer hotukdeals.com/com…660 - it arrived 'like new', just as described by Amazon. (edited)

    Ordered 2 and received them today via Evri.

    One for me and one for the lad.

    Quite impressed to say the least, it's certainly a very hefty feeling keyboard.

    One question, is it possible to operate the keyboard using a USB to PS/2 adapter? Didn't seem, to work for me doing that but not a big deal.
