Most excellent, highest quality, feature rich keyboard!

- Weight: 650g
Salient features:
- Says Certified Bluetooth 5.1, connect to 3 devices. Use as Wireless or plugin/charge as wired. I had no problem using the bluetooth.

- On-board Memory, Full Keys Programmable, Macro Customization. 4 Configuration Layers. [see Why Programable Keyboards Are Better Than Software Key Remap]

The one i have is Gateron Red Switch (linear). (Gateron Red Switch is lighter than Cherry MX Silent Red, but slightly louder.)
