PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard - Review

Introduction

As a professional product reviewer, I have had the chance to test some of the most innovative and high-performance gaming keyboards on the market. Today, I would like to share my thoughts on the PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard, a full-size mechanical keyboard with hot-swappable switches, RGB backlighting, and customizable keycaps.

Design and Features

First of all, the PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard looks stunning. It features a black metal top plate that gives it a sleek and durable appearance. The keyboard also comes in a variety of top cover plate colors, including white, blue, red, purple, and pink, allowing users to personalize their gaming setup according to their preference.

The PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard has an OEM layout with a standard ANSI layout and a standard-sized bottom row. This makes it compatible with many third-party keycaps on the market. Additionally, the keyboard comes with PBT keycaps that are extra bright and easy to read, thanks to the backlit RGB SMD LED lights. The key legends are clear and easy to read, even in a dimly lit room.

The PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard doesn't compromise on customization. With its revolutionary hot-swap RGB feature, users can switch out their switches with ease, without having to solder anything. This feature allows users to choose between three different types of Gateron Optical mechanical switches: clicky, linear, or tactile. The hot-swappable switches are a game-changer for DIY enthusiasts as it enables them to test different switches and find the perfect fit for their typing and gaming needs.

The keyboard features over 115,168,768 possible colorway, cable, and switch combination options, giving users ultimate control over their gaming setup. The keyboard also comes with pre-installed Hot Swappable Gateron Optical Brown Mechanical switches that are tactile, and not overly clicky for any environment. Furthermore, the keyboard hotkeys provide quick access to major RGB patterns, making customization even more user-friendly. The keyboard's compatibility extends to various operating systems, including Windows, Mac, and keyboard-supported consoles such as PS4, PS5, and Xbox.

Ergonomics and Performance

The PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard's built-in 3 position stand allows for adjustable angles, allowing for a more comfortable typing experience. The keyboard's ergonomics make it suitable for both gaming and office setups. The keyboard comes with OEM sculpted keycaps, so your hands and fingers can maintain their dexterity and not stiffen over time. Prolonged gaming sessions did not cause any hand fatigue or discomfort.

The keyboard's full aluminum metal top plate and ABS plastic bottom plate with dampening foam provide the perfect sound tuning capabilities, allowing users to choose between a "clacky" or "thocky" sound. The keyboard has a satisfying tactile feel that is perfect for typing or gaming. Also, the keyboard has RGB backlighting that is excellent in low light conditions.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard is an excellent choice for gamers who like to customize their gaming setup according to their preference. It's a gorgeous keyboard with outstanding customization features such as hot-swappable switches, RGB backlighting, and keycap options. The keyboard's ergonomic design makes it suitable for both gaming and office setups, and its compatibility with various operating systems and consoles makes it a versatile tool for gamers. The only minor drawback is that it may take some time getting used to typing on the customized keys. Nonetheless, the PWNAGE Ultra Custom Gaming Keyboard is an outstanding keyboard that offers superior performance and customization options. I highly recommend it to gamers, DIY enthusiasts, and anyone who loves customization.
