CK721 Silver

Currently writing this review with the keyboard. I really like the compact design. The keyboard has a nice weight and premium materials. Typing feels nice, the control knob is a nice touch with multiple uses besides volume control. Great price too if you want to dip your toes into hot-swappable keyboards from a top brand.

Originally aiming for the white/ silver one, but decided to get the 30th anniversary version one. Why you may ask? 1. It came with PBT caps already, compared to the originals. 2. It came with a coiled connector. 3. The color was pretty convincing. I was hesitant with what the negative reviews stated. Since the 30th ann. version was a bit of an upgrade, I caved. Lol So far, it has been a bit over a month in use. I have tested both wired, Bluetooth, and wireless. All works great between daily use and gaming. I haven’t had an issue with it at all. To me, this is a pretty solid board if you are not all about the hot swappable keys. The RGB is super bright and I find the pre-install settings are more than enough. This means no additional program needs to be downloaded. If you want to do more customization, it’s needed. This keyboard saved me so much space and I love it. I cannot wait for them to come out with more accessories for it. Plus, the sound is pretty smooth and quiet to me (compared to my old one). Of course it could be better, but I’m fine with it. A few cons are the wrist pad and space bar. The wrist pad should of been more of a slope for better comfort. I also believe the space bar needs more lube or a different stabilizer. I decided to switch out the black PBT key caps that came with it to white ones I already had. Is it pricey? Not really. Maybe the original colors of grey and silver, but 30th ann. is worth every penny.

I've been a Cooler Master customer for quite some time now. I've owned a number of their products, from cases to case fans and to CPU coolers. They have been selling keyboards for a while now and I've been eyeing some of their options. With the recent release of the CK721, I finally jumped on the mechanical keyboard train. This keyboard is pretty awesome. It's small, compact, and has 3 different connection options, wired, bluetooth, and USB. There's also a number of cool lighting effects, even per-key LED programmability, all of which can be controlled through their MasterPlus+ software. If you're in the market for a small compact mechanical keyboard, I think this is a perfect option.

Absolutely abhorrent stench right out of thr box. I ordered this new and it came already opened and filled with spider eggs along with various other dirt and dust. There is HAIR in my crtl button even after using a air duster. Suprisingly it turns on but the light is very dim and shudders. I was scammed and i write this as a warning to anyone whos looking at this keyboard. DONT FALL FOR IT!!! Learn from my mistakes!

Picked this up for 50% off and have been pleased with this keyboard for my use case. I used it as my daily driver for about 3 months. Personally used this board mostly for work and some casual gaming, so I didn't really explore much of the pre-programmed layers. Unfortunately, remapping with the proprietary Cooler Master program left a lot to be desired, as only specific keys could be remapped into keys from the same specific selection. As a piece of hardware, I think it's quite beautiful and looks/feels much more premium than the price point I paid. Its relatively hefty and sturdy. Additionally, changing the switches and keycaps was simple and the board remained stable while I was swapping switches and keycaps. Sound-wise, there is some minor metal pinging sounds from the top of the case, I think. I can't really eliminate all of it because of the "slide-on" mechanism to remove and replace the top case means some metal parts between the top case and the sliding mechanism will always touch. Sound from the board is otherwise quite pleasant due to the thick silicone layer included inside the board. I personally opted to open it up and apply a tape mod on the bottom of the PCB to further refine the sound of the board. I think the included stabilizers could've used some tuning and relubing because some of the stabilized keys had some rattle, but I couldn't really access or pull the stabilizers out very easily, so I just left them as-is. I think if you have basic needs and like a visually pleasing and pretty good sounding keyboard on a budget, I recommend picking this up on a sale. If you require remapping keys, I'd recommend looking for a different board.

Wow. The colors, the feel. The THOCK. This is such a great keyboard. Don't go wasting your money on $300+ custom keyboards unless you're into that for some reason. This keyboard is all you'll ever need. Its beautiful and the sound it makes is so thick but nice and quiet. Try it, you won't regret it.

The keyboard itself is great, but apparently PlayStation only supports a very few Bluetooth keyboards which is disappointing.

Good size and ergonomics, battery doesn’t last very long with RGB ON but can go through a couple weeks with one charge and RGB OFF. Bluetooth connectivity is stable and can wake up from sleep relatively fast. RGB can be set to turn off after 1 minute of inactivity in wireless mode to save battery. My major complain with this keyboard is how easily the keys wears out, usually you’d expect double shot keycaps at this price but they’re just clear plastic painted white. Other than that, it’s a solid keyboard with very good pc app to program shortcuts and macro, every single key is easily remapable including the knob.

El software es espantozo, se desconfigura todo el rato y dejo de funcionar una tecla depues de menos de un mes.

There is some wobble for the aluminum top plate, one of my switches are faulty after 1-2 days use and the stabilizers rattle. They give you 8 cherry-mx greens but they're not RGB switches so they block the RGB. The usb-c port on the keyboard is weird. You have to push the cable in more than you think. I don't think regular custom usb-c cables will work with this keyboard the cutout for the usb-c port is small and prevents most cables from fitting in properly. Maybe the coolermaster custom keyboard cables will work with it? Maybe that's a cash grab? The Coolermaster plus software to configure lighting and macros/key rebinding works, but crashes a lot when you change lights. This is weird but one of my monitors is oriented 180deg via Windows and when the software full screens on that monitor it's upside down. This doesn't happen with anything else. The firmware seems jank for this keyboard as of 2022-12-21. Sometimes you plug it in and it's one profile, sometimes it's a different profile. Not a huge deal just slightly annoying. Also, Coolermaster's support site is really clunky and difficult to use. Overall good sounding keyboard, good RGB effects, the build is solid and lubing is good. Really good entry-level customizable keyboard at this price point ($130 CAD/$100 USD).

Pretty good value! It sounds and feels great right out of the box.

Es un muy buen teclado para iniciar con los mecánicos, es sencillo, pequeño pero muy estético, el rgb es excelente, las funciones muy variadas, no necesitas al 100 del programa de cooler master, todo puede ser modificado con los shortcuts del mismo teclado, una leidita al manual y con eso quedas al 100 aparte de que tiene muchas claves visuales de como lograr los atajos desde el mismo teclado, con colores y movimientos de luz. Recomendado

Atendeu rodas minhas expectativas! Teclado lindo e entrega tudo q promete! Recomendo!
