XVX 75% Keyboard with Color Smart Display, L75 Pro Low Profile Gasket Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, Bluetooth 5.1/2.4G Wireless/Type-C Wired Custom Anime Key board with RGB Backlit, Black Kanagawa Theme

Best keyboard I’ve ever used or had. It’s computerized, I can connect it whatever I want! It’s got a lot of RGB features for lighting effects and colors. I never thought I’d get compliments on my typing sounds, but I definitely do, and I like it! Excellent to game with, type with, and makes my desk look even better! I can use it anywhere because it’s wireless with long range! I can be in bed with my computer set up to my tv, laptop, etc. Right now I have it set up to my iPhone, and I am typing out this review with my lovely keyboard here. Everyone that sees my keyboard compliments it. I am very happy with this purchase!

CONS: - Knob cannot act as a dedicated volume knob. You must click the knob with FN pressed down, then the keyboard enters volume adjustment mode. Once you are done, press FN+Knob again to exit volume mode. For me this defeats the purpose of having volume knob in the first place, because most of the time I'd like to just spin the knob to quickly turn down or up my music without having to look down at my keyboard and fumble with multiple keystrokes. - The letters on the keys aren't see-through. So the backlight doesn't illuminate the keys. This might make typing at night difficult if you haven't gotten good at touch-typing. Not a big deal to me but it would be nice to have see-through keycaps. PROS: It's a good keyboard and does the job. Nice build quality. Sounds great. Nice lighting modes. Has a nice weight to it. Easy to set up. Great value for the money. Disclaimer: this is my first hour of having the keyboard. I'll come back to leave a different review if I run into any problems with connectivity or battery life. But, so far, so good.

Overall a very decent keyboard for the price, I spent hours debating between it and the XVX K75 Pro before eventually settling on the K75 Pro but accidentally leaving the M87 Pro in my cart and ordering it as well. This gave me a nice opportunity to compare the two and I left a lengthy review of the K75 Pro on it's listing by the HITIME with detailed comparison between it and the M87 Pro but won't be doing much comparing here. This review will instead be focusing more on the M87 Pro as a comparative review would make the M87 Pro look like a much worse keyboard than it is and by no means is it a bad keyboard, I just preferred the K75 Pro as the features it lacks versus the M87 Pro ultimately weren't as important to me. If I were bringing my keyboard with me I'd have chose the M87 Pro but my keyboard never leaves my desk. Personally I'd absolutely love to see an XVX K87 Pro that is literally just the M87 Pro but with a CNC aluminum chassis and the same gasket/layering construction as used in the K75 Pro. PROS: - Double-shot keycaps. Neither the product listing or the XVX website say the keys are double-shot, they say the keycaps are dye sublimated. However, upon examination, I was very pleasantly surprised to find they definitely are double-shot keycaps. The exception to this are the extra colored keycaps that it comes with as an option to swap to, those are dye sublimated. - The knob. Solid, high quality feel, very tactile graduations during turning, and a satisfying click when depressing. Having the knob makes navigating the TFT screen menus so much easier than using "Fn" + "PgUp" / "PgDn" and "Fn" + "Enter" like you have to do on the K75 Pro that does not include a knob. I saw some complaints in other customer's reviews of the M87 Pro that you have to change the knob to volume control mode by holding "Fn" + pressing the knob down and those complaints made it seem as if you had to do this every time you wanted to change the volume. In fact, those complaints were the main reason I ordered the K75 Pro instead of the M87 Pro; I was worried I wouldn't be able to have a looping GIF playing while I change the volume and would need to fiddle with function keys to change the volume then go back to the GIF. Naturally when the package arrived and I realized I'd accidentally ordered both I tested it out and you do not have to do it every time you want to change the volume, you can set everything up with the TFT menus, scroll over to the GIF loop, and then enter and stay in volume mode. There's really no reason to ever exit volume mode once you've set the keyboard up unless you're using it in wireless mode and want to check the battery percent. - Pop out feet. I didn't realize how much I liked having pop out feet until I tried the M87 Pro and the K75 Pro (which does not have pop out feet) side by side, the pop out feet of the M87 Pro are a big pro in my book and allow a much more comfortable typing angle. - Build quality. While initially the heft and sturdiness of the K75 Pro's aluminum chassis sort of spoiled me toward the M87 Pro, rest assured the build quality of the M87 Pro is top notch and comparing aluminum to plastic is just an unfair comparison. If asked 100 random people to compare two near identical products, the only difference being one is aluminum chassis and the other a plastic chassis, they'll say the plastic one feels cheap or is lower quality nearly every time; even if that's not at all the case. When I removed the K75 Pro from the equation and started fairly comparing the M87 Pro to my $139.99 MSRP CoolerMaster Masterkeys S and my $159.99 MSRP Corsair K70 RGB Mk.2 I was very impressed by how much better the M87 Pro felt than the two significantly more expensive plastic chassis keyboards from big name brands. - Typing sound. It's nothing to write home about by any means and doesn't have that deep "thocky" sound that keyboard enthusiast ASMR videos tout but it's also by no means bad. It was a lot better than I would expect for a plastic chassis mechanical keyboard in this price range and definitely better than my Masterkeys S with Cherry MX Blue switches or my K70 RGB Mk.2 with Cherry MX Speed switches which surprised me. CONS: - My only real gripe about the keyboard itself is a minor one and pertains to the knob. While it feels good, sounds good, and looks good, I wasn't a fan of how heavy the resistance to turn it was. It's fine when using two fingers and a thumb in a claw grip or one finger and a thumb in a pinch grip but while trying to turn it with one finger by sliding that finger forward or backward down the side of the keyboard is definitely doable, the amount of force required to push to the next graduation causes it so sort of tilt inward toward the screen and overall isn't great. It feels like you could potentially break it over time by repeatedly doing it like that. - LED color accuracy and brightness, they're both acceptable but not great and they barely edge over into being a con in my book. While the brightness is decent compared to cheaper Amazon keyboards I've had in the past it's not as good as my Masterkeys S or K70 RGB Mk.2 although both of those do have the advantage of having keys with clear plastic for the double shot ledger so the LED will shine through them. The solid "purple" setting is more of a hot pink bordering on magenta, the solid "orange" setting is more yellow than orange, and the solid "yellow" setting has a heavy green tinge to it and almost borders on being green. This is pretty typical for presets even with big name brands like Corsair or Razer but with the M87 Pro the color accuracy of preset solid colors is noticeably worse than you would see from brand like Corsair or Razer. You can usually tune this to be more accurate in software but that brings me to my next point. - Proprietary software is Windows and MacOS only. While I have not tinkered with it myself yet and knew at time of purchase from what I'd read/seen in other reviews both here and on YouTube there is no Linux version of their proprietary software nor support for open source software like VIA, QMK, OpenRGB, or Aurora. I will be testing with all of the various FOSS keyboard software I just listed but I suspect that without tons of tinkering you'll be stuck using their proprietary software to do anything in regards to the TFT screen. In the case of Linux users like myself this means spinning up a Windows VM just to change the saved to keyboard RGB profiles or add GIF's unless the proprietary software works with some sort of Wine wrapper which is doubtful. Overall a good keyboard, I'd even go so far as to say great once you consider the price, and puts my Masterkeys S to shame which shocked me as I've been a Cherry MX Blue fanboy for a decade now. Other reviewers have called it hefty and while it is plenty hefty enough to not be sliding around your desk (especially if you have a desk mat) it's light compared to the K75 Pro while having only slighter less battery life and is much more suitable for travel use.

I love the value for it, brightness is adjustable which I like, but it’s a tiny bit tough to type on if you are used to typing on larger keys. Also, size is great, has a screen where u can apply gifs, and feels great. 10/10⭐️

i didnt have high hopes for this keyboard that much but i was proven wrong this keyboard is amazing the rgb options the screen this is the best keyboard the sound the caps is great to many options to use you can do blue tooth and usb i defo recommend

pros i love the spacing of the arrow keys vs other compact keyboards. love the gif and the screen for settings. good sound cons you can only have one gif on at a time. you can have a few saved in the app but you have to have it plugged into your pc to change it thought the app. heavy from what im use too with other compacts. i wish their was a lock when you pushed the know down or something that would leave it on the gif. sometimes it gets bumped and changes. over all no big cons i would but another one!

Would not recommend came broken no keys works oled is glitching would not recommend waste software arent even updated got a virus from it

Looking into my first foray into a customizable mechanical keyboard. I wanted a volume knob, access to the PrintScrn, Del, Home, and End buttons I use a ton, good RGB, and a solid keyboard that had a feel that I would enjoy. After some research, this seemed like one of the best values as a prebuilt with potential for modifications later, so I could ease my way into the hobby a bit, or just end up with a solid keyboard stock. These ratings are going to be personal. So hopefully you can find out if this keyboard is for you or not. Pros: - Weighty - This keyboard has some heft. It's about the same weight as my older Corsair K95 in a much more compact for factor. It's lighter, but not much which is odd considering it takes up about 25% less desk space. Feels very solid. - This sounds amazing to me (Note: I'm coming from a Corsair K70 and K95 from 3+ years ago). Nice quiet but solid sound when pressing the keys. No major ping, not too loud, not too hollow. I'd say Thocky, but I'm still new to the space, so what's Thocky to me may not be to an expert. - Solid typing experience - No flex at all. I think it has an aluminum or steel plate. I realize this can be a con for some people, and I'll get to that later. - Stock key caps and switches are nice. The caps feel well constructed, and the switches are nice, linear, and have solid actuation. They're not quite as sensitive as the Cherry Silvers I've been using for a while, but they feel smooth and stable, so it's not been a major adjustment to get used to. I like the black and grey combo, as it's tasteful without being overbearing in my darker setup. - Nice Screen - The screen is bright, easy to read, and easy to program using their software. You can load up almost any animated GIF. - Connectivity - Supports wired, 2.4g Wireless, and up to 3 BT devices (not all at once). - The screen gives a ton of easy to understand control of the board and it's functions without needing to memorize a ton of FN options or use the software. Super use friendly stock. - The Knob - I need a knob for volume control. I was initially disappointed that it only controlled the screen, but it turns out I just missed this in the description. With a FN+Knob press, the knob goes into volume mode rather than board control mode. This was literally one of my issues with why I may not keep the keyboard, but now that's solved, so now I'm even more torn! Unsure: - I had some issues with the wireless connectivity dropping the connection and having issues with keys when it was in the back of the PC. That said, it was then near the wifi antena, had to pass though the PC case twice, as well as a full monitor, so there may just have been too much interference. Since I've moved it, I haven't had any noticable issues. - Software is very meh. It's usable, but I had to search for it to find it, and it's not super user friendly, particularly with making FN mapping which only has 1 layer, and it's not VIA compatible. That said, it's not bad, it's just meh. - Animated GIFs seem to ignore delays or only support delays up to .5 seconds (500ns?) so when I tried to make a custom GIF it's pacing was off. It also is limited to up to 141 frames, which while not a huge issue, does limit what you can do. Note: I have had some issues with the keyboard that could be because of shipping damage, so I'm not counting them so far. The wifi issue, and a few occasional key press issues, as well as it locking up once when changing between wired and wireless. The keyboard was shipped in a box 4 times the size of the keyboard box with no additional padding. Thanks Amazon! Not the product's fault. Cons: - Mode Switching - The lack of a switch means it's either hot keys or screen navigation. I really wish it had a switch. Hot key navigation also changes the screen but doesn't put you back in navigation mode, so you have to swap to the screen control, put it back where you want it, and then go back to volume mode. - No Wifi dongle holder - I mean seriously? This is pretty standard to have either a magnetic slot, or a cover where you can stash it. Absolutely nothing. - Stiff backplate means the key bottom out is harsh on your fingers. I'm finding this is a little harder to type on long term than I was expecting even with the great switches and experience because I'm bottoming out the keys and it's harsh, so my fingers are getting a bit sore. I could probably get used to that, and I'm surprised my Corsair didn't have that issue as it's all aluminum, but it could be the post trigger pressure on those Silver switches, or maybe this is just a very stiff keyboard. I thought I would like that, maybe I don't. I'd probably need a few more days with it. This is also something that could be modded, so how much of a downside it is for you may be debatable. - Screen can't be turned off manually/no sleep settings - I can't turn the screen OFF without turning the keyboard off or getting it to sleep itself. This is frustrating as the keyboard doesn't seem to sleep in wired mode, (it does in wireless modes, maybe I just haven't given it enough time in wired mode) but as someone with the keyboard in a bedroom, I like to be able to turn off as much lighting as possible, and if the screen is a true OLED, I'd worry about burn in long term. - Can't save lighting modes to the board - I can set a lighting mode, and it will stay between wired and wireless. But if you ever change the lighting mode on the keyboard using the screen, it will override your manual lighting mode and you need to use the software to get it working again (and I actually had trouble getting the software to actually do that, it took several attempts). It's nice that there are 19 modes and "off" on the lighting that are preset, but why not have 1-3 user set modes that I could save to the board so I don't accidently swap to a lighting mode I don't want and need to connect the keyboard via wired mode to reset it? - RGB is lackluster - Yes, it's north facing RGB. That is not as big a deal as it used to be, as many switch makers are building compatible switches for north facing. My issue is the RGB is just not very bright. I wanted to try some pudding key caps, and found the light was so dim on it's brightest setting it didn't illuminate anything other than the shine though main part of the key. Now, it could be hampered by not having a good diffuser on the switches (which are translucent black top caps with an RGB pass though, so don't block the light but don't help it shine), but even with no cap, the lights are not super bright, even in wired mode. - Single size feet with no rubber bottoms - No 2 stage feet, and no rubber on the adjustable feet. The base rubber on the bottom of the case is great, but if you use the feet, you lose 2 rubber contacts. Not an issue on things like a desk pad, but if it's on a solid desk, you could get some sliding. There is a spot to mount your own rubber, so that's an option I guess, but feels like an oversight. - Issues with opening - I never tried to open mine, but if you choose to mod the keyboard, as one tends to do in the keyboard hobby, 2 screws are under the rubber feat, and 1 screw is under the label in the back. The rubber feat could be glued back on (or removed if you're using the stand, as I think they're the top/back feet), but the one under the label means you'll have a potentially ugly rip in the label below the keyboard. Minor issue, but still not fun. - No spare switches - I mean, I get it's a value keyboard, but you had a USB cable, a key puller, some nice accent key caps for a splash of color, why not 3 spare switches? So, would I recommend this keyboard? Yes. I think it could be a great keyboard for a lot of users, IF it fits your needs. Is this keyboard for me? I don't think so, which is a shame, as the typing experience on this is solid, and I love the customizable screen and figured out the volume knob, but issues with the software, the bottom out hardness issue, and weak RGB as well as how clunky it is to change modes and no dongle holder really hold it back in my eyes. But that doesn't mean this wouldn't be a good keyboard for someone else. I feel bad because I really do enjoy the keyboard overall, but I keep hitting the shortcomings of it my use cases. Keyboards are extremely personal however, so hopefully this review is helpful in you figuring out if this keyboard is right for you or not.
