It's pretty heavy and feels really solid. The USB cable is braided and appears to be high quality. Not being a gamer, I didn't realize how much difference there was between the various switch types (brown versus red versus blue, and so on). As it states in the description, this keyboard uses the red switches, which don't click at all. That just seems a little... weird for a mechanical keyboard, but you get used to it pretty quickly. The RGB lighting looks good. Unfortunately, Lenovo didn't put in any keyboard shortcuts to change the mode - you have to use their software for this. Not a huge deal at all, especially when using it with a work computer, but it would have been nice. The factory default color is white throughout the keyboard, with (to my eyes) just a hint of blue. It's subdued and pleasant. A key cap puller would have been a nice addition. This is vastly better than a keyboard with membrane switches. I highly recommend it! Review: Recommend - Great feel. Excellent software. Enjoyable experience and worth the buy.
