Feels like a typewriter
I didn't buy this for gaming. I bought this so I could easily see the keyboard (letters light up) and the keys feel like that of an electric typewriter (learned to type on a manual typewriter, then switched to an electric). The keyboard has some weight to it so it doesn't slide around the tabletop. Ended up buying one for my husband and he loves it also.

Love the keyboard, Ngenuity not so much
Love keyboard, software not so much. The software incompatibility with Mac significantly hinders the using/changing color profiles. I was easily able to change keyboard shortcuts. It shouldn’t be that hard for NGenuity to be accessible on Mac.

Amazing & Quality Keyboard
This keyboard sounds amazing, it isn't too clickily and has a soft padding like click. The curved keycaps is a nice touch as well as the detachable cable.

Keyboard review
It’s a very high quality keyboard and it’s also fun with the RGB colors. You can download a control app to set up color schemes. The keys are also backlit making it easy to use in dim conditions.

Very durable, great feel well worth the money!
To my surprise, this is an extremely durable keyboard. I not only spilled liquid on it once, but twice and it still functions perfectly (they were not little drops, i’m talking splashes), the lights are gorgeous and the feel of the keyboard and switches are smooth. Its also weighed pretty well so it wont fly off your desk if you bump it.

Love this keyboard!
For years It’s been increasingly frustrating that plastic keyboards keep getting lighter and wear out faster. The solid weight of the Alloy Origins keeps it soundly on the desk and the key response is precise and dependable. Love the customizable LED colors too

great keyboard
The HyperX Alloy Origins is the ultimate gaming and daily use keyboard. It has three unique
LED light settings. It can gradually have each one of the keys change different colors, gradually
highlight every key while all lit up or as you type each key lights up a different color. The
firmness of the keys is ideal and subsequent to typing the keys spring back up at a perfect rate,
which helps silence the typing noise and makes for straightforward typing.

Great and sturdy
The keyboard is a very sturdy keyboard. The colors are a bit much but overall the
satisfaction was great! Am looking forward to adding more products from this company to my setup the
colors are very vivid and I don’t feel like intense gaming will wear it out the buttons are a
little stiff at first but eventually get comfortable

My husband loves this keyboard for playing games on his computer. The lights are a really
cool feature and he says he enjoys. He says the set up and buttons are really easy to use. Overall,
very pleased with this product and would recommend to anyone looking for a new keyboard who enjoys
computer games.

Great features
I'm not a real gamer nor am i stuck at a desk all day, but the time i've spent with this
keyboard has opened my eyes to the convenience and forward-thinking designs we have available. This
keyboard has been a joy to work with and the lights help in darker settings to get your feel.
Recommend buying it

Great features!
I recieved this not too long ago and I LOVE it! It looks so wonderful all lit up and works
amazing. I really like the detachable powercord, it responds fast and works for a variety of gaming
plat forms. I would highly recommend this to others who like to game as much as I do. it is also
very affordable which makes it even better.

Highly accurate and cool lights
This is my first fancy mechanical keyboard and I love it so much Im going to buy a 2nd one
for my office. The key clicks are a tad loud and may annoy others, but it doesn't bother me, in
fact, I like it because it feels like it helps with accuracy. Its great for typing fast with no
missed strokes. Highly accurate. I like to work/play in the dark so the illuminated keys are great
(even if they are a little bright). One cool feature is the option to turn it off but leave on any
keys you want.

I got this for my nephew and he is thrilled with it! He said his hands fit perfect on the
key board...most was to big for him giving hes a kid but this one seems to be working pretty good
for him! The lights are cool and the key board is well worth the money! Highly recommend! I think
any age would enjoy

Great Colors, Easy to the Touch
Compared to other mechanical keyboards I've used, this one has so many of the features that
I've been looking for. First of all, the keyboard has no rim which is great because it is far easier
to clean. A little canned air goes a long way. Second, it feels great on the fingers. Whatever the
keys are coated in feels great to the touch. The HyperX Aqua mechanical switch is snappy, quiet, and
has a very low travel distance. Besides all that, it looks awesome. The colors are bright and the
fact that it changes color is icing on the cake. I like that it's USB-C which is a more modern
approach to these types of keyboards. The only thing I didn't like was that the keys seem as if
they're a little too easy to snag. Within the first use, I had already snagged one of the keys which
makes me think there could be many blemishes with increased wear.

Cool Colors
This Keyboard is great! The weight is heavier than normal keyboards and feels very sturdy.
The colors change on their own and are very nice and not overpowering. The keystrokes are smooth and
do not make a ton of sound. The Install was so quick and easy! PLUG AND PLAY
extra bonus: the Power cord also works on a Nintendo Switch console.

Absolutely amazing! Great for true gamers.
I recently received this alloy origins mechanical gaming keyboard by HyperX. This is by far
the greatest gaming keyboard I have ever owned. The alloy construction makes for a heavy weight,
durable product which is compatible with PC, Xbox One and PS4. The RGB lighting effects are superior
to all other keyboards I have seen. These lighting effects can be changed to your preference and be
completely shut off if you so choose. The mechanical keys allow the ability the customize your own
keys and make your keyboard truly unique. I have submitted a photo to illustrate the original
keyboard and how it looked after changing a few of the keys. I would highly recommend this keyboard,
especially to anyone who considers themselves a true gamer.

Great product
It was easy to connect to my ps4. It made gaming fun. Different than using a regular control
but definitely made it a challenge at first. Loved all the colors. The 2yr warranty was the best
part for me. Makes me feel comfterable that it's going to last me a long time. My nephews are
already trying to take it away from me.

Perfect!
This keyboard has everything I was looking for. The RGB, the build quality. The weight of
the it keeps it in place during even my more intense playing. The RGB colors are so vibrant and
totally seamless making my gaming experience a cut above other keyboards. HyperX's own red (linear)
switches are smooth for your gaming pleasure. I love the three options to adjust the keyboard angle
too. Overall this is an excellent keyboard for gaming and I would highly recommend it for any gaming
level.

Expertly Designed Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
This keyboard is everything I wanted it to be: durable, adjustable and impressive. The
switches are perfectly responsive and the RGB back lighting jazzes up the look in the most perfect
way. It has been a conversation starter since I first used it with friends over. It has a great
feel, consistent feedback, and the click is just so satisfying. It is travel friendly, since the
body is compact and the USB Type-C cable is detachable.There are three different tilt levels to
allow for comfort-based adjusting. Hyper-X thought of everything when making this keyboard and it
shows. I highly recommend it, with confidence.

Killer Board Bro
I got this for my little brother who plays WoW and pretty much every other computer game and
he was ecstatic to use this. The keys are very fluid and the way it lights up are a very nice touch.
He hasnt stopped playing since I gave it to him so keep that in mind that it will keep you in the
computer chair longer than expected

Very cool keyboard!
This keyboard is awesome! First the key board colors are bright and vibrant and change
colors as you’re playing. I like how their are kick stands so the keyboard can be up at an
angle. The keys are very lightweight to the touch and I’m not used to that, It makes my gaming
experience so much easier. I can type faster and am just mesmerized by the colors. This keyboard is
so much nicer than all my previous ones. Will not go back. Would definitely recommend!

Awesome keyboard. I love the colors and the size is perfect. My husband is a big gamer and
he loved using this keyboard over his old ones. It’s nice that it lights up so you can see in
the dark. It is also nice that it is compatible with Xbox and PlayStation along with the computer.
It is the perfect size

So fun!
I’ll be honest, when I first got this, I didn’t have the highest hopes but boy
was I wrong. This keyboard is so much fun!! It doesn’t just light up but the lights change,
like a fading feature. It’s absolutely the coolest keyboard. So fun! I’d highly suggest
thing. Works great and looks awesome. The way the lights fade make it really fun! No matter your
age, you’d enjoy this.

Love it!
Recieved this a week ago and it is amazing! The lights have multiple different settings so
you can pick which one best fits you. My husband like to play his game at night before bed. With
this keyboard I am able to turn the light off and he can still play because it lights up bright
enough he can see what he is doing. The keys are extremely easy to push and the keyboard itself is
pretty heavy. It was easy to install and we didn't have any issues with it. All around great
product! Would definitely recommend!

How do I change the backlighting? Is there a certain key command?
Hello. Thanks for your question. You would need to download the HyperX NGenuity software to change the backlighting: https://hyperx.com/pages/ngenuity
