I have been searching for the right keyboard for a while, and I had high hopes for this one. It is very quiet, the RGB lighting looks great, and I was able to adjust the lighting without downloading the app. It really is plug and play and feels like it would last a long time.

The magnetic wrist rest is a nice bonus. It stays snug against the keyboard and makes typing more comfortable. The overall build quality feels solid and the lighting is bright and clean.

My issue is the height. I mainly use a work laptop, and transitioning to higher keys is challenging for me. The keys on this keyboard sit too tall for my typing style, so I am returning it and looking for something low profile that still offers the same features.

It is a great keyboard if you prefer standard height keys. It just was not the right fit for me.

As a Keyboard snob and a very hard keyboard user, I really like this keyboard and this company overall. It has a nice break for each key and while the typing is not whisper quiet, it is much less than a cherry red mechanical. I can touch type easily and quickly as everything is where it should be. I also have a older Apex 5 keyboard with the Cherry Brown keys I believe - great keyboard as well, but noisy. I think this Apex 3 is superior in feel and typeability. I have never used the wrist rest before on any keyboards due to my very large hands, but this time I gave it a go, and it really improved the overall feel through my wrists. I am now a believer in the hard smooth angled wrist rests

One thing I really like about this keyboard is that you can get the white LEDs pretty bright so that I can program without overhead lighting and never not see the keys - it is bright enough and it looks legit while being bright. I am too old for the RGB effects, just give me bright white keys!

On my Apex 5, I wore the keys to a high shine and it still hasn't missed a beat. Steel series knows how to put out a extremely useable, high quality product every time. I have had virtually all the big names keyboards and they all have their charms, but for reliability and quality, none has surpassed this manufacturer in my experience, although some have equaled it.

From a dollars and cents standpoint - this is a excellent value!

I’ve been using this keyboard for a few months now, and it’s easily the best value for under $50. If you’re like me and share a room or game late at night, the "Whisper Quiet" switches are a lifesaver. You get a nice tactile bump without waking up the whole house.

Extremely solid keyboard, works really well. The RGB is smooth and blends well with the overall product.

Love using this keyboard, not too noisy when you type. Has a nice tactile feedback also when you type. Pretty good for gaming also. The RGB lighting are worked pretty fine and illuminates the keys fairly well.

The only thing I don't like is they replaced the right-click key with a dedicated Steelseries key, which you can't change or remap even when using the Steelseries GG software.

I have been a fan of Steel Series for quite a while now and this keyboard did not disappoint!

The construction of this keyboard is fantastic. It has a durable metal case that feels extremely sturdy and has a very nice weight. The included wrist rest is magnetic, and the magnets are strong enough to keep it in place without worrying about knocking it off by just moving around. The keystrokes feel really nice and responsive for both gaming and general use, and overall this a very comfortable and satisfying keyboard to use on a daily basis. The RGB lights are also a very nice touch, and the Steel Series software is very easy to use and provides great customization options to get the look and feel you need. You can also use programs like SignalRGB and OpenRGB to control the lights if you prefer.

For the price of this keyboard, I am pretty blown away by how good the quality is. This is an awesome all-around keyboard at a great price, and I'd definitely recommend it. I bought mine for my gaming rig and I'm seriously considering buying a second one for my workstation! 😄

I love everything about it. I can't get into my BIOS with the delete key, but neither could my other keyboard except once on accident. So clearly the problem lies elsewhere. But thats irrelevant.

I love membrane keyboards now. I'd always heard they felt bad. But they feel and sound great too me. Obviously a preference thing. It's much quieter than my mechanical keyboard, and that was the entire point in me getting the keyboard. So that's great. I can press these keys as fast I want without breaking the sound barrier! Keep in mind, any keyboard will be loud during intense gameplay, but this one is still quieter.

I love having a full keyboard. Used to have a 60%. The extra keybinds are great. Feels super responsive in my experience. No complaints. The media wheel is pretty fun to play with. Just don't accidentally blow out your eardrums by maxing the volume and forgetting it. The rgb is bright enough without flashbanging you. Nice weight. Feels like a solid keyboard. Material feels great. Magnetic wrist rest is awesome. I love it. I wish it was a little stronger of a connection, but it's perfectly fine. No complaints.

Can't speak for software because I'm on Linux.

Edit: I made into BIOS a long time ago. Just needed to hold the key instead of pressing it as fast as I could.

As someone who spends a lot of time gaming, I tried the SteelSeries Apex 3 RGB Gaming Keyboard, and I must say, I am very impressed with its features and performance.

The first thing that caught my attention about this keyboard is its sleek and modern design. The keyboard has a smooth matte finish, and the keys have a soft and comfortable feel when typing or gaming. It's also equipped with 10-zone RGB lighting, which allows you to customize the lighting effects and colors to your liking.

One of the standout features of the SteelSeries Apex 3 RGB Gaming Keyboard is its durability. The keyboard is built with a water-resistant design, which means that it can withstand accidental spills and splashes without damaging the keyboard's internal components. This feature provides a sense of security and peace of mind, especially for those who like to enjoy snacks or drinks while gaming.

The keyboard is also equipped with silent gaming switches that are rated for up to 20 million keypresses. These switches provide a satisfying tactile response while also remaining quiet, which is ideal for gaming environments where you don't want to disturb others.

Another notable feature of the SteelSeries Apex 3 RGB Gaming Keyboard is its dedicated media controls, which allow you to adjust the volume, play/pause, skip tracks, and mute the audio without having to leave your game. This feature is very convenient and allows you to easily manage your media while focusing on your game.

Overall, I would highly recommend the SteelSeries Apex 3 RGB Gaming Keyboard to anyone looking for a reliable and durable gaming keyboard that delivers great performance and customization options. With its water-resistant design, silent gaming switches, and dedicated media controls, it's definitely worth considering for your next gaming setup.

love it. it is comfortable to type and it is not as noisy as my previous mechanical keyboard. works well with my Macbook. i dont really do gaming on the pc, but appreciate the software to upload games captured direct to youtube.

the only thing I cant figure yet out is to link spotify to the keyboard shortcut. it is now linked to the stock music software.

overall happy with the purchase. i might get one more for the office!

Beau clavier, fonctionne comme indiqué, belle couleur!

This is one of the most affordable RGB keyboards under recognised brands and for the price I paid, I think it is totally worth it.

The material feels quite premium, and so is the detachable hand rest is really nice. The keys are just right (not too hard, not too soft) to press and are fairly quiet. The software also allows some key customisation.

A few things I wish were better;

- the caps lock indicator light is very small, and located only on the top right corner, hard to see behind the keys. So if you toggle caps lock on and off frequently, it might be difficult to know if it's caps locked.

- the RGB lights are zonal and you cannot assign individual key colours. But for the price, I wouldn't complain about it.

Overall, I'm happy with my purchase.

I bought this for my teenage son for his gaming rig. It looks great and the RGB matches his mouse and fans. The keyboard is solid as you would expect from the brand. The keyboard has been used daily for a few months now and it's shown no issues.
