GXTrust Torix Mechanical Keyboard QWERTY UK Layout, Black

My son was happy with it

This is a great keyboard. It looks good, feels good to use, is low profile (my preference and struggled to find one at a decent price point), and has great individual key RGB. I really enjoy typing on it, moreso whilst knowing that after some research, I've saved myself over £100 opting for this over another more top-end one from a rival manufacturer.I have had it 2 weeks and whilst I'm not using it overly heavily, I am using it over the course of 8 hours a day over a working week and have probably hit several thousand keystrokes so far minimum - hard to calculate but it definitely may be more.The issue is whilst the keys aren't too bad in terms of showing shiny spots on the letter keycaps from use (and a shine is showing), the spacebar is the most used key - and this is now showing a very shiny spot that is clearly visible - something I'd expect to see after a year's use minimum at my pace.Thankfully I'm hitting the spacebar to the right side of where the RGB light for it is. But this is an indicator of wear and tear. If 2 weeks use is revealing shiny spots, we can imagine how it's going to look in a few month's time. If this was a £100+ keyboard from a known brand (some hitting £150 and even approaching £200) this would maybe be unacceptable. But on a keyboard that was £41 on Black Friday, it's not a worry at the moment but I do wonder how it's going to fare going forward.Can't see it breaking down mechanically - the build is very sound for the price - but the material of the keycaps is up for question - and clearly doesn't have the durability - durability that I still kinda expected at this price point (seeing as I have Lenovo/Dell/Logitech wired membrane keyboards that took years to show similar wear on the keycaps, and yes whilst not RGB, these keyboards are even cheaper in comparison to this Trust one).Just food for thought, for the typists here. For sporadic gaming use and the money spent, I think it'll be fine. I'm in two minds on whether to just return it and opt for something of substantial cost, or just stick with it and let it wear down.

I was amazed at the features this board has for the price, download the software and it's very bling if that's your style but for a full size keyboard it's a bargain.

From time to time when I type a word and press ctrl or enter, the keyboard automatically applies the alt key, even though I did not press the alt key.I downloaded and installed the latest firmware but still have the issue.In the gx trust keyboard software, no macro is setup.

Great keyboard and sturdy build, would definitely recommend

Well impressed! Volume control is really useful

I fell in love with this keyboard as soon as I plugged it in. As a keyboard it could not do the job any better. And the sound it makes is wonderful.Only issue is had was the app that accompanies the keyboard is bugged and crashes a lot. But if you aren't fussed about setting up your own state for the RGB element of this, this keyboard is the one for you at a great price

Far too sensitive (just brushing a key leads to an input, meaning constant typos) and downloaded software doesn't allow you to adjust sensitivity. The software also crashes every time I use it. Wish I never bought it.
