Max Keyboard

post #1 of 27
Thread Starter 
Are there any other keyboard manufacturers that produce back-lit, brown switch keyboards?

And if anyone has a max keyboard, what is it like? Is it worth it or are there better options?

frown.gif I like volume controls.....and there are group buy deals for the max keyboard.

Ducky shine 2 does have volume control on f keys and does have a windows disable function. I recently purchased a ducky shine 2 white led tenkeyless and love it. I highly recommend it! Here is the website where you can order them and a bunch of other mechanical keyboards.

Does the numlock/capslock LEDs really stay at full brightness no matter what? Quite strange.

I still can't pick really.....the group buy option for max keyboard makes it so much cheaper and I really like their aesthetics as well AND it comes with a baller wrist rest.

yeah well ive never been one for a simple keyboard and i hate fn keys, would much rather have the dedicated media and macro keys,
and any plastic i can dye black i will. i decided on it after seeing what was mostly very simple designed mech keyboards

although i agree with you on the grey key colors, idk why make them a separate color, they already have a gaming led mode

Most of the cooler master series has back lights and you can get blue's/red's/brown's and blacks.
The trigger has volume control, variable back lighting and volume and media keys, you can also disable the windows key.
