   Rarely write reviews, but I have to in this case. The keyboard is absolutely amazing. Gorgeous, ergonomic, works perfectly. Couldn’t have asked for more. And the backlighting is an amazing boon for late night jobs. Can’t recommend it enough.

   I love this keyboard. I got two – one with blue switches and one with brown switches. I just love the blue switches, it’s real pleasure to use it. The brown one is a bit noisier than I hoped, but it’s basically the same as any other mechanical keyboard I had. I really love the low-profile keys and the overall look and feel. It’s just great.

   If Perixx decide to release a version with media keys and volume control – I’m buying 10 of them!!!

   Now if I can find replacement keycaps for the F-keys so I can see the number instead of the funny pictures that would be amazing.

   正直、同じ会社の安いバージョンのほうが手首への負担は圧倒的に少ないが、
   安っぽい作りが気になってこちらに変更。

   無線でエルゴノミックス系のキーボードは一通り使ってみたが、これ以上のものはない感じですね。

   青軸注文したのになぜか茶軸が届いたが、交換とか面倒なのでそのまま使ってます。

   This review is for the Perixx PERIBOARD-835BR Wireless Ergonomic Mechanical Keyboard.

   Pros:
   – Best mechanical ergonomic keyboard on the market (IMO)
   – Multiple connection types available (Bluetooth, 2.4 GHz, and Wired)
   – Aluminum body construction with a sleek, black color
   – Full size keyboard with integrated number pad and wrist rest
   – Multiple mechanical switch options
   – Backlit with translucent keycaps
   – Windows and Mac supported
   – Plug and play with free software driver to customize the keyboard
   – Low profile switches helps reduce keyboard weight and profile
   – Backlight can be configured to use custom colors and non-animated colors

   Cons:
   – Macro buttons are effectively useless. Pressing one of the three macro buttons does not run a macro. Instead, it refers to a virtual layer that allows you to press a key, which triggers the macro to execute multiple keystrokes. For example, you may want to press ‘M2’ to switch to the second virtual keyboard layer and configure the ‘q’ key to execute a series of keystrokes (e.g. ctrl+c). Macros cannot be used to launch programs and you probably want to avoid assigning macros to the default M1 layer since it would prevent the assigned key from performing its function (i.e. pressing ‘q’ in the example above would no longer type the letter ‘q’, it would always print ctrl+c).
   – Function keys (F1, F2, etc) have a backlight for function icons, but not the function number. For example, the ‘volume up’ and ‘volume down’ icons will be backlit, but F1, F2, etc will not be backlit.
   – It’s worth noting that there’s a ‘Function Lock’ button in the top row. By default, actions such as ‘volume up’ and ‘volume down’ will execute automatically (instead of the ‘F11’ and ‘F12’ buttons, respectively) unless the function lock key is enabled.
   – Switches are not hot swappable
   – Wrist rest is not padded

   I had been looking for a while for a light up rainbow-ergo keyboard and I found the Perixx this week. Easy to setup and use (my wrist pain is almost gone after a week of use), its great for anyone who wants to take care of their posture but still flex some style. (I game alot so I really enjoy the light customization and extra features). Keyboard has great action. Two thumbs up!

   I was struggling to find an ergonomic keyboard I could really enjoy. All these Bluetooth ones out there kept disconnecting all the time. On my old ones I would be typing and they would miss letters or whole words out of nowhere, so when I came across this keyboard which is wireless and wired, I was super skeptical. I personally love the clicky clacky of mechanical keyboards. I use mine for gaming and writing, so I needed it to be reliable when wireless or wired. To my absolute surprise it is one of the best keyboards I’ve ever owned. My wrist pain doesn’t bother me nearly as much as it use to with my previous keyboards.

   I previously used a couple different Razer keyboards (you know, mechanical and RGB for the most fun) and this for sure compares in look, feel, and quality. The little feet stands are perfect heights for different situations and positions. The charge on the battery lasts so long especially for how much i use it. And when I mean I use it, I mean I’m writing thousands of words a day. Sometimes writing for 18hrs straight with minimal breaks, then when not writing I’m gaming and this thing does not need to be charged for days even with the abuse I put it through. Most of the time I forget it has a battery until the red light comes on.

   Want it to be wired? Keep it plugged in. Need it to be wireless, unplug it and you can. The desktop program to handle the settings was super easy to figure out. Setting up the rgb lighting to match my other stuff was easy.

   The keys feel sleek and easy to press. It’s just so comfy. It did take a couple weeks of consistent use to get use to where the keys sit, but once I got it, I can’t look at normal keyboards the same.

   I can’t recommend this enough. It was worth every cent I spent on it.

   Oh and the whole wireless thing, yeah, not once have I had it miss a letter or word or randomly lose connection. It’s everything i was looking for.

   For years and years ive used a split keyboard. First i had a logitech wave one, which i found nice. And then after i bought a logitech comfort curve, and even later a microsoft natural ergonomic one, and when i spilled some juice on it, i swapped it out with the non natural microsoft ergonomic keyboard for buisness.

   They all were great, but they were lacking one single thing, which was RGB.
   Since half a year now i own a computer case that has rgb lightning in it, and to compliment on each other i thought it was time to replace my microsoft keyboard (which i loved btw) with this keyboard from perixx

   Initially i thought the design of some keys, felt a bit off, compared to the other keyboards, i had, like the sides of the T, G, 7, h, and more specifically, the N button, which has lowered sides, towards the middle of the keyboard.

   However, i am a typer that doesnt look at the keyboard, when im typing, so my fingers do know where to go automaticly, while typing, and i find, cause of that, that i rarely hit the sides, of these keys, so it isnt botherhing me at all anymore.

   When i first booted my pc, i was unable to enter my pin while entering windows, but maybe that was because the keyboard wasnt in the right modus. Cause it has a couple of them, both for connectivity, as for either windows or mac. But all in all, i managed to got it work straight out of the box, and later downloaded the software for the keyboard, which allow you to change some things like the possibillity, to individual light any key you want in the RGB format.

   I was trying to let some keys, on the keyboard spell my online name Mara, but found out that it was a bit tricky to get it nicely done, cause of the layout on the keys, but hey. Its nevertheless possible to light any key you want in a different color.

   Pattern wise though, that is not possible. There are only a few patterns available, and i decided to stick with the rainbow one for now, which i love, and compliments my case as well.

   It would be nice to have the feature of a custom pattern, but still, this rgb feature is a huge step up coming from my microsoft keyboards.

   So then to the feeling of the typing itself.

   The keyboard i bought has low profile, kailh blue switches. Initially i wanted to have either the brown or the red switches, but im satisfied with what i have now, cause the other switches were either much more expensive here at amazon, or were sold out at perixx’s official EU store.

   But when you want to buy this keyboard yourself, you gotta keep in mind, that its a low profile keyboard, meaning that it feels a bit like typing on a laptop, rather then on a normal keyboard.
   But even it doesnt really feel like a laptop, but somewhere in between. The travel distance for the keys when you are pressing them fully down, is much less then some normal profile keyboards, and a bit more then laptop keyboards.
   If you come from a keyboard where you had to press very hard to make the keys work, this can be a bit consfusing to get used to, cause this perixx 835 types very light. Which is ofcourse great for speed! I mean, with this keyboard, i have the feeling that i even can type faster then i already did!

   So, for that, i would definitely reccomend this one, albeit of its steep price.

   But are there really no downsides for this keyboard?
   Its almost perfect, but there are a tiny bit of things that could be better.

   The biggest issue is the wrist rest underneath the keyboard. It is there, but it isnt doing its job as well as that for example the microsoft ergonomic one did. This one from Perixx, is rather small, and is quite hard. It feels like plastic, or hardened rubber, which i needed to get used to. But i think i can get used to it sooner than later.

   Other issue is the lack of quick bar buttons, or how should i call them?
   On the microsoft one, i had a row above the f keys, where i could shorctut some things like for example, the calculator. That is missing here unfortunally, but maybe i can figure out something, cause this Perixx keyboard, does have macro functions.

   For the rest, there is really nothing wrong with this fabulous keyboard. Its so good! I also have the feeling, that i make less mistakes, while typing, and even at a quicker pace as well!

   So yes! If you are willing to spend this amount of money, its definitely one of the best keyboards you can grad, both for typing, AND gaming!
