Noise level depends heavily on switch choice; the silent option is genuinely quiet, but the board still retains recognizable mechanical character with other switches.
At least one review says those profiles can be stored on the keyboard’s internal memory.
Reviews explicitly call out the lack of per-key RGB programming, so lighting control is broad but not granular.
Reviews consistently cite a 1,000Hz polling rate. That is seen as fine for most users, but not class-leading beside 8,000Hz competitors.
