The 75% layout with function row and extra navigation is practical, though not every reviewer loves the specific key choices.
Reviewers like the choice between 65% and 96%, with both sizes seen as useful rather than filler.
Main legends are usually praised as crisp and durable, but some reviews note that secondary functions are harder to see because they are not backlit.
Shine-through doubleshot legends stay readable and are integrated well into the keycaps.
Macro support exists and can be powerful, but some reviewers note that advanced macro-style features rely on Synapse being active.
Macro support is robust, with dedicated layers and macro creation available through the software.
Material quality is repeatedly described as premium for the category, especially the aluminum top and overall finish.
Material choices balance an aluminum top with plastic or polymer sections, landing as good rather than all-premium.
Media controls are available through function layers rather than dedicated keys, which makes them useful but not especially elegant.
