I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve bought this great keyboard, I’ve resold them all… This one, being ABNT2, I’m going to keep in my setup! I recommend it. 👍🏽

The keyboard is very good, I’m still getting used to the size since I used to use a full-size one. Vibrant colors, medium size, and a keyboard that appears to be quite durable.
I really liked the colors, the shipping speed, and especially the size.

Excellent keyboard, sounds spectacular. Tested on Ubuntu and works great, no need to install any software, as the lights can be controlled directly from the keyboard. At first it’s hard to understand, but there are some videos on YouTube that show how to set it up. Thank you, Chinese saviors, a keyboard like this would cost around 120,000 in Chile.

A very interesting keyboard for its price. The keys are very pleasant to press, fast, quiet, and the LEDs are quite good with various mode options. However, I think these keyboards could also have their own software on the computer, but other than that, it’s a great keyboard.

The quality is good, there are many backlighting modes, the sound is pleasant, overall it’s not bad, but you need to get used to the keyboard after using it at 100%.

Yes, the information on the label indicates that the product is an original Machenike keyboard. It is very good in terms of size, weight, and construction. Just be a little careful and it will look like new forever. In short, it is very good and I highly recommend it. It comes with factory information and the Machenike label. It was well packaged in the box, with information about the manufacturing and the keyboard itself. It is very comfortable and I have no regrets. I highly recommend it.

Amazing keyboard, works perfectly in games. Unfortunately, on the PS5, there are a limited number of games that can use the keyboard and mouse, but they are perfect.

The keyboard is top-notch for the price, BT WiFi or wired connection, keycaps are nice but I had to replace the letter keys for convenience with a different layout, overall I can highly recommend it.

It works perfectly, very lightweight, typing with a pleasant sound, and very beautiful, great value for money 👍 The Bluetooth also works perfectly (and lasts a long time because when you don’t use it for a few minutes it turns off, but as soon as you click the key it turns back on).

It arrived within the expected time and so far everything is working well. The only issue was that the software was a bit difficult to install, but it has color options in the keyboard shortcuts, so everything’s fine. I got the version with the blue switch.

Too beautiful, to change the colors use FN2 + 9
to change the LED style, press FN2 + 8

It has excellent typing feel; unfortunately, it’s not ABNT2, but with the correct configuration, it can be used almost like a 75% keyboard. The sound is very good and it seems quite durable.

Very good, everything came in order, it has tri-mode functionality, so you can use it with an extra cable that comes in the box, with a 2.4 GHz dongle or via Bluetooth. It also works for mobile devices, for those who want to play with a keyboard on their phone.

Very good product, nice looking and cheap, strong LEDs, good quality switches with soft clicks. If you’re unsure whether to buy it or not, buy it immediately. In the future, I will do the foam and tape mod and lubricate the switches, which would bring it to the highest level. I already recommend this product; it’s optional but highly recommended for those who want a better typing experience.

A keyboard for the price delivered more than expected, I thought the delivery was quite fast, the delay was more due to the postal service in Brazil, but other than that, it’s a great product with various color effects and software as well, everything arrived in perfect condition 👍🏼

Excellent keyboard, good battery life, 3 connection modes, sturdy and heavy, the included cable is of high quality.
Small but works perfectly, some keys only work with shortcuts, usually FN, FN2 + some key, for those who are used to it, it’s easy to learn.
The light ones are fantastic, with at least 10 different lighting effects and the possibility of editing some of them with solid colors. There is an official program from the brand for more advanced editing.
Hot-swap without screws, satisfactory quality switch.

The product is truly amazing, it delivered everything I expected based on the reviews online. I got it with the red switch, and the sound is extremely relaxing and addictive. I’ve tested it in games and its precision is also great. I recommend it.

I recommend the product and also the seller; everything arrived perfectly. I will buy another unit as a gift. The photo is random because I’m not at home at the moment, but I want the coins to make another purchase, haha. The product fully matches the photos in the ad and its description. Good purchase.

The top has arrived, I’m already using it, it’s very light, you don’t even need to press the keys hard, just a light touch is enough to respond.

I’m using the Machenike K500 B61 with brown switches and it’s been good for everyday use.
The brown switch provides decent feedback with a subtle click sound — it doesn’t disturb you in a home office or at night. It’s cable-free, offers a stable connection, and the detachable 1.60m USB-C cable solves the issue for most desks (an extra cable is a good upgrade).
The RGB looks much nicer in person than in the photos, and works perfectly with the default effects, even without installing any software (complete plug and play). The weight of the keyboard provides good stability on the desk.
Solid value for money, I recommend it to anyone who wants a decent keyboard without spending too much.

Perfect. Excellent cost-performance ratio, zero noticeable delay (at least for me). Very good and consistent construction. Quality keycaps. There are definitely better keyboards out there, but the construction of this one really catches my attention, it’s truly very good.

Nice to type on for a compact keyboard, it feels solid even though some of the plastic seems cheap. The blue switches are quite clacky as expected. Includes onboard rgb controls which is nice and has worked with macminis, windows and a game console. Good value for money and quite comparable to my more expensive keyboards. The rgb flickers a wee bit like a fluorescent. Shipping was very fast.

It’s a great keyboard, delivers a lot for the price. It has a very fast response, very good construction, it’s beautiful, and its RGB, being fully customizable, makes the keyboard even more attractive. But even with the RGB turned off, it’s very nice. Apparently, it will last a long time working. I have no complaints so far. I recommend the product.
