Acepha- KM07U-Hidden gem-Incredible value for what it is priced !
The media could not be loaded. Incredible value for money.1. Price: For what it is priced at Amazon, id easily call it the best True mechanical keyboard in the Budget category. It even beats branded ones out there. It is probably the cheapest one on Amazon with true removable mechanical switches and RGB lighting in the keys as well as the border zones. No semi membrane or non removable gimmick with this one. It is indeed a real mechanical keyboard.2. Features: This keyboard is bombarded with features. It has full RGB lighting on the switches and the outer zones with various effects. The switches are Outemu blue, which are closest Chinese clones of the German Cherry MX Blue. The actuation force , response time and the feedbackalong with the actuation time is the same as cherry MX blues. They are tactile, very clicky and you get a heavy audible feedback. The springs aren't too strong nor too weak. The keyboard has a USB passthrough and a 3.5mm passthrough for Headphone Jack and Mic. Also included in the pack are a bunch of extra Outemu blue switches and a key removal tool.3. Build quality: For it's price, this keyboard is solid. It is not built like a tank nor does it contain any aluminium alloys or other metals. It is made of durable heavy duty plastic and doesn't bend much. The plastic build is a step below the metal builds and is also not the lightest, but it is solid. The keycaps aren't the strongest I've felt but they are decent. They aren't dual shot injected PBT, but are laser engraved ABS which is understandable at this price point. Overall, I'd give it a 4/5 for the build. The keyboard wire is also braided.4. Functionality and software: The keyboard itself is feature rich and you will need the software (downloadable on their website online) to program macro keys alone. For RGB controls, you do not need the software as you can do this by keyboard's keys. The software interface is very simple to use. For everyday use, it is excellent.5. Switch feel: overall, the switch feel is satisfactory. The keyboard is one of the noisiest I've ever used , but in a way, the taps are satisfactory. It is not well suited for office use especially when you share an office space. I am not sure if it supports O rings for dampening the key stroke noise if necessary. The lighting can be entirely turned off, either with the keys,the borders, or overall, which is a very handy feature if you do not want to use this at the office, to avoid distraction. The Outemu blue switches (according to their maker) are rated at 50million keystrokes , which neither you,me or anyone would ever reach. Although, the consistency and durability will only be revealed over time as the reviews for these Outemu blues are a love or hate thing with other keyboards. The key switches are stabilized and feel very stable with almost no wobble. I have a Razer Huntsman Elite (clicky- tactile flagship-Purple optomechanical), a Blackwidow Chroma V2(clicky tactile second gen-green), a Blackwidow Ultimate(clicky tactile green stabilized), A Gamesir GK300 (clicky tactile TTC Blue) and a gigabyte Force K83(clicky tactile German Cherry MX blue). As a huge fan of classic clicky tactile switch design, I'd rate this Acepha mechanical keyboard on par with the Gamesir keyboard(TTC Blue). It definitely doesn't feel as good as the Cherry MX Blue K83 or the Razers, but is extremely well built for it ludicrously cheap price. I'd easily recommend this over them all for this price.Overall, this is a huge win. Unless you plan on spending 100s of dollars on expensive mechanical keyboards, this is the best. You wouldn't be disappointed. 5 Stars. Bang for the buck.

I LOVE THIS KEYBOARD
Amazon's 5-star rating of "I love it" is exactly what I would say about this keyboard. The keys feel amazing, the click and sharp (although my roommates don't exactly like it), the lighting is lit, the extra ports it gives are awesome, and it feels like it wasn't cheaply made. I really like having the extra usb port for a wireless mouse since it puts the dongle closer to the mouse, therefore reducing lag (just a quick heads-up though: in order to use the extra usb port on the keyboard, you have to plug in a second usb input from the keyboard to the computer; the same goes for the sound ports, you have to plug in cords from the keyboard into the slots that would normally be used for these functions). The keys and lighting around the frame are awesome, but I wish there were more options for the lighting around the frame other than just solid color and color rolling. One other thing I wish this had is modular cords. Two usb cables and two 3.5mm cords take up a lot of space, especially if you don't plug some into your computer, so beware if you plan to use this to its "fullest." Other than that, this is an awesome keyboard and typing on it is an absolute joy. While the switches are not Cherry MX Blue, but Outemu Blue, it is hard to tell the difference unless you've only ever typed on Cherry switches.

Son loves it
So, I got this for my son for Christmas as he loves my keyboard, but did not want to spend the money, as he does not take great care of his stuff. (Typical teenager) I got this one as it had all the stuff he wanted. He is a key banger, when he plays games or is typing out an Essay. He loves the colors and the options to have it morph and move across the board. Lots of color options and effects.I waited to write this to see about quality and if it lasted this long with him using it, it is well worth the money.

Decent keyboard, but 5 keys died after 2 weeks. Buy a better keyboard.
Came in 2 days later than it said it would be here, which wasn't much of a problem. When the box arrived, it was in terrible condition. It was so bad you could peek inside the box without even handling it. There was no padding inside the box to keep the product from bouncing around. I am a programmer, and used this keyboard for about 2 weeks before a vertical row of keys went out and no longer work (5 keys: F8, 8, I, K, and M). You get what you pay for, and this was a waste of $40. I will be looking for a refund and will not buy another. I am giving it 2 stars instead of 1 because, while it lasted, it was a decent keyboard. Pictures attached as proof.EDIT: Refund complete.

Click, Click, Click!
This is very nice keyboard that feels good to use. The color patterns are plentiful and vibrant, and you have the option to turn them off entirely if you're looking to tone things down. Capable of waking my parents up from a dead sleep with its incessant clicking, this product earns itself an 8/10.

Great if it works
This keyboard is amazing. It feels great with wonderful clicky keys and it has some of the best color and color modes you can get for this price range. The free software it runs off of works great and is easy to use. The only problem I had is that I had no red color in the top line of my keyboard, so no reds, oranges or purples in the entire top typing row, which is kind of a killjoy for me and I got no response from Acepha customer support. This keyboard is a steal, so if you get one that isn't defective out of the box, you'll absolutely love it, (I know of someone who had no problems at all with this keyboard), but be aware at this price range you do not get the kind of quality assurance you find with a high price, name brand keyboards.

Best keyboard out there
I bought this keyboard for my son in May of last year and it is still working great, no keys have stopped working and the lights are still perfect. He absolutely LOVES this keyboard (this keyboard was only $39.99 when I bought it) he uses it everyday and we couldn’t be more pleased. This keyboard is definitely worth it.

What they didn't tell me....
This might be a great keyboard but I will never know. You need 2 USB ports and a place to plug in a pink plug and a green plug. Sort of look like headphone plugs. So I can't use it.
