Title: Awesome keyboard
Review: I like the retro look, I’m happy to not have the generic RGB disco whenever I fire up my system and I enjoy the analogue ‘twisty’ dials that work well for volume control. The best thing about this keyboard is the feel and sound. A nice satisfying thunk thunk thunk on all the keys make for a premium feel. The big double button controller thing is a cool little party trick which can be mapped to various key combos.

Title: Love it – can easily switch between laptop and PC so only 1 keyboard required for 2 computers!
Review: Wasn’t sure if I would like the ‘old school’ keyboard, but the Nintendo style appearance sold it to me. Coming from an Apple low profile keyboard it is a different typing experience and I am still getting used to it, with a few more mistypes than usual, but I should get used to it. Saying that, the look is really nice, it feels VERY good quality, nice and heavy, lovely sound to the keys and feels solid with no travel/depression of the keyboard when typing. The thing that I like the most is that I can use it with both my laptop and PC without needing 2 keyboards. I can switch between the wired connection and the 2.5G USB connection so I can type on each computer with the turn of the switch. Really nice for keeping the desk less cluttered. Love it!

Title: 8Bitdo making mechanical keyboards now?!
Review: I really like this; I’ve had a few mechanical keyboards ranging from fnatic to keychron and this is a nice option if like me you’re primarily doing quite a lot of typing. I’ve not used the big red buttons yet to be honest but I like that you have volume control built in. I was surprised by how good the quality is on this really, very nice that you can use it wired or wirelessly. I’m pleasantly surprised! Not sure what kind of switches they are now but they’re pretty satisfying to type with, feels very retro.

Title: A joy to type on
Review: I bought this for the novelty Nintendo look but I was surprised how nice it was type on. Very smooth and a satisfying feel as well as noise when using the keys. I haven’t found a use for the oversized buttons but very happy. However, if you want a quiet typing experience this keyboard isn’t for you and a apple magic keyboard is a better choice.

Title: Good product but problem with the app
Review: I bought this keyboard in the UK on release day and I believe this has been available in the US for quite some time. This keyboard is excellent and well worth the money. The four shortcut buttons are an excellent idea and this is my first mechanical keyboard. The keystrokes are comfy and sound music to the ears. The only problem was when I downloaded the app on the PC, windows malware blocked it and told me it was potentially malware. You can use the keyboard without the app but still, if you need customer macros you will require the app download and I think also for the firmware updates. Please 8bitdo team can you look into this and fix the app ASAP? I believe it should be fixed as the keyboard was released in the US some time ago. And I have also seen other people complain about the app malware issue.

Title: Amazing, such a cool product
Review: Got this as a Christmas present for my partner. They absolutely love it. It is so pretty and retro looking and cool. The keys have a really nice click to them and they aren’t spongy at all.Overall, very impressed with this product, and so is my partner, which says a lot as they’re a professional editor and really know their stuff.

Title: a nice retro style mechanical keyboard with hot swap switches!
Review: Over all I like the keyboard and would certainly not have an issue buying another for my son’s pc.The included switches are fine for me, I like mechanical keyboards, and hit a sweet spot of clicky but not annoyingly so. I like it more than my roccat with MX Black switches, and my off brand keyboard with gateron blues. You can replace the key switches if you wish however I like the compromise of what it comes with.The aesthetics are very 80’s think commodore if they liked a bit of red too. construction is plastic outside with an internal metal plate for weight. Keys are dye sublimation so shouldn’t wear off.Input latency is fine on cable and 2.4ghz receiver, there is a little with bluetooth, but it’s the nature of the beast. I don’t use the giant “panic” buttons, but I could see them being fun for party games.

Title: Pretty amazing keyboard
Review: Upgraded from the ANNE PRO 2 and this one is so much nicer.1. Aesthetic = Lovely. Matches images.2. Keyboard feel = Really nice, feels easy to type.3. Hotkeys/features = I use this on Mac/PC and most keyboards are annoying, as I need to switch the ctrl + mac key all the time. With this I’ve got 2 profiles and can switch between them with 1 button.4. The big buttons are fun, but kinda useless.Overall, very happy.

Review: Love this keyboard. Has both wireless dongle and BT connection types so I can use it on multiple devices quickly and easily. Love the feel and the sound the keys make, very satisfying when typing. Battery lasts quite a long time in my experience with frequent sporadic use. A little pricey but worth it in my opinion. Get it on sale if you can!

Review: The build is all plastic that gives a retro but solid vibe, and the keyboard feels and sounds amazing, otherworldy dare I say… If you like the sound of old keyboards and their feeling you won’t be disappointed. I’m currently typing on it and it’s a one way trip to the eighties… Good times. Anyways, the keyboard really sounds amazing, most sound tests were really not on point, the closest is LTT’s sound test on their LABS website on the product review. The keyboard is surprisingly lightweight (but doesn’t feel cheap at >1kg) compared to an epomaker one that’s a 65%, this one is almost 2 times larger and yet still weighs what feels like 2 times less. I recommend you check all the models before buying though, as there are some new C64 and famicon ones that are really incredible. Doesn’t come with a keycap/switch puller but is hot swappable. Finally, the LED in the corner feels tastefully old school, not like other keyboards with “agressive” very bright LEDs. Only thing that disappointed me is the lack of feets to adjust the writing position, I like a pretty flat one so that’s OK for me but might be a dealbreaker for you.If you like old school keyboards, this is pretty much for you, especially if you like the ‘typewriter’ type of sound with cliky switches.

Review: Gillar tangentbordet skarpt. Hade varit trevligt med svensk tangentbordslayout. Använder det mest för spel och de extra knapparna programmerar jag till paus och liknande.

Review: Per un amante degli anni 80/90 come me questo è uno di quegli oggetti che ti riporta indietro nel tempo.La tastiera rispecchia fedelmente lo stile retrò delle console di quegli anni ma con le caratteristiche e funzionalità dei giorni nostri.I tasti sono in ABS e il suono che emettono è molto bello per chi ama le tastiere meccaniche.In alto a sinistra troviamo due manopole che servono rispettivamente a fare lo switch tra le modalità di connessione con i dispositivi e per regolare il volume del device a cui è connessa. Accanto poi troviamo altri 3 tasti che gestiscono connessione, profilo e settaggi della tastiera. Infine nella parte in alto a destra abbiamo un utile led che ci avverte se la tastiera è accesa o meno e i led di gestione del CAPS LOCK e SCRLK.Nella confezione abbiamo anche i 2 enormi tasti funzione posti su una base in plastica che ricordano quelli del NES. Entrambi sono programmabili dal software scaricabile dal sito del produttore. Troviamo anche all’interno della scatola dei simpatici adesivi da attaccare magari ai bottoni e un foglio di istruzioni che ci permette di configurare la tastiera anche senza l’utilizzo di altri software.Per una maggiore esperienza d’uso raccomando comunque di scaricare il programma gratuito dal sito del produttore.📦 PACKAGINGLa confezione è quella standard sigillata e integra che contiene la scatola della tastiera. All’interno della scatola troviamo- Tastiera Retro- Tasti funzione- Cavo USB di ricarica- Adesivi- Foglio istruzioni🛠️ CARATTERISTICHELe caratteristiche fondamentali di questa tastiera sono la facilità di scrittura che risulta essere molto piacevole e veloce, il suono dei tasti che risulta molto secco non troppo metallico, il layout classico dei tasti che non risultano quindi troppo attaccati tra loro e la possibilità molto vasta di personalizzazione.Non presenta dei piedini posteriori per regolare l’altezza anche se devo dire la verità per la sua conformazione non si sentono la mancanza.La batteria risulta molto duratura in quanto non ha led RGB e pertanto la durata è davvero considerevole.Unica nota dolente a mio avviso riguarda il layout che è di tipo ANSI e non ISO pertanto non sono presenti gli accenti alle lettere e alcuni simboli risultano spostati rispetto le classiche tastiere italiane.✅ PRO- Ottima qualità costruttiva- Possibilità di personalizzare le funzioni della tastiera e dei bottoni- Batteria a lunga durata- Comodi e funzionali i tasti per lo switch delle connessione e del volume- Tasti per il cambio di profilo- Connessione bluetooth e WiFi 2.4 ghz❌ CONTRO- Solo layout ANSI- Non ha il tastierino numerico- Non è retroilluminata🚀 CONCLUSIONETastiera che consiglio per chi come me è un amante dello stile retrò. Design accattivante ma al tempo stesso funzionale e comodo.Può risultare un impedimento la mancanza del layout ISO ma per me che sono stato abituato a quel tipo di standard il passaggio non è stato così pesante.Ottima la possibilità di connessione sia in Bluetooth che WiFi mediante l’apposita pennetta posizionata nella parte posteriore.I tasti funzione sono abbastanza inutili a meno di impostare delle shortcut.
