Gamakay tk75v2 with pegasus v2 switchesPros :* Very silent* Good tactile response and doesn't feel too heavy for long typing sessions* Good compatibility with mac and windows* Initially I thought the tft screen was just a gimmick and would be useless, but after using it, I feel this makes the keyboard complete and the display is very sharp, bright and responsive* Good build quality [ even though the body is made out of plastic it feels very premium, better than aluminum keyboards at the same price ]* Good and stable connectivity* The keycaps are dye sub pbt, they have good thickness and don't feel cheapCons :Haven't found any yet, will update if I find somethingWho should consider this keyboard ?* Office users* Roommates who ask you to be quiet* People who use macos, this is better than keychron k2 [ functionality, build quality and performance ], Not having function row keys when using macos [ like 67% keyboard ] is a pain as there will some struggle with the number row keys and function row keys* In general if you are someone who prefers silence over a thocky or a rainy keyboard, although it sounds like a membrane keyboard, the typing experience feels like a mechanical keyboard

Tldr; Bad manual, software is laggy, but overall great value. good build quality. Silent keys.Feel: 10/10Sound: 10/10 (I got the Pegasus silent keys, absolute dream)Size: 10/10Macros: 10/10 (takes a bit of messing around with)User Manual: 6/10 (Needs work)Why I bought this keyboard:I want to preface this with that I am not a "keyboard head". I don't know what is "thocciest", but I imagine this would be "creamy". I don't want to spend 4 hours lubing my switches. I just wanted a keyboard that felt good, was somewhat portable (hence 75%, though would have prefered 60%, but it was hard to find something that came prebuilt with silent keys), and quiet. I plan to take this to work, as now we are required to go back to the office soon, and you have to use a flexible/unassigned desk, it is hit or miss that you get a keyboard that is not grimy. Also I have gotten used to my Corsair keyboard feel, so the low profile ones are a bit less comfortable now.I received this keyboard today. Let me tell you, it is amazing how quiet it is. My mouse click is 3 times as loud. The keyboard feels great! I wasn't too thrilled about the caps, especially the lighter color, but they are growing on me. The software is ok at best. It is slow, and take some time to get used to, but once you figure out the macros, you can modify it pretty easy. Love macros on my old corsair. If you are into the gamer LED look, you will be pleased. It has a good range of options and customizations directly controllable on the keyboard. (NOTE: To change the mode, press FN+\, the user manual isnt too clear) I prefer not to attract attention and feel it looks a bit tacky, so I preferer white backlight or no lights. Its easy to change light settings directly with the keyboard function keys. I don't use the HOME, PAGE UP, or PAGE DOWN Keys so these are what I programmed my Macros as. I also changed to volume knob press function to pause/play music as the default is mute/unmute. Macros DO require the software though.I had issues when trying to connect Bluetooth. I connected fine the first time, however my battery seemed to hold no charge. It displayed 1% on the windows Bluetooth setting app, and would disconnect if I removed the power cord. And when I tried to connect it to another device it seemed to fail due to batter not lasting long enough to register connection. I contacted their customer support but had no answer, so I planned to return. BUT THERE IS HOPE. . .I was able to fix this issue! If you are having similar issues try these steps. I am not sure which steps solved this.1. The switch on the back of the keyboard should be pushed to the far right side if set down (Closest to the mouse if you are right handed)2. Reset the keyboard. FN+ESC for a couple second.3. Hold the FN+1/2/3 for a 3-5 seconds. It will slow pulse red on the middle right light, and when released it should pulse faster.4. Connect via TK75 5.0 (TK75 3.0 will not show you your batter life)5. If you are having issues with 5.0 vs 3.0 unpair from your computer and repeat the steps above.Hope that helps! I was about to return this and write a terrible review, but I was able to fix the issue. Battery now shows 100% and I wrote this review with THIS keyboard!I will update if any other issues come up, but as of right now I love this keyboard. If you like building keyboards then maybe its not for you, but again I am not about wasting time lubing keys for 4 hours.

The GK GAMAKAY TK75 V2 Silent Mechanical Keyboard is an outstanding choice for gamers and typists alike. The 75% layout provides a compact design without sacrificing functionality, and the GamaKay Pegasus switches offer a smooth, silent typing experience. The inclusion of a TFT screen is a unique touch, providing quick access to settings and customization, while the hot-swappable keys give you the flexibility to try different switches. The keyboard offers multiple connection options, including Bluetooth 5.0, 2.4GHz wireless, and USB-C wired, making it incredibly versatile.However, the keycaps, though PBT and durable, might feel a bit slippery for some users, especially during long typing sessions. Additionally, the Bluetooth connection can sometimes experience minor lag when switching between devices. Despite these drawbacks, it remains a feature-packed and stylish mechanical keyboard that excels in both performance and aesthetics.

I am not an expert on mechanical keyboards, I just was looking for a good starting board to get into this hobby. I wanted a good build quality, silent switches, and hot-swappable key switches to future-proof. I have the Phoenix switches, which feel very pleasant and are very quiet.Pros: Very well built, the keyboard is heavy, comes with everything included that you need. It is plastic (i knew that before buying), but the plastic finish is very high quality. I personally like the included silent phoenix switches. The keycaps are a personal preference, I don't mind them. They feel high quality and are easy to type on, I just wish they were shine through. The volume knob feels high quality and is very satisfying.Cons: Like other reviewers have mentioned, the software that goes with this board is not the best, but it is useable, and once you set it up the way you want to, you don't have to use it again. I have yet to figure out how to set up the macros, but I don't need that, so it's not an issue for me. All I needed was to remap the function keys to brightness and media controls, which the software can do. Unfortunately, you cannot map the keyboard brightness or lighting effects to a specific key, but the built-in key combos are easy enough to remember. Fn+up/down to change keyboard brightness, Fn+enter to turn keyboard backlight on/off. Notably, Fn+\ is to change the lighting effect. This is incorrect in the included user manual, which says it is Fn+,Overall, this feels very high quality for the ~$90 price, I am satisfied with my purchase.
