SABLUTE Large Print Backlit Keyboard, Wired USB Lighted Computer Keyboards with 7-Color & 4 Modes Backlit, Oversize Letters Keys Easy to See and Type, Keyboard Compatible for PC, Laptop

I like working in a low-light environment for a number of reasons, and an illuminated keyboard is a big help. This is a nice, relatively inexpensive keyboard. I am running it on a dual boot Win11/Fedora Linux system, and it works fine with both OS. Things to consider: It is a full-size (3/4" key spacing) keyboard, Type M/ANSI layout with minor variations The space bar is shifted to the left a bit for inclusion of the Fn key (used for lighting settings) The keys are low-profile "chiclet" keys, with very slightly contoured tops and short travel The keys make some noise, not really a sharp click, but still fairly loud The lighting can be changed to any of 7 colors and 7 levels of brightness. It also has a cycle mode that constantly changes colors, which is the startup mode. Lighting can also be turned off. The lighting settings can't be saved (although they are easy to set). All the keys are illuminated the same. There are also indicator lights for locks (Num/Caps/Scroll) The keyboard is corded, with a USB type A plug. It has the typical flip-up rear legs to change the angle of the keyboard.

Very nice, basic, wired, lighted keyboard. I wanted a wired keyboard, and bought a USB extension. I was getting interference from LED lights using a much more expensive small lighted BT keyboard. I like this one much more. The lights color can be selected, or you can have a rainbow, or you can have it pulse when typing (annoying). The lights stay on while there is power to the USB (PC sleep mode), but you can turn the lights off with an easy keystroke. I bought some $9 metal legs to give the keyboard more angle. The large font is also very nice - along with the backlight illuminating the letters. Overall, I like it. Is is a high-performance gaming keyboard? No. But I am not a high performance gamer. I just wanted something to use when controlling my big ol' TV / PC at night in the Family Room. This is absolutely perfect.

I recently purchased this keyboard, which features large letters, 7-color backlighting, bright and dim controls, and 4 different color-pattern modes. You can also set it static to stay on one color. Everything works straight out of the box as described. The colors are vibrant and pretty, and the letters on this keyboard are large, well-lit, and easy to see. All features work well. However, I didn’t give it 5 stars because after one month of use, the keys are already starting to wear off (see photo). The keys are painted, and the letters are created by leaving areas unpainted where the light shines through. Letter wear is the same reason I replaced my previous keyboard, which lasted 3 years before the letters became unreadable. Similarly, I expect this keyboard to last about three years before the painted-on letters wear off and become indiscernible. My previous keyboard, by a different brand, was similarly priced and also backlit but did not offer RGB colors or patterns. It advertised “large letters,” but they were not as large or easy to read as this keyboard. Overall, this keyboard is still a good value. For a similar price to my previous keyboard, this one offers more features and better usability

Works for me. I like the larger keys and letters; it's easier to read. I think it's well-made, and I use it daily in my home office. I have the black with yellow buttons. I like the little alcove on top I think it's for your cell phone or anything you need to have right in front of you

This keyboard is truly excellent! The keys feel very comfortable, and the response is quick and sensitive, making it perfect for long typing sessions and daily office use. What I love the most is the beautiful color effects when using it—the lighting changes create a great atmosphere on the desk and look really cool. Whether for work or gaming, it brings a much better experience. Great value for the price, highly recommended!

Update to the Update: This KB (the replacement) is now useless. It has gotten progressively worse since I left the review (the update) below. Same issue as with previous KB - the keys are just impossible to depress with any non-100% verticle hit (which is impossible, when typing.) Tolerances are simply out-of-fit... the keys are too loose. My other identical KB is still doing fine (purchased a year ago.) Whatever changed, perhaps this can help Sablute to check their manufacturing processes - and, whatever changed in the past year. (Typed this on a different KB, of course.) Not worth my time in even dealing with them, at this point. (The back-lit lighting, still work remarkedly well, though... shame that the mechanics/tolerances are diminished.) I can send this latest one back, Sablute... again - my other KB is awesome. Just offering. Updated: Update: The folks at Sablute reached-out to me for further information. They offered, sent, and I received a replacement keyboard. THIS one is perfect! Typing this reply up on it, atm. Thank you, Sablute for your EXCELLENT customer service - I do realize that, sometimes, a bad-one gets thru. Also - a correction to my previous post: That was the 3rd keyboard I had ordered previously (Forgot that the first met it's fate with coffee/brew spills.) Again - this current, replacement KB - PERFECT. Sablute indeed, stands behind their products. I offered to return the difficult-working KB - they insisted no, and that they would look into improving, further, their manufacturing. Definitely, give these keyboards a shot. They work great for me and my low-light needs (again!) Pic shows replacement KB, at bottom. Original: Prompt shipping. Second purchase of oneof these. First KB purchase - noissues , at all. Bright lighting, and large, EZ to see, keys. As I type onthisone, however , key are loose, and difficult to the touch, some non-responsive - like they are loose in the housing. Space bar (as u can tell) mostly works - I am not returning, as this is for my garage workstation - and I type little on it. I have to make a conscious effort to press... Likely lst one I purchase.

So far the keyboard is everything it was advertised as and serves every need that I bought it for. There is a very slight stiffness when pressing the keys but after all it is brand new and has had no real use time yet so the keys will smooth out the more it is used. Unless your finger bones have been previously shattered, then no one should have any issues using it brand new right out of the box. The illuminated colors perform excellent in a dark environment which is what it was created for by giving bright illumination around the entire base of every key and through every number, letter, and symbol that is on the key. The keyboard has a key for every use or function that I would ever need including a (FN-function key) which many other keyboards don't have. This keyboard is light weight with smaller dimensions (L x W x H) than your older keyboards and that helps at freeing up more space at your work station. I am more use to a larger and heavier keyboard but will have no issues whatsoever transitioning over to and getting use to this keyboard. The usb power cord could be a little longer to prevent any issues with how far someone decides to place their computer from them but for me it is not an issue and my computer tower sits on a low shelf above the floor under my desk and to the right of me. How crisp and clear the letters and numbers come across depending on the color you choose is a matter of personal opinion for every user but for me I like the green and light blue colors the best, but don't get me wrong for the other colors work just fine to. My previous keyboards lasted 7rs and the other 4yrs before keys started to not respond, so if this keyboard lasts me at least 4yrs then it was worth it, only time will tell. I don't put alot of use on my keys by typing away all day every day so I don't see me having any issues with the black surface wearing off the top of the keys for a very long time if it even happens at all. It's a good keyboard and i'm glad I purchased it, it serves me well. ...UPDATE 3 months later: everything about this keyboard is fantastic except a handful of keys that seem to rub on the sides of the holes they protrude out of. When these keys catch the sides like they do they result in the character not getting typed on the screen or double characters appearing because you have to press down hard to get the keys pass the point where they rub. This can be quite annoying and time consuming so I had to retire this keyboard into the spare keyboard pile to be used as a spare when my current keyboard breaks down and i'm waiting for a replacement in the mail. If these keys didn't rub and catch like they do then this would be my #1 keyboard for everyday use because everything else about it is fantastic. Hopefully the manufacturer can address this problem and smooth out the key holes or enlarge the cuts so this rubbing and catching doesn't happen anymore. I had to take away 2 stars because of the key issue. :(

Boots normally, bright, nice responsive keys. I bought a keyboard previously and it would not boot correctly, this one was plug and play no boot issues. I like the keys, they have a light resistance but are low profile. The lighted keyboard, goodness gracious they should ALL be lighted, it's fantastic. I'm going to buy more and replace all my keyboards with this one.
