Satechi SM3 Mechanical Keyboard for Mac and Windows, 108 Keys Full Size with White LED Backlit, Wired and Bluetooth for Mac and Windows - Light Gray/White

This keyboard is not fancy; not a lot of bells and whistles, but it is also not basic. Just an amazingly functional and comfortable everyday driver. It is attractive in a minimalistic sort of way, including excellent WHITE backlighting that rivals the keyboard on my MacBook Pro's built-in keyboard. I never have trouble seeing the key legends in the dark - not too bright, not too dark. The feel is a nice compromise between a linear smooth-action switch and a brown switch with a very slight "bump" at about half way through the travel. It isn't quite silent, but it is not loud either. A comforting "thock thock" sound coupled with the tactile bump makes this the most accurate keyboard I've ever used. And build quality is good - it isn't a tank, but it doesn't feel cheap either. Again, the whole package is "just right". A highly recommended, handsome workhorse.

Works well, no need for drivers and no automatic bloatware install. I love that. It connects quickly and has good features to save power, such as turning off the backlight after inactivity. The keys have nice feedback and are comfortable to use for longer periods. The key switches are like brown switches and provide feedback with low noise and average weight. The build quality is good, they used metal on the frame, which feels sturdy. It has a luxurious feel to it. My only issue with it is the placement of the backlight button. It is next to the backspace/delete button. If pressed by accident you need to press it a dozen more times to get back to the setting it was on.

I've been using this keyboard for a couple of weeks now. I'm really enjoying it. It is very well built, connects to my Mac easily, and has a great typing experience. The brown switches have a really nice click feel and sound which is just about perfect. Highly recomemnded!

I seriously like this keyboard. I think it was very well thought out, designed, and built. I use it switching between an HP laptop (windows 11) and a 2019 Macbook Pro (Sequoia) with the touch of a single button. Flawless. The keys are 'clicky' but not 'slappy' if that makes any sense. I have no complaints about the battery life. Overall, I would buy this keyboard again, and recommend it to anyone. That said, and the reason(s) for 4 instead of 5 stars, are as follows:1.) Lower corner edge keys (Cntrl) could use a 'bumper' or raised 'notch' to keep from accidentally keying these with the sides of you hand. Satechi has done a wonderful job maximizing the available footprint of this device, but with those corner keys mildly exposed per se - you can easily find yourself pressing Cntrl + (who knows?) what. If you're aware of this then it's no big deal, but could be tweaked in future iterations.2.) Keystroke resistance. this device is great to work with however the actual resistance is a a shade to the light side (for my personal taste). There's great feedback from the keys etc. but I find it just a bit 'too' easy for my [optimal/desired] taste and prone to 'collateral keystrokes' if I'm not paying attention. Maybe it's just my sloppy hand positioning.3.) Key backlighting. The backlighting works great with no dark or areas that I've seen. While the whole 'light show' patterns available are nice - they're not exactly practical. I either want backlighting off, or on (yet dimmable - which this keyboard does). The whole scrolling though star wars light show patterns to get to my steady on mode does nothing for me.So the combination of those minor factors cost this review a star. Hope this review helps anyone considering a purchase. Again - I highly recommend this keyboard. Just know there's a few (potential) nuances you may or may not appreciate.

Can you love a keyboard? Yes. The answer is, yes. I've purchased and returned 4 keyboards in the last month, when you have combed reviews, poured over features... I have simple needs. Not crap. Light colored, and enabled to use on a Mac set-up. Major bonus is the light feature. And I get it now. This thing is so freaking fun to type on. It’s like clicky, satisfying butter.
