This will be my review of the Massdrop CTRL Keyboard from a UK perceptive, so this review will helpful for those who are ordering this keyboard outside the US. Firstly I must say that this is probably the most premium keyboard I have ever used for gaming and typing use and this is coming from a guy who has tried many keyboards. Everything is just great, from the RGB lighting to the keyboard's strong aluminium frame and many other great ascepts. Overall, I'm really glad with the purchase and hope to keep using this keyboard for a long time. However, there are two issues that you should consider when purchasing this keyboard. Firstly, the keyboard's magnetic stands aren't that great. It would regularly fall over to the side if I were to slightly move the keyboard and this can sometime be annoying, especially a keyboard with a hefty price. Another issue is that the keyboard doesn't any physical media keys. This can be quite frustrating as I coming from a Corsair keyboard which had those keys to a keyboards that doesn't and there are cheaper keyboards that are one quater of the price offering those functionalities. Even so, the keyboarhas a little paper saying all the keyboard combination to access the media key. And last issue is shipping which is very important to consider for anyone living outside the US. You'll be heavily taxed to import this item. When I bought this keyboard, I was charge $199.99 for the keyboard and $8.99 for shipping which came to a total of $208.08 (£163.30). After five days passed by, the keyboard arrived to the UK and then I received an email from customs saying that I owe £40.13 ($51.04) to import the keyboard. That was big pain in the ass and has made me less tempted to shop around Massdrop unless it's a special item and I can't get it from anywhere else, like this keyboard. Even with all these mirror issues, I'll strongly recommend keyboard for those who wants a premium keyboard or just wants something unique and different.
