Name is kind of misleading or I got the wrong product

The keyboard is compatible with the clear holy pandas. Does feel nice. Found out that I did not get the GK64X, but the GK64 Lite. No Bluetooth, but it still does have cable capability.

Mediocre at Best

This was the base to the first keyboard I ever built, and the keyboard I have currently fell back to because I adore the 60% layout. Whenever I got this keyboard, it honestly was very straight forward in building. It is plate mounted, so there is 0 flex, which was expected, but something that I did not expect was how loud the pinging in the keyboard was anytime I would type. After a lot of loving, completely replacing the stabilizers, and taping and foaming up this keyboard, I have gotten it to something that I can deal with. I would not recommend this keyboard unless you are getting it for under $50 like I did, since there are just so many MUCH stronger, budget base keyboard kits

Solid starter board

It's a solid little kit. I used this for about a year and didn't have any issues

Decent for the price

Stabs need a bit of help but pretty good overall. I do like the split space bar option as well.

Overpriced for Current Market (Bought on sale for $40)

I think that there are other products out there that are more worth while to buy than this one, especially if there is not a sale ongoing.

Plastic case that has a lot of empty space in the back
Stabilizers with loose fitting stems
No switches
No keycaps

$80 is a steep price to pay when the RL Kludge and other budget boards are offering more for the same build quality.

Good hardware held back by terrible software.

The keyboard itself is great. Everything about it feels and looks great when it comes to the hardware. The built in RGB profiles are fine if you just want the rotating color spectrum / obnoxious rainbow or basic RGB key press animations (with LEDs off until key is pressed.) The software for RGB control and customization, however, is terrible. It's very difficult to use, clunky, confusing, unclear on what settings do what. It appears there is no way to have a static color that temporarily changes color of an individual key when it is pressed, and no way to use the built in button press animations with a static light. There are also no custom profiles that I can find for download and no real tutorials on how to use the software, aside from a handful of videos on youtube from people who are equally as confused about how to use the software but are stumbling their way through figuring it out. That being said, I'm hopeful that the software gets better or this keyboard becomes supported by QMK. Until then, I can deal with the stock RGB profiles or just not use RGB at all. The keyboard itself is worth a buy unless customizable RGB is a dealbreaker for you. If that's the case, I can't recommend it.
