## Description

NA

Review: Great gaming keyboard!! - Nothing to dislike about this renewed keyboard. Plays just like it was out of the box fresh from Steel Series. I have the mouse and headset, from Steel Series, for my son and he said the keyboard has the feel of brand new. Saved us a few bucks over the one on the Steel Series website. But I must say, buy the extended warranty if offered to be on the safe side. Still saves you $$$. He has been playing the keyboard solid since Christmas with no issues.
Review: Excellent Quality - Ordered this refurbished keyboard, and it feels and works as if it was brand new! Love the feeling of the keys and the RGB customization!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it 1ms response time?**
A: For keyboards, yes.

**Q: Is this a apex pro tkl because it says it’s a apex 7 but the picture is a apex pro tkl?**
A: Buyer beware. I was disappointed when I received the apex tkl and it was a refurb received in a generic QWERTY keyboard box. With no paperwork. I bought 3 different electronics during the holiday sales base on Amazon recommendation deals,  they were “renewed”. My fault for not reading to the last line on the description, but buyer beware. Amazon should put this at the top of the sales information. Hope you have better luck.

**Q: Does it come with numpads?**
A: I just received this keyboard and mine did have the Num pad, idk if that was a mistake on their end or not?

**Q: if i were to purchase this keyboard will i get the full size or the tkl**
A: I purchased this item long ago and I received the TKL and not the full size. If I were you right now, though, I’d skip this deal and buy a brand new one which is only about $16-$20 more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Quality

### ⭐ Avoid Steel Series, Terrible Software and Connection
*by G***D on February 15, 2025*

Man oh man is the software and connection terrible. My keyboard required an update, and the update fails every time at this point all the keys work but the keyboard constantly flashes red which I am sure you understand makes it practically unusable... I have tried everything to fix it. I have probably uninstalled Steal series gg and reinstalled it more time than Linus lol. This has been for months; I bought a much cheaper keyboard that works great and has the same features but to humor myself I plug back in this keyboard and try to fix it again to no avail. I have had issues like this with every steel series device I have purchased when I originally made my switch from console gaming to PC. I have since systematically eliminated every one of the devices because of software and connection issues. Today is a great day as I have finally gotten replacements for all the steel series devices I have gotten and felt vindicated to write this review. My advice to all of you considering any steel series device it to avoid this company like the plague unless you want hours of frustration and an unnecessarily lighter wallet. There are many other less expensive brands that produce better products. If you want to take the risk and listen to the obviously paid for hype, good luck...
