Regardless, I watched YouTube videos and read reviews and ultimately landed on this one. Let me tell you... it's amazing. Every functional key that you'd see on a Mac keyboard works flawlessly. The feel of the keys is perfect. The Gateron Blue switches are clicky and responsive. The RGB lights are the perfect brightness, not obnoxious like you'd see from other keyboards. In the picture, the keys in the middle were replaced with HyperX Pudding KeyCaps, and the lighting looks even better! I highly recommend this to any Mac user who writes/types all day long. You won't be disappointed.
