Review: Is this what being in love feels like? lol - My whole original reasoning behind getting this keyboard was because I wanted to see what the “hype” is about these keyboards from Higround. Well I may have made a mistake because now I want their whole crystal collection. This keyboard feels great typing, feels like typing on jelly because how effortlessly the key strokes are when pushing down on the keys. Talking about the keys/switches when they say this thing is silent. That is not a joke. The only way I can hear the key “click” sound is when my room is quiet and I’m right on top of it. Aesthetics of this keyboard is down right gorgeous. The way the rgb comes through the “opal” keys and the clear case are very bright and vibrant. It’s giving a 10/10. Is the best I’ve seen outta all keyboards I own and have seen. The size and weight of the keyboard took me by surprise a bit. I was not expecting it to have so much weight behind it. Probably has something to do with the quality of the keyboard. At the end of the day, I would say that it’s worth the value for the money that you pay for, example: I own a Logitech Aurora keyboard that cost me around 200 dollars and this Higround feels higher quality than that keyboard. So if you are on the fence of buying a Higround. Get it. I highly doubt you will regret it!
Review: sturdy - first fancy keyboard i've ever bought! the keys are very soft, almost no noise at all, set up was very easy and the wire that they give you to connect to your PC feels sturdy and high quality as well. can confirm that this keyboard stands up well against INTENSE keysmashing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A truly SILENT keyboard
*by K***H on June 6, 2025*

I have finally found a truly silent keyboard! I have been looking for several months for that truly silent typing experience. I've bought and returned probably 5 keyboards claiming to be silent. This one is it! It is compact and doesn't have the number pad or the function keys road, but it gives you everything you need for a quality typing experience. The light feature is excellent and the instructions are very easy to follow. I am so happy with my purchase.
