Mechanical keyboards utilize a different type of key switch technology for a more durable and unique typing experience. The Red switch features a linear travel with no tactile bump. This can be beneficial for users who don't need the tactility of other switches. Additionally, with close actuation and release points, Red switches allow for easier double-tapping. Unlike Blue switches, these do not have an audible "click" mechanism, allowing for a quieter operation. Noise generated from this keyboard will be from the key either springing back into place or "bottoming out" – making contact with the back plate after a particularly hard press.

The Ultimus RGB is built with a sturdy and durable metal frame and internal plate. This ensures it stays in place during intense gaming moments and is less prone to damage.

Equipped with RGB backlighting, the Ultimus supports millions of colors and multiple lighting effects that you can choose from to fit your preferred aesthetic.

Thanks to built-in multimedia and function keys, the Ultimus provides you with quick access to frequently-used settings.

The Windows Key Lock prevents accidental keypresses from interrupting your gaming session.

The Ultimus RGB has a 1000 Hz polling rate and a 1 ms response rate for fast and accurate command recognition.

[N-Key] [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This keyboard has everything I was looking for. The RGB, the build quality. The weight of the it keeps it in place during even my more intense playing. The RGB colors are so vibrant and totally seamless making my gaming experience a cut above other keyboards. HyperX's own red (linear) switches are smooth for your gaming pleasure. I love the three options to adjust the keyboard angle too. Overall this is an excellent keyboard for gaming and I would highly recommend it for any gaming level. 5

[1 ms ] It’s a very high quality keyboard and it’s also fun with the RGB colors. You can download a control app to set up color schemes. The keys are also backlit making it easy to use in dim conditions. 5

[Mechanical] This keyboard gives you a nice typing experience. The keys have a good feel and are well lit (although I was told that you can't fully reduce the lighting, you can make it nearly invisible). Some complain that the cap key doesn't doesn't indicate that you've actuated it, but there's a bright light on the upper right that removes any doubt. The key sound is nice, but maybe a little louder than I expected for Brown Switches. Make sure you understand in what ways you can and cannot customize this keyboard. 5

[Windows] I didn't buy this for gaming. I bought this so I could easily see the keyboard (letters light up) and the keys feel like that of an electric typewriter (learned to type on a manual typewriter, then switched to an electric). The keyboard has some weight to it so it doesn't slide around the tabletop. Ended up buying one for my husband and he loves it also. 5

[N-Key] This replaces the previous model that lasted over 5 yrs in spite of a lot of abuse. This replacement version is working perfectly too. 5
