When we look at the QuickFire Rapid-i as just a mechanical keyboard first, we are in no way disappointed. CMStorm has kept to that same level of super sturdy construction that you cannot twist more than a degree or two with your best try. We found no iss...
Solid, Great layout and spacing, Wonderful blank modding canvas, White LEDs work with most any scheme, The keyboard has a game built in, Lights are the most ‘pure' lights I've experienced yet, Braided cable offers plenty of length (1.8 meters/70.9 inches

Cherry Brown has a little bit stiff than Cherry Red. If you think about it, when you say “Rapid-i” you'd imagine that it's for a keyboard where user can hit faster keystrokes. I like the Cherry MX Red and Cherry MX brown, though brown gives a more ‘contro...

Abstract: Samsung Galaxy S4 [AT&T]Up until very recently, keyboard buyers had to choose between two important features: backlighting and mechanical switches. Thankfully, that's no longer the case. The Logitech G710+ , which paired Cherry MX brown switches with LED ...
