Review: Excellent Keyboard So Far - This keyboard has been a joy to use so far. It's pretty heavy and feels really solid. The USB cable is braided and appears to be high quality. Not being a gamer, I didn't realize how much difference there was between the various switch types (brown versus red versus blue, and so on). As it states in the description, this keyboard uses the red switches, which don't click at all. That just seems a little... weird for a mechanical keyboard, but you get used to it pretty quickly. The RGB lighting looks good. Unfortunately, Lenovo didn't put in any keyboard shortcuts to change the mode - you have to use their software for this. Not a huge deal at all, especially when using it with a work computer, but it would have been nice. The factory default color is white throughout the keyboard, with (to my eyes) just a hint of blue. It's subdued and pleasant. A key cap puller would have been a nice addition. This is vastly better than a keyboard with membrane switches. I highly recommend it!
Review: Recommend - Great feel. Excellent software. Enjoyable experience and worth the buy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Goldie Locks Keyboard
*by J***0 on August 30, 2020*

I had a basic Dell usb multimedia keyboard with two usb passthru ports, but I didn't like the typing experience on the low profile keys. What I did want was a full size keyboard with larger (perhaps mechanical) keys, a usb connected, backlit, with a usb passthru port(s) to connect the receiver for my mouse. I didn't want a bluetooth keyboard because I run two computers through my monitor's built in KVM switch and the connection would be undependable or delayed. As a casual gamer, I was also interested in what features might be helpful there. While shopping, I quickly realized that the keyboards that met my criteria were mostly all $100-$250 gaming keyboards and I wasn't going to spend that. Besides, most of them were on the bleeding edge with buggy features or required talking to the cloud to use, ugh. None of them seemed like a good value to me, even Logitech of which I am a general fan. By chance, I ran across this Lenovo Legion K500. I must tell you that I am a former IBM product designer and have a soft spot for the ex-IBM brand. And we will never forget those perfect IBM keyboards of old. So the potential and aesthetics of this product immediately caught my eye - clean, high tech, understated elegance with superior ergonomics. It was usb connected and offered backlighting (even in custom colors). It also included multimedia keys. But no usb port - oh well. Last but not least, it was a full sized keyboard with mechanical keys that would deliver the superior typing experience. All at about $65. So I gave up a usb passthru port to save $100+. I have to tell you, it has fully met and exceeded expectations., even the software makes sense and works great. Although it's all plastic, it's a quality build that looks and feels much more expensive. It's a beautiful addition to my desktop. I've fallen in love with it. It's a tremendous value. Pros and Cons Pro - Tasteful, understated design Very ergonomic Good typing feel & quiet Plastic, but heavy, very solid build Lots of grip on the desk Works style wise in a business environment Software is very easy and good for what it does Software works on both Windows 7/10 Remembers customization settings locally Backlit keys with 2 levels of brightness and off Works great in a dark environment Dedicated multimedia keys Game mode can disable certain keys Flat or tilt Comes with an easy on/easy off palmrest Nice quality braided cable Numlock/Capslock indicators Con - No USB or headset passthru Only one color at a time/one color per profile Custom macros are a little clumsy Very slightly lite on the key pressure, but okay Multimedia keys don't light up Doesn't light up numbers on top, just symbols Poor instructions in the box No mention of software or where to get it (Google - Legion Accessory Central) Color gimmicks are a useless distraction
