8BitDo Retro 87 Mechanical Keyboard with RGB Backlight, Bluetooth/2.4G/USB-C Hot Swappable Wireless Gaming Keyboard for Windows and Android - Xbox Edition (Officially Licensed)

great keyboard for your OG Xbox Themed PC setup!the only thing i wish was different, is the lettering on the keys was black or the keys were less see through. as its hard for me to see at times what key im looking at with the RGB lights on no matter the color or brightness, especially at certain angles or quick glances to make sure im on the right keys(mostly in gaming). so i just leave it off or use the mode that illuminates the key you just pressed.i like that you can use it as a true wired keyboard in the off mode, or 2.4 wireless. Bluetooth is a nice added connection option for those who would use it too.Clear plastics on electronics is making a comeback! and im here for it.

Great keyboard, very retro and I love the Xbox theming. Switches are a bit loud, but feel wonderful. I have no use for the bigger accessory buttons the keyboard came with, but they were a cool addition. Looks great on my desk!

The 8BitDo Xbox keyboard is an excellent piece of hardware—its keycaps offer a satisfying tactile click, it features a variety of backlight options, and it delivers fast, responsive performance.

My wife has spilt soda, water, Slurpee, and whatever else my 3 kids have added, and this thing still works great. I love the option between Bluetooth and dongle so you can use it on a console and PC with a simple turn of a knob, my only complaint is that the Xbox button doesn't do anything on an Xbox console. App is ok and at least on my pc resets my setting every time I launch it but there is a bunch of color options accessible from the keyboard itself. Volume knobs is nice addition as well and super buttons are nice if you use them.

The media could not be loaded. I’ll be the first to admit. I was HYPED when I say this for pre-order. But I waited to see what the reviews said before I bought it. I knew 8bitdo was a quality company from others but I’ve never owned a device from them. I also bought the halo edition Xbox ON RELEASE so I really wanted this thing to be good.The reviews were poor in the beginning. Most were about the software being trash and the rgb not working or being stuck on the brightest setting which washed out the letters making them unreadable. I felt this couldn’t possibly be true and that there had to be something missing. So… going against the reviews I bought one. Here is my journey:Upon opening, this thing was built rock solid and sounds excellent although I had to get used to having a loud keyboard because I’ve had quiet keyboards for at least 20 years now. The box and cable were all high quality too.When I plugged it in, I had the issue where the rgb wouldn’t work when following the directions. I had to go to the website to find the software because it wasn’t really obvious. When I downloaded it, I still didn’t have rgb. I believe I then went into windows settings for rgb control and it said I had to have firmware v1.5 to run it but my firmware was at 1.3. I am writing the all from memory two weeks later so the exact version may or may not be correct. After hitting update firmware, I was told 1.3 was the latest available. So I decided to give it a nights rest.Next day, I opened the software and 1.5 was available to update and once I did, everything worked as advertised!The rgb settings are great and allow lots of customization. The analog volume button is ok. It will go down many times when winding clockwise. The signal switcher is great when cabled. The Bluetooth works fine although it will lose connection sometime to my pc, but this may be on my end because it’s had some notorious Bluetooth problem. I haven’t tested the 2.4ghz dongle but it’s been a reliable option over many years so I assume it works as expected.Hopefully this balances out the large number of negative reviews early on and helps others get a great keyboard.

It's a nice keyboard, I can see why someone wouldn't like it because it's gimmicky, but it actually has some cool lighting settings and works well enough as far as I can tell, and has its own software, if you're an Xbox fan, it's worth the money in my opinion

The spacebar is a bit clunky, but the keyboard is fine otherwise. I will be putting my own switches in but the aesthetic alone is quite nice. I highly recommend you swap the super button switches as well as they aren't very intuitive for any games outside of a rarely used keybind. I have mine set to mute and deafen in Discord/Teamspeak and that's all I would really use them for until I get a pair of more responsive switches.

Keyboard is great. Key switches sound good and I didnt have any issues with the software or anything. I got both this and the matching mouse and while I loved the keyboard, the mouse at high polling rates gave me lag issues on my computer. something to be aware of if you want the whole set.
