Really great as keyboard type switches like Cherry purely the preference of the user, it's me mx-red and black! I love the programmable macros without need software, although as stated in a previous review, the character limit is low. Small least the purple version LEDs for caps lock, FN and FN are white. A digital lock where FN key combination for the number pad would have been a plus for the special characters, that's true too. I just love this keyboard I have is two mx-two red, white LEDs for a home and a purple leds for the job!
