Operation

The keyboard is a tad smaller than most regular gaming keyboards and it’s really designed to be slim, easy to use and effective. The keyboard itself looks very sleek and very simplistic. It has all the media buttons you need to maneuver your way through windows applications without having to start them but the key most important to me is missing, the mute button.

The keys are very responsive and they feel a bit heavy at first but once you get used to it they type really well and you each key reacts the same. Sometimes you have a couple of sticky keys or ones that are less responsive, but this is not the case with this keyboard. Although it’s smaller than regular keyboards it still types just as great as a regular keyboard and once you get settled into the positioning of the keys than you’ll typing blind in no time.

The only difficulty I had with this keyboard was the positioning of the directional keys right below the enter key. I now and then press the up key instead of the enter key. But apart from that it works just fine, in game or during regular usage.

The Everglide DKTBoard is something different than the Razer Lycosa we looked at a while ago. The DKTBoard is much more humble, its design is sleek and simplistic. The blue led lighting makes it stand out a bit but apart from that it looks like any other small sized keyboard. But the quality is good, the keys are responsive and the led lighting shows through the keys and around each one to make them readable and very usable in the dark. Especially useful when you’re a LAN gamer and you’re in a darker environment. The DKTBoard does everything right, except for the missing mute button and the directional keys being so close to the enter button.  This is a great keyboard for just under 50 dollars, which makes it a very attractive keyboard if you’re in the market for a new gaming keyboard without all the whistles and bells.
