    Buy Steelseries Apex 5

    Wanting to choose a keyboard, my choice fell on the Steelseries Apex 5. A very good keyboard however that emits a lot of noise despite the switches I chose. Thanks to the LDLC service, I sent it back with a very fast return service.

    Great, if you don't hesitate to turn it around

    One of the keys on the first copy I received became defective after two months. After returning it under warranty, no more problems.

    Great keyboard

    After scouring the test sites, I decided on this SteelSeries keyboard.
    Let's say it right away: the finishing touches are exemplary. The keyboard looks really nice, the OLED screen is a bit gimmicky and the LED lighting is really, really good.
    I was apprehensive about the key noise, but in the end, the click is well marked without being intrusive.
    The packaging is classic and the presence of a magnetic wrist rest is an undeniable plus.
    I give it 9/10 because I find the software that drives the whole thing a little light and the explanations are sketchy.
    As for LDLC, they are as usual perfect from start to finish.
