Steelseries Apex Pro Keyboard Review

Introduction

There are many brands who produce peripherals to try and tempt you to part with your hard-earned cash, and anyone who has had to purchase a new device for their system will understand the myriad of options available. One of the few companies that has been consistently producing high quality peripherals whilst also managing to keep innovating is Steelseries.

You're probably most familiar with them from their Rival mouse range, Arctis and Siberia headsets or even the stone cold hall-of-fame classic that was the Sensei mouse. Their keyboard range has been a little more 'out there' with their models flitting between the robust and fairly simple models such as the Steelseries 7G, through to the insanity that was the Steelseries Switch with its entirely changeable keyboard layouts.

More recently they have been producing a range of keyboards under their Apex label and it's the range-topping flagship Apex that we have for you today in the form of the Steelseries Apex Pro. It has all the usual modern keyboard features such as RGB lighting and USB pass-through, but it also has a few tricks up its sleeves of its own. The key switches themselves have an adjustable actuation point, whilst at the top right - following on from the hugely successful Rival 700 - there is an OLED display. Let's not get ahead of ourselves though and tell you rather than show you when we can do both. Onwards.
