Customers like the sound of the keyboard. For example, they mention it's surprising quiet and light keys for a mech kb, has a very satisfying key strike sound, and is a great choice for low profile quiet mechanical keys.

Customers have mixed opinions about the keyboard size. Some mention that the keys have a good amount of sensibility, the typing experience on this keyboard is top notch, and the flat keys seem ok.

Customers are mixed about the quality of the keyboard. Some mention that the build quality is awesome, and it really is a premium product. The chassis is well built with chamfered edges, and the keycaps are great material. However, others say that if it weren't for the really bad quality control for the high price, this keyboard would be great. The stiff switches and the poor quality keycap's stick to your fingers, making the keyboard feel very cheap.

Customers are mixed about the comfort of the keyboard. Some mention that it was reliable enough, feels great to use, and the low-profile Cherry MX switches feel good. However, others say that every keystroke felt like rubbing sandpaper against cement, making it one of the scratchiest keyboards they've ever used. The keys on the keyboard do not feel as smooth compared to the MK750 model, and it just doesn't have a premium feel.
"...I love the feel and sound of the low-profile Cherry MX switches. It's also just really really really ridiculously good-looking...." Read more

That being said Cooler Master included a full key cap kit which this board with allow the user to swap from chicklet keys to a more traditional keyboard cap design which was unexpected and amazing!!! Props to Cooler Master as I wasn't aware they would do this and wasn't expecting to see this! Bonus points to Cooler Master as I have purchased many items from them over the years and was again impressed by this decision they made when they didn't have to! Very Awesome and it made me want to write a glowing review in their honor! :)
Added after reviewing the item page: FYI - It is advertised with 2 sets of key caps! This wasn't expected as I read early review articles on this device from review outlets and I don't think this was originally a thing... this shows me Cooler Master listened to the feedback in the newer model SK 652 and decided to include key caps to buyers of this SK 650 model I think... cheers!

The package shipped promptly and already came with the alternate keycaps which I have to say, never have I ever changed those out so quickly with the alternatives. What everyone is saying about how the flat keys can be an uncomfortable and error ridden typing experience is true. Because they're all flat and clustered together, you will more likely than not type an additional letter by mistake. Swap them out, don't look back (props to CM for including them and listening to feedback). Because the keys are a bit closer together than other keyboards I still find myself accidentally hitting certain keys on accident but I'm sure I'll get used to it.
The keyboard itself is very sleek. Low profile compared to a standard mechanical but still a bit taller than other keyboards. The chassis is well built with chamfered edges and still lightweight. The typing experience (once keys are changed) is pretty comfortable minus one thing; there's no kickstand. Even the most basic membrane keyboard will have kickstands on the back to angle the keyboard even a little. This one, does not so you might need a wristpad and something to place underneath the keyboard if you're used to that.
As far as the keys and volume its a very quiet keyboard. Great for typists and a bit of gaming. If you're a heavy typer you may hear a bit of "twanginess" but definitely not as bad as other low profile keyboards I've played with. Lighting can get BRIGHT, but fortunately you can change the colors to your liking with RGB and different brightness/intensity settings. No dedicated media keys but you can use them with the function key.
Overall good solid and aesthetically pleasing keyboard. Definitely buy it while it's on sale since at best, I'd have to say its a midrange board to play with.

Quizás el único pero que le pondría es que no tenga patitas atrás para subirla de altura, ya que es totalmente planito, y pues una ruedita del volumen, pero esto último ya es mucho pedir.
En general es muy buen teclado, tiene buen acabado, se ve muy bien estéticamente, tiene buena respuesta y es entrada tipo C con cable trenzado, para mi gusto no es difícil escribir en él, he visto varios comentarios sobre que las teclas son muy pegadas por lo que te confundes de teclas fácilmente, la verdad es que no, es cuestión de acostumbrarse al cambio de un teclado con diferentes tipos de teclas y switches, para mi gusto es muy bueno.

Un ultimo commento, scritto con la tastiera precedente: i led, con relativa personalizzazione e l'estetica in generale sono da 5 stelle
Nice to type with removable chiclet keys. Wish Coolernaster provided spare chiclet keys with rough texture surface for gaming. USB C to A cable is removable for easy mobility. A velvet keyboard cover is also provided which is nice. Overal a good buy at its sale price. Get it while stocks last and before prices return to retail.
