Update at (about) 18 months: my daily driver work keyboard (a 2014-vintage Razer Blackwidow Tournament) started losing keypresses on me, and I have ended up moving to using this daily at work for the past couple of months. It's holding up quite well. Other than the odd cable (and not working with standard ones) I'm very pleased and am considering picking up a 2nd so that I can leave this one at work and still have one ready to travel.
Update after almost a year of use: I've had this keyboard out of the country with me three times (including two two-week long work trips) and a couple of domestic trips as well, and the combination of light and thin, a conventional TKL layout, and a good mechanical feel has been everything I expected. This packs so much easier than the thicker 84-keys and I'm more productive with the layout... and the slightly bigger footprint hasn't been an issue at all. It feels a little fragile, and I ended up picking up a neoprene sleeve for it (on edit I can't add a product link, but there are a ton of options) and even with that added thickness it is easier to pack than the older 84-key ones.
I also gave it a try as a daily driver at work, and it was fine -- not enough better than my regular brown key one to be worth putting the wear and tear on it when I want to keep it for travel, but it worked fine for daily use. For blue switches it's quiet, but that might be an issue in some very quiet offices.
Update: Received the keyboard with a bad USB cable, which the vendor shipped a replacement for. Keyboard works great now. The review below is based on about a day of substituting for my regular desktop keyboard.
First, if you're looking for a general-use keyboard for home use, unless you've tried a regular mechanical keyboard and thought "I wish this had a shorter keystroke"; then you probably should try one of those first. This is very close to as comfortable, though, and hugely thinner/lighter. There are TONS of good 87-key (or 104-key, if you like having a number pad) mechanical keyboards, and I don't have one I can recommend as the ones I'm using are all 3+ years old and replaced by newer revisions.
Where this keyboard excels is in its portability; a regular 87-key keyboard is going to be 1000g/2lbs+ and much bulkier. I've previously been using a couple of "75%" keyboards (82-84 keys -- basically a "squashed" version of the regular 87-key tenkey-less layout) and they never seem to be "quite right" because of the cramped layout. While this keyboard has a larger footprint than any of the 75% keyboards I've tried (see picture) it is also much, much thinner for packing, and it's actually lighter than either of the 75% keyboards I've reviewed previously.
So if you want something light and compact to travel with (or throw in your backpack for coffee shop or campus use, etc), this is the best keyboard I've yet found, and I'd recommend it over a 75% model unless you have really tight footprint concerns (stereo cabinet, world's smallest desk, etc.)
The two 75% keyboards I'm comparing it two that I've actually used are the DREVO 84 Key Gramr, Brown Switch and the Qisan Blue Switch Backlight keyboard 82-Keys
Compared to the other two keyboards:
* This feels slightly lighter weight and less solid than the (much heavier) Drevo, but much sturdier and with none of the key wobble of the Qisan
* Standard 87-key tenkeyless layout. That's a huge plus.
* the keycaps are smooth, and relatively flat on top (vs. a sculpted top on both the 75% models, and a textured top on the Drevo)
* this Havit model has a removable cable, but it only works with the supplied cord. The supplied cable seems like good quality, and is very light.
* This model with cable is lighter -- 530g on my kitchen scale with the cord attached -- than either the Qisan (560g, not counting a cable) or drevo (740g with permanently attached cable). So you're getting a more standard keyboard with a lighter weight.
All of them have back-lighting and some kind of better-than-usual rollover; neither is a feature I care about, and on all of them the back-lighting is dead easy to turn on and off, and all seem to remember the off setting when plugged in.
Overall, this is the best travel keyboard I've encountered, and I plan to be using it on the road soon.
The one disappointing thing, given the removable cables, is that it seems to only work with the manufacturer cable. While I was waiting for the replacement I tried several cables I already had -- most micro-USB cables have too much plastic around the plug to fit through the plastic guard around the socket at all. I had one that was small enough, but which was not recognized, and I took another and shave the plastic grip area down until it fit. Didn't work.
If I could give one piece of advice to the manufacturer, please make the Version 2 of this keyboard with a *regular* USB socket :)
For a second piece of advice, if there's a low profile brown switches to match this, please make a version of this with the brown switch -- I'd buy that too :)
Photos are in comparison to the Qisan model -- showing both how much thinner this is, and the relative difference in their width.

The things I really like about this keyboard:
* Low profile, low keycap height, and short keystroke distance -- Ok, three points in one, but taken together, these attributes make typing quickly feel very effortless compared to a more traditional keyboard that has a longer keystroke distance and taller keycaps.
* The Kailh low profile blue switches feel fantastic under the fingers, to me. They are similar to MX Blues, but maybe with a lighter activation force, and of course the much shorter keystroke travel distance. People talk about how with MX switches they learn to type faster by not having to bottom out the keys; well, with the short travel distance of these keys, you can go ahead and bottom out the keys and not have to second guess how far you have to press OR waste effort on unnecessary keystroke distance.
* Good build quality -- It's very light but there's no give that I can detect when typing normally. If the legs are extended and you press down firmly at top middle edge of the keyboard, it will flex a bit, though. I'd say that it's not a concern or issue during normal use.
* No software/drivers needed. Basic keyboard functionality (including lighting controls) is all plug-and-play. Software is available, though, and provides additional hotkey/macro assignment functionality, as well as letting you set custom lighting patterns. Note that this model only has one color (a kind of light blue/teal), not RGB. The lighting controls affect the pattern and effects, not the color, of the keys.
Things I'm indifferent to, on this keyboard:
* The keycap font is different from most other keyboards. The capital characters are printed to the right and above the lowercase character, instead of directly above it like with most keyboards. This seems to bug some reviewers, and I can understand why. However, I don't think it's a big deal if you're primarily a touch typist.
* Lighting -- I normally just keep the lighting turned off entirely. If I'm working at night, I may turn it on as a constant glow for the backlit keys, but that's all the use I have for it. The keyboard itself has like 10 different lighting patterns/animations and brightness settings. They're nifty, but to me, it's just mostly a gimmick. Frankly, I'd be perfectly happy with a cheaper model without any backlit keys at all.
Things that kind of bug me about the keyboard:
* It lacks dedicated media keys, but you can replicate the function via the software-defined macros. HOWEVER, the macros/hotkeys are only available when "gamer mode" is active (toggled via Fn+PrntScrn). The problem is that while gamer mode is active, the regular key function is not available if it has been overridden via a macro or hotkey assignment. For example, if I have F8 assigned to the Mute function, it means that as long as gamer mode is on, F8 will always turn Mute on and off, instead of actually registering F8 being pressed. If I need to actually use the F8 key as itself, Ineed to turn off gamer mode first (or assign the macro to another less-used key). That's a lot clunkier than having a dedicated media key, or even being able to do use a quick Fn+key combo (the Fn+key combos default to managing the lighting effects when in non-gamer mode). It hasn't been a huge problem for me personally, because I only want the Volume Up/Down and Mute function, and I just assign them to the 3 least-used keys on the keyboard, and there haven't been any app/game conflicts yet, but I feel its kind of a bad design.
* The feel of the keys is great, BUT it is possible (if you press very slowly or VERY lightly) to get the key to click without actually registering the keystroke. From what I can tell, the actual activation point is maybe 1mm past the click point. Again, typing normally, I don't feel this is a huge issue, but its worth a mention. If you're a SUPER light and fast typist (perhaps if you're used to flying on MX Reds or MX Speed switches) it may throw you off. For reference, from taking various speed tests, I averaged about 104wpm at 94% accuracy, and none of the errors were from "light strikes", that I can tell (the errors were simple fumbles or typos on my part).
Some other reviewers have mentioned issues with the keyboard breaking or malfunctioning after having it for some time. The keyboard I have is still new to me, but I haven't had any issues with it out of the box. If something happens down the line, I will update this review to reflect my experience. For now, though, it's my new go-to keyboard for home desktop computing and gaming!

Box packaging is well made, almost Beats product level or Apple packaging. The keys feel good and they are matte rubber. I know they are prone to oil and grease. Don't eat pizza, french fry over it please!
Functionality is amazing how much option it has compare to AULA and Redragon. The top plate is aluminum and bottom is plastic; overall it is quite sturdy. Why would you need a tank keyboard like Steelseries 6Gv2? Yeah you can knock someone out with that 6Gv2 keyboard; maybe you need that if you have home invasion all the time.
There is macro mode you can set with this keyboard, great for RPG games.
Good to know:
+ Stock 50% less noisy than Blue Cherry MX (unless you add o-ring rubber).
+ Feel like Blue Cherry MX.
+ Shorter key travel compare to most Cherry MX but longer than butterfly switch (laptop) keyboard.
+ Many lighting setting.
+ Only cyan blue (baby blue) LED lights.
+ You can adjust brightness.
+ There is Macro mode.
+ You can lock the Windows Key for gaming.
+ There is office mode key.
+ You can turn off all lights.
+ Keyboard is very light.
+ Detachable USB is good, you can change it if it got cut or broke or need a longer one.
+ Keycap font is super clean and clear not some lousy AULA keycap font... can't stand reading it.

Took more than 2 weeks to arrive from US though.
- great price for a TKL mechanical gaming keyboard
- lighting effects adjustable on-the-fly without software
- low-profile clicky switches good for typing experience
- minimalistic, saves space
- gaming mode allows for macro keys and windows key lock
- small rubber detachable cable, good for mobility if needed
Cons:
- quality control (the edge of my esc key had a bit of paint scraped off)
- single-shot ABS keycaps
- loud
This keyboard is great for the price and offers a unique typing experience that is good, but definitely takes some time to get used to.
