Review: High quality keyboard. Unexpectedly great. - I've had this keyboard for three years and I use it for everything. It is my daily driver for both work and recreation. I've had many keyboards from old IBM heavy clackers, to dome-switch Dells, to gamer-y RGB mechanicals (from another brand), to hand-lubed custom swappable keyswitch types, and this HyperX Alloy Origins Core is my overall favorite to date. It's very solid, reliable, has a consistent smooth and lightly tactile key action (I got the aqua switches) and pictures don't do it justice. It may look like just another black RGB keyboard but the feel, weight, minimalistic design, and lighting quality in-person all feel premium. There is a little rattle from the space bar stabilizers but that's nit-picking and can probably be solved with lube. The well-placed rubber feet and heavy weight keep it from sliding around. The braided USB cable is removable. The TKL is my favorite version of this keyboard not only because it strikes the right balance between size and the keys I most use, but also it's understated appearance with the TKL's black on black HyperX logo. With the bright, programmable RGB lighting it can do wild gamer style but can also pull off looking clean and professional. The keycaps that come with it are not PBT but they are high quality. They have a smooth texture and show fingerprints to some degree but they do not wear down. The font is clear and not obnoxiously gamer-y. Again it hits a balance between understated clean and gamer glitz. After years of constant use, the WASD and spacebar keys still look and feel as good as the rest of the keys without the uneven wear and glossiness that commonly develops with other keyboards. One of my favorite features is the look of the backlighting. Many premium mechanical keyboards do not have backlighting and ones that do often have unevenly lit keys or fonts that have hotspots that just look cheap to me. Not this keyboard; it has the most evenly lit key fonts I've seen. And this keyboard can go bright when you turn it up. The included RGB software is ok. I had no problems with it but understand others have. Good news is you can download up to three different custom lighting profiles into the keyboard itself, so you DO NOT have to have the software running to enjoy custom lighting, animations, or macros, if you are into that.
Review: Solid, Compact, and Great for Gaming - This is a really solid tenkeyless keyboard. The build quality feels premium and the aluminum frame gives it a sturdy, durable feel. The keys are responsive and satisfying to type on, whether for gaming or everyday use. The compact size also frees up a lot of desk space, which I really like. The RGB lighting is bright and customizable through software, and it looks clean without being distracting. This is my second HyperX alloy keyboard and would definitely recommend. The sound is nice, not too much as some other mechanical keyboards. USB-C cable connection is a nice upgrade from the previous HyperX keyboards. You won't be disappointed with this.

## Features

- HyperX mechanical switches: The key switches are custom-designed to be a balance of responsiveness and accuracy, featuring a short travel time and low actuation force. They’re also reliable, rated for 80 million keypresses with no loss of quality.
- Full aircraft-grade aluminum body: The aluminum casing keeps the keyboard structurally sound and stable when the action gets intense and the game hangs in the balance; battle after battle, night after night.
- Ultra-compact TKL design with detachable USB Type-C cable: The sleek tenkeyless form factor gives you more space for rapid mouse movements, especially in desktop setups that are too tight for a full-sized keyboard. It also has a detachable cable so it’s easy to take on the go.
- RGB backlit keys with radiant lighting effects: HyperX mechanical switches feature an exposed LED for brighter, more luminous RGB lighting.
- Advanced customization with HyperX NGENUITY Software: Customize Game Mode, take greater control over lighting effects, and set up your own macros.
- Three adjustable keyboard tilt angles: Adjust the two-step keyboard feet for three different angle settings (3°, 7°, or 11°), whichever makes your wrists the most comfortable.
- Onboard memory for three profiles: Create your own custom-designed lightshows, save them directly to the keyboard, and take them with you on the go.
- Game Mode, 100% anti-ghosting, and N-key rollover: Ensure that all your keypresses register and that you’re not accidentally taking yourself out of the game in key moments.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High quality keyboard. Unexpectedly great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic mechanical TKL
*by M***R on June 3, 2021*

I bought this with the HyperX blue switches to replace a Das Keyboard Pro 4 with Cherry MX Blue switches for work (I am a programmer). I loved the Das, it's a solid workhorse and the clicky cherry blue switches are so satisfying, but it's huge and I wanted something smaller so that I could position my keyboard directly in front of me without pushing my mouse way off to the right. Feel - When I got this keyboard, I put it next to the Das to compare the HyperX blue switches to the Cherry MX blues. There is a slight, noticeable difference. I would say that the cherry blues are _slightly_ crisper, but the difference is negligible. The HyperX blues are still plenty clicky and satisfying. I got used to this keyboard very quickly. I probably wouldn't have noticed any difference if I didn't have them side-by-side. No complaints here, it's a joy to type on this keyboard. Noise - Yes it's loud, that comes with the territory. The volume is comparable to the Das... however... I read other reviews that complained about "pinging" and didn't know what they were talking about. This wasn't a problem with the Das even after years of use. However, in the past few days (after a month of using this keyboard) I noticed that some keys, particularly the Tab and Ctrl keys, make a "pinging" noise after being pressed. It's not as loud as the normal clicking noise of the keys and it depends how snappy and hard you tap the keys, but it's there. It doesn't really bother me but I could see how it might grate on some people's nerves. You could always just turn on some music. :) Design - I love the compact form. There is no wasted space around the keys to needlessly take desk space. The key layout is the same as what I'm used to minus the number pad, no funky layout to make it more compact or cram in extra keys. The spacing feels slightly different compared to the Das; I guess the keys are slightly closer together? Not a big deal, I got used to it in maybe a week or two. It lacks USB ports to plug in other devices, but this wasn't a big issue for me. Like any other mechanical keyboard it is a bit tall and I highly recommend getting a wrist rest like the Glorious Gaming wrist rest (don't forget to get a TKL size). Lighting and software - This was low on my priorities, but I have to say the RGB lighting is cool. This keyboard is VERY BRIGHT. It has 4 brightness levels other than off (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%) but even on the lowest setting at 25% it is quite bright. However you can dim the brightness to whatever level you want with the software. The software, despite all the complaints in other reviews, seems fine to me. It gives you a lot of flexibility for layered colors and effects that are very cool. I have no problems with it other than I wish it allowed you to load the settings from your keyboard to tweak them after you save them to the keyboard, but it does look like it has profiles that you can save and load in the software. Summary - This is a fantastic TKL layout mechanical keyboard that I would recommend for work or games. The blue switches are comparable to Cherry MX blues. However, if you can't stand the "pinging" noise on some keys then you may want something higher quality.
