Ant Esports MK3200 V2 Wired Mechanical RGB Backlit Gaming Keyboard with 104 Anti ghosting Keys & Outemu Red Switches-Black

This keyboard is definately one of the best keyboards I have used. I need to type documents for school and play games fairly often. This was my first mechanical keyboard and I cannot compare it to other keyboards but I can definately tell it is not a scam and that mechincal keyboards are objectively better than membrane keyboards.This keyboard is a TKL design which means it doesn't have the number pad and takes up less space. This is very helpful to me as I don't use the number pad and it saves space on my desk to put my notebook around so I can make notes or refer to it when needed.This keyboard also supports many features other "Gaming" keyboards would, such as locking the windows key so that you do not accidently click it while playing video games. It can also open the "Grove Music Player" , "Calculator" and other desktop tools from teh funtion row of the keyboard which is unique to only this keyboard from what I have seen so far. I have also seen a significant improvemnt in my typing speed. After taking a typing test with both I went from 40 wpm to 60 wpm but this wasn't a controlled test and I only did one type race from each keyboard.This would all tell you that this keyboard is functionally perfect I would say. However, there are few nitpicks I have with this keyboard.The font for the switches are very bold long and have gaps in them making them appeal to an "edgy" audience. I wouldn't use this keyboard in front my boss if you work at office. The keyboard also has the ANTESport logo on the Spacebar and near the arrow keys which is a little too extra.The keyboards aren't RGB. Each layer has its own colour. For example, the top row has red, the one bellow it with the numbers has green, then the third row with QWERTY has orange. This cannot be changed and this mixed colour doesn't match my colour scheme of Black, White and Blue This wouldn't be a problem but there is no option to switch the lights off.But before you buy this, please do know this won't make you a better gamer. Objectively there are tools which would help you perform better but I would say at least for FPS games the mouse is something which I would put money towards. If you have a mouse with a good sensor, please consider buying a mouse bungee because this keyboard does nothing to help you play games other than being small and leaving space for your mouseTL;DR-Mechanical Switches are good and improve your typing speed-Small Keyboard as it is TKL which saves space on your desktop-Supports useful features such as Windows Key Lock-Increased my typing speed from 40 to 60 words per minuteHowever,-Font isn't good-Lights aren't RGB, only light up one colour-Logos are shown too muchAlso NoteThis keyboard won't make you a better gamer or help you perform better in FPS games at least unless you are trying to save more space for your mouse.

I bought the **Ant Esports MK 4500 Pro TKL** because I needed a wireless, multi-device keyboard that fit my budget. It supports wired mode, a 2.4 GHz USB mode, and can connect via Bluetooth to three devices. The keycaps feel solid, and the black-and-white color scheme looks fantastic. It also came with two faceplates—black and yellow—but I was supposed to get three. After contacting Ant Esports customer support about the missing white faceplate, I didn’t get any response, which was disappointing.As for the keyboard itself, the keys felt great, the sound was satisfying, the RGB lighting was on point, and the connectivity was perfect for what I needed. It even has a Windows/Mac mode switch, which is super useful. However, around the 6-month mark, I started noticing issues with keys like **T, F, and W** either not registering or registering twice, which made typing frustrating and impacted my gaming performance. Since this keyboard has hard-soldered switches, I couldn’t fix it myself.The problem worsened between the 9th and 12th months, right after the warranty ended. Some keys stopped registering altogether, making the keyboard unusable. I ended up salvaging the keycaps and switched to a wired keyboard from another brand, which has been working fine since.In hindsight, if your budget allows, it’s better to go for keyboards above ₹5000 from reputable brands. I wouldn’t recommend Ant Esports or other budget brands after this experience.

As of writing this, I am getting my new keyboard tomorrow.This has served well as my first Blue Switch mechanical keyboard but now, after 17 months of rigorous use (gaming & professional) the whole left side of the keyboard (keys like 1,2,3,A,S,W, Z, Caps Lock, Tab, Alt, L Shift etc etc) have stopped responding as intended. They either need to be pressed 3-4 times to have effect or just 1 press registers as 3.Sadly the warranty is for 1 year only. As long as it is under 1700 or so, I'd recommend it to any beginner/intermediate mechanical keyboard user whos tight on a budget. 4/5
