Cherry MX switches.
Lacks any extra features.
The MX-Board 3.0 can certainly do a job – just a very basic one. Sadly it is just lacking many features gamers desire with a mechanical keyboard.

Work and gaming keyboard from the king of switches.
+ Full aluminum case ; + Doubleshot keycaps ; + Detachable USB cable ; + Quieter than most mechanical keyboards
- Audible ping noise when typing ; - Silent switches feel mushy ; - Keycaps use an unattractive font ; - Cable compatibility is limited ; - It’s possible to damage the keyboard removing keycaps
The Cherry MX Board 3.0 S does what it’s supposed to do: lets you type on a mechanical keyboard without bothering the person sitting next to you. It even adds customizable RGB and a nice aluminum case for flair. Unfortunately, a mediocre typing...

Today we're checking out one more, a business model, the MX Board 3.0. This flat top full Qwerty board isn't likely to grab your attention if you're a gamer.
– Solid Build Quality ; – Fast and Silent typing if laptop keyboards are your thing ; – Great for professional typing needs ; – Price
– Lack luster packaging could mean a damaged board upon arrival ; – Not great for gaming ; – Price
The MX Board 3.0 is not your top shelf, key feature after key feature, RGB everything flagship keyboard. What it is is a solidly built, solid performer, and a workhorse. I wouldn’t go so far as to call it utilitarian, but it is certainly wandering down...

Sensitive keys. Very nice typing experience.
Would be nice to have the option for wrist support
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
As an arthritis and EDS sufferer, my fingers get sore on a "normal" keyboard in minutes. With this keyboard I can pretty much type indefinitely. It's that nice.
It's a bit pricey for a keyboard; that said competitive for a mechanical.
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Excellent no frills mechanical keyboard.
Nothing so far
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Butter smooth keys with consistent resistance to each press throughout the downstroke makes typing less tiring and more consistent. My first mechanical switch keyboard and very much worth it.
It lacks visual refinement and looks rather chunky rather akin to a Soviet industrial style.
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Cable is fully detatchable - so if it breaks, just get a new one. Unusual for keyboards. Much better than any membrane keyboard.
It is a mechanical keyboard, but it doesn't have the depth of something like a Das Keyboard. I thought I was getting a bargain (top end mechanical for the price of a top end membrane) whereas I actually got my money's worth.
Consumer review (reevoo.com)
Good positive typing with mechanical keys
Even it uses red key switches which say it quieter than blue key switches, it is still noisy to type
