Genius KB-G265 Gaming Keyboard - FunkyKit

 

Last time Genius was at our dinner table, they brought with them a mouse & webcam combo. This time, however, they've presented us with a nicer dish for our eager consumption. This is the G265 gaming keyboard: This site uses Akismet to reduce spam....

Lights! ; 20 anti-ghosting keys ; Independent media keys ; Good price

Not mechanical ; Not too many extra features ; Squeaky spacebar

I promised an explanation for my previous statement, and I shall give one. The title may be a bit misleading. Make no mistake, the G265 is indeed classified as a gaming keyboard; however, that’s mostly because of the usual stuff, i.e. the lights and...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

it's a keyboard

 

a solid keyboard. nothing has worn off, and all the keys still work. I'm pleased with the performance and I don't think you will be disappointed with it if you do buy it. that said, you could probably do a little better with your $35

performs well as a keyboard ; USB ports on the back. I haven't used them at all (my comp has 8 built in) but they might come in useful to some ; long cord is nice ; backlight means you can use it in a dark room (I know, terrible for your eyes, don't...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Very Functional for such low $$

 

I'm an Electrical Engineer who plays games fairly regularly, and I was given a G105 gaming keyboard for Christmas and did not like it so I bought this instead because it had the following ; Volume Up/Down controls ; Silver colored WASD LRUD keys (looks...

The only complaints I have is that the backspace button is small. The enter button / backslash buttons are different than most keyboards, normally backslash is above enter, but for some reason the designer decided to make the enter button huge (which...

Wonderful!

 

wire can be moved to come out in different places of the front, works great, looks really nice too! If you're looking for something cool looking without going way over budget this is really worth it

Very nice.

 

The unit looks good and the key action is smooth. This replaced a lighted keyboard that had sticking keys.

defective

 

can't play any games it disconnects as soon as i login. checking forums i found this to be a common issue with this brand. In hindsight I should have read more reviews before buying.
