This keyboard is easy to type on and comes out of the box with white/blue color illumination. The build quality looks good. This is better for windows pc, but I am using it on mac for work. Check the sound on Razer website or youtube before deciding. This has the optical version and clicky, it looks pleasant to look at an type for long hours. My only trouble is the synapse 3 software (only compatible configuring app) with this keyboard does not have a mac version yet. So you have to live with the default out of the box configuration. You can re-map few keys using Mac keyboard options so I switched the function of window keys etc to match the Mac layout. I am hoping they launch Synapse 3 soon for mac so the full configuration can be leveraged.
