After testing out the Tecware Spectre 75, moving to this more budget oriented Phantom S was a little disappointing although the price difference explains it a bit. The Phantom S is definitely more cheaper feeling with its ABS caps and less than premium feeling case but being almost half the price of the Spectre allows it to stay somewhat competitive. Its per-key RGB lighting has the LEDs in the north-facing orientation and the shinethrough keycaps are used to take advantage of this so that you can see the keycap legends if you like using your lit up keyboard in a dark room. Over the years I've stopped using the RGB lighting especially when I've had to look less and less at my fingers when typing so the Spectre with no RGB lights would be an even better fit for me. Nevertheless, the Phantom S is a decent way to get a customizable LCD screen, hot swap sockets, a knob, and north facing legends (for those who use shine-through keycaps) at a reasonable price. Especially considering other boards are going for Hall Effect switches while sacrificing aesthetic in this price segment, this more conventional board definitely has a spot, competing with the likes of the old AJAZZ AK820 or GMK67S.

This keyboard feels premium from the first keystroke. The gasket-mounted design gives it a softer, cushioned typing feel compared to rigid tray-mounted boards, and the red linear switches are smooth and quiet without sacrificing responsiveness. The 75% layout strikes a great balance—compact enough to save desk space, but still including the essential keys for productivity and gaming. The TFT display and multifunction knob are standout features. The screen is a nice touch for quick settings or system feedback, while the knob makes volume control and other adjustments fast and convenient. The build feels sturdy, with a clean black-and-grey color scheme that looks professional without being boring. For anyone who wants a reliable, good-looking keyboard that bridges work and play, this one delivers in both performance and design. Read more

This mechanical keyboard is really quite nice! Esthetically, it's compact and the colors are super cool! The little screen to show battery remaining and stuff is very helpful as well! It's lightweight and would make a very useful keyboard if you move around a bit with it. My husband does think it's a little bit small for daily use, but he continues to use it daily so it's not too small! Overall this keyboard rocks! It is definitely a great value for what you get! Wireless mechanical keyboards can vary in price and quality and with this one you can be confident to receive a stellar product! Read more

It's a decent board overall. I've used Tecware boards at work for years and they've always been solid. The build quality is decent. It has a lot of dampening materials, which make it a very quiet board. The included switches are Huano Reds, which are not amazing switches by any means, but they are factory lubed in this board and feel better than expected from a cheap switch. Keycaps are ABS so bear than in mind when deciding to purchase. PBT generally holds up to use better and a lot of boards, even budget ones, will come with PBT caps these days. The board feels lighter than I expected with the amount of dampening in it plus a battery. I have similar boards that weigh a lot more, but I think they are using silicone mats vs the foam mats in this one. I'm not a big fan of the location it stores the Wireless dongle on the right hand side. I'd prefer it be in the back. I'd also rather have the USB-C connection offset to one side instead of centered. Both of those are more a user preference issue though. The slide switch for mode selection on the left is fine, and it's nice to have a sizeable switch instead of the mini toggles many of these boards come with. Lighting is pretty good and there are decent on board controls for many functions with a lot more available in the software. The screen is too small to be all that useful, but it does at least have functional indicators that are pretty clear to read. The knob is also responsive and does what it needs to do. Overall, it's a decent board that supports 3 or 5 pin hot swap switches so it's a good base for customization. I intend to try a set of Akko Creamy Purples in it as I prefer a tactile switch.
