Code V3 87-Key Illuminated Mechanical Keyboard - White LED Backlighting, Black Case (Cherry MX Clear)

Great typing experience, very solidly made. Little too loud for an office environment when proper up on its legs, not too bad when flat. Very minor complaint. All round a solid keyboard.

Tolle Tastatur, aber kein Layout wählbar. Ich hatte damit gerechnet, dass es ANSI ist, aber die deutsche Beschreibung lädt geradezu zu Fehlkäufen ein. Ich nutze das Code Keyboard bereits seit der V2, daher immer wieder empfehlenswert.

This keyboard really fills a niche in the market which is to just have a high quality mechanical keyboard that isn't flashing lights or branding. It's black, it types very well, feels great, and has simple back lighting for night time use which shine through keycaps. This was purchased for someone else and they got it with MX Clears. A bit heavier than what I use but if you like that I can say the Clears go really well with this board. I use Browns for tactile, silent reds for low noise, and Box Whites for clicky. Pros: 1. Overall good solid keyboard built to last. 2. Clean design without heavy marketing. 3. Good simple LED back lighting. 4. Feels good to type on which is the most important thing for anyone buying this kind of keyboard. 5. Little to no ping unless you put your ear right to the key. Cons: 1. Price. It's a bit pricey compared to some of the competitors. 2. ABS Keycaps. Easy enough to fix really but that kind of adds to an already high price.

I've only had this for 10 days at this point, but so far I am really enjoying it. Everything is what you would expect, the keys are very responsive, very satisfying to type on, and not too loud. My keyboard before was a Razer, with Razer's "Green" Switches (MX Blues essentially), and it was a little too loud. This is much better, with the added bonus of not being as loud as the Razer was. I have three small issues, that don't effect the star rating. - The back of the keyboard has 5 way routing for the cable, with little pieces of plastic alternating to keep the cord in place. The cable that comes with the keyboard is a little too thick for the routing, and as I've carrying the keyboard to and from work and unplugging the cable, those little plastic pieces are basically tearing this cable to shreds. I recommend these cables (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07DC54RV7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1_) As they are just thick enough to be held in place by the plastic tabs, but still are very easy to route and unplug from the keyboard. - The LED lighting is fantastic, and there are 6 settings of brightness. My one wish is the lowest brightness was actually more DIM. It sort of starts at bright, and just moves brighter and brighter. There's no DIM lighting. - Last small thing, and this is personal and not a con of the product, but more of a warning. The MX Clears have 65g of actuation, and I didn't think they'd be that much different from the 50g needed for my Razer, but I actually can feel my hands getting a little fatigued after typing for a while. I may order and try the MX Brown version, and see which I like better. I will edit this post in the future if anything new comes to mind, or my opinion changes for this keyboard.

This is my second WASD keyboard. My first was the 60% with MX browns, which I really loved, but I eventually decided that a TKL would be better for me. I decided to do something different and go with the MX clears on this one and I like them, as they are a little heavier than browns, but I still do enjoy the browns. The backlighting is great without being too fancy and you can toggle it on and off. Keycaps are ok and haven't show any wear or tear yet but I'll probably upgrade them soon. Also, this keyboard uses USB C which is great. Overall, I definitely recommend going with this if you want a nice mechanical keyboard.

This is my first mechanical keyboard so I can only compare it to "normal" keyboards, but there is absolutely no comparison. I am not a gamer but I login to ~ 100 servers a day and do everything from entering the "top" command to writing scripts and editing large configuration files. I don't make nearly the amount of typos I used to. The build quality is exceptional and the Cherry MX clear switches are said to be quieter than most, and they must be because nobody in the house complains I woke them when I have to work in the wee hours.
