Not a Gamer. Just need a good solid backlit keyboard

Plagued by Microsoft ergometric keyboards wireless that caused my HP laptop computer to add multiple z, t or commas or delete text unendingly I chose to abandon MS KB and buy the HyperX with a USB cable. No longer have problems and can type in low light. chose the one with red keys - easy action - seems very solid. Small enough that I can put in my back pack and take it to work too.

Great mechanical keyboard at a great Black Friday Price

I got a great price on this premium gaming keyboard and it arrived in a week and a half. First time buying from HP and it was great.

Great keyboard and cheaper than competitors.

Seems very well made and types better than my corsair k95 platinum, which is a much more expensive keyboard. Definitely a HyperX fan now.

Amazing Quality

The product was very easy to connect to my computer and to set up the backlight on the keys. The included instructions were very helpful with this. The keyboard feels like really good quality as well due to its metal backing, and the keys feel satisfying to push. The absence of the numeric keypad is helpful in keeping the keyboard lightweight and sleek feeling.

Stunning!

This is such a stunning keyboard! The lights are an added touch. This keyboard feels super sturdy and high quality, it's not cheap! The keys feel wonderful, and have that nice clicking noise when typing. This keyboard also has an adjustable angle that added another level of customizable comfort! I would highly recommend this!!

Awesome keyboard

The hyperX alloy origins core keyboard is super simple and has a sleek design and compact. The keyboard has a good amount of weight to it and the frame is aluminum. The letters are smooth and I was able to sit and write a 30 minute essay and my finger tips were comfortable. I also like using the keyboard with my Xbox one. The software for the keyboard is easy to use. I would definitely recommend trying this keyboard I love that it changes colors and it's super easy to hook up.

This keyboard is a great gaming keyboard. It is sturdy and will not break easily. The keyboard will definitely make a great edition to any gamer's PC.

Awesome keyboard

I love this keyboard so much. I was looking for a keyboard that had a backlight so I could see at night, but I love this one because it is colorful. It is made with high quality materials and works very well, and the keys themselves are very nice to type with. I highly recommend this product to others.

Genuinely surprised

I'm a tech-y person/gamer and have tried many different brands of keyboards and never found one that I actually liked until now. This is by far the highest quality keyboard I've ever used. Its made from aluminium which makes it feel very premium and sturdy when typing and just looks absolutely beautiful. This is a must have for any gamer and I would definitely recommend!

Neat

Very cool lighting. Has nice angles for any kind of table or setup you might have I use it on ps4. Makes it nice I can switch it right over to my PC. Or xbox when I'm done. Seems to be fairly durable which is a must when it comes to gaming. It something were to happen to mine I would definitely be back to get the same one

Solid keyboard, smooth keys.

HyperX Alloy Origins Core Mechanical Gaming Keyboard
The HyperX Alloy Origins Core is an ultra-compact, sturdy tenkeyless keyboard featuring custom HyperX mechanical switches designed to give gamers the best blend of style, performance, and reliability. These key switches have exposed LEDs for stunning lighting with an actuation force and travel distance elegantly balanced for responsiveness and accuracy.

Alloy Origins Core is built with a full aluminum body so it stays rigid and stable when keystrokes are flying, and also features keyboard feet that let you choose from three different tilt levels. Its compact TKL design frees up space for mouse movement in desktop setups where space is at a premium, and it also features a detachable USB Type-C cable for supreme portability.

Customize your lighting, craft macros, and adjust Game Mode with HyperX NGENUITY Software. This powerful, yet easy-to-use program lets you set per-key lighting, layer dazzling lighting effects, and add scores of other personalized touches to your NGENUITY-compatible products.

HyperX mechanical switches
The key switches are custom-designed to be a balance of responsiveness and accuracy, featuring a short travel time and low actuation force. They're also reliable, rated for 80 million keypresses with no loss of quality.

Full aircraft-grade aluminum body
The aluminum casing keeps the keyboard structurally sound and stable when the action gets intense and the game hangs in the balance; battle after battle, night after night.

Ultra-compact TKL design with detachable USB Type-C cable
The sleek tenkeyless form factor gives you more space for rapid mouse movements, especially in desktop setups that are too tight for a full-sized keyboard. It also has a detachable cable so it's easy to take on the go.

RGB backlit keys with radiant lighting effects
HyperX mechanical switches feature an exposed LED for brighter, more luminous RGB lighting.

Advanced customization with HyperX NGENUITY Software
Customize Game Mode, take greater control over lighting effects, and set up your own macros.

Three adjustable keyboard tilt angles
Adjust the two-step keyboard feet for three different angle settings (3 Degree , 7 Degree , or 11 Degree ), whichever makes your wrists the most comfortable.

Onboard memory for three profiles
Create your own custom-designed lightshows, save them directly to the keyboard, and take them with you on the go.

Game Mode, 100% anti-ghosting, and N-key rollover
Ensure that all your keypresses register and that you're not accidentally taking yourself out of the game in key moments.
