  Very convenient, beautiful due to stable lighting in several colors, bulky, sturdy, and HEAVY as the top side is metallic, the 3 additional Multimedia keys above the Num Lock are incredibly useful, and the rotating silver knob is even more convenient. It feels like a mechanical keyboard even though it is membrane, has a very good key feel, and is not completely silent as one might expect from a membrane keyboard. My only concern is how long it will last as I had an Aula in the past (though it was mechanical) and it gave up earlier than expected. I got used to it immediately, it won't trouble you at all, I connected it to Windows 11 without restarting. Until then 5/5, mainly for the feel of the keys, for the lighting that doesn't resemble a carnival, and for the knob.

  The keys are relatively raised and have a nice feel. They do not make much noise. The build quality is quite good, definitely worth the price, and it is quite sturdy.
  In terms of support, it is a bit strange because it has two rubber pads on one side, but on the other side, where the feet are, there are no rubber pads! Only if you lift the feet, there are rubber pads on the feet themselves. Most manufacturers do the exact opposite, they have feet when they are lowered but do not have them on the feet. So if you don't lift it, like me, it's a bit problematic. I took rubber pads from another keyboard and glued them on.
  The lights are very strange and what others have written here is true. It is also very difficult to adjust them. Depending on the setting, it makes a high-frequency sound (somewhere around 16-20Khz)... at the limits of human hearing, but it is quite annoying if you hear it. In full intensity of the lights or in zero intensity, there is no sound of course.
  What I discovered is that it has a "driver" (from the manufacturer's website), which is not necessary of course to use the keyboard, but it allows you to adjust the lighting from there. You can also create macros, as well as download the latest firmware - theoretically at least, because for me it shows firmware v1.0, I pressed to update it and it told me that I am already on the latest version... but if it had tried to connect to the internet, I would have seen it in my firewall to allow it, which did not happen... Anyway. This software is only for Windows.
  In the anti-ghosting test I did on the Microsoft website, the results were quite good.
  I bought it mainly for typing and because I wanted this specific layout, and I am quite satisfied; a good purchase.

  UPDATE 27/3/23 - After 10 months of use (including a lot of gaming), I have to give it a 5-star rating. Having previously used a €70 keyboard, I can't perceive the significant differences that would justify this price gap. With €13, it has already paid for itself, so even if it breaks, I will buy the same one again.

  Pros
  - Very good typing feel, reminiscent of a mechanical keyboard without the loud sound
  - Good build quality with a metallic(?) coating surface
  - Many lighting options (personally, I chose the bright blue at full intensity)
  - The lighting is satisfactory at full intensity (at least for me)
  - The multimedia buttons are very helpful

  Cons
  - Without the lighting, the characters on the keys are invisible
  - It has Greek characters, but it's better to forget about them because even with the lighting at full intensity, they are invisible - or rather, the Greek characters don't light up, so they are invisible

  Conclusion
  For its cost (€13), the keyboard is very good and meets the needs of the average user. I mainly bought it for work, although I don't type much anymore because I have installed a speech-to-text program on Chrome. However, whenever I need to type, it responds perfectly. It also has instantaneous response in the FPS games I play. I couldn't ask for more from a keyboard, especially at this price.

  P.S. For ease of use, since I struggled a bit to find the functions (but also check the user manual included in the packaging, as it explains them adequately), the large silver button on the top right serves both sound and keyboard color/brightness. Pressing it for about two seconds until the small adjacent buttons start flashing changes between sound and lighting settings. When it is in the lighting settings, press it briefly (if the lights flash again, you have held it down for too long, so try again) to switch to the next lighting mode. It takes a little patience and several presses until you get the desired lighting. The same button also serves to adjust the sound/lighting (right-left).

  In terms of its price, the keyboard is very good, for a membrane one. The feel of the keys is excellent and I was pleasantly surprised to see that it has memory for storing settings. The keys are backlit, unfortunately with lower intensity than I would like, the top part of the frame is metallic, and the scroll wheel on the right is practical for adjusting light intensity or sound level. The keys have a unique shape and the RGB lighting is adjustable with several effects, but only in predefined colors, I think 7 in total. For this price, it's unbelievable that you get such a keyboard, I hope it will last over time.

  Update: the only thing that bothers me is the brightness of the lighting, it's quite low for my taste.

  Quite a good keyboard for its price. The keys are membrane, but they resemble brown switches, overall the tactile feel is very good. For those who listen to a lot of music, the volume control wheel and the 3 buttons next to it make life a little easier. It also comes with a keycap remover in case you need to clean or change the keys. However, the things that bother me are 1) The brightness adjustment makes a continuous annoying high-frequency sound with each setting except for 100% and 0% brightness, so you either have it at full or not at all, and this is a problem that I noticed in different forums. Also, the Num lock, CAPS lock, and Scroll lock are always blue (like in the photo) and don't change unless they are disabled or become "one" if you constantly have it in the dark blue lighting. Personally, it doesn't bother me because I will know when they are on or off. Overall, it is a very good keyboard, especially for its price, if the negatives do not affect the user.

  I did not expect such a cheap membrane keyboard to be so good! The feel of the keys is unique compared to all the other membrane keyboards I have tried. Indeed, it feels like a semi-mechanical/hybrid keyboard and the keys actually remind me of brown mechanical keyboard switches (Outemu brown). Additionally, the keycaps (with the letters) are somewhat rounded and give a very satisfying feeling when pressed. Its thickness is satisfactorily small without being low-profile (see photo), it does not create ergonomic problems. The overall construction is sturdy, plastic but heavy and rigid keyboard, with 4 plastic "feet" underneath to support it well on the desk even when you lift its legs. The lighting changes with a round button located on the upper right side (see photo), but the patterns it has are all monochromatic, meaning all buttons are red, all green, all steady, all flashing, etc. If you hold down the round button for a second or two, it changes the sound intensity instead of the lighting pattern. A small issue with the lighting is that the CAPS LOCK, NUM LOCK, and SCROLL LOCK lights are always blue, and when they are activated with a different keyboard lighting color, they slightly illuminate the adjacent keys (see photo), which looks a bit bad. Also, this keyboard has the well-known problem of several other cheap keyboards, where some combinations of the left Shift with other buttons, e.g. left CTRL + left Shift + letter P (in English) or letter U, are not recognized, so you have to press left CTRL + right Shift and the letter for them to work, which is a bit inconvenient with the fingers. Finally, the space bar feels a bit hard at first, sometimes you don't press it hard enough to register, but you get used to it and it probably softens a bit over time. Overall, though, we are talking about an excellently constructed and high-quality cheap membrane keyboard that feels a bit like a mechanical one with brown switches.

  The only thing I would like is for it to be a little brighter, but other than that, it is a reliable keyboard

  It is not mechanical but semi-mechanical.
