The stands on the bottom of the keyboard can be adjusted to two steps.

During my tests, I didnt experience any accidental key presses or lag time.

Tactile feedback was also terrific, as it should be for mechanical keyboards.

The keyboard doesnt come with extra keys.

However, its hot-swappable, so you could swap individual switches easily using an included tool.

you’re free to replace switches in either 3-pin or 5-pin configurations.

Otherwise, get it and make the keyboard your own.

The process was smooth and added to the keyboard’s value.

Should You Buy the Alienware Pro Wireless Keyboard?

Although I believe part of the $200 cost is simply based on the Alienware name.

Assuming you are a heavy gamer, I still think its worth it.

For good measure, its also important to note Team Liquid was included in developing the keyboard.

The company is a major Dutch-based esports organization with over 150 players on its team.
