Ant Esports MK4500 Pro TKL, with 80% Mechanical Keyboard, 2.4G/BT5.0/Wired, Wireless Bluetooth Mechanical Keyboard 87 Keys, Gaming Keyboard, Red Switch, Black

I bought the **Ant Esports MK 4500 Pro TKL** because I needed a wireless, multi-device keyboard that fit my budget. It supports wired mode, a 2.4 GHz USB mode, and can connect via Bluetooth to three devices. The keycaps feel solid, and the black-and-white color scheme looks fantastic. It also came with two faceplates—black and yellow—but I was supposed to get three. After contacting Ant Esports customer support about the missing white faceplate, I didn’t get any response, which was disappointing.As for the keyboard itself, the keys felt great, the sound was satisfying, the RGB lighting was on point, and the connectivity was perfect for what I needed. It even has a Windows/Mac mode switch, which is super useful. However, around the 6-month mark, I started noticing issues with keys like **T, F, and W** either not registering or registering twice, which made typing frustrating and impacted my gaming performance. Since this keyboard has hard-soldered switches, I couldn’t fix it myself.The problem worsened between the 9th and 12th months, right after the warranty ended. Some keys stopped registering altogether, making the keyboard unusable. I ended up salvaging the keycaps and switched to a wired keyboard from another brand, which has been working fine since.In hindsight, if your budget allows, it’s better to go for keyboards above ₹5000 from reputable brands. I wouldn’t recommend Ant Esports or other budget brands after this experience.

I have been using this product for few months now and I am happy to say that I am totally satisfied with the results. This keyboard can meet the needs of a wide range of users from casual to serious. Let me list down the bullet points regarding this device for a better understanding.Good Things:1. Leaving out the dedicated number pad, it is a full-size keyboard with all required buttons for serious users. For the general functions there is no dependency on the function button which is a really good thing as it spoils the experience of most compact keyboards.2. The typing experience is really great on the device with good key travel and feedback. The keyboard sound is not at all distracting but provides favorable audio feedback while typing.3. Since the keyboard makes itself compact only by ditching the number pad and not altering the layout in general, the users who are switching to this device from a full keyboard will not face a muscle memory issue while typing leading to a smooth transition.4. The RGB lighting is bright enough adding a zing to the look of the keyboard. For those funky users there is a plethora of RGB effects to choose from. Personally, I don't go for that. I just keep the standard all key light up mode.5. Adjustable foot pegs allow a comfortable typing angle leading to a pleasant typing experience.6. Since the device charges via Type C cable, there is no hassle of any specialized cable just to charge the keyboard. Any existing Type C mobile charger will do just fine. Also, the device can be used while charging which ensures no interruption in work.Things which can be improved:1. I personally feel that the battery life can be improved a bit by providing a larger battery since it is a RGB enabled device, and most persons would want to use it with the RGB on.2. Multi-level foot pegs allowing for different elevations would have enabled the user to fine tune the typing experience even more. This feature is available on a lot of keyboards.Bonus - The keyboard has swappable top plate allowing the user to choose from 3 colour options (default black, yellow and white) all of which come in the box. While this does not affect the performance of the device but changing the plate from time to time gives a fresh look to it. The replacement process is as simple as it can get with magnetic attachment.

just got it today, feels quite good to use, the sound is really good, I personally do not like very clicky and loud keyboards, so this one feels like the perfect balance between tactile and not too loud, the only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the space bar sounds clacky out of the box, but that is fixed with a little bit of foam, else, everything is really good.also the rgb is non adjustable but i just leave it off(bought it for 1999)definately would recommend

Pros:1. I found that the key switches are nice and the right amount of clicky for me albeit a bit too loud.2. One of the best looking keyboards for the price.3. Build quality is generally good.Cons:1. Bad QC. One of the keys fell directly off right when I opened it. The backspace needs to be pressed a bit too hard in my unit which is very annoying.2. The bluetooth modes never worked with my PC so I used either wired or 2.4Ghz3. Switches are not swappable

The keyboard was an awesome deal at the beginning. Very cheap, and worked well. Has good features and the colour changing option is brilliant.However, after using it for the last 5 months, I'm disappointed. Within 3 months, it started giving issues with keypresses. Started giving out random double presses to a single press when connected via USB cable.After 4 months, its gone bonkers. Double presses, skips presses, some keys refuse to work for about 30secs.. Can no longer type fast with this. Have to keep backspacing to correct its double presses or skipped alphabets. Its only creating a waste of time. Worst is trying to login to the PC, takes about 5-10 attempts to get the password right if your password is long. GOnna throw this shiite away and spend good money on a good keyboard.
