The HyperX Alloy Origins Core is an ultra-compact, durable keyboard with custom HyperX mechanical switches. Featuring RGB backlighting that can be customized with HyperX NGENUITY software and 3 built-in profiles that give you ultimate control.
Specifications are collected from official manufacturer websites. Please verify the specifications before proceeding with your final purchase. If you notice any problem you can report it here.
I have bought it 2 times and I won't change it. The best. Small & elegant. If a little water, juice, or anything else falls on it, it is durable.
Excellent keyboard, I use it daily for all purposes (work, gaming, etc.) and it has been extremely convenient for me.
I don't have much experience with different switches, but these specific ones (aqua) from HyperX seem to me like the best intermediate solution for someone who doesn't want them to be pressed with the slightest touch but also doesn't want too much resistance.
Additionally, it is very beautiful with a lot of RGB customization options, the keycaps are easily removable and reattachable for cleaning, and it has a detachable cable which is very helpful.
Conclusion: 5 stars and excellent value for money for a price around 80-90 euros but also more.
I have had it for about 7 months and I use it daily. For me, it is the best keyboard that has passed through my hands. It is very sturdy, the switches are ideal, I believe, for someone who doesn't want too much noise but wants to have that (clicky) sound. I got them at the price of 75 euros and they are worth even more than that money.
I got this mechanical keyboard not for gaming, but because I wanted a product with beautiful design, sturdy construction, and reliability for everyday use. I am absolutely satisfied! The keys have an excellent feel and make typing comfortable and enjoyable, especially if you type a lot throughout the day. The build quality is evident from the very first moment, and it is clear that this is a keyboard that will last for years. I definitely recommend it to those who want something more than the usual.
A keyboard that has a defect in the spacebar after 2 years deserves 1/5. Look for defects in the spacebar of the Alloy Origin Core.
Update:
In less than 3 years, it eventually developed an issue with random switches. Sometimes, some of them do not register key presses or register them twice. I believe it is not a problem with the switches but with the board or the software (firmware) since when some switches are fixed, others break. I tried everything, cleaning it internally with air and contact spray, reinstalling the firmware, changing the cable, and testing it on another PC and another operating system with no results.
Unfortunately, although the design of the keyboard suits my tastes, I wouldn't recommend it even to my worst enemy; keyboard ghosting is one of the worst issues that can arise. For a 90e keyboard, it is unacceptable.
Update #2
I bought a Keychron to replace the HyperX that continues to have its issues. The Keychron costs 20e more but is wired/wireless, has swappable switches, a sturdier build, and a better feel. I'm still looking into whether I can somehow fix the problem with the HyperX. For anyone looking to buy this specific keyboard and wants extra feedback regarding the random key ghosting issue, there is a Reddit thread titled "[HyperX FPS Alloy Pro] Issue with keys not working randomly, and needing to unplug & re-plug the keyboard?" where responses from the company are included. It is a common phenomenon, so avoid this specific keyboard at all costs. For roughly the same money, I recommend Keychron, although I haven't had it for more than 2 months. If there is any update, I will inform you
Detailed review!
As a owner of this product for 6 months (specifically with Aqua switches), I have to say that it must be one of the best marketing gaming keyboards out of all that I have tried. The RGB lights are very bright and shiny but I have it only in solid color and at low/relaxing brightness. Speaking of customization, there is the HyperX NGENUITY app (you need to download it from Google or any other browser) that has several settings for the keyboard such as one of them is to assign specific assignments to any key you want and to serve for another use you want it to do (e.g. you bind the "A" key and set it to lower or raise the volume). Then there are the Lights where you can choose any color you want for the keyboard even in HEX code (e.g. #FFFFFF) as well as the opacity (0 to 100) & speed (speed only if you want to add effects e.g. fade when typing, swipe, etc. from 0 to 100 as well). I bought it specifically for gaming but also to write comfortably at my job so I got the Aqua switches which are tactile. If you don’t know what specific switch you need, you can check on YouTube or in detail on Reddit, etc. But for me so far they seem perfect for gaming. Because I play FPS games (like VALORANT) and in FPS I would say that generally it is a bit necessary (at least if you play competitively) to have good strafing (e.g. when you press A & D or D & A and stop in between and shoot) with these specific switches it is just fine with the low latency it has. But usually most would prefer the red switches because they are linear which means they don’t have the bump that tactile ones have and are more effective for gaming but again, it’s a preference. Generally, there are many keyboard functions in the app for anyone who wants to try it.
It's awesome.
I will start with the first impression.
I really like it externally. It's a jewel for the office.
In the first hour I tried it, I said okay it's good.
I had it saved and bought it after completing the rest of the build.
The truth is that at first it didn't impress me as a purchase since my previous membrane keyboard (20 euros) was quite good and I had no complaints.
Today is the second day. I played csgo, watched series, and now I'm writing this.
I haven't gotten used to it yet but I already like it and I think over time I won't be able to change it.
At first, the buttons felt a bit "tight" and hard, and my fingers got tired.
I'm used to it already.
What I noticed in myself and in others who used it is how strong and careless we press the keys.
Due to the tactile nature of the keys, it makes you more conscious of typing and I really like that.
I make more mistakes (which I always did).
In fact, I realize that I make mistakes and correct them, while before, because the keyboard was quieter and more neutral, I was on autopilot.
For lights, sound, weight, quality, and the rest, everyone talks about it so I won't pay attention, only to my personal experience.
To anyone thinking of buying it, I would say to weigh it and see their priorities.
I would put it at the end of the list as the budget can go to more important things like a comfortable chair, a good desk, headphones, sound system, and anything that has to do with building the best conditions.
Let's invest in our health and then in "jewelry."
Among these, I also include a good mattress if you don't already have one.
Irrelevant to the keyboard, but since I'm talking about budget, I thought I'd mention it.
Happy shopping, not necessary, and I would suggest putting it on the list with the intention of buying it on a good offer.
In this case, it's worth it and I hope it lasts for many years because I believe that once I get used to it, I won't want to change it at all.
Edit:
I saw a budget mechanical keyboard that a friend of mine has.
Compared to this one, not only does it feel fake, light, and plastic, but its keys didn't have the quality that the HyperX has.
It's truly day and night.
I'm already used to it and I won't change it for anything (I've had it for less than a week).
Edit: After using it for a while, I wouldn't change it for anything.
At the office at work, I usually use classic keyboards and now I have gotten used to it and I don't like it at all :)
Also, if you are a professional, the tactile click is not just nice to the touch but necessary.
When you write code for hours or pass invoices, a wrong click can result in an error in the code and time until you find it or an extra digit that can multiply the bill.
When it's so sensitive with long clicky travel, you always click and you realize it, resulting in knowing what you're doing with certainty.
The keyboard is very nice and of high quality, literally I expected it to be much worse due to its price compared to the others (as a comparison, Razer Blackwidow V3 and Steelseries Apex 7). Personally, I bought it for 70 euros on Black Friday, and it's great. The switches are exactly what I needed (I had been using blue switches for 4 years and thought they were perfect, but the HyperX Aqua switches are far better). The feeling is similar to red switches, but with much more sensation. Additionally, something very good about this keyboard is that it has a metal base and is anodized black. The keys also have no play, which is a very positive aspect. The software is quite good as it can be downloaded from the Windows Store and has a very good response time. The cable is braided, long, and of high-quality USB Type-C. It has two convenient adjustment levels. The unboxing experience was good, although not as good as Razer and Logitech. Finally, I played some games and did some coding, and the experience was very positive. I recommend it to those whose budget is up to 80 euros.
Very nice key feel and good construction. The only negative is the cleaning of a keyboard of this type.
I have had the keyboard for a week and I can say as a first impression that I am very satisfied. Having used the Logitech Mx Keys for more than two years, which is a very good keyboard and extremely convenient, it is something different but similar in several cases.
First of all, it is very good for gaming, responsive, accurate, and superior compared to membrane keyboards.
The build quality is superb. Sturdy, heavy, and stable. The backlighting is very intense at 100%. Personally, I have it turned off during the day because I don't need it, and at 50% during the night. It has nice colors and effects that you can program through the HyperX software, which you can find in the Microsoft Store for Windows. Overall, the software is satisfactory. It could use some improvement to become better and offer more options, but in general, it has options for both lighting and macro programming of the keys.
In terms of typing, it is very good. The Aqua switches are similar to Cherry MX Brown switches, which means they are tactile, so when you press them, you feel the feedback that they have been activated, but at the same time, they are not as clicky as blue switches, nor as linear as red switches that can be pressed accidentally. I can't say that the switches are noisy, but they are not almost silent like the MX Keys, which resembles laptop keyboards in terms of noise. They have a noise level similar to a regular keyboard, but the feeling they leave is completely different. Finally, during calls, I didn't receive any feedback that they can be heard, so you won't be annoyed by the clicky-clicky sound.
Personally, I have enjoyed it both for gaming and work. It is my first experience with a mechanical keyboard, and it has left a very positive impression on me. It is definitely the best keyboard, especially when it comes to mechanical keyboards, you need to test it to have a complete opinion. From my side, after searching on YouTube and reading comments from both owners here and on foreign sites, I don't regret my choice. Finally, I don't miss the numpad part because it is not something I use extensively. It is a matter of habit, and you adapt quickly.
One observation I have to make is that because it has a type-C port, it is not at the same level as the frame, like in mobile phones, controllers, etc., but it has a recess for the cable to fit in. It is possible that not all type-C cables will fit because the cover will be in the way at the end of the cable. I tried an Anker braided cable and it never fit. The package includes a cable, and it is braided, so you won't have any problems. I just mention it so you keep it in mind.
In conclusion, I combined it with the HyperX Pudding Keycaps Full Key Black, which are PBT switches and not ABS like the stock keycaps. They have a better feel and fit because the curvature on each key is distinct to provide better finger placement. They are not glossy like the stock keycaps, so they don't show fingerprints, and they have better quality than plastic. Also, because they are not completely black like the stock keycaps, they enhance and increase the backlighting.
Of course, I recommend the keyboard at a price of around €100, especially if you find it on sale!
I have it for 2 years, excellent keyboard, premium construction, a bit difficult in the first few days to get used to the travel distance of the buttons, but afterwards you don't have a problem. The lighting is very strong, I made a mistake by changing some buttons to white and the light was very distracting (it's better to have them turned off). The software is okay, don't expect anything crazy but it does its job.
I would recommend getting a wrist rest because the base is a bit high and my wrists hurt after a while. I recommend it for gaming but also for programming, as the aqua switches I chose allow you to type very fast and comfortably with the disadvantage that it makes a bit of noise, but with noise-canceling headphones you won't notice it.
So far, the "D" button gave me a problem for some reason, after pressing it, it sinks down, and the Windows button stopped working.
Finally, don't forget to clean it once a month because it easily collects dust.
The keyboard is wonderful. I got it around 110 (with aqua switches) and I've had it for two weeks now. I can already say that I am impressed. The keys are very pleasant to the touch and I have no issues with responsiveness. The cable is quite long and of good quality. It only has one problem which is probably unique to mine. Sometimes when I press the A key, it sounds like a piece of metal being pressed. It's not a big problem, more of a minor detail and it doesn't bother me most of the time. I consider it worth the money.
Coming from razer black widow & motospeed ck108.
Used for gaming & typing.
Strong RGB, with many settings through the hyperx app.
First time ten keyless, excellent sturdy construction. Overall premium in everything, especially if you manage to find it on sale. If you want to clean it, it can be easily done with a small brush or something similar.
https://www.skroutz.gr/short_videos/27406/hyperx-alloy-origins-katharismos (how to clean it)
Positive, there are also different key caps that you can buy from Skroutz.
As for durability, time will tell.
I bought the keyboard at the price of 100 euros and I didn't regret it for a minute! The Aqua switches offer excellent feel and responsiveness in games. I have tried almost all the switches from many different keyboard brands and I have to say that these switches are by far the best. They offer a slight resistance before actuation and a gentle but satisfying sound when pressed. The keyboard is beautiful, it has unlimited RGB color options, and its size is ideal for TKL. Its cable is long enough and covered with fabric, it connects to the keyboard with USB-C. I highly recommend it, it's worth every penny!
I think it's a one-way street for the 60 euros I caught on offer. Compared to the motospeed mechanical keyboard (which was terrible), it is much more sturdy and the keys are much more accurate, as well as being smaller due to the lack of a numpad, which I wanted. It's my first time using blue switches and for now they don't bother me. The sound is not too loud, of course I mainly use the PC for FPS gaming. It's very bright with nice RGB and additional features through the HyperX software, both in terms of effects and functions/macros of the keys. The best judge, of course, is durability over time. Nevertheless, definitely value for money at 60 euros.
Very good and sturdy keyboard, nice lighting but my only complaint is that after a year the lighting on one key stopped working (probably burned out) and on another key I have it set to blue but it shows green. Nevertheless, I consider it worth the purchase!
-Very good build quality with a detachable "type c-usb" cable.
-Aqua switches for those who like the tactile feel without the intense noise and with fast response.
-The colors can be adjusted from the keyboard with some standard modes, but for more options, the HyperX "NGENUITY" software is needed.
-Also, as stated, it is "Tenkeyless," meaning the extra keys with numbers are missing to save space.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! One of the best keyboards I have ever had! I made the mistake last year and bought one from a well-known company that starts with R* and within a month, the letters on the keys faded. I sent 2 emails to the company and they didn't even respond. So, trusting the comments here for this specific product, I want to thank you all.
Congratulations to HyperX!
Edit: One year of use and it still works like the first day
The keys have a nice feel and it looks pretty good. But...
I wanted to make the lighting monochrome.
I couldn't install the software, neither on Windows 7 nor on Mac, nor on Windows 10. After a few days of waiting, the company asked me to try downloading the application from the Windows app store, not from the link on the website as an alternative. I returned the product.
In the 59e purchase, I consider that I stole them. Beautiful tenkeyless keyboard, quite heavy that gives you the feeling of quality construction, brushed aluminum, amazing feeling with the HyperX red switches. I don't think there is any competition for this price and I am quite sure that it surpasses keyboards of double the price. Must buy!
- Solid construction quality, made entirely of aluminum.
- Powerful lighting with adjustable intensity.
- The switches (aqua) have a decent feel, but it seems like they have no factory lubrication, which affects the feel and sound.
- The keycaps are very cheap.
- It is not easily disassembled, which makes modding and custom lubing the switches problematic.
- The software for customization is not the best, neither in terms of usability nor in the results you can achieve with custom lighting.
For 60 euros, it is decent.
Just stole a church....For 60 euros they put me in jail for what I took...first of all, we're talking about a full metal keyboard...usually it's either all plastic or metal where the keys are pressed, but here it's all metal, you understand the quality as soon as you touch it and feel its weight. There's nothing under 100 euros like this in another keyboard, forget it. The blue switches in my case, because I like the clicky sound, are the best I've tried...and I've tried many (razer, romeo g, custom, kalih, cherry mx) the keys respond without much pressure for light and fast typing as soon as you get used to them. It has a detachable cable of good length. Note, the feet it has at the back have two levels of height for typing and gaming in case someone doesn't notice it since one foot is inside the other. Finally, the NGENUITY application will annoy you to download it because it takes you to the Microsoft Store, but you can find it here https://www.filehorse.com/download-hyperx-ngenuity/ with a simple download. It's safe. It has simple settings with about 5-6 effects in which, while pressing a key, you can set it to have a second effect on top of the first one you have already set, you can make many combinations if you explore it with effect on top of effect. Here, the friend on the channel on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtoPTP09QWfr5x6mo692VdA does many and you can download them ready in the description of each video. That's it...steal it as much as you can...
There is nothing that has not been said, but I will also express my opinion. It is a pleasure to write with this keyboard! Amazing construction, a steal for 60 euros (especially compared to others of its kind). The switches (aqua) are fantastic and the lighting is impeccable. Truly, after two weeks of use, I am searching for flaws.
Hard keyboard nice elegant that you need to carry with you in tournaments etc.
BUT it collects dust and it is difficult to clean otherwise battle keyboard
Perfect! The buttons make sound as much as they should, but the feeling when playing is something else. I highly recommend it, as a gamer I really enjoy playing with this keyboard.
Purchased on 11/09/22 for €64.90, this keyboard is a steal for its quality.
I received it today and I have to say, at first glance, the keyboard is a sturdy construction and not made of plastic! (Aside from the caps, okay). Overall, it has a very good build quality and feel.
It looks elegant on the desk and personally, it saved me space.
The caps are higher compared to the surface of the keyboard base. I got the aqua switches, which are noiseless, but it also depends on the surface you place the keyboard on! For example, if you place it on a large mousepad, you will immediately hear the keystrokes much quieter.
I give it 5 stars, the keyboard is worth it and its RGB lighting is very beautiful. It has three different pre-set setups for you to use.

Okay, the keyboard is a gem! Truly impressive, nice feeling when clicking, very soft switches. I found it for 65 euros and as the English say, that's a steal, if you find it for this price, it's definitely worth it and more.
The sound of the aqua switches is nice, for those who want something silent I think that's why there are the brown switches.
I bought the keyboard while I had seen it previously with a price above 100 euros and finding it for around 64 euros, I considered it the right time to buy it.
This particular one has the HyperX Blue switches which are absolutely satisfying both in terms of feeling and sound. I highly recommend it with the blue switches, with the only logical reason being that besides gaming, it will also be used for typing since with the previous keyboard I had 35WPM while with this one I have reached up to 74WPM (Many boring nights on Typeracer). The lights and the built-in light schemes are very nice and intense, and the colors did not disappoint me at all. The Type-C cable is braided and of very good quality as it "clicks" tightly and does not move, alleviating my anxiety that it will break more intensely. When not needed for the keyboard, the cable can also be used as a charger, but to avoid increasing the chances of it breaking in general, I will only use it for the keyboard. It has a very good casing and I thought it would be plastic, but appearances can be deceiving, and the stands are 3 levels (flat, medium, and high), making it convenient for typing and gaming.
The only "negative" in my opinion. If you don't have Windows 10, then don't expect to do much regarding the lights. The HyperX program (Ngenuity) can only be downloaded through the Microsoft Store, meaning it won't work on PCs with 8.1 and 7, no discussion when it comes to custom light schemes, etc. Also, very insignificant, but personally, I would appreciate a keycap remover so that I can clean it whenever needed without hurting my fingers while removing the keys
I have been watching it for quite some time. At some point, you.gr puts it on sale for 65€ (it was only for one night, maybe it was a mistake, what can I say) and I immediately bought it. At 65€, this keyboard is a steal. Excellent build quality. Very sturdy, the keys fit well on the chassis and don't move around as you type. Which is good, but they are not PBT. So sometimes they get shiny (not a big problem because they are 100% standard and you can replace them with any keycaps you want). I really like the aqua switches for the work I do (mostly coding) and the aluminum case adds a lot to the overall feel. PBT switches cost around 25€ so I will replace them at some point (the process is easy). The same keyboard is also available with red linear switches. But I preferred the aqua because I like the tactile feel. Many prefer the red ones (including programmers). The linear switches don't have tactile feedback.
Now compared to the cherry brown switches I had before, they are a bit quieter (which is good). They remind me a bit of romer-g tactile, at their best. The RGB lighting is superb. I won't comment on the software because I haven't tried others in the past, but it serves me well that I downloaded it once, created a profile I liked, saved it to the keyboard's memory (it has 3 profiles) and then turned it off so it doesn't take up space in memory. It has many features (macro bindings, key binding, etc.) but I'm not interested in them so I didn't try them.
Also, it serves me well that it is a keyboard with floating keys (so it is easy to clean) and low profile. Also, I don't miss the numeric keypad.
I really enjoy it. I will come back if I have something to add.
UPDATE: I'm back. Go and buy the PBT keycaps (around 25€). It's amazing!! I got them in white because I like the contrast of white/black. But they also come in black.
