  This review is about switches: Outemu Brown, keyboard language: English US

  Former owner of Geneis, I went for another more 'famous' keyboard but I was not satisfied and now I returned to Genesis in this particular model this time and I am absolutely satisfied for its price (27€). It has many options in rgb for anyone who uses them.

  I bought this keyboard for my work, it is very good, sturdy with immediate response, I see that I can type faster than before although because I have not yet accustomed to the keys, I make some mistakes from time to time, the only thing I would like would be to be able to turn off the lights, but maybe I have not found it yet.

  I have it for one year and 7 months. No problem so far. I got it on sale for about 34 euros. Nothing is burned, all the keys work properly. Just if you press the keys hard and abruptly, it leaves a small "click" sound in the ear, on some keys, which may come from the aluminum frame.
  I would really like to try the blue switches as well. These specific ones, the brown, are something in between red and blue. They are relatively soft to press and have intermediate noise

  I use it at work, mainly for typing and don't expect crazy texts... From the first months, I had an issue with ghosting, meaning that when you press a key, it outputs it twice, but I managed to deal with it through software. However, after about a year, the keys "e" and "i" sometimes get stuck, meaning that you have to press them 2-3 times to get the output, and not always. You can understand how annoying it is. I tried everything I found on the internet, cleaning with air, etc. but with no result. It's a shame...

  I have been using the THOR300 with red switches and white backlighting in the version without the numpad for a few years and I am very satisfied. However, I wanted to try the brown switches at some point, so I also got that.

  In general, they are very similar in construction and key-cups. I would say the tenkeyless version is slightly better in some aspects.

  I really liked the brown switches, but that is completely subjective, I would say.

  Now, onto the negatives:
  1) The LEDs that indicate num, caps, scroll, and win lock are very bright and red. If you have red backlighting, it matches well, but with anything else, it's terrible. White and discreet would have been much better, I believe.
  2) You can adjust very few things in terms of backlighting on the keyboard. You can change lighting effects (breathing, rainbow, and other silly ones) but very little in terms of colors. In the program with a static color, you can choose 8 solid colors and one random.
  3) In the program, things are even worse. Yes, you can adjust specific colors for each individual key, without grouping them for faster settings, but the colors are completely off. You set green and turquoise comes out. You set yellow and orange comes out. In no way can you adjust the colors as you want. It doesn't even have white or anything close to it. A big fail. I have left it on a static color, which is slightly pink, but in the program, you select it by pressing orange!

  If you overlook the RGB for the price of around €40 that I got it for, it is a good keyboard with brown outemu switches.
  If you want white backlighting, you skip it. If you want to adjust specific colors precisely, you probably skip it unless you happen to get the colors you want among the ones it has.
