This an amazing Keyboard for the given price point. there some great advantages:
1. Its mechanical, the typing is amazing on a mechanical keyboard and the feedback from the keys is really good.
2. Its way cheaper than many other mechanical keyboards.
3. Its an Indian product, made by TVS electronics, which are making keyboards at least since last 20+ years. Although the keys used might be Chinese.
4. Build quality, is great and the typing experience is amazing.
Minor Disadvantages:
1. There are no dedicated media keys or function keys.
2. Some people may find it noisy, however, to me this is the sound of quality.
3. This is out of my personal experience, the placement of space bar is bit awkward. so when i initially started using it the space bar I was feeling bit awkward to press it via thumb, however, it was just a matter of getting used to the keyboard style and layout. So its not really a disadvantage but just a matter of being habitual to it. Same is the experience with the small backspace key.
Overall, its an amazing keyboard and people looking for a keyboard for office work and typing can buy it blindly.
I can't say the same about gamers. While i purchased this one i did had a look at all other mechanical keyboards in the market, even the likes of Corsair mechanical keyboard. The problem for such high end keyboards is the price, i mean do an average user really needs so many fancy features? I doubt, still those who think they need those features given other high end keyboards can certainly go for it. But the thing is that this is a 2.5K keyboard and will easily last 4-5 years (I won't be surprised if it lasts 8-10 years). On the other hand a high end mechanical keyboard cost on an average 12-16K. So effectively i can buy, 5 or 6 TVS gold keyboard in the same price and use for next 20 - 25 years.
Probably that's a bit too much of an extrapolation. :D
Anyway, to summarize, this is a great keyboard for a person who is setting up a work desk for work from home. GO FOR IT !!!!
Cheers.
