You can also extensively customise the RGB, macros, and other keyboard functions in the software too, further adding to its effectiveness and usefulness.Ĭonnection is via Bluetooth or 2.4Ghz wireless, with a switch on the back to change between the two. Full disclosure: I do actually have the SteelSeries GG software installed anyway because I review and use quite a bit of their stuff – and in this case, it can be used to customise the key activation level on a per-key basis, which is surprisingly useful. The keyboard is extremely well made, responsive, and customisable.Īs someone who is so very tired of having to install software for peripherals which don’t really need it, I really appreciated this feature. Even better, it didn’t require any software or anything – it can be done entirely off the keyboard. I really liked the adjustable activation points for keys which allowed me to set up when the keystroke would register. The build quality on the keyboard is very good – the keys were responsive and not too “clicky”, and I found they had just the right level of spring too. It is in that spirit that the keyboard has been compressed (60% of the size of a regular keyboard) and does a very good job of keeping most of the full-size features, generally by giving keys and alternate function that can be activated with a double-tap (for example, the number keys at the top will perform as the F1-F10 keys when double-tapped).įor general use it did take a bit of getting used to, but didn’t impact the gaming experience when I was testing it with titles including God of War and Doom Eternal – the WASD keys etc were accessible and despite my large hands, I could use them without issues. They’re one of those things you either love or have no use for I’m very much in the former category since I do a lot of Business Stuff™, but outside of a few complex simulation games like Microsoft Flight Simulator, I can’t think of the last time I actually used them for anything gaming related. The SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Wireless keyboard is a *lot* smaller than a traditional gaming keyboard.īesides the smaller size, it’s also missing the ten-keys. Measuring 293mm wide by 103mm deep and 40mm high, it is, as you can imagine, a lot smaller than the keyboards I usually use.
My first thought on seeing the Apex Pro Mini Wireless Keyboard was “What is this, a keyboard for ants?”
