Roccat Magma unboxing and review - satisfying RGB with some black spots?
465This is an unboxing and review of the Roccat Magma membrane keyboard. This is a membrane device which has a focus on RGB lighting with a semi-transparent top plate that reflects the RGB and results in a neatly satisfying view. It's also a superb quiet membrane keyboard that's comfortable, accurate and satisfying to use.

Highlights of the Roccat Magma for me:
- Nice RGB lighting with Roccat's AIMO intelligent lighting
- Programmable buttons allow for customisation with ease
- Easy Shift tech lets you assign even more button presses with ease
- Comfortable and quiet enough that it doesn't get picked up by your mic
- Great features and overall design for the price
Lowlights of this keyboard:
- There are some blackspots on the backplate that stand out like a sore thumb
- Because it uses zone RGB lighting, the keycap etching isn't visible at certain angles
- The wrist rest is a real dust magnet
- Not as satisfying as a mechnical keyboard
- Not macro compatible
- Not all keys work with Easy Shift
