SteelSeries Apex Pro Gen 3 OmniPoint 3.0 HyperMagnetic Switches — Adjustable Actuation — Rapid Trigger — Game-Ready Presets — Protection Mode — Rapid Tap/SOCD — OLED — RGB — PBT Keycaps — USB-C

The SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Wireless is super easy to set up and feels amazing to type on. It’s compact but still very functional. The build quality is excellent, and it feels solid. Great value for the features, and perfect if you need a smaller, high-performance keyboard.

TLDR:It's just awesome. Recommended.General:So this is my first SS keyboard that I've tested, so I will be mostly comparing to Corsair.First and most important, the switches are really good... this keyboard should be compared/competing to Wooting mostly. Omnipoint 3.0 actuation range and general 'feel' is awesome.And before continuing, I should also note — and it's a good 'weak point' you could say — NOT EVERY SWITCH is Omnipoint, and this is more noticeable in the full version: Numpad, Arrow Keys, and Nav Keys are NOT Omnipoint. I don't know if they're brown/red switches, also not sure if OEM or another brand. Being realistic, this doesn't make too much sense.Build Quality:I find the quality just excel. I really really like the 'feel' of the keycaps, it's like you're not touching plastic. It's like some kind of metallic/rough feel but really smooth.Software:Now the top of the cake — and also issues: the software.I read all days people running into issues with GG Engine, Sonar and etc (SteelSeries Brand-Software). You should know that on Windows 11 you are very likely to experience some issue. I have W10 LTSC and I've been running really smooth, 0 issues.So, you can modify everything:RGB Config using prism, Sync RGB between devices.You also have people-made apps for game-sync with the keyboard, providing info, example:Playing LOL, sets the screen to dragon/baron timers, updates if someone slays them, sets YUIOP color depending if your teammates and you are alive or not and much more..Actuation strength from 0.1 to 4mm per individual keyYou can select groupsActivate SOCD and Rapid TriggerIt also has Protection Mode that's really usefulYou can set Meta Keys and double-level actuation (you can set a key to do two actions depending on actuation range)OLED, RGB and Feel:The OLED Screen is... well, it's just a nice thing to have. You can put gifs and it's really beautiful. It can also show game info, media info, and you have a volume wheel too. You can set actuation range from here.The RGB is really nice — I find it better than my Corsair keyboards, but that's personal preference.Wireless, latency and typing:I don't have any latency using wireless, battery duration is decent — not the best, but it gets the job. I use the dongle extension so I can charge it quickly if I have to.One final note about switches is that, IDK if it's me, but with these switches I can really feel the pressure I'm doing on the key and be precise.Wrist Rest:The magnetic wrist is solid and might feel not premium, but that's totally wrong. It has a really really NICE rubberish material and feels really comfy. The magnet doesn't even move.Profiles:Ending, you also have Quickset profiles (preset profiles made by people):Changing keys, actuation points, activating protection/rapid tap/SOCD etc. for each game, and you can set yours and make different profiles.Final Thoughts:I don't want to keep talking but I could review more aspects.It's a really nice keyboard.

Amazing keyboard, lightning fast and super easy to configure. Amazing build quality and not to noisy. It has a metal finish that feels great and looks even better.

Great keyboard, responsive, nice feel and feedback satisfaction, durable, pretty lights and wonderful click click sounds lol

The SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is a compact powerhouse that offers great convenience and reliable performance for gamers on the go. As someone who frequently travels and attends gaming events, I was specifically looking for a keyboard that could fit easily in my backpack without sacrificing functionality. The Apex Pro Mini checks that box perfectly.The compact architecture of this keyboard is truly impressive. Its smaller size allows for effortless portability, making it a breeze to carry around. Whether I'm heading to a gaming tournament or simply going to a friend's house for a LAN party, I can rely on this keyboard to accompany me without adding excessive bulk to my bag. It's a game-changer for those who value mobility and space efficiency.Another standout feature of the Apex Pro Mini is its long battery life. This keyboard has proven to be a reliable companion during extended gaming sessions. I appreciate not having to constantly worry about charging it, as it lasts for an impressively long time on a single charge. The battery life is certainly a great asset, ensuring uninterrupted gaming experiences without the hassle of frequent recharging.While the Apex Pro Mini is marketed as a mechanical gaming keyboard, I must admit that it doesn't quite deliver the satisfying tactile feedback and auditory experience that true mechanical keyboards are known for. The key switches, although responsive and precise, lack the distinctive clicky sound and the tactile sensation that enthusiasts of mechanical keyboards cherish. This omission can be disappointing for those who prioritize the authentic mechanical keyboard experience.Despite this minor drawback, the SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard is still a commendable choice for gamers who value portability and functionality. Its compact design makes it an ideal travel companion, and its long-lasting battery ensures uninterrupted gameplay. If you can overlook the absence of the traditional mechanical keyboard sound, you'll find a reliable and high-performing keyboard in the Apex Pro Mini.Disclaimer: Please note that this review is based on my personal experience and preferences. The perception of sound and tactile feedback may vary among individuals, and it's recommended to test the keyboard in person if the mechanical keyboard feel is of utmost importance to you.

The keyboard has literally like no input delay when you optimize it for what you need to do. I play Fortnite, and this increased my edit and build speed by a lot. The lights look great and are the perfect brightness (which can be adjusted) but the lights look great. The keyboard is very sturdy and heavy making sure it wont slide around when gaming. Highly recommend using the wrist rest it comes with. It's very comfortable and the perfect height. The keys feel really nice and smooth and the sound is just honestly really satisfying. When typing, it feels like the keys are floating. I got the keyboard in white and it looks great with the silver backing. 10/10 keyboard. Highly recommend.
