Cosmic Byte CB-GK-37 Firefly TKL Mechanical Gaming Keyboard | Per-Key RGB | 3 PIN Swappable Outemu Red Switches | Upgraded with Detachable USB-C Port | Macro & Software Support (White)

The Cosmic Byte Firefly is a very good keyboard indeed. Pros- *Build quality- It is a very solid and well built device with the top part in steel and the bottom part in plastic. It is pretty heavy but it is a mechanical keyboard so no surprises there. *Accuracy- The keyboard is very accurate for typing. *RGB-RGB is definitely very good. It has a selection of many single colors and mixed ones too. *Hot-swappable keys- The keyboard has hot swappable keys which means that the switch itself can be replaced with other Outemu switches. I'm not sure if other brands switches can be used. Cons- *Typing sound- If you are going to buy this keyboard and type a lot, do not buy the blue switch version. I really underestimated the sounds of the blue switch. It sounds like an actual typewriter. It is pretty much annoying as it is making too much noise. The red switch version can be better if you type a lot as it is more quiet. Also, other people may find it disturbing. So buy blue switches only if you have a separate room. *Dedicated Caps lock indicator-It actually does Caps lock and scroll lock indicators in the keys itself, but it is not visible if the RGB color is white as the indicator colors are also white which can be confusing. So I would suggest Cosmic Byte to put dedicated Caps lock and Scroll lock indicators. *Portability- The keyboard is huge and heavy which makes it pretty hard to carry it around. The packaging they sent the keyboard in was very good. It came in a cardboard box inside a sealed bag. Overall a very good keyboard for 2000-2500₹.

Good for the price, lasted me for 2 years, now i only have issue with W key and RGB behaving weird but for the price it was good back then but now you have better options and also its upgraded to hot swapable switches.

Really good for the price. I could have gotten the Zebronics wireless one at this price but went with this because of the space in between each keys. Also this comes with two additional red switches.

Usually most budget brands import and re-brand products. This time with the "firefly" TKL keyboard, Cosmic byte they seem to have done it correct this time around. What you get for nearly 2,000 rupees : 1. Solid TKL keyboard 2. Clicky blue switches 3. RGB for days 4. Braided cable Why should you get this? 1. TKL design - Difficult to come by. Most of the budget boards are full size. 2. 2K - 2.2k is a good price with 1 year warranty. Can't beat VFM. 3. Individual addressable RGB for each key 4. Standard ANSI layout (pet peeve) - Unlocks keycap customization options. Why should you skip ? 1. If you have an unlimited budget, look somewhere else 2. If you/the people you live with - don't like clicky noises from your keyboard 3. The key-caps might seem too cheap and gamery for some folks Things to look out in the long run - 1. Software support - The potential of lighting profiles is not completely tapped. The default lighting profiles are very limited. CB should provide the lighting software. 2. There is no manual provided with the product. This is a easy fix, hope they look into this when shipping it in the future. 3. Otemu blues look like a good choice on paper, need to check how their lifespan and durability in the long run.

I purchased one of the best mechanical keyboards in July 2021, but it just stopped working all of the keys at once. I'm not sure why.

Really impressed with the build and typing experience. The keys feel tactile and responsive, with a satisfying click that’s not too loud. The backlighting looks nice and adds to the overall look, especially at night. I’ve used it for both gaming and work, and it performs well in both cases. Feels durable and well-built. If you’re looking for a good mechanical keyboard without spending too much, this is a solid choice.

I’ve been using the Cosmic Byte Firefly CB-GK-16 (Blue switch variant) for about 2 months now. Honestly, I didn’t expect this level of quality for the price. The build feels sturdy, with a metal top plate that gives it some good weight doesn’t slide around. The switches are Outemu Blues, so yeah, they’re clicky and loud. If you’re into that tactile typing feel, you’ll love it. Typing feels satisfying, and key response is crisp. Definitely not silent though, so maybe not the best for shared rooms or late-night use unless your roommates are cool with it. The RGB lighting is bright and clean. Tons of modes to cycle through using the keyboard shortcuts, even if the software isn't the most polished. It’s tenkeyless, which is perfect for my setup. Saves space without sacrificing comfort or usability. I use it for both work and gaming (Valorant, Apex), and it holds up really well. Nothing has gone wrong till this day Couple of small things: The keycaps are decent, but don’t expect premium material. They're fine for daily use though. Blue switches are loud not a downside for me, but something to be aware of.
