  • The only con, if I have to look for this device is the price it is offered at even after a year of launch.At the price of Rs. 14000 as of today, Elite RGB is an expensive device, but a perfect mechanical gaming keyboard to own. It will be out of reach for...

  • Well designed, Easy to get familiar, Sturdy build
  • At Rs 11,000, the HyperX Alloy Elite brings several features that Alloy FPS and other slightly pocket-friendly gaming keyboards lack. You get one of the best and fastest response and really accurate keys, which every gamer wishes. Although it left us aski...

  • Media shortcuts are very handy, Wrist rest is a nice bonus, Plug-and-play brings convenience
  • Cable is thick and undetachable, Wrist rest could use a different method of attaching to keyboard
  • The HyperX Alloy Elite is essentially the Alloy FPS that's designed to sit on a desk and stay there for the foreseeable future, rather than being carried around every so often. They're very similar, but the small differences between them make all the diff...

  • Dynamic lighting looks fantastic, Impressive build and quality
  • Software needs UI and UX changes
  • For what its worth, this variant of Alloy Elite doesn't differ much from the original. What they just basically added here are RGB lights as opposed to Alloy Elite's all red-lighted keys. Alloy Elite RGB sells for PhP8,9995, and the non-RGB variant costs...

  • Until today, I am still using the HyperX Alloy Elite keyboard, simply because it's a no-fuss and straight forward keyboard. No need to mess with any settings and it feels really solid and sturdy. I can't say that this is the most premium experience we had...
