Frequently asked questions

The Adjustable Actuation feature allows you to customize the sensitivity of each individual key. That means you can set keys to a higher actuation for typing or lower it for gaming, where quick response is typically needed.

The USB Passthrough is a feature that allows you to connect another device (like a mouse or a headset) directly into the keyboard. This can help in reducing cable clutter on your desk and make it easy and quick to connect and disconnect devices from your computer.

The term 'World's Fastest Keyboard' refers to the Apex Pro's unique mechanical switch design that provides the fastest reaction time and the shortest travel distance among keyboards in the market. Essentially, it improves your response time whether you are gaming or typing because the keys register the input quicker.

The OLED screen on the Apex Pro acts as a mini-dashboard on your keyboard. You can use it to adjust settings, keep track of system information, and even display custom images or gifs.

🚀 Abunda's Overview

This is our summary and key points to consider based on customer reviews.


The SteelSeries Apex mechanical keyboard is hailed for its robust and durable construction, and user-friendly features for gaming. It also comes with customizable RGB lighting, programmable keys, and macros. However, there are concerns about the key layout being slightly narrower which may affect typing accuracy.

Pros

  • 🌟 Exceptional build quality and durability.
  • 🎮 Affords high personalization for your gaming style with programmable keys, macros, and customizable RGB lighting.
  • 👨‍💻 Ergonomic design made for long gaming sessions.
  • 🎹 Good tactile and audible sensations from keys.
  • 🔧 Compatible with SteelSeries Engine, an intuitive software for keyboard personalization.

Cons

  • 😥 The narrower key layout may affect typing accuracy.
  • 😕 Heavy typing may wear out the finish on the keys rather quickly.
  • 🔌 Cord is non-detachable and kind of stiff.
  • 😒 The keyboard has two USB plugs, one of which is oddly placed on the left side, which may not be ideal for right-handed technology users.

Should I Buy It?

If absolute typing accuracy and aesthetics are not your top priorities and you're a gamer looking for a reliable, highly customized, and ergonomic piece, SteelSeries Apex mechanical keyboard could be well worth the consideration despite its high-end price tag.


  • In love with this keyboard
I love this keyboard. Been daily driving this for months now. And I love this keyboard. The customization is amazing but does require steelseries software. But the software is incredible. It comes with steelseries sonar which by itself is one of my favorite computer applications ever. I love the keys. Feels just like a traditional mechanical keyboard but with a more satisfying sound in my opinion. Keyboard is very high quality. I’ve had it for close to 6 months and have had zero issues. Includes a USB pass through which is very handy. The usb cable is super high quality. The included wrist wrest is magnetic for easy removal and ease of use. Just snap it on and it isn’t sliding anywhere. Colors are great. The rgb has endless presets and customization options. Their software isn’t intrusive or bloatware like some companies (razer) I love all of my steelseries products. And I want more!!! ... show more

  • Pricey and awesome mechanical keyboard
When a rogue Win 10 update took out my Gskill KM780 RGB unexpectedly, I had to pull the trigger fast on a new KB instead of having to endure using my spare membrane board. After a solid day of research, I took a chance on the Apex Pro. Coming from Cherry MX Browns, I had some reservations about OmniPoint. The Browns have a tactile point which I liked. I had tried MX Reds, and wasn't a fan of the linear feel. With these Omni switches being linear, I was unsure but somehow compelled to pass on the Apex 7 with MX Browns and go Pro. TBH, I was half expecting to return it. Needless to say.... I was surprised when I hooked this up! First off... dat switch. Wow. SUPER smooth. The inherent scratchiness of linear MX switches is GONE. It feels like the keycaps are just sort of floating over the brushed aluminum base. The adjustment ability is unique compared to most mechanical boards, bringing a true Hall Effect switch to people. (Look up Hall Effect... gets a little complex for explanation here, but very cool) Actuation can be adjusted from a light brush on the keys (probably overkill) to making the switch bottom out completely. This can also be done on a per key basis. Lot of range to play with! Another key strength... the RGB lighting. Its nothing short of fantastic. The raised caps let the bright and vibrant lighting spill over the board itself, creating a very cool and clean lighting effect. Even for those who don't much care about RGB lighting, it's very tastefully done here. Typing is unreal. I spent 15 mins just typing random weirdness on a word doc just for them feels when I first hooked it up. And for some reason, I find myself with a lot less errors compared to old board with the Browns. I'd commonly get keypress duplication (as if I held the key down) with that switch, and with these Omni switches, it doesn't happen anymore. Of course, these Omni switches are much quieter than the tactile Browns given their linear nature. Not much bad to say here. Some minor gripes would be somewhat "meh" software from Steelseries and the keycaps being ABS instead of something like double-shot PBT caps. The latter feel much sturdier and more premium, and I suppose one could buy some PBT caps if it was a huge issue. Not sure how that would affect the lighting though. The small B&W OLED screen in the upper right doesn't add much in reality, but its kind of a geeky fun thing that you can customize with whatever you want. It does have some functionality with brightness and other features, which is nice to have versus having to use the software. Also, only the primary keys have Omni switches. All the F keys, num pad, and extra function keys are on a generic linear switch that feels good enough. Would be nice to have all keys on omni switches, but it makes sense from a cost perspective and isn't a big deal to me. All in all, fantastic keyboard that towers over my old Gskill in every respect. I really wish MS terrible updates hadn't bricked old board, but I guess things happen for a reason. If you have the cash and want a great analog-based mechanical keyboard with adjustable hall effect switches.... this is the one for you. Very hard to fault this board. Steelseries done good here. ... show more

  • Very impressive high quality product
The Steelseries Apex Pro is a superb keyboard. (Apology for the superlative!). It has been my favorite for the 10 days during which I tried seven other brands of keyboards. The typing was my easiest and best with this. I found out how much the keyboard wrist pad is useful. This, and other brands, I tried are for committed gamers. I have never played a single game, so you might wonder why I want it. This keyboard is more rugged, more resistant to passionate keyboard pounding during games. This can, and I believe, it does give it extra durability. Of course, durability and feature come with a price, but I have never regretted the keyboard design and manufacturing on that account. I do not want to paraphrase the features which are more than plenty in the ads. I like them all. The keyboard lighting is exceptional compared to others I have tested. My case has to do with guide and instruction the manufacturer publishes with the product. I must say the worst I had been exposed to was Logitech, even though I owned their products for several decades. In their case, it is a flimsy 2-page paper, where essential Logitech write-up shares its space with 9-10 other languages. My primary use of any keyboard is office type. My primary interest in the high-end gaming keyboards is the ability to create and use macros. Those macros can be used in non-gaming software, such as MS Office, Adobe, Movavi, and just about anything else. That was the place where my problem started. Inadequate documentation is common. Manufacturers count on the internet users to provide instructions for any aspect of the advertised features. If you cannot find what you are looking for you are ready for time consuming guesses. Actually, Steelseries Apex Pro is amongst the better ones. Unfortunately, there are those of us users, who had to be spoon fed the instructions despite decades of computer experience. I give Steelseries five stars, even though my initial bad guesses with the keyboard necessitated a return. But guess, the replacement is none other than Steelseries. ... show more

  • Get keyboard
This is my first somewhat mechanical keyboard, as well as magnetic switch keyboard board and it’s the best keyboard I’ve ever used. I’ve played around with some of the settings briefly just to set it up for a very responsive typing experience I’m very impressed with the key feel, response and noise on the mag switches and same goes for the cherry Mx reds in the rest of the keyboard. You can set it to as little as a wiggle of the keys triggers a press. I set it for 4mm for standard typing ... show more

  • Really just a perfect keyboard
Honestly have no complaints. When pressing a key it feels like silky smooth butter, the rgb is really cool, size is pretty big and nice with a solid base and good durability. As expected of an absolute unit of a keyboard for the price it is. It is pretty heavy for keyboard standards though, so beware of that if you need a lighter keyboard. ... show more
