If you're looking for a premium gaming keyboard for yourself or perhaps as a Christmas gift, then this deal on a new TKL (tenkeyless) keyboard with Red mechanical switches and a built-in OLED display is a pretty good one. The beautiful-looking SteelSeries Apex 7 Ghost TKL mechanical keyboard is available at Best Buy for just $99 - saving $50 off of the retail MSRP of $149.
The SteelSeries Apex 7 Ghost TKL is a quality gaming keyboard, with plenty of premium features that make it worth a look when it has a sub-$100 price tag. We haven't reviewed this particular model of the Apex 7, but, we have reviewed its bigger brother - the SteelSeries Apex 7. In that review, we noted our appreciation for its RGB support, premium magnetic wrist rest, and sturdy aluminum frame construction - but felt its OLED display did not add anything significant to the experience if not configured correctly. We also thought the original asking price was too high, but with a third-off, this is a much more attractive proposition.
The SteelSeries Ghost TKL comes complete with double shot PBT pudding keycaps on Red SteelSeries QX2 Mechanical RGB switches which are linear with a 2mm actuation point and a 50 million keypress lifespan. The keys support 100% anti-ghosting and have 84 N-Key rollover to support simultaneous keypresses and not miss an input - invaluable on a gaming keyboard. The OLED display can be configured to show anything from your volume levels to Discord speakers, or even just a funky animation.
Other features of the SteelSeries Apex 7 Ghost include dedicated media controls, USB passthrough, three-way cable routing for personalizing your setup location, a soft detachable wrist rest with magnetic connectors for easy adding and removal when necessary, and customizable per-key RGB lighting options via SteelSeries Engine - SteelSeries' custom peripheral software engine.
