Your KROM keyboard view is ON

The fact is that in order to be a hybrid keyboard, touch is very effective and is possible to type quickly, and without errors, it's like a normal keyboard. Button method is longer than expected, and what displeased us is the sound of the metal at the end of each machine.

It is true that this keyboard offers nothing really new, either performance or design level, that no other keyboard already had. Even though nothing other models of this manufacturer have. However, what we really liked has been, without a doubt, its support for mobile.

Thanks to this support we will be able to have our smartphone always visible. So, we won't have to look too far into our computer, for example, to read and write WhatsApp messages. Even with the right software, we can turn our phone into a hardware container so that, while playing, we can control the performance and temperature of our PC.

The less we use the users, KROM NORTH It will be a great keyboard for typing and playing. And it has a very attractive price. However, if we are looking for users, we may miss some features.

For example, the virtual machines themselves are free and allow you to type, or press buttons on games, quickly, or in the absence of other keys dedicated to editing them using software. Users who are accustomed to using wrist rest will also be lacking in this way.

Aside from that, we are facing a keyboard with a significant amount of cash. And in addition, its mobile support feature is rarely seen on keyboards, and it is really useful every day.

For all this, we decided to give it a keyboard KROM NORTH our prize for gold, highlighting especially its good quality / price.
