The 7G is supplied within a sizeable cardboard box, decorated in SteelSeries' trademark grey, orange and white colour scheme. The front of the box has a plastic window which gives us a glimpse of the keyboard inside without opening.
Turning the box over reveals a couple of product photos and some details about keyboard inside.
Inside the box there is very little in the way of accessories included; There is a concise user guide, a product information guide, a SteelSeries sticker and a USB – PS2 adapter.
Oh, very nice indeed. saw reviews of this before, but forgot about it. Its slightly misleading, the marketing I think,. its more a typists keyboard than a g amers keyboard I think. very few gaming gimmicks on it.
Its a beautiful looking keyboard and reminds me a little of the DAS keyboard. Well worth the money as these feel like the old IBM boards. I hate the modern day spongy boards which populate the marketplace.
When compared with microsoft and logitech gaming keyboards it seems to take a totally different focus, rather than supply screens, macro buttons and various tools to aid games, they have stripped it down and offered a fantastic system for multiple key presses and quality of key response for typists. Its an unusual product really and I admire steelseries for releasing it.
I know this has been out for some time, but I missed this completely when it was released. feels like an old IBM board? really? shall try and see if our local shop can get one in to test it out. I hate buying keyboards online, its not something you can tell will suit you until you try it.
I dont need sold on this, I love steelseries, but I agree, as a gaming keyboard it seems somewhat unusual, no macros, no real gaming options as such apart from the controller being able to handle loads of simultaneous key presses. quality is high, gimmicks are low, which I would assume means most mass market people wont actually get it.
It is expensive, but its steelseries, it goes hand in hand.
Quality keyboard, but I really dont spend that much on a board, I hardly ever use it. Would be hard for me to justify this cost. looks great, like the shape. very monolithic.
I have been using the 7G for several months now and love it to death, best keyboard I have ever owned
steelseries 7g does not support macros?
Love it!
