By utilizing the most powerful PS / 2 damping system ever created for a gaming keyboard, SteelSeries 7G redefines "anti-ghosting" by supporting more simultaneous key presses as there are keys on the keyboard.

The keyboard has two PS / 2 and USB connectors.

Steelseries has us accustomed to using their corporate colors on their boxes: black and red. As soon as we receive the box, we can see the keyboard layout is in Spanish.

7G overview.

Rear.

The keyboard does not have pins to adjust its height. But it has a preset height at its base. Its adherence on surfaces is perfect.

The Steelseries 7G incorporates a HUB with 2 USB ports, audio input and output. Perfect to recharge our mobile, connect a USB stick and MP3 headphones.

Steelseries has used a premium quality braided cable. We have found it to be quite flexible and easy to route.

The USB, PS / 2 connector, headphone and microphone output are gold-plated for better signal strength.

The Steelseries 7G uses bright white LEDs. From a side view they are not too annoying, but if you stare at it they will stay engraved on our retinas.

The steelseries keyboard will allow us to perform multimedia functions and number shortcuts with our PC.

The keyboard uses Black Cherry MX Black keys. These types of connectors are best for playing, because they are linear. That is, you have to press all the way down to perform the keystroke;).

Market placement is easy. We simply need to drop the frame onto the keyboard on a solid surface. Although I would have liked the palm rest to have a little more padding, for greater comfort.

Its multimedia features include two USB outputs, headphone and microphone outputs. Very useful to connect our mobile, pendrive and our gaming or MP3 helmets. Although we hope in future reviews the incorporation of USB 3.0…

What has bothered me the most is the power of its white LEDs (Num, Caps and Scroll). These are very bright and are recorded at night on our retinas. We would also have liked the incorporation of a management software for macros and other tasks.

In short, the Steelseries 7G is the best keyboard on the gaming market. Although not all users decide to buy it for its high price.
