The SteelSeries Apex Pro Gen 3 is a gaming keyboard with nice keys and many software options.
Design and size The SteelSeries gaming keyboard has a minimalist design. The Apex Pro is made of sturdy material, which makes this keyboard resistant to impact. This gaming keyboard has a numeric block, which I personally like very much. This is why I also use the keyboard for my work. On the OLED display on the keyboard I can easily see the settings of my keyboard and with the rotary knob I can quickly change the volume of the game. I connect the keyboard via the supplied USB cable. This allows me to use the Apex Pro Gen 3 immediately.
OmniPoint 3.0 switches The SteelSeries Apex Pro Gen 3 has the latest OmniPoint 3.0 switches. Personally, I like the feel of the keys and I do not suffer from a loud click while gaming. This gaming keyboard has various key options. For example, I can set 2 actions under 1 key and I set 5 customizable key combinations, so that I can react quickly in-game. The Apex Pro Gen 3 also responds very quickly and I immediately notice when I press or release the key.
SteelSeries Engine software I personalize the SteelSeries keyboard via the SteelSeries Engine software. Here I set various settings such as the 2 actions under 1 key and the key combinations. I also set the actuation point so that I determine when the key registers and I create profiles for different game settings. The RGB lighting of the Apex Pro Gen 3 is adjustable per key. This way I choose which color the keys have. Because I have multiple SteelSeries accessories, I can also ensure that all accessories have the same RGB setting.
Do you want a gaming keyboard that responds accurately during gaming and you can fully personalize from RGB lighting to profiles? Then the Apex Pro Gen 3 is the ideal gaming keyboard for you.

The SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3 White Is a premium keyboard, and that is really reflected in the price. The price is actually a bit on the high side, buuuuuut, you get a lot in return.
I'll start with the negative. As mentioned above, the price is on the high side. That is not bad in itself, because you get a lot in return, but it can be a stumbling block to buy. The other point is the OLED screen on it. Is it fun? Yes. Do you have any use for it? No. I think it is an unnecessary addition.
That was also everything that was less positive. Furthermore, it is a wonderful keyboard! Normally I am not a fan of clicky keyboards, but the SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL Gen 3 White is a good exception. It is much less loud and actually types very pleasantly. You can adjust everything via the Steelseries GG software, including how quickly the keys respond. For example, whether they respond at 50%, or only at 100%. This was a real game changer for me. This allowed me to respond faster via the keys and it improved my gaming experience considerably. What can also be set with the OmniPoint linear switches is a double action per key. For example, you can let the “w” walk at 75%, but at 100% it is sprinting. This is really a win for gaming because you have to press fewer keys. It takes a while to get the hang of it, but once you get the hang of it, it works really well.
The design of the keyboard is very good, although that is of course a personal preference. The Steelseries GG software is excellent and you can set almost everything for the keyboard with it.
In general, I am very satisfied with the keyboard. You can set a lot, it types very nicely, it looks sleek, but is just a bit on the pricey side. Still, I would recommend the keyboard to every gamer to try it. I'm pretty sure this keyboard will be a real addition to the setup for most gamers.
