The 84-keys of the Apex Pro TKL Wireless feel more reasonably spaced out as a result of the Function Row and Navigation Keys receiving added separation from the main block, and it turns out that those keys were the only ones that I actually missed on the Mini, which are thankfully all present and accounted for here. “At 960 grams (just over 2 pounds), the Apex Pro TKL Wireless feels similarly weighty, dense and expensive as SteelSeries’ more compact keyboards…” Having used full-sized keyboards for most of my life as well as just coming off a review of the Apex 9 Mini, my two biggest fears going into this review were that I would find the key spacing similarly cramped and that the loss of the NUM pad would negatively impact my typing experience, but neither situation proved to be the case. The following review is for the wireless version, which for the sake of clarity I’ll refer to going forward as the Apex Pro TKL Wireless.įully committed to providing the internal space required to add a rechargeable battery without drastically altering SteelSeries’ now well-established TKL form-factor, the Apex Pro TKL Wireless discards the thick, heavy wire and three-way underside cable routing of its predecessor for a much lighter and detachable braided USB-C to USB-A cable that elegantly plugs into the top of the keyboard on the upper left side.Īt 960 grams (just over 2 pounds), the Apex Pro TKL Wireless feels similarly weighty, dense and expensive as SteelSeries’ more compact keyboards, but there’s unquestionably a lot more room for one’s fingers to move around in. Unlike its predecessor, the new Apex Pro TKL actually comes in two flavours this time around, a traditional wired-only version and brand-new, dual-wireless model that supports the Danish manufacturer’s patented 2.4GHz Quantum 2.0 protocol as well as the Bluetooth 5.0 standard.
Hot on the heels of the Apex 9 Mini, SteelSeries has launched the long-awaited follow-up to it’s 2019 Edition Apex Pro TKL Mechanical Keyboard, appropriately named the SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL (2023 Edition).
