Keyboard Inspection After Delivery
Before signing: confirm the outer box seal is intact — look for original Evetech courier tape or manufacturer sealing. After opening: (1) Connect via USB to a PC immediately. (2) Open an online key-tester and tap every key including function row and media keys. (3) Test spacebar, Backspace, and Enter for stabiliser rattle — a rattle-free new board is the standard. (4) Check per-key RGB if present — dead zones on delivery day qualify for warranty. (5) For wireless: pair Bluetooth and test at 3 metres for dropout. Gateron Red switches should feel smooth with 45 g actuation; Outemu Blues click audibly at 50 g.
