was in the market for a new apex pro because mine is starting to have problems after all these years. had no idea that they released a new version. super excited to finally try it out, its on the way now from amazon
3:18 you can’t hot swap the switches on the Apex Pro, or Apex keyboards at all. They’re soldered in and that tool is only a keycap puller not a switch puller.
After using this keyboard for six months, when I switch it to 0.2mm sensitivity, the keyboard becomes overly sensitive. This means that even when I'm not touching the keys, the keyboard continues to register key presses.
i always wanted the apex pro but when i was ready to buy it i dont wanted the old dont liked it and the 2023 is just beautiful but after 4 months 3 keybinds just spamed there is no fix but i thought i was unlucky and got a new one again and the same aber 4 months now i cant anymore
should i get the apex pro tkl 2023 or apex pro mini? both have omnipoint 2.0 but i dont really care abt the screen because i just need the best keyboard for gaming and work..
hey i have the money now but im trying to find the best best, i recently saw another keyboard claiming to be better called the "ROG azoth 75%" should i get that or stick to the steelseries apex pro mini?@@kova_tech
I cant find a version of the apex pro 2023 full size. Can you pin the links of all the different sizes including the mini and full size of the apex pro 2023 please
I purchased a new APEX PRO TKL. It is 2 weeks and now I face this strange issue. When I connect the Keyboard, it is randomnly typing on windows. On Windows, it open some apps randomnly. Even when I am not pressing any keys, it is randomnly typing something. The apps on windows gets closed and open randonmnly. It is doing something on its own. I have no idea what to do.... Whenever I connect the keyboard, it is not easy to control any keys as it start to type randomnly. I did Factory Reset and it did not help. I removed all keys manually and checked if something is stuck and did cleaning, but this also did not help. Anyone faced same issues? Any hints to solve this problem is helpful.
I’m experiencing same issue, in fact its a common issue with this keyboard apperantly. Sadly there’s no fix. Don’t think steelseries is even aware of this issue. Such shame
Just opened mine brand new from the box and have the same issue, two keys a different colour to the rest all the time. Not sure if i need to return, did you find a way to fix the issue?
Greetings.. I have this keyboard and it is not compatible with PS5. Unfortunately because I bought it to play on my PS5. It recognizes it as a mouse and no way for it to work. If anyone knows the solution I appreciate it.
do you know if I can change the switches on it that's the only thing that might be bothering me about it just how the switches sound otherwise great video
As someone who has owned the keyboard since launch i have this to say; The keyboard is overpriced for what you get, actuation changing and the rgb settings kick ass and that might be the extent of it, it is super durable and has zero evidence of wear over a year with the exception of the arm rest not staying connected as it did when i first got it, it really only has 2 small magnets
are the switches hot-swappable? other keyb. brands say that if magnetic swithch used then it is hot-swappable by default but I didn't see that on Steelseries website.

Great review. Straight to the point without hyperbole.
was in the market for a new apex pro because mine is starting to have problems after all these years. had no idea that they released a new version. super excited to finally try it out, its on the way now from amazon
Do u liked having it for all of those years?
How do you like it? And how long did your last one hold up for?
@@bdog6282 it’s different, but it’s really nice. doesn’t take long to get used to. my last one still works but i used it for 2-3 years without issue
@@bdog6282I had the original tkl for 4 years and still works beautiful. New one on the way tho cause this bad boy beat up over 4 years

u can
Factually incorrect. They are hotswappable.
So we are lying now😊
After using this keyboard for six months, when I switch it to 0.2mm sensitivity, the keyboard becomes overly sensitive. This means that even when I'm not touching the keys, the keyboard continues to register key presses.
Oh no what r u gonna do now that they could be re-adjusted for .1!?!?
@rarityd I don't think this is a good keyboard , same price u have better choice
speed wise there is no better choice. @@ggez66642
@@ggez66642 like what?
I’d go for a wooting if there was a TKL version. It’s too bad there’s only mini and full size@@ggez66642
This is a great review, thank you!
how have u got only 16k subscibers i watched all ur apex pro tkl videos and u are the only one who did an great software review
very good vid, this helped me make my decision. subbed 💪
Thanks for the video
Brilliant video man keep it up!
great video, keep it up! 💜
Thanks!
Subbed! Will definitely be getting this soon to replace my cheap mechanical keyboard.
Thanks! Yeah this is a nice keyboard, you'll definitely love it 👌
Link to software customisation does not appear on top when you say it after 6:40 . Thank you for a good review
honestly id recommend against it i bought mine for over $200 and in less than a year the LEDs started failing loosing the blue colours
Thanks kova!

Finally a good video that I understand
Is there a full size 2023/24 model coming?
Can you just set all the RGB to just all white?
Is connected with a USB C to C cable or is it a usb c to a?
How long is the cable
This is the wired version right ?
How do I change the bar on the keyboard so it just dosent pause music and change volume
should i get the apex pro tkl 2023 or apex pro mini? both have omnipoint 2.0 but i dont really care abt the screen because i just need the best keyboard for gaming and work..
I would go with a mini personally. Like you said, the screen isn't necessary, and I like having my mouse and keyboard not separated so far apart
@@kova_tech which is nicer to type on and play with?
@@3rr0rsanz38 mini keyboards are more comfortable for me personally
@@kova_tech alright
hey i have the money now but im trying to find the best best, i recently saw another keyboard claiming to be better called the "ROG azoth 75%" should i get that or stick to the steelseries apex pro mini?@@kova_tech
can you use the apex Pro wireless dongle to turn it from wired to wireless?
No, you have to have a battery xD
did he just fart at 3:25?
I cant find a version of the apex pro 2023 full size. Can you pin the links of all the different sizes including the mini and full size of the apex pro 2023 please
great video
Thanks 🙂
Can you please test it with apple silicon mac to see what things aren't working?
4:29 I am right, only the 60% block has the good switches, this means I overpay for reds thx stellseries xD
theyre omni point the fastest swithces in the world
The Mini version is also missing the function-keys.
Doesnt matter there are keys for that
Even the TKL version doesn't have the same exact switch on all keys?! You've gotta be shitting me

Worth buying or wait for a 2024 version?
I just got mine and I love it so far :)
what 2024 version? its almost 2025
Why are two of my keys different color then all of the rest??
Just opened mine brand new from
the box and have the same issue, two keys a different colour to the rest all the time. Not sure if i need to return, did you find a way to fix the issue?
@@HarryXD-du8zq nah bro what worked for me i went to the automatically done presets from the program and they all turned the color i wanted
Finally review

Mine didnt come with the key puller
U probably got the wireless one
My OLED screen has deep scratches just from wiping dust off of it
Make up brush or very soft paint brush saves rubbing in the dirt and grit then safe to wipe with 100% alcohol
Of course lol, cheers
"this is a keyboard for pro's"
well shi-
heads to best buy
06:26 and you know Steel series steal this future to Wooting Brand !!

“Steelseries” and it’s all plastic 😂
Yea but it they make the best keyboards
@@Johnny_Boy71 I have one, I know they do. Problem is my Corsair from 2014 is made with better materials than my apex pro lol.

No
Bro forgot to mention that the F1, arrow keys and the keys above are red switches not magnetic lma9
