Despite its compact dimensions and the lack of special features like macro keys, this is a well-designed and ergonomic keyboard. The coating on the individual keycaps is great and the CherryMX switches provide precise tactile feedback. We particularly enjoyed the presence of a keypuller inside the box. Despite being a rather basic and cheap piece of accessory it is a great help if you want to remove the individual keycaps. Apart from that there is the backlight, which can be configured without software. |

Manufacturing quality / Ergonomics | + | - | |
From the ergonomics point of view, the keyboard is comfortable to use, but a wrist rest would have been appreciated. The Masterkeys Pro L gaming keyboard features a standard layout and it is ideal for all those gamers who frequently visit LAN parties or do not wish the keyboard to take up to much space on their desk. Despite the fact that this is a gaming keyboard, the Masterkeys Pro L doesn't offer any special button or macro keys, there are only a few buttons with two functions. The build quality and the materials used is simply excellent. Last but not least, we really like the grip and the coating of the individual keycaps. The design is a subjective aspect, but we think that the RGB backlight it's absolutly well made. The backlight is clear and you can choose from different modes without any trouble. |

Software | + | - | |
The software is essential but has everything you need, it is free and fast to get, since it's ony 15 MB you have to download from CM's website. We do like the fact, that macros can be programmed to each and every key on the Masterkeys and apart from that also the backlight is highly customizable. | - Easy to use - Customizability | ||
Recommendation / Price | + | - | |
A closer look at the price of the Masterkeys Pro L reveals that you have to pay 152 Euro in order enjoy this keyboard. For this price you get a gaming Keyboard, which features mechanical switches and a very high build quality. Despite all this good features we think that the price is very steep. |
