"Fnatic claims that the keyboard is specifically designed with eSports in mind"
Oh, really? If that was the case you'd think Func would have said the same about their KB-460. They called it a gaming keyboard but no mention about esports anywhere on their product page.
Fnatic bought Func and rebranded their mice and keyboard while sadly discontinuing an excellent headset. Not sure if the Fnatic headset is just another rebrand or something they actually designed.
Why does it matter whether the company says a product is designed for "eSports" or "gaming" at all? That's just sales-speak and doesn't have an impact on the actual feature set and it certainly won't make the switches under the keys somehow better to slap one label or another on the package. CherryMX switches with x color will work the exact same way regardless.
Anandtech, we have an issue about UI... The 5 LOWEST readings are pale red, and then the bright red are the ones over 10% HIGHER than the expected value? Also, why is green something that deviates more than 10% from the specs? The colours should be bright blue, blue, pale red, bright red ranging from <90% specs to >110% specs. Or anything else that is coherent with the message they convey.
Nice review in general, I only wish there were more 60% (tenkeyless without home/end/page up down) mechanical keyboards on the market :( A full keyboard forces my (mouse) arm too far from the body or forces me to have the keyboard on my left side when typing.
Nice review, if not the most interesting subject material, but that seems to be typical of Anandtech. We should be grateful they are reviewing anything at all these days. The tweets are very active though, yippee! Back to sleep now Anandtech :)
It's a rebranded K-460. A keyboard that was sold a lot cheaper under the Func brand. Got one when it was still Func. It's a great keyboard, but if it's worth the new price when it was previously cheaper with another logo on it, I don't know.

Another keyboard review.... BoringClutchCargo - Friday, December 2, 2016 - link
This looks exactly like the Rosewill keyboard I've been using for the past few years. It's been great, I'd never go back.owcraftsman - Friday, December 2, 2016 - link
