Good mid range keyboard
This is a nice keyboard. It has a clean and almost retro look to it. The side printed caps are nice and help with the clean look. The keys feel good and the action is nice. It's not very loud but it is definitely noticeable. The included cable is nice. It is braided nicely and has nice reinforced ends. The connector seems like overkill but this seems to be more for aesthetics than function. The coil does give an interesting look and allows for some slack while not having messy cable. But the nice thing is the keyboard can be used wirelessly so the cable is optional if it's just not for you. Once connected the keyboard responds great and can be configured with Attack Sharks software. The RGB is not as bright as others I have used but that's OK with me. It's a nice value keyboard that puts it better than a cheap low end, but lacks functions of the higher end. If you want a nice looking and functional keyboard that feels good to work on but you aren't necessarily into gaming, this is a good budget option.

Fantastic for Gaming
This keyboard is a great addition to my gaming setup. The customizable RGB lighting and hot-swappable switches are excellent for personalizing my experience. It's also comfortable for long gaming sessions, making it a good investment.

Great Keyboard
This is a great option for keyboards. I really like the feel of the keys and the way it fits to my hands for both regular use and gaming. I'm not the greatest touch typer, so it's a little strange when I look down at the keys to have the letters/numbers printed on the front of each key rather than the top, but that was easy enough to get used to. It does mean that the keys will ot get as worn over time from gaming. I do own several keyboards that have had the wasd keys show some heavy wear over the years, and I feel this design helps avert that concern. The keys give a good amount of push back without being too stiff. Overall a great keyboard, and I'm glad I picked it up.

Weird cable, awesome keyboard
I'm sure there is some reason for the unusual cable, but it escapes me. Fortunately, it is optional. That aside, the keyboard is extremely nice. It would seem that a great deal of thought went into its design and an equal measure of attention into its construction. It is a joy to use and looks great with my retro PC build. Highly recommend.

feels great
I was pretty impressed, the keys on this keyboard feels really nice and smooth, it's probably one of my favorite feeling keyboards, and the sound it makes is also great.I really like that there are so many options and ways to connect it, I usually use a wire but it's always good to have the option to have it wireless.Now for the not so good, I only had 2 things that I didn't really like.1. I didn't really like the design, i was hoping it whold be more clean, it kinda looks like an old retro one, but it didn't match my setup2. The RGB lights are a good addition, but they are pretty dim unless the lights are off, they are not too noticeable

Good but not great
As a PC gamer I wanted to try out a new mechanical keyboard as my other is now a little dated, so I ordered the M86 Attack Shark. When it arrived I loved the premium feel it has. It has a good weight to it and the keys have a very satisfying thud to them as you depress and release a key.Set up was easy. It has a couple of switches on the back, one to select either Windows or Mac and one that selects the connectivity option; leave it in the middle for USB connectivity or to the left or right to select Bluetooth or 2.4ghz connections. If you leave it on USB, the power will not come on until you plug it in with the provided 2 piece cable. Select either Bluetooth or 2.4ghz and the power comes on automatically. To use the 2.4ghz you will need to plug in the USB dongle connector which is conveniently located behind the left hand flip out stand underneath. I like that it is secured by a magnet so it won't accidentally fall out.As far as USB connectivity goes, I have to say I'm not a fan of the coiled cable, or the aviator style metal connector. A long straight single piece cable would be preferrable, I really don't see the need for the connector? it makes zero sense. Any time you split a cable in two, it degrades the signal output (albeit minimally) to the connected device. That being said all connectivity options do work well, and I didn't notice any input lag from the keyboard to my computer using any connection methods.The lighting seems pretty basic and you have to use keyboard shortcuts to change the color schemes, of which it appears there are only a handful. Also, the keys are only backlit, so if you are playing in a dark environment finding a specific key is challenging. The letters on the keycaps themselves do not illuminate.The sellers photos seem to indicate that their is an accompanying app that goes with the keyboard that allows a lot of customization, however there is no mention of it in the instructions or on the box. A QR code with a link to the software would have been a great idea, also to online instructions, as the supplied instructions are printed so small I had to read them with a magnifying glass.Overall, I spent a few days using the keyboard for basic word processing and it works great. I tried gaming with it and it still worked great, but illuminated key caps would have been helpful to identify the keys used in my game.At $65.99 which is the price at time of my review, I feel the keyboard offers reasonable value for money, The instructions could do with being in a larger print, or have an option to be able to view them online. Plus lose the two piece cable, especially the coiled part. The listing claims that the aviator style connection gives a stable and fast connection, it very well may do, but a solid one piece cable that doesn't use any connector in the middle provides a much more stable and reliable connection.
