Affordable and attractive

The keyboard of the Taiwanese brand Genius is one of the most popular models for gaming. It attracts gamers not only with its affordable price, but also with its stylish, aggressive (typical for gaming solutions) appearance.

Genius Scorpion K215 is almost completely made in black, and 8 keys in demand in games are made blue: WASD and arrows. The front surfaces are mostly matte and not easily soiled (with the exception of a small glossy insert of a trapezoidal shape). The backlight is not adjustable in brightness and is a gradient of seven colours from green to blue. It is provided purely for beauty, since the key values themselves (layout) are not highlighted, and they are not visible in the dark.

Correct layout and additional keys

The Genius Scorpion K215 buttons are not shifted relative to the standard layout, they have the usual location and size (long Shift and Backspace, “two-story” Enter). The key travel is quiet and quite soft, especially for a membrane keyboard.

There are 10 additional keys (for multimedia control and surfing the web), which are active by default — without additional software.

Durable and water resistant

The keyboard is made of plastic, and the button switches are additionally reinforced and, according to the manufacturer, are designed for 2 million clicks. There are water drain holes on the bottom, so the Genius Scorpion K215 is a waterproof model and can survive a spill. There are a pair of rubber bands on the base to prevent slipping. But they are absent on the legs, and given the small total weight of the product, the likelihood of movement on the table during games is quite high.

The keyboard is equipped with a flexible and soft cable for connecting to USB, but its length, according to many users, is not too long (1.5 m), which can be attributed to the shortcomings of the model.

All in all, Genius Scorpion K215 is an inexpensive gaming option with a distinctive design that can be recommended to beginner gamers and those who treat gaming as just one of their hobbies.
