Despite the popularity of mechanical keyboards, the basis of this series are full-format keyboards with proprietary optical-mechanical Light Strike switches. An interesting alternative to them are membrane-mechanical keys, which A4 Tech began to actively use in keyboards Bloody 2020 – 21 years of release. Both technologies look interesting and are gaining momentum as an alternative to mechanical switches. Therefore, purely mechanical or membrane models in the ranks of Bloody do not come across so often.


The main charm of this series lies in the reference ratio of price and quality. Usually, the ratings of these models are in the spectrum between "not bad" and "excellent", so they seem to us a win–win option in cases when you need an inexpensive keyboard for games, but you have neither the time nor the desire to analyze the market and deal with three or four selected devices. The most affordable Bloody keyboards can be found for $20 and a half, and the most expensive model will cost a maximum of 150 evergreens. And then, it will be a rare tournament model on mechanical switches in the spirit of the Steel Series.

Bloody keyboards can be equipped with red removable keycaps for WASD keys, additional keys for macros, a multimedia panel, RGB backlight and a brush stand. The number of removable keycaps, the presence of a metal base, the degree of water protection and the complexity of the implementation of the backlight depends on each specific model and its price. The same goes for the design: if the devices a la B820R and B760 are easily confused with office peripherals, then the B314 and B318 caliber models make it clear with all their appearance what kind of dough they are made of.
