Looks nice, good price. Can't buy without more info though, like which keys you can use wirelessly and which ones you have to plug in for, since it's 75% wireless. Sounds inconvenient, or best for some very specific use case scenario.

I believe the 75% refers to the form factor of the keyboard: ie 100% is full size with keypad and arrow keys on the side

It doesn't mean that you can only use 75% of the keys wirelessly

I think it means wireless only works 75% of the time.
That's a feature that increases efficiency and extends battery life if it doesn't transmit 25% of the time. I guess I'll take a chance and hope the non-wireless keys are the ones I don't use, or the punctuation keys, since half of the internet seems to be using such a keyboard already.

This is a fairly good deal if you like black switches. Even as a platform to mod, $40 is a steal, but more commonplace the past few years.

I'm typing on a version of this right now. (I'm not sure if I ended up with the black switches or something else.) As a keyboard in terms of feel, etc, it's totally decent.
I will say, the 2.4ghz wireless connection is "fine." I ended up having to move it to a different port, because my USB 3.0 ports & cables (even without using USB 3.0 peripherals) were causing interference.
Also, one of the switches was intermittent, BUT, it comes with several spare switches, and a decent puller tool.
Worth noting: DON'T GET IT IF YOU'RE A PROGRAMMER without looking closely at the layout. Like some (but not all) 75% layouts, there's no End key. Fn+PgDn does it, and Fn+U does Printscreen, but, it's a bit iffy for my taste. (Also, definitely no VIA or QMK here)

great keyboard for the money. I am typing on it after buying from this deal. It feels like a tank, very solidly built.

any expert here can chime in? is the latency an issue playing games wirelessly? I mean, I can extend the keyboard wires but if it's miniscule, i'd would just go wireless.

No issue in CS... not sure why you'd think it would be an issue when it's 1000hz polling. It's no HE board but I'm not competing at the top level.

It should be fine if you're a programmer because typing "$" takes you to the end of the line. Or "ctrl-E" if you prefer emacs.

edit: this is (kind of) a joke, just in case that wasn't clear
