A gaming keyboard is a dedicated competition of gaming accessories that focus on low to zero latency, reliability, and superior comfort to enable long hours of gaming. This is easy enough to throw gamers into a black hole of clones and features, some of which are simply not needed. For a gaming keyboard, three factors are most important. These are Responsiveness, Reliability, and Gaming support features.

Responsiveness reduces latency; actions are performed in the blink of an eye. This gives gamers an edge over others, allowing them to perform at the speed they desire. Since gaming keyboards are expensive hardware, it is a necessary factor to buy ones that can stay on the desk for years. This is where the reliability of the construction comes into the picture. Last but not least, features to enhance gaming such as macro keys, LEDs for flashing effects, media controls, etc. influence the purchasing decision.

We had the chance to try such a model that has everything in it. Thanks to Adata we had the chance to try the "XPG Summoner". We shared this keyboard with several gamers and collected their feedback. They are collected in this review that will help you to get more insightful information about this model.

XPG Summoner comes in an aluminum frame. It is a heavy model, which gives a good grip on the desk, so when you hit the keys hard, it does not lose its place. It comes with a detachable premium wrist rest. This adds to the comfort during long hours of gameplay. It has 9 replaceable red keys. It also has media controls and macro keys. It also has a USB passthrough that you can use to charge your devices. XPG Summoner has a single-color variant, namely black.
