CONCLUSION

   Both the facts that Hexgears is not among the most popular gaming peripheral manufacturers in the world and that the K520 is not even listed in their official website may not be good signs but this mechanical keyboard is actually a lot better than what i was originally expecting. Yes, it lacks RGB lighting and being tenkeyless means it has a specific target audience but it makes up for those by using water and dust proof premium Kailh Box mechanical switches, something which as many of you are aware, we don't see a lot, at least not currently. The K520 is also surprisingly sturdy for a keyboard of its price range and that should go a long way for people who are looking for something that will last quite a few years.

   So, what do I mean by its price range? Well it’s easy, the K520 mechanical keyboard by Hexgears currently retails for just USD59.99 inside the USA (Amazon.com) and for 67Euros inside the EU (Amazon.co.uk) a price tag which at least on the other side of the Atlantic is exceptionally good for what you’re getting. Of course, once again the TKL size of the keyboard (87 keys) and its white LED backlit keys are certainly not for everyone but if you don’t mind about those and you’re looking for a sturdy and water/dust proof keyboard then the K520 is without doubt a mechanical keyboard worthy of your time.
