If you are looking for a quiet keyboard, the spacebar will put you off so much that you will return it. If you are looking for a backlit keyboard, definitely choose a different one with direct key backlighting, as the backlighting here is just for show.
It is really heavy if you are looking for a wireless keyboard to use on your lap – 850g!
Given the features of this keyboard, the price is highly overpriced.
Relatively quiet keys, but that spacebar!
You can write on it reasonably well, but that spacebar!
Dimensions – really compact, just slightly longer than a sheet of A4 paper
USB HUB, BT, cable connection
The spacebar rattles and clatters like a cheap plastic toy from a market. It's really annoying to listen to compared to the rest of the keys.
Furthermore, the backlighting cannot be adjusted as needed without software.
The fact that neither the Rapture software nor VIA can detect the keyboard at all – whether connected via a USB hub or using the original cable – is the absolute limit; even 20-year-old pieces from other brands can manage that.
The backlight isn't actually on the buttons! It's only around them, which is completely pointless and, what's more, it's more distracting than helpful.
Readability in twilight and darkness is significantly limited by the lack of backlighting directly on the buttons!
The price/quality ratio should be around £15–20.
A wireless keyboard that weighs almost 1kg? Are you actually serious? You really don't want to have it on your lap while sitting on the sofa.
Why is it actually wireless? Complete nonsense with this build quality.

Great keyboard, but a while ago the VIA software, which is quite important for remapping buttons and backlighting, stopped working for me.

I had Rapture Sierra, Rapture Charlie V2 Ultimate and Rapture Uniform Ultimate at the same time. The Sierra has the most pleasing key click in my opinion, it wasn't a high cutting click, but a nice subtle higher "round" click - the highest of the three. The backlighting through the letters is also very nice. The size is also ideal - nice and small and doesn't take up much space, yet still has arrows. Unfortunately, the keys are extremely stiff and it makes my fingers ache after prolonged typing. The backspace is the worst, which is the most rigid. Maybe I just have a defective piece, I don't know. Charlie, it's also the perfect size, the buttons are quieter than the Sierra, but it still has a nice deeper thock sound. In addition, the buttons are very easy to press, so it's great to write on. The disadvantage is the terribly weak backlight, which is hardly visible in the daytime, even at maximum brightness. The Uniform Ultimate, which has an even more refined thock sound than Charlie, probably due to its larger size. The backlight was perfect though, even in the daytime it shines beautifully. The disadvantage is the thicker frame of the whole keyboard, which is 0.5cm and it doesn't look as razor-sharp as Charlie and Sierra. If I had to choose based on the sound of the keys, I'd choose Sierra. If Charlie had a strong enough backlight I'd pick him. But in the end I ended up with Uniform Ultimate: D In the photo above Sierra, in the middle Uniform, below Charlie.
Nice quieter deeper thock sound of the keys
Ideal stiffness, maybe too easy to squeeze for some
Ideal small size even with arrows
Unfortunately insufficient backlight brightness - very little visible in the daytime (maybe I just had a defective piece)

I was buying as a pawn from a classic keyboard from electro and as a first mechanical it's a pleasant experience, except for the packaging where I was worried for a while that it was already a used product. The keyboard is really quiet compared to classic ones and it is pleasant to type on. The backlighting looks subtle even when you add brightness and feels like a quality material. It's quite heavy for how small it is, but personally I don't mind.
quiet
pleasant sound
easy to use
quality material
damaged cover, dirty and scratched. Lately alza has been delivering damaged packaging to the box
the keyboard is just wrapped with a piece of paper, the packaging is not much for a product for almost 2000
it's not entirely clear that you have to use VIA for customization, as someone who doesn't know how to do it I had to search for a while
