DIATEC FILCO Majestouch Stingray Low Profile Red Switch Tenkeyless Front Face Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2020-10-16

Since we were already familiar with the LP switches from the previously reviewed mechanical keyboards, we did not need any extra time to get accustomed with the Majestouch Stingray Ninja layout. The keys are very responsive but since DIATEC is using an all-plastic exterior chassis unlike the CHERRY MX 10.0, the actuation sound is a bit more perceptible. For cleaning purposes, the low-profile keycaps are even easier to remove than the full-size ones, while the TKL design allows the keyboard to take considerably less space on the desk.

A Closer Look Part III

Near the directional keys, we did also spot a subtle FILCO logo:

 

 

 

The key switch rows and the chassis is placed at an angle, so called “step sculpture profile”, for better fitting a natural typing position:

 

 

 

In the frontal area of the keyboard, we will only see the non-removable USB cable, without an USB hub:

 

 

 

The bottom layer presents itself with a cable management guide, so the USB cable can be routed to the front, left or right sides of the keyboard:

 

 

 

The corners do feature long rubber feet but on the top we will also notice kickstands:

 

 

 

These kickstands come with a rubber tip, so the keyboard won’t create strange noises or move on the table, even when it will be placed at an angle:

 

 

 

Near the USB cable, we will also find a FILCO authenticity sticker:

 

 

 

The large middle sticker does show the product code name, some internal code names but also a serial number; if you are unfamiliar with the extra function keys, their meaning is also explained here:

 

 

 

The supplied cable is 1.8m long and is not braided as we have seen with many gaming keyboards; a nice FILCO cable tie is supplied with the cable:
