Genesis Thor 660 review – small mechanical keyboard loaded with features and RGB effects


    In 2023, the keyboard market is flooded with so many different types of units that sometimes it’s hard for the regular user to choose the right product. That’s why today we’ll show you a keyboard that can be used in wireless and wired mode – the Genesis Thor 660. This is a compact gaming keyboard that will fit with ease in most backpacks. It has a built-in battery so you don’t have to carry additional batteries and you can use it while charging which is definitely good.

    This unit is meant for fast-paced games like CS:GO or Call Of Duty where every millisecond is essential and Genesis claims that this gadget can be super snappy even when using it wirelessly. On top of that, this product is loaded with RGBs and you can customize the lighting with the dedicated Genesis software. Still, because of the additional key stabilizers, this keyboard should be quiet enough (at least on paper) even for regular typing which is a bolt claim for a mechanical device like this one. So, let’s find out if it’s true.
