KitGuru says: The Ornata v2 mecha-membrane keyboard is an impressive hybrid keyboard. There has always been a stigma around membrane that brings a level of fear to any gamer, but the mecha-membrane technology really is another thing entirely. It offers a totally unique experience and delivers all the specs you could want or need at a reasonable price.
