The GK104 Pro keyboard from Skyloong has possibly the longest list of features we can remember. It’s got a 2” LCD screen, dedicated integrated calculator with a second display, a built-in speaker with no less than seven different typing sound effects, there's a split space bar, RGB lighting…the list goes on and on. Safe to say it is designed to appeal to anyone who likes a lot of functionality from their devices. With so much on offer, though, can it still deliver a great core typing and gaming experience?
