SteelSeries Apex Pro with HyperMagnetic
Score: 75/100
HyperX Alloy Origins 60
Score: 80/100Rankings
The HyperX Alloy Origins 60 is a compact 60% mechanical keyboard with an aluminum chassis and per-key RGB lighting. Its main trade-off is the lack of wireless connectivity and a reduced key set. Ideal for gamers who prioritize portability and premium build.
The SteelSeries Apex Pro HyperMagnetic is a full-size wired keyboard with fully adjustable OmniPoint magnetic switches and an OLED display, offering unparalleled customization. Its substantial weight and size, plus the absence of wireless options, limit portability. Best suited for gamers and creators who need a full layout and extreme actuation control.

Editors and professional reviewers position the Apex Pro Gen 2 as the "world's fastest keyboard," stressing its 20× faster actuation, 11× quicker response, and fully adjustable magnetic switches that give esports players granular control. They also commend the premium aluminum construction, per-key RGB, and ergonomic tilt legs, while noting the full-size form factor adds weight and desk-space demands.
No direct consumer reviews were found in the research, so everyday user sentiment cannot be quantified. The lack of user feedback suggests limited public discussion beyond the manufacturer’s claims.
