Q: Can I use the keyboard on chrome laptop

submitted by Maverick - 7 months ago

  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about SteelSeries Apex 3 TKL Wired Gaming Keyboard for PC: RGB Lighting, Water-Resistant, Compact Yes, the SteelSeries Apex 3 TKL keyboard will work on Chrome OS as a basic USB keyboard for typing and some functions, but full customization (like advanced RGB profiles via SteelSeries GG software) is limited because Chrome OS doesn't natively support that software, though some retailers list Chrome OS as a compatible OS for basic plug-and-play. You'll get key functions and potentially some default RGB modes directly, but software-based deep customization will require a Windows/Mac computer. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    Amazing

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am obsessed with the apex 3 tkl keyboard. First the colors are so fun, the keys make a satisfying click sound and it feels great to type. I really like the upper right how it has a scrolly button. You can turn the brightness of the lights up or down.

    Great keyboard

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the size and feel of this keyboard. Not overly bulky like some gaming keyboards can be. The keys are quiet too. Love the color light display and holds up well. Love how minimalist the multimedia controls are as well

    Really nice keyboard

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first actual gaming keyboard and I really like it! The buttons are really smooth and aren’t too loud when pressed. I really like the color changing lights, it switches through different color combos and I find it really calming. I also like that the color shows through the key markings, it’s really clean.

    Great Value

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely nice keyboard for the price. Not the most extensive features but more than enough for what you need. The key travel feels nice, and the RGB colors add an additional flare to it.

    Fantastic keyboard

    Good for basic

    I won this as a reward. I probably wouldn't have purchased it on my own. It's good for a nice basic model upgraded keyboard. It's not as fancy as some other models but it's fun.

    Looks good in my setup. The lights it make are beautifull. Love the scroll feature for the volume. I use it a lot. Bought my girlfriend the white one and it looks really cute next to each other. The setup for the light features was a little dificult at first but i got the hang of it eventually
