Packaging

The front of the box is minimalistic and to the point. Basically all we get here is the Func logo, product name and a small sneak peek at our keyboard though we do get to see the red backlighting in action. It’s not as flashy as other product packaging but in this case it seems less is more.

The rear is a bit more informative, as you would expect. Here we get a full view of the keyboard as well as bullet pointed features and the full specifications. From the full view it’s easy to notice the lack of any extra, fixed macro keys or any extra flair similar to the Quickfire XT. This leaves the keyboard with a smaller, portable size which is just perfect for most gamers.

Finally we get to flip open the lid and check out all the goodies inside. Included with the KB-460 is the user’s guide, palm rest, the clips that fix the palm rest to the actual keyboard and a slip of paper with Func’s web address and email for support, product registration and software updates. Some may scoff at a simple piece of paper when most companies include a driver CD but I actually enjoy this way better. Optical drives are becoming a dying breed in most enthusiast systems and rarely are the drivers included on a packaged CD up to date by the time the product ends up in your hands. Welcome to the digital age everyone.

Lastly we finally get our first look at the actual keyboard. You can see that the connection is permanent in the KB-460 which, as we found out with the MEKA G-Unit, isn’t always a bad thing. The included cord is 1.8m long and cloth braided in black and orange to fit the motif.
