The SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Gen 3 is a high-end compact 60% gaming keyboard featuring Hall effect magnetic OmniPoint 3.0 switches with adjustable actuation from ~0.1 mm to 4.0 mm.
It offers advanced gaming features like Rapid Trigger, Rapid Tap, and Protection Mode to prevent mis-inputs.
The keyboard uses double-shot PBT keycaps, a detachable USB-C cable, and a compact aluminum top plate build for durability.
Other highlights: true 60% layout (61 keys), wired connection (no wireless variant in this size), per-key RGB lighting via SteelSeries GG software.
It’s positioned as a premium gaming keyboard, with strengths in responsiveness and customization, though reviewers note the price, typing feel outside gaming, and software complexity as potential trade-offs.
