Compact mechanical keyboard at a great price: Rapture SIERRA got a nice discount, features low-profile switches

Mechanical keyboards with Czech keycaps and a compact format are not usually cheap. You can currently get the Rapture SIERRA Wireless for 1,349 CZK with discount code ALZADNY25 – that’s 450 CZK less than its launch price. For less than 1,400 CZK, you get a 65% format with low-profile linear switches, RGB backlighting, and extensive connectivity options including three Bluetooth channels. If you want to check current availability, you’ll find everything directly in the product details on Alza.

Quick summary:
✅ Makes sense if you’re looking for a compact mechanical keyboard with Czech localization and don’t want to spend on premium brands.
⚠️ Consider if you plan to game with RGB backlighting at maximum – battery life then significantly decreases.
💡 For 1,349 CZK you get low-profile Kailh switches, a 65% format, wireless connectivity, and CZ/SK keycaps – an exceptional combination in this price category.

Compact Format with Czech Localization

This keyboard from Rapture uses a 65% format with 68 keys – meaning it lacks a numpad and the F1–F12 function row (which is accessible via Fn). It takes up minimal desk space while retaining arrow keys and basic navigation keys. The ANSI layout with a long left Shift and a narrow Enter key is clear and versatile.

Key is the CZ/SK localization – Czech and Slovak keycaps. This is not a given for compact mechanical keyboards in this price category. The keyboard supports both Windows and macOS with the option to switch using a toggle on the top side.

Kailh White Rain LP Switches: Quiet and Fast

The keyboard is equipped with low-profile linear Kailh White Rain LP switches. The linear characteristic means smooth travel without tactile feedback – ideal for those who prefer a fluid press. The actuation point is just 1.2 mm and the total travel distance is 2.8 mm, ensuring a quick response for both gaming and typing.

The switches are factory pre-lubricated, which contributes to quieter and smoother operation. A lifespan of 50 million keystrokes guarantees long-term reliability. Translucent ABS keycaps beautifully highlight the RGB backlighting.

Connectivity: Cable, 2.4 GHz, and Bluetooth

The keyboard offers extensive connectivity options. You can use it wired via the included braided USB-C cable (1.6 m), wirelessly via a 2.4GHz receiver for the lowest latency, or via Bluetooth to up to three devices simultaneously. Switching between devices is simple using keyboard shortcuts.

The built-in 2,000 mAh battery provides decent endurance – one reviewer praises “good battery life.” However, it’s fair to mention that with RGB backlighting turned up to maximum, battery life significantly decreases, as confirmed by another user. For longer gaming sessions without a cable, it’s worth dimming the backlighting or turning it off completely.

What Users Say

On Alza, the keyboard has a rating of 4.8 out of 5 (5 ratings) and 100% of customers recommend it. Over 100 units have already been sold, and the return rate is only 1.89% – which is a very low figure.

Reviewers primarily praise its quietness, quality craftsmanship, and the fact that it “matches higher-priced competitor models.” One user appreciates that the keyboard doesn’t disconnect and can be quickly turned off and on, which is useful when switching to a controller. Weaker points mentioned include the shorter battery life with backlighting enabled and the fact that “the sound of the keys might bother some” – linear switches are not completely silent, even if they are quieter than tactile ones.

Other keyboards and gaming accessories on sale can be found in the current Alza Days.

Verdict: Who It’s Worth It For

If you’re looking for a compact mechanical keyboard with Czech localization and don’t want to spend on premium brands like Keychron or Logitech, this offer is definitely interesting. For 1,349 CZK, you get low-profile Kailh switches, a 65% format, wireless connectivity with the option to connect to up to three devices, and RGB backlighting. Conversely, if you need a numpad or expect multi-day battery life with full backlighting, it’s worth considering other models.
