I've had it for a few weeks so far, and I have to say I'm happy. I don't put it in the negative because for me it's not a problem at all, but for some it can be a deal breaker:
There is no RGB app yet, but kezchorn is rumored to be actively working on it. However, all animations can be changed to monochrome if the animation is multi-coloured. (fn+left/right arrow)
Relatively compact, but still comfortable to type on (I had to get used to the small enter)
The metal body (the side rails are plastic but if I hadn't read that I wouldn't have noticed), and the weight gives a sense of quality.
Easy pairing via bluetooth.
Convenient and fast switching between devices. When switched on, it connects to the last device within about 1s and remembers all the last settings.
Brown switch are, for me, great - when pressed they give a nice resistance (I put a 500 page book on the keyboard without pressing any button)
The Switches have a lot of satisfying sound, and are quite quiet (tested in an open space office and explicitly asked my colleagues) - I'll be buying it for the office as well.
Keycapsy doesn't have a completely smooth surface. Tactile like velvet; for me, very pleasant.
All extra features like sleep, backlight, win button swap etc can be toggled. It comes with a small card with a hint of all relevant abbreviations so you don't have to go to the manual. (I always have it hidden under my mousepad)
Large number of RGB mods, including conservative static white backlight
Price vs quality!
Auto-sleep has some bug where sometimes the keyboard loses pairing with the pc. Fortunately, auto-sleep can be easily switched off and is not a problem at all. But some people on the forums say they don't have a problem with it at all, so maybe just replacing the bluetooth 4.0 dongle with a higher version will solve it.
One charge is enough for about 3 days (with shutting down the computer and the keyboard), personally it is enough for me, especially when slowly the only alternative with a larger battery capacity is the keyboard from logitech for almost twice the price.

Writing is extremely accurate
The mechanics work great
Acoustically very pleasant
In wireless mode it takes a few seconds for the keyboard to wake up, hopefully I'll get used to it

such a better quality office keyboard with a poor backlighting option
easily replaceable keycap, very stable with a crisis in the middle so they do not break like those shits from Logitech
decent font
brown is great for writing, they have a nice sound but they are still very noisy
detachable cable
you can swap Y and Z if you have for example qwertz. Not everywhere it goes because keycap have different inclinations, here they all have the same
the base is not all metal but has edges - it looks cheap
brown keys are great for typing but when I'm working with graphics I get a bit sick of long pressing shift, alt, ctrl. in my opinion the buckles are quite stiff
onicom backlight. First of all, they shine through from below, which bothers me (the light is also reflected on the keycaps). There is a software bug, so you can't do anything with it other than change modes via fn (various rainbow marches and carousels for kids). Other than white it looks awful or is not well visible and therefore unusable.
I don't understand why the WIN/MAC light is on when it's a thing that you set once. I'd rather see a game mod.
Bluetooth is totally unreliable. For 3 days she was relatively fine then she started to go crazy. Sometimes it goes well and sometimes it lags, so I don't recommend it for games at all. Lags will occasionally happen on the phone. It doesn't matter if I'm 3 meters in the next room or half a meter from the bt.
F1-F12 are not visible in the backlight because the switches prevent the LED from illuminating the key at the bottom
heavy and without adjustable legs
it is difficult to switch off. the button is small and easy to switch between cable/bt. off is in the middle
in the package error switch selector so I don't even know if it can be selected. there is only a keycap picker
nice red ESC and right next to the gossip green and blue diode
MALY ENTER!
the special key for Cortana is for two things
