What are the differences between hyper x red and mx cherry red?

HyperX reds are a bit smoother and have less of a scratchy feeling

Is the software still awful as of 2021?

It’s slightly less terrible, but don’t let that stop you from getting the keyboard, it’s great.

I'm not a techie at all, so please no shaming .. will this work with a new iPad Pro, does it connect via Bluetooth and how does it charge ??

You need a usb dongle to get it to work with iPad pro
