The LEDs are fine, but the look wouldn't fit into many builds. And even though the LEDs are customizable (to whatever extent that means), they're using proprietary software so good luck getting the colors or patterns to match anything else in a build.
My track record with ADATA has been consistent over the last four years with dozens of items:
* Wonderful DRAM, works as advertised and for many years w/o problems
* Terrible Flash, mostly µ-SD and USB; fails catastrophically without warning nor remedy. There isn't a single ADATA Flash device that hasn't outright failed or behaves erratically, except a single
Gammix S11 Pro 480GB, which was reviewed here. Keeping my fingers crossed....
I guess they haven't learned from Kingston's Hyper X Fury (which is an SSD which overheats constantly because of all the RGB lighting). I hope this doesn't suffer from the same problem.

Why settle for a normal SSD when you can get a blinky rainbow one for just twice the price?! It's a great value!What are you... POOR?

Not really twice the price, more like $0.04 more per GB.jordanclock - Friday, May 24, 2019 - link
