RK ROYAL KLUDGE 70% Mechanical Keyboard - RK71 Wireless Gaming Keyboard with Hot-Swappable Brown Switches, Double-Shot Creamy Keycaps, RGB Backlit, and Triple-Mode Connectivity

The media could not be loaded. This is the red switch model. It is used for typing only, no gaming. I bought it to use when I in my wife’s office one day per week to avoid disconnecting her stuff. Build is sturdy. You can see the small size in comparison to my regular full size mechanical keyboard in the photo. I’m using it wirelessly via the USB dongle. No connection issues. Have not tried the Bluetooth. Lights are cool, but the keycaps are not illuminated, just the board below. There are multiple patterns to choose as well as the ability to adjust the speed, brightness and color. Lettering is nice and bright. The Fn shortcuts for Windows are not configured properly even though I have it in Windows mode. I may need to just reset it. The shortcuts on my other board work fine. Key feel is fine. My other board is brown switch. No issues with the change to the reds on here. Type about the same speed. I included a video so you can hear the key sound. It’s no lower than my other board; however, the space bar and backspace key are quite clunky. You can clearly hear the space bar in the video. I have no issue with it since this is used in a home office. I do like the clicking of the mechanical boards. No comment on battery life as I haven’t had it long. For the price, I think it’s great. Hope this helps.

The keyboard I really wanted was double the price, couldn't justify the cost. So I thought how bad could this be? It can't be worse than the cheap wireless bargain-basement one I was using. At least it's rechargeable instead of AA batteries like the crap I was using. I sit about 8 ft away from my older gaming rig in the living room so wired was out. So tried this and so far I am impressed. Like the feel, a bit softer than my two wired Corsairs with Cherry Reds, but not much. Size is perfect, has those arrow keys and pgup/pgdn, end, del... but not the number keys that aren't important to me. So just about right. I use the 2.4ghz wireless and have had no issues with it. Maybe some people see the reason to 'mod' it but it works just fine right out of the box. It's a good value. And it doesn't hurt that it feels solid and has those extra magnetic feet that just plain work. And the RGB looks really good if you are into that...Update- love this keyboard- just ordered a second one for the kitchen computer and I am thinking of another model, maybe a standard layout, in another room...UPDATE: still love this thing. Now have one in the kitchen, and one in the back bedroom... And two RK98s for two desktops. All these RK keyboards and not one complaint... Even used one in MAC mode with my MAC.Update, 2 years after purchase. Both 71s still going strong, as are the two RK98s I bought after this keyboard. I use a 71 in the living room on 2.4ghz on my bigscreen tv with gaming PC. It's light and easy to carry around, and I game and surf with it. They work, they are reasonably priced, and the battery lasts.

I've been now using this for 6 months. I used to type on my laptop's shallow keycaps. coming to this keyboard will take some muscle memory until your fingers are used to the new key placements.I don't face any problems with the keyboard in terms of functionality. I was it for typing a lot (I have the red switch one)It was annoyingly fast at first but you get used to not resting your fingers over the keyboard. Even now I still rest my fingers on the keyboard which causes typos at the slightest pressure, but your fingers get used to be elevated.Why not a 5?1) I used it for about 30 days playing league of legends, if you're familiar with the game, you use the space bar a lot. Unfortunately, now the space bar has this mildly annoying rattling sound. But could be due to the aggressive playstyle of the game.2) One other thing I absolutely HATE is the fact that I don't know if I'm on the numbers mode or the F# mode. And I ended up toggling full-screen mode (F11) when I intended to type (-) when coding. A light indicator like the one in the capslock would've been handy RK !3) The keys borders are a bit sharp for writing so long. Especially the control key which I use so often along with the function keys. My little finger sometimes hurts and that is my indication for taking a rest lol.But other than those minor issues, the keyboard feels amazing. Very functional and light Sometimes I don't want to stop writing even after finishing the thing I'm writing just because I enjoy writing on it so much. Haven't charged it in 3 months I think.Summary: After 6 months of using it still love it. For this price range, it doesn't get any better than this

I have had it for about 6-8 months and no complaints at all. works great, love the feel, love the sound, and nothing on it has broke or failed me yet.

Went into the rabbit hole that is mechanical keyboards while trying to find a new keyboard for my home office setup. I’m not a gamer but use my keyboard a lot so I wanted a quality set up. Finally landed on this one after a lot of research. I was able to get it with a 30% off coupon with the thinking that I could use the money I saved on some new switches or key caps if I wanted. But honestly, these cherry red replicas are amazing that I don’t even think I want to switch them out. May still change out key caps as these don’t shine through but that’s simply preference. I just enjoy the fact that it’s hot swappable for 3 or 5 pin switches in the future if I want. Keyboard is the perfect size and I love all the RGB modes and connectivity options. Highly recommend!
