Redragon K556 RGB LED Backlit Wired Mechanical Gaming Keyboard, 104 Keys Hot-Swap Mechanical Keyboard w/Aluminum Base, Upgraded Socket and Noise Absorbing Foams, Quiet Linear Red Switch

The keyboard is pretty sturdy and heavy, and I like the customizable options for colors, but I had an awful time with missed key presses. It worked fine for a few months before it became an issue. Reddragons customer service was responsive but they couldnt help me since I didnt buy directly from them. I got around the missed key problem by moving around some of the switches but it eventually got annoying to constantly keep removing/reinserting/switching them. Im not sure if its more of an issue with the keyboard itself or the Outemu switches, but I guess I got what I paid for. The switches were also more scratchy compared to the logitech kb I have now.

I bought this keyboard after seeing a few reviewers talk about how much they liked the all metal body. Everything I saw online seemed to agree that the keyboard was really good, but could have been better, specifically complaining about the hardwired cable and tight hotswap terminals that limit compatibility. But when the keyboard arrived, I didnt actually get what the product page described, it turns out theyve send me an upgraded version. Its the same keyboard, but theyve replaced the hardwired cable with a detachable USB C cable, and the hotswap terminals have been upgraded to more expensive plugs with wider switch compatibility. The old terminals only supported Outemu switches because theyre so thin, but Ive tested thicker Gateron switches and they fit perfectly. The LED is on the underside of the board too, so you can even use ones without the LED cutout window and they fit fine (Although they obviously block the light from the LED). Overall I am very pleased with the keyboard, and the upgrades theyve made to it have me wondering why they havent updated the store page to reflect them. I guess I cant say for sure that I was supposed to get this version but I didnt do anything special, I just ordered the bundle with the wrist rest. The brown switches feel great, so ironically I probably wont even use the upgraded hotswap sockets, but its nice to have options anyway. Theres really no issues I can bring up about this keyboard, and over the last week Ive been trying a ton of them to find the right one for me. Ive returned a K70 RGB Pro, a Strafe RGB MK.2, EVGA Z20, Razer Huntsman Elite, Logitech G815, Steelseries Apex 7; and this keyboard is both my favorite and the cheapest of the bunch. If they made a version with media keys over the numpad and magnets for the wrist rest Id be all over it. The only nitpick I can even come up with is that the seams where the metal edges meet are a little crooked and dont sit completely flush, but frankly I dont really care.

Its the best product ever , for gaming or work , I can’t say anything only its amazing .

I wasnt too sure about this keyboard. I wanted a lit keyboard as I prefer to do my gaming with the lights off. I suppose I delayed for years getting one due to the price. I read all the reviews concerning the Redragon keyboard. Although I was somewhat skeptical, I pushed the key to purchase. The lights (or, why were here): Prior to this keyboard I was using a really nice wireless one from Logitech. It still is nice, but it doesnt lite up the keys. The Redragon does...spectacularly! I dont know that I have a reason to use all the light shows it will perform, however, if you are reading this and you want a keyboard that does...this is the one! Now, when it comes to lighting, I wanted one that I could program the color and intensity of the keys. More importantly I wanted to be able to program each individual key according to the key controls for games. There are many expensive ones that caught my eye but didnt have this capability. This keyboard hits a grand slam when it comes to programming individual keys! Everything I wanted. For me that is enough to validate the five stars I gave it. Tactile feel/feedback from the keys: At first I wasnt sure I liked the feel of the keyboard. I used it in a few games and loved it. But I wasnt sure I was going to enjoy typing on it...until I typed out my first email. My fingers were dancing around on the keys making clickity click sounds like Reindeer on the roof. I was afraid I would end up with a lot of typos on this keyboard and the opposite is true. If you want a keyboard with tactile feel and feedback, then Redragon is your buttercup. In regards to the instructions: They arent that great. The good news is that the operation/programming of the keyboard and downloaded software is very intuitive. Seriously, it aint rocket science. I was up and programming in less than ten minutes. Would have been less except I was enjoying all the light shows. Time to sum it up and move on: Truthfully, $49.89 is outstanding for a keyboard of this caliber. Its a great gamer board and also great for typing (even in the dark). I highly recommended this keyboard! On a side note; this aint no plastic keyboard! Whack somebody with it and youll likely get charged with manslaughter (or womanslaughter, kidslaughter, petslaughter or coleslawder). Nice because it doesnt slide around.

I love this keyboard. Love the colors too. And I have a free suggestion to Red Dragon on how to improve their keyboards. I hate dust. You should add a hinged plastic cover to the keyboard to keep out dust when not in use. Just lift it up and youre ready to type. No charge for the idea, but feel free to send me one if you like the idea. Thanks.
