Redragon S101 Wired Gaming Keyboard and Mouse Combo RGB Backlit Gaming Keyboard with Multimedia Keys Wrist Rest and Red Backlit Gaming Mouse 3200 DPI for Windows PC Gamers (Black)

After working in IT for many years Ive used a large number of keyboards and mice. Some Ive loved and some Ive hated. This pair is somewhere in the middle. The keyboard is lightweight but doesnt feel too flimsy. Giving it a twist shows it has some flexibility but no creaking or popping. It uses the typical 104 key style layout with no odd-shaped keys. The cord is straight and vinyl insulated. There are the usual additional multimedia keys (No audio volume?) that so many manufacturers like to tout as a feature and that nobody uses. RGB lighting is controlled by the keyboard rather than the computer and has a number of options. Its bright enough to see the keys in a darkened room except for the multimedia keys, which are not lighted. The mouse is the biggest disappointment for me. The pointer jumps and wanders while used in games which has been a huge cause of frustration for me to the point Ill be replacing it. (Ive tried six different surfaces with the results being the same) The cable is stiff and fabric covered in red highlites which doesnt match the keyboard. The mouse is lighted in RED only with a breathing effect, so you cant match it to your keyboard or system color scheme. The weight system is still too light with no option for additional weights. The shape is uncomfortable in large hands and the buttons on the left side are easy to hit by mistake. Value-wise its not bad with the exception of the mouse. If the pointer instability could be fixed I would recommend it.

You get what you pay for. Mouse dpi seems slow though. Couldnt adjust or it would have been 5 stars.

If you can spare two USB ports, this set is a fantastic bargain. Maybe theres more customization on more expensive gaming keyboards - this is my first step into the field. However, everything works great and I honestly have no complaints. It exceeded my expectations so far (A month or two of use so far). 2020 Update: I liked my first Redragon set enough to buy a second set for at work. The price is still right, and everything still looks and feels great. A few things have changed, though. The keyboard is now RGB backlit rather than plain unlit keys with red LED embellishments. There are FN controls to regulate the breathing (light-dark pulsing) of the keyboard, which is good because I found it distracting. The included instruction booklet lists these key combinations. FN+END pauses and unpauses breathing. FN+PGDN enables and disables the backlight entirely. FN+PGUP rotates through 3 still rainbow lighting arrangements. FN+HOME rotates through 7 monochromatic colors (white, blue, red, green, purple, yellow, and cyan). FN+INS smoothly transitions through the 7 colors over the course of a few seconds, though to my eyes the brightness was uneven. FN+UP and FN+DN scale through 4 levels of brightness, and FN+LEFT and FN+RIGHT scale through 4 speeds of animation. For my money, the backlight will be kept motionless on a monochrome light, but to each their own. All told, very happy with the keyboard. It also features two new sets of buttons above the F-row, which are oddly not backlit. The set to left of center includes links to My Computer, Search, Refresh, Email, Calculator, and Home Page. The keys to the right are media controls for Stop, Last Track, Play/Pause, and Next Track. These are all fine, but unnecessary since the F-row already has FN shortcuts to most of these things, and the topmost row, again, isnt backlit. And we have the mouse. It feels identical to the previous mouse, though it has 4 DPI settings rather than 3. Theres a catch though, which is that the mouse backlight (red only) is set to breathe by default. To disable this, youll need to download software from the Redragon support page. Although my mouse and keyboard both list their parts # as S101-3, the mouse is actually a M601-3 CENTROPHORUS. Youll need to download the drivers for this mouse in order to disable breathing. All the way left on the softwares slider will disable the light fully, and all the way right will leave it permanently backlit (my preference). The other new thing with the mouse is that a LED flashes when you change DPI; its flash speed correlating to how high the DPI is. It seems unnecessary but harmless. All told, my first impression is that the addition of pulsing lights just makes first time setup harder as you need to track down the software for the mouse and learn the keyboard controls. I want to take off a half point for the mouse not having a hardware option to disable the light, but all told Ill keep my rating at a 5 as the backlit keys are actually an improvement once you learn how to freeze them. *****

Cool Combo But After 2 months of using it the Spacebar key started to make squicking sound like it got rusted or somthing , other than that the keyboard and mouse are good for gaming , but again , i think its not designed to last more than 1 month.

Playing WOW.

Product is awesome. Works fantastically. No issues at all, and functions as its supposed to. My only complaint is how it was shipped. It was sent via USPS and not through Amazon itself, which caused a lot of problems. First, the package was way too big to fit inside a mailbox (obviously) but it also could not fit inside a parcel mailbox either, and I was forced to retrieve it from the post office. Items like this are better sent via Amazons own delivery service, or Fedex, etc. USPS is not designed to deliver large packages. Otherwise, I am happy with my purchase.

I bought this for working from home love that I can change the lights. I sit in a kinda dark office because of migraines and the keyboard is just bright enough to ser

Love the feel, functionality, and comfort of this keyboard/mouse combo so much I ditched my old ergonomic models.

I really like the keyboard. The lighting makes the keys easy to read, and it has a good balance between give when typing and resistance to provide feedback about my keystrokes. I prefer keyboards that provide a bit of a click when I press the keys, and this one does that. I dont know that its really any more a gaming keyboard than many other models, aside from the cool logo and backlit keys, but it gets the job done for the games I plan and is fine for work too. The mouse is not great, though. Its too lightweight and doesnt track as smoothly as my current one, and I didnt feel like figuring out how to change the sensitivity setting within my computer, since its responsiveness is very different from other mice I have used on this machine. Thats not a big deal, as I bought it because I needed a new keyboard. The gaming mouse I already have works fine.
