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)

This keyboard and mouse work. Theyre perfectly serviceable. The light options on the keyboard are nice. Thats the extent of the good things I can say about this set, unfortunately. To start with, the mouse. I thought I was getting a five-button gaming mouse (not including scroll wheel): I did not. The two side buttons are MACRO playback buttons that require Redragons propriety and obviously-machine-translated software to function. The macro function sucks because it doesnt have good manual editing; you cannot type in a set of instructions to push X button at Y time, etc, etc, the way you could with AutoHotKey. You have to record all the keystrokes in the correct order and manually edit the timing/delete anything. But you cannot add! You CAN assign the side buttons - and, for that matter, the regular Mouse1 and Mouse2 buttons - to other keys. However, you CANNOT simply assign them to, say, Mouse3 or Mouse4, as those options are anomalously missing. You may only assign it to Left or Right Mouse, or a bunch of special windows keys like IE Forward/Back, Multimedia, Mouse1/Mouse2, Internet Explorer special keys, and the like. The middle button, below the mousewheel and between the left and right mouse keys, is not a mouse button! ALL it does is swap between one of four programmable mouse input DPI steps. This seems mostly superflous to me, as you can set the mouses DPI in the software. I wouldnt mind so much if switch between DPI settings was an OPTION and I could reclaim that button for, say, Mouse5, but nope! That is absolutely, positively ALL it does. The keyboard has some FANCY light options, Ill give it that. The instruction book is reasonably helpful at explaining them all, too. Annoyingly, theyre only a set of input-based options from the keyboards own function key, and NOT programmable via the software - which has nothing at all to do with the keyboard. Furthermore, the mouse only has one color - red - and you can only choose between light on, light off, and if it is on, change the speed of the mouse lights breathing. These products are obviously not made as partners, theyre just two different products manufactured by the same company and sold as a set. The keyboard, also, feels cheap. See also the damage on the S, D, N, M, and . keys in my picture above. I have only had this keyboard about six months (arrived mid-April 2019, photograph taken mid-September 2019, day before the date-of-posting since midnight has just passed as I am typing this,) and its already visibly worn from use. This is the kind of keyboard thats made to be unboxed immediately before a PC gaming pro sets down for a tournament, it doesnt feel like its going to stand up to two decades of wear and still be functional the way my last keyboard was - and still is, though filthy and with many keys worn physically through. I bought this combo for the mouse, which, speaking of cheapness; The mouse is also bloody cheap, too. It FEELS nice and solid and thunky and heavy in your hand - thats because theres a bloody great mass of sodding metal weights inside it! You can pull them out to adjust their spacing and numbering if you like, so thats nice I guess, but with them all out, if just looks feels like a generic Logitech corded mouse going through a Goth phase. In conclusion, they work, theyre cheap enough and if you like gaming stuff, or dragons, or black, or colors, or fancy rainbow cycling lights and you need to replace either or both of a keyboard or mouse, theyll do the job. But do not expect a gaming mouse (it is not,) or a gaming keyboard (it has literally no gaming features whatever.)

The S101 keyboard and mouse combo is a nice and affordable replacement for a basic keyboard and mouse. The keyboard is very basic with no software to program it. All of the LED lighting commands are built-in to the keyboard using FN keys and are very basic. The mouse has software and drivers you can download to program macros, assign buttons, adjust speed, LED light, etc. However, the mouse is just one LED color...red. The keyboard has nice multicolor LED options. Both the keyboard and mouse feel like they are made well and durable. I like the feel of the keys when I type on them, its also very quiet. Happy with this purchase.

, it doesnt feel like a mechanic keyboard but it is, for the price is the best you can buy

I bought this pack primarily for the keyboard to see at night when the wife is asleep. So for that, the keyboard has fit the bill perfectly. Theres still some abnormalities with it. Why it needs to start in flashing rainbow mode, among others. But I digress, so far the keyboard has been a great improvement to my situation. The mouse, well, its in a box on the shelf. Put bluntly, I dont like it. I dont like the goofy holes where your thumb rests, I dont like the heavy texture on the buttons. Unless your thumb and fingers are made of putty or sopping wet, having a smooth rough texture like this does not provide added grip---it provides less surface area contact on your fingers. Thats less grip. Theres a reason race cars use tires with no tread. So unless youre worried about your fingers hydroplaning on your mouse, rough textures really have no place on a mouse. Unless youre pounding down potato chips while you use your mouse. I digress. In all seriousness, my dream keyboard would just be the cubicle-ubiquitous Dell Quiet Key, but with keys that illuminate. I dont care about ghosting. I dont care about RGB colors. I dont care about multimedia keys or any of that stuff. This one looked to have fairly generous lower profile keypads rather than the often-imitated IBM model M super tall, skinny keys which I dont like for typing. And so far, its been just fine. Not as nice to type on as my office drone special, but still alright.

ITS SOOOO Lit! ..literally!

I type for a living, 9 hrs a day most days. I am not a perfect typist but have been doing it over 20 yrs so I am ok. That said this combo had some things going for it and some not so. The keyboard- took me a few minutes to adjust from my prior and fingers and movements fell right in nice, nice to type on almost dead silent, key pressure is about perfect in the middle for most, the lights are mostly nice color schemes, colors and brightness can all be changed super easy. The extra buttons are nice to have also. The negatives , you must use the light if you want to see the printing of the letters and numbers at all, the top number row the symbols can be a little hard to see even with brightest color, the front of it is not for me I would have preferred it flat as it’s too short to be an effective wrist rest so I have my normal keyboard wrist rest in front of it, that is my biggest gripe. The mouse to me is fine, nothing bad but not great either, I see some dislike for it but maybe some don’t realize the small button behind the scroll wheel if you press it then it changes the dpi mouse movement speed it has 3 settings, no need to download any software to do that. I just wish I could stop it from pulsating the lights on it constantly. All together I think this is a solid 4 stars, especially when you consider the price.

You wont go wrong for the price. Just like anything else that you buy through Amazon Prime this guy came to my home quickly. Everything was packed up nicely and well protected with air bags covering the actual keyboard and mouse packaging. Granted, this isnt going to be the best keyboard mouse combo out there but for the price, I dont think youll find anything better out there. The red lights looks good on both the keyboard and mouse but arent too bright. The mouse wheel has a nice feel to it but does require a little bit more umph to move it then other mouses sometimes need. The mouse definitely isnt small, but I only have normal size hands for a guy and my handle cradles it just fine. If anyone out there with small hands is wondering if they can use this, my wife (with VERY small hands) says that she really likes how comfortable the mouse is. The 3 dpi setting are nice and luckily with where the button to change the dpi settings is at, youre not going to accidentally hit it. Its also nice for me switching to a lower or higher dpi depending on the game that Im playing or the program that Im using. If you have any questions or anything Ill be happy to answer anyones about the keyboard or mouse. ***EDIT*** Ive decided to update this review. After putting in about 200 hours of CS:GO using this keyboard and mouse set up, I feel like Ive put it through its paces. The only issue that Ive come up with was binding keys to the mouse buttons 4 and 5. Theyre a little tough only because instead of using the options menu I had to manually type in the binds through the console. Other than that Ive had no issues. The Keyboard is a bit on the louder side but not much more than any mechanical keyboard albeit much louder than a chiclet keyboard would be, but thats to be expected. As far as how noisy it is when Im gaming, since Im really only using WASD a bit of the shift key and then tab, I havent had much noise. The most important thing is that the wife doesnt get annoyed with the noise so theres that. 200 hours later this is still a 5 star extreme bang for the buck keyboard/mouse setup.

Not expecting much for the price. hard to see the letters/numbers unless you are looking over them directly.

I got this for my office at work. I figured if I’m going to be at my desk all day I may as well have a keyboard and mouse I enjoy using. The mouse is great, adjustable DPI and function buttons are nice. The light on it “breathes” which is fun. Now, the keyboard. It looks nice, the LEDs are cool and have multiple options for how much of a rave you want at your desk. The keyboard is NOT MECHANICAL. No clickity clacks. That’s my fault for not seeing that in the description. The keys seem to absorb finger oils pretty quickly, it’s very noticeable on my spacebar. There are multiple function buttons but I don’t know anyone that actually uses those, but it’s nice to have the option I suppose. Overall this is a nice, inexpensive set up that is better than a “stock” keyboard and mouse you’d get from your company and adds some flair to your desk.

Playing WOW.
