Greater than one weekIve only been using it since yesterday, but I am already won over by this keyboard and mouse combo. Now, the M601-3 Centrophorus mouse is great. Its heavy, glides smoothly, the buttons are responsive, and the size is just right for my hands. That alone is worth the money, but Im not focusing on the mouse in this review, but the keyboard. This keyboard is a delight. Typing on it is comfortable, the keys are sturdy, give a nice tactile response, and arent so loud as to wake sleeping members of the household as I type. There was a time when I could type 130 WPM with zero errors, but for years that number was severely reduced due to a number of issues: carpal tunnel, arthritis, and poorly made keyboards. Right now Im typing around 110 WPM with zero errors, and the keyboard isnt even breaking a sweat. This is probably the best it will ever get for me, but I am already amazed. I never thought Id be able to type this fast ever again, but the keyboard is laid out in such a way, with the keys themselves offering a terrific response that lets my fingers bounce from one key to another without any interference or lag, that I dont even feel like Im straining at keeping up the pace. I realize this isnt a mechanical keyboard, but it does feel like one. I mean, if you cant afford a mechanical keyboard, the Redragon Harpe K503RGB is a fantastic deal, and I havent even got to the fun part yet: the lights! As you know from the description, the keyboard lights up in a rainbow pattern, as well as 7 colors, including my two favorites: purple, and white. It also has a spectrum option which shows a steady rainbow that doesnt blink, or you can have one that breathes. Its all rather lovely, and its a dream for me to type at night. I touch type, but sometimes you need to see the keys, even in the dark, and I have no trouble seeing where my hands are placed, or where Im going while Im typing at night. All in all, I got this combo for a steal. $30? Its easily worth twice that much, IMO. As a budget gamer, I never thought Id be able to afford a keyboard and mouse with this kind of quality. I highly recommend this for anyone who doesnt have a lot of money, but would like to be productive as a gamer, as a typist, and as a general computer user. 5 out of 5 Stars. Buy it.

> 3 dayThis 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.)

> 3 dayThis is a great keyboard. My Logitech stopped working after a few years, and I needed a replacement. I figured I would get the same one but when I looked it up it was 120 dollars that I didnt have. I saw this one had great reviews and for under 40 dollars I decided to give it a shot. I spent a lot of time using the computer, and I game a LOT. Its not clicky, but I can still feel the press of each key when Im using it. I love the low profile buttons. The lighting is beautiful, I rotate through a few of the different colors and lighting effects. My favorites are the pastel rainbow, and the mode that slowly fades through each color on a rotation. My one and only complaint would be that the finish on the keys is wearing off. Ive only had this for two months now, and as you can see by my picture, the paint on the WASD and space bar is wearing off in places. The corners of the 2 and 3 buttons are also wearing off as my nail hits against it when Im hitting my W key. But again, I game a LOT, as I said. I am very hard on this thing, so a bit of wear is kind of expected. If they sell replacement keys I would absolutely buy them because I really enjoy this keyboard. Maybe a gamer pack of keys - WASD and space bar only?

> 3 dayLet me start off by saying the mouse works great, the keyboard however...has a somewhat frustrating issue. During the cooler months, my house usually gets decently cold. Ive noticed that when the indoor temperature gets in the low 50s Fahrenheit, some of the keys (those on the left side of the T/G/B keys) wont work in conjunction with the left Shift key. Left Shift will still work with the keys on the other side, and I can still type with the affected keys by themselves in lowercase, but if I hit LShift+a, for example, to capitalize, it wont register any input at all. I write A LOT, so this very quickly became annoying to deal with. After troubleshooting pretty much everything I could think of, unplugging/plugging back in the keyboard, cleaning the keyboard thoroughly, the only explanation I can come up with is that this board just does not like sub-50 degree temps. Otherwise, the keyboard works just fine and is decently comfortable to use. RGB lighting is very cool and Ive had no problems with it. Ill just have to find a better keyboard to switch out to once the cooler seasons come back around.

> 3 dayI have been working from a computer for over a decade and I do not know why this is the first time Ive actually invested in a quality keyboard and mouse. It does make a difference, a significant improvement! I used to think I was just a sloppy typist and blamed myself for constantly having to go back and fix words in my sentences. After an hour of typing on this keyboard - I quickly realized that I am a GREAT typist and that my cheap dollar store quality keyboards Ive used in the past were the issue! I found myself flying through emails, never having to look down at the keyboard, and trusting that every letter and number I type would actually work and type as intended. The keys feel great, they are responsive and sensitive, and they all work perfectly. I had no interests in the color changing abilities of the keyboard- I just wanted something functional and high quality. - BUT I will add that the color changing is incredibly easy. I looked at the direction book for 30 seconds and realized I can choose any color I want, I can have rainbow colors, transitioning colors, breathing/fading or turn the lights off/on - the options are all very easily to cycle through by selecting the FN ( function key) and any combination of the (insert) ( home) (end) (delete) (page up) (page down) keys. Its very easy to remember and allows the user to select any number of colors or combinations of colors. These are my first impressions of the keyboard- but I am very impressed and agree with the rest of the 5 star ratings. This keyboard has all the functionality I am looking for and the color changing ability and options are easy to use/change and remember. 5/5 stars. UPDATE - Months later, and a few hundred hours of typing and this keyboard has not let me down! I love it and have not had any issues with quality or anything malfunctioning or breaking. Keys still feel great, have not gotten slow or sticky at all. 5/5 Stars.

> 3 dayIve had this keyboard for awhile because I needed a a new one that was a bit quieter so I dont wake anyone in the house while working or gaming at night. Overall this keyboard does the job in regards to that. The main issues I have are the size of the keyboard and the lights. The keyboard is a bit too small for my hands and gets uncomfortable to use after awhile. As for the lights? The main issue I have is that it always resets itself to the rainbow nonsense every time you turn your computer off and back on. Yes its easy to set the lights back to what you want but I just want the light to remain on the setting I put it on. The last issue I have is that for whatever reason, if I need to restart my PC, the keyboard stops working and I have to unplug it and plug it back in. Ive tried different USB ports and even test my USB ports and settings in my BIOS to see if it was a port issue and its not. Its just this keyboard. So overall all I can say is that my issues could just be localized to the one I bought and my own personal feelings towards it. If you have smaller hands and you dont care about the lights resetting every time you turn your PC on then buy this keyboard. As for the mouse, I havent used it. I have a good mouse and Im leaving the redragon mouse as a backup when I need it.
