> 3 dayI was looking for a lighted keyboard to put on my home theater PC, that Ive found I am gaming on that big screen here more lately. I was just using an old basic HP keyboard I had laying around, but given I use this in the dark it was of course impossible to see the keys with just the light from the screen. On my main desktop I have a Razer Black Widow, and I love it, so I have something to compare this one to. I didnt want to spend that much on a keyboard for the home theater PC, but still wanted the backlight. I ended up buying this one based solely on the Amazon ratings, and quite frankly, I didnt have very high expectations. I figured it was Amazon, and if the keyboard was total crap, I could return it anyway. Boy, was I surprised when it arrived! For a keyboard at this price point, I was very happy to see if felt like, while very lightweight, decent construction. Amazon shipped it in its bare box with no outer box, and of course the box was all dinged up from shipping, and I expected it to be broken, but it was just fine. Even more surprising were my first impressions of the mouse. Just the feel of it, it felt like a much more expensive mouse, and having a braided cable at this price point is fantastic. I wasnt even expecting to use the mouse, as I have a trackball, I mostly just bought this for the keyboard. I havent tried the mouse in actual use yet, probably going to give it to a friend, but the keyboard suites my needs very nicely. The adjustments of the RGB LEDs are easy to do right on the keyboard. They key feel of course is softer than the Razer I am used to on my desktop, but I was happy to learn that this brand has a higher end keyboard available with those type of keys, I might purchase in the future. Bottom line, very pleased with this purchase.

> 3 dayI bought this combination, expecting it to work out of the box. The Keyboard is beautiful and does a fine job of working for what I intend it for. The mouse... No spring back for either left or right mouse buttons. I am a little more than peeved at seeing this obvious factory issue make it all the way to my doorstep. Still mulling over what to do - I may send this back. Poor quality control. Update: On closer inspection, the mouse had been misaligned at the factory and the top and bottom pieces of the mouse body were not aligned correctly. I watched a video on YouTube for this mouse as to how to disassemble and reassemble the mouse and after a few minutes I had the mouse repaired. I *WILL* be covering this on my YouTube channel since I plan to review this combo set. One more item: Redragon makes it VERY clear that software is included with this package. It is most certainly NOT. And they go to great lengths to hide the software from the end user. I have found what I believe to be the software links, but plan to test before I share them here. I will bump up the review one notch if the package works out well over the long haul, but given the mouse issue right out of the gate and the promised software NOT being in the box plus the poor web site support to find the program, I cannot reasonably give Redragon a 5 star rating until these items are corrected. Update: December 2019 - I was able to correct all the issues with that first mouse and the software works just fine. Ive since bought this combination of mouse and keyboard 3 more times and had no issues. This truly is a great keyboard/mouse combination and Ive made it a standard setup on the 3 gaming systems Ive built to date. Software is indeed on their website but it is a little strange to find - The mouse is on the website as Redragon M601-3 CENTROPHORUS 3200 DPI Gaming Mouse and has two downloadable executables - The Windows 10 version works just fine. I rarely run the software since it works fine without it but it is nice to be able to change the mouse parameters if needed.

> 3 dayI 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.

> 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 dayI LOVE this keyboard. Its absolutely perfect. Now, Ive always been a PC gamer, but Ive never purchased a gaming keyboard or mouse. . My first keyboard was just a plain black Logitech keyboard that Ive owned for five years, and my mouse was a trackball. Now see, Ive always wanted a keyboard that glows. The Alienware keyboards looked so beautiful with the ability to customize the colors. But I guess I decided..Why do I need that? Ive been typing ever since I was a child. I have the locations of every key memorized. I dont even have to look down anymore. Eventually, I found the mouse and figured Id give it a try. My finger was just getting ready to hit Proceed to checkout when all of a sudden, I saw this combo. So I figured..Why not kill two birds with one stone? The set finally arrived after a dramatic week of waiting. Ill tell you right now..When I opened the box from Amazon, and pulled out the case, I was absolutely ecstatic! After I opened the box, I spent a good ten minutes admiring the set, clicking the mouse, and feeling it in my hands. The braided cord was an excellent touch Ive never seen attempted before. But when I plugged the keyboard and mouse in, I knew that I was inlove with this set. The product images dont do well to represent the backlight. Its a lot brighter than I expected, which I love(Remember, I wanted a keyboard with glowing keys). But the mouse has the best glow to it! Anyway, it has three DPI settings on the mouse which has proven very helpful in FPS games. And it has two side buttons, which I havent experimented with yet, BUT I notice that either them act as a Go back one page and Go forward one page. Even more convenient is that I can open a new tab in Firefox by clicking the scroll wheel. I have to get used to the raised keys, as well as using a mouse instead of a trackball. And of course, there are the numerous multimedia keys. The enter button is a bit farther like the others have mentioned, but I honestly dont find that a con. Its something that I immediately got used to upon using it. In conclusion, I love it. I thought Id immediately regret this purchase, but I just dont. I love this keyboard, and the mouse is spectacular.

> 3 dayYou get what you pay for. Mouse dpi seems slow though. Couldnt adjust or it would have been 5 stars.

> 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.)
