RK ROYAL KLUDGE H81 Hot Swappable Mechanical Keyboard, Triple Mode 2.4Ghz/BT5.1/USB-C Knob Control Wireless Gaming Keyboard Gasket Mounted with RGB Backlit SkyCyan Switch, 75% Layout 81 Keys

this is really kinda cool we get gateron browns some of my favorite switches made they have a good tactile feel but with minimal issues while typing i absolutely love these keys i would say get this keyboard if your a mmo player but dont want a full size with the num pad added this fits really well on my desk and if i didnt want max desk space this would be a clutch keyboard to use all the time

This keyboard the color scheme I though online was alot brighter, but it turned out to be alot more muted and neutral colored which I actually enjoy. Feels like an old school look but they have that dark blue/ black and white selection if this isnt your color scheme. This keyboard feautres BT/2.4Ghz/Wired, all worked correctly, no issues at all. I do like that the connection options are on a dial or at least on the front as with their 1800 keyboard to switch between 2.4Ghz and BT, you had to flip over the keyboard and flip a little switch. This would be asking for alot, but to program the keyboard with the Fn and certain keys to swap modes instead and have a volume knob would be amazing. Sublegends/labels for the functions is a nice touch to see. Plenty of RGB modes for you to choose between. The battery display I love how they implemented it as usually I only see a color scale between green to red to identify if you need to charge it but here you get a whole row to show they battery level. The gasket mount design was very interesting to see at this price point. This allows flex when you type in the keyboard so if you type hard/bottom out alot, this will less the pressure youll get back on your hands when you type. You wont see too much flex but it is better than tray mounted. For stabilizers are pretty good except the space bar which is a bit sharp (presumably the wire isnt lubed correctly or its not balanced). They would be easy to modify though if you needed as theyre plate mounted stabilizers. Subjectively, the switches in this keyboard are rather scratchy, but they do pretty good if you want to go the extra mile and lube them or swap the switches out. The keycaps arent the best Ive had, but they are higher quality keycaps in my opinion. Overall, this is great keyboard for those that want a more compact keyboad but dont want to compromise everything to have more space on your desk. Id recommend this to anyone looking for a smaller keyboard but dont want to break the bank. To my knowledge though, people still dont want to spend almost a 100 dollars on a keyboard when you have super cheap membrane keyboards. But you do pay for what you get.

The keyboard sounds great. I do love the switches. I have no complaints on build quality at all although I havent opened it up yet. For the price I paid and ease of use Im extremely happy SO FAR. No issues gaming in wireless at all. Battery life seems fine you can use it while it charges so makes it even less a big deal. Now onto the software. Im on windows 11 latest drivers on everything windows are as up to date as possible. The software installs fine. Just when it launches it says no device detected. NOW this could be because the PID listed for my keyboard is different than the required PID for the software. I dont know what this is about, and customer service hasnt responded yet. Also, the software does say there is an update but fails to download it. I am located in the US so that may be the issue. You dont need the software for the keyboard to work just making a note that it doesnt work. This would be bad if there was a firmware update or something that needed to be applied to the keyboard to fix something.

I used Royal Kludge keyboards in past and liked really liked it. So got this one for my work. This has serious ghosting issues on Shift and Ctrl keys. More than 10% of these keys stroke is not registered. Been using it for a week, so not sure if this is caused by some stupid settings. But this is really annoying. I had this issues with other keys also, I think, because when I tried to use some shortcut, my PC behaved really differently. Not sure if it is this one keyboard with defect or not. Ill return it, and maybe buy another same model to see if this issue persists. If theres no issue, then this keyboard is nice to use.

The keyboard looks fantastic. It has a greyish base with an interesting retro shape -- which is very reminisisent of older computers. The base is plastic, but feels well made. The knob on the top right also has a cool retro look. The keycaps are a mix of a dark steely grey, white and grey. The keycaps have the function legends on the bottom of the keycaps which makes them look clean. The keycaps arent shine through, but look real good. No additional vanity keycaps though. This is my first experience with RKs own switches. They arent bad at all. They type, sound and feel good. It has a real good sound without any mods. The gasket mounted plate seems to make a big difference too. I dont hear much rattling and no springy sound with the space bar. The 75% keyboards usually have all the important keys while keeping it compact. Though the layout is a bit weird. Theres a pause key but no dedicated home key. And the home and end keys that are provided via the Fn button are oddly far away from each other. Feel like they should have made home and end dedicated keys and removed Pause. Couldnt find a way to remap the keys. Both Bluetooth and the 2.4 modes work on my Mac Book -- I dont notice any delay or lag when doing basic typing tasks. The 2.4 adapter also has its own dedicated slot under the keyboard for safe keeping which is wonderful. The slot if magnetic. No worries about losing the adapter. Other things to notice it has an extra usb slot that can be used as a hub, and it comes with some extra switches. Noticing something the keyboard isnt responsive when using the wired mode and I need to plug and unplug the cable. I had it happen a few times, and not sure whats causing it. Ive also had the keyboard lag-a-bit and then get stuck pressing a key. Again reseating the cable fixed this. These issues seem to be rare, but thought Id point it out.

Nice upgrade from my 60% keyboard, love the wireless and functionality

Almost everything feels just right about this keyboard. The dial is well-designed if you expect to be using multiple devices. Typing on this feels very satisfying and makes just the right sound. I also like the RK61 which has the same SkyCyan switches, but they feel even better on this board. RGB lighting and battery life are also fantastic. The only negative I can think of is the 3 buttons on the right side arent quite ideal. Pause seems like a less common key to need there. Id prefer if Home and End were a bit more accessible. I believe you can tweak this by just changing out the keycaps with the included tool, then using software to remap the keys and save the change to firmware. Seems pretty easy to do. If you like the size and want to connect to multiple devices, I highly recommend the RK H81.

I am enjoying using this keyboard. It seems sturdy. I like the retro color scheme. I like the neat light effects. Its got a nice mechanical feel, without being too loud. Easy and comfortable to type on. No negatives for me. Very happy with it so far.

it’s a very nice and simple keyboard i’d recommend it to people who are just getting into customizing a keyboard it sounds nice doesn’t have a strong pinging noise or sounds too hollow

Really well built keyboard and very aesthetically pleasing, the stock sound is also amazing.
