> 24 hourI recently stumbled upon the KLUDGE H81 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard and I have to say, its pretty cool! Its a perfect mix of the classic keyboard design from 1985 with all the modern features of a 2020 keyboard. You get that satisfying click-click sound with every key press, and its wireless so you can connect it to your devices with Bluetooth or USB-C. Plus, you can customize the backlighting to match your style. As a gamer, I find it really functional and it looks great on my desk too!

> 24 hourI think this is one of the newest products from RK Royal Kludge as it doesnt even appear on their official website. Unlike other traditional mechanical keyboards, this keyboard comes with a gasket-mounted frame, making typing much quieter to type on and making a muffler sound. I used to have a 2017 Razer Blackwidow V2 yellow switch, I love that keyboard, but this RK model shocks me as it feels even better than the yellow switch on the razer. Pros: - Gasket mounted, makes this linear switch (Sky-Cyan TTC customized switch) typing experience extremely comfortable and enjoyable - Multi-device connection, the switch on the right upper corner makes it super easy to use switch from typing on my PC to typing on my iPad or iPhone via Bluetooth. And this keyboard even has 2.4Ghz support... Woah... - Battery last long, I turn on RGB and use this keyboard ~ 10-12 hours a day, been using it for 4 days on 2.4Ghz mode, still has 80%ish left, so I bet it will last 7-10 days if you charge it to full. - Tons of RGB options, although I am not a big fan of RGB... - Comes with 4 extra switches in case one of your keys is malfunctioning. This model is hot-swappable and makes maintenance or switch upgrade/replacement super easy Cons: - So far I have not found any yet. Ive heard good things about RK royal kludge.

> 24 hourAlmost 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.

> 24 hourComing strictly from mechanical gaming keyboards, this is a breath of fresh air. I wasnt too sure about the switches (used to cherry reds) but after a few lines of text Im sold. This is my new primary keyboard. Pros: Feels very substantial for a plastic keyboard Very good typing experience Good response time 75%+ keyboard is a must as a Linux user Cons: RGB a little limited in fancier effect options compared to what Im used to No shine through keycaps and keycaps a little boring -though in theme with the board

> 24 hourThis 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.

> 24 hourThe keyboard is pretty good but the switch is bad. heavier than my previous k70 red, but not for long-time gaming. Update* The seller reached out and offer me a replacement of another set of switches.

> 24 hourI havent used a true, clunky mechanical style keyboard since I retire my IBM Pentium computer one hundred years ago tomorrow. The keys are big and feel great. The base is weighted and does not slip when you use it. But there are all the modern conveniences including a little dongle so you can connect wirelessly. A prominent selector button allows easy switching between devices--up to 6. More than an old IBM computer keyboard, this really feels like typing. You get satisfying tactile feedback in the form of crisp clicks as you type. Its big. A thick monster which is proud of its heft and ready to party. Even the colors remind me of a 1959 Ford Fairlane... The tech and quality is all there and the style as well.
