> 3 dayI have a moonlander as my daily work driver but wanted a cheaper mechnical KB for gaming, At this price point, I think the RK61 is better than the competition for its cost, although it doesnt match up as well vs more expensive keyboards. One minor complaint is that the hote backlight has a bit of red tinge to it, and that I had to go hunting to find the correct software. Regardless, if you are looking for a mechanical wired and wireless KB for around $50, this is the pick.

> 3 dayI ordered a black keyboard with BROWN switches for my daughter. I was sent blue. At that point, my choices were: A.) just keep it. But I felt annoyed that I specifically ordered brown and got blue. B.) return it for an exchange. But the exchange option only says exact exchange, and I was worried theyd send me blue again...even though the invoice specifically says I ordered BROWN. C.) return if for a full refund and then go back and buy the same black keyboard again with brown switches, and hold my breath hoping they would send brown this time. But the price went up, so it didnt seem fair that I should have to pay MORE for their mistake. So, I opted for option B. I specifically told them in the message that I ordered brown switch, I was sent blue switch, and to please send me brown and that I did NOT want blue again. Well, I just received the exchanged keyboard. And guess what? Blue. Seriously?!! Blue again. I am so ticked right now! This blows my mind! Never mind that the keyboard is really nice. Never mind that the colored lights are AMAZING. Not listening to what customers order...TWICE NOW...REALLY turns me off!! To add the this story....let me tell you that I also ordered, for myself, their white keyboard in brown switch. I got a white keyboard in brown switch. Its perfect. its exactly what I wanted. Having both blue and brown switches makes me even more upset, because I greatly prefer the sound of the brown. The blue is very clicky. We live in a 70 mobile home. I can hear my daughter doing her online school work on the blue switch keyboard even when we are on opposite sides of the house. I see that other people have also complained that theyve received the wrong color switches. I dont understand this. Why? If brown isnt available anymore, then please take the option off! If I had been sent the black keyboard in brown switch, like I had ordered, I would have given this keyboard 5 stars, hands down. Heck, even if I was originally sent the wrong color blue switch, but had they sent the right brown one in the exchange....I would have given it 5 stars, no problem. Because the keyboard is really nice. Are you thinking its unfair of me to leave 2 stars for a really nice keyboard? No, its not.....BECAUSE I ASKED, TWO TIMES NOW, FOR BROWN SWITCHES AND TWO TIMES IVE RECEIVED BLUE. Enough of this nonsense! What a hassle! I guess we will just keep the one blue switch keyboard. Ill end this long review by saying that if you are trying to decide between the black keyboard and the white....definitely choose the white! It is AMAZING!! The lights are soooo much more brighter and vivid on the white keyboard than on the black. As I said, I have both, and the lights on the black one are, frankly, a disappointment in comparison to the white. I received the black one first (in the wrong switch color, remember) and we thought the colors were great. Then the white one arrived...and it blew us out of the water! We turned out the lights and were oohing and aahing. Plus, the white one came with the brown switches like I ordered...so that was a plus. So, the moral of this story is....I recommend the white keyboard. You will be so pleased. I recommend brown switches....they have a much softer click sound than the louder clicky blue switches. But its a crap shoot whether youre going to even get brown switches. Dont bet on it. Black keyboard - blue switches (when I asked twice for brown switches) = 2 stars White keyboard - brown switches = 5 stars

> 3 dayBeen using her for like a week, the browns are honestly pretty nice, i wouldnt call them holy pandas or anything but they definitely dont feel horrible. Little inconsistencies from key to key but its very minor. I havnt lost any switches but the main reason i say they could be switched out for better ones is that i see a lot of reviews saying frequently used keys stopped working within months. Easy fix i usually put my own switches in anyway. Pull key cap, pull switch, put new ones on. Its easy and a great benefit of the board being hotswappable. My ONLY question is WHERE IS THE RGB SOFTWARE THAT IT SHOWS IN THE INFORMATION SECTION???? Does that software not exist anymore or what cause i cant find it. There are three pictures showing different sections of a keyboard software that APPEARS to make the board programmable. and it SAYS the keyboard is programmable. but i havnt seen it on any website anywhere

Greater than one weekI got this because I am tired of using my regular laptop keyboard with hard to press keys. It was the most affordable keyboard I could find and it is bluetooth. I have a MacBook so it does not have any USB ports on it so I have to filter out everything else adn this beautiful keyboard jsut spoke to me. It is really bright when it comes to RGB and it is hot swap. They switches are a little loud but tolerable. The lights are so customizable and you can change the speed, mode, and you can change the color of them to your choice and it is amazing. The switches sound high quality, I got the blue switches. It increased my productivity and skills in video games and I am really thankful for that. Overall, best budget friendly keyboard on the market.

Greater than one weekThis board is a bit too narrow for me, but I got exactly what I paid for. Works well, no complaints.

> 3 dayI purchased this keyboard nearly 2 years ago, and while it is a fantastic keyboard for typing/general gaming. The keyboard has a nice spring to it and the switches feel very good. However, It is not very good for rhythm games, Etterna in particular. From running keyboard polling software, apparently the keyboard only pulls at around 65 hz via USB. For rhythm games this is not acceptable, but if you plan on using the keyboard for an FPS or MOBA, its great. If you play rhythm games, and need a small keyboard for transporting around, I recommend trying something else. However, its a great board for the general public.

> 3 dayBought as a Christmas gift for my son and he is happy! We thought the keys stopped working within 2 months which was disappointing at first but then discovered that if the keyboard stops working and you flick the button on the back of the board it resets! Worked for us so we are happy again!

> 3 dayI loved how beautiful the keyboard is and all the functions that it comes with. If youre using it for gaming - then this is a solid 5. However, I am a nursing student and I type for hours at a time so that is what I use for. Unfortunately, with the red switch keyboard I found myself getting tired much quicker than I do on my Logitech keyboard. This is my first time using a mechanical keyboard in a long time so I wasnt sure which ones would work for me. I am returning this item and replacing it with the brown switches as Ive heard that it does not require much force to actuate a key press. I also type out various essays ALL THE TIME and noticed that with this keyboard, I often had to go back and correct a lot of spelling errors. This was not very efficient for a student like me due to having to type my notes during lectures where my professors like speaking like they are always running out of time. I love the keyboard - its beautiful, has many functions that I still have not yet learned and it is worth the price if youre used to this type of keyboards. Unfortunately, for me it did not work. I will return to provide a review for the brown key switches.
