RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 Plus Wireless Mechanical Keyboard, 60% RGB Gaming Keyboard with USB Hub, Hot Swappable Computer PC Keyboards with Bluetooth/2.4G/Wired Modes, Silence Linear SkyCyan Switches

I have to say this is the best looking keyboard I have ever seen. It is perfect. Everything works right out of the box. I didn’t have any problems with the 2.4G or the Bluetooth or the wired connection. The SkyCyan switches and the key caps feel and sound great. The USB-A through port is a really great addition to a really great keyboard. Thank you RK for making such a wonderful keyboard. I highly recommend RK keyboards.

While this is not my go-to size/layout for a small keyboard, I have enjoyed using this one. The lack of dedicated arrow keys is not my thing, but I did not deduct any stars for that since thats a personal flavor thing, and also not a fair critique for this kind of KB layout. I tested this with a couple different games (Terraria and Deep Rock Galactic) and it held up absolutely fine with each one. The switches are smooth and responsive and the keycaps feel nice to type on. I actually prefer the smoothness of these switches to my primary writing KB and am thinking I now need to buy a set of these cyan ones to match that experience. The battery life is excellent; I never even charged it after opening it and have been using it for about a week now maybe 30-60 min a day and havent had to charge it yet. The connectivity is all nice and I also love how this KB has a dedicated on/off switch. Ive had some that dont and it drives me crazy! Its got some weight to it so it wont slide around on the desk, but would be easily portable for a mobile game night (the primary reason I picked this up for myself, actually), and It feels solid and good to use. Highly recommend if you are in the market for a compact gaming board that still gives a nice smooth typing experience.

If this was a full-size keyboard, I would say this is the best keyboard I have ever used and felt. The keypresses feel very nice and professional. The cushion added makes the keys feel perfect. The supports in the Enter and Backspace spaces feel amazing. You will be impressed with this keyboard and the keys. This keyboard does not have arrow keys by default. Note this first if you plan to get this keyboard. There are modes you can turn on, and one mode you can turn on is to use specific keys as the arrow keys, but you will then have to switch the mode (FN -> Enter) every time you want to use the / character. The RGB modes are nice to use. I have tested Bluetooth and a MacBook Pro M1 and it worked with no issues. I tested the USB port with the USB memory stick and the computer saw the memory stick. I used Bluetooth wireless and it worked on battery power. The keys feel like Cherry MX Brown. They are pretty quiet keys. It will not be a keyboard that people will complain is lound. The cushion helps disapate most of the sound. The key pressing force is just enough. It is not a super sensitive key, so I would not use it for gaming. But for typing and programming it would be a great keyboard. Pros: - Keys pressing - USB Memory stick option - Bluetooth - Rechargeable batteries - RGB - All keys are visible without RGB. Cons: - I wish it had the arrow and PageUp, ... keys - Wish it came with a coiled USB cable Overall I like this keyboard a lot. I will probably use this as my traveling keyboard since I have to travel a lot. If it had the arrow keys and PageUp,... section, I would make this my daily keyboard. I will look to see if they make a similar keyboard that is bigger. If you are looking for a new keyboard that small, this is probably one of the best keyboards you can get.

The keyboard is a little small without a 9-key on the side but it feels great while typing on it. If you use the number pad a lot, this isnt for you but if it isnt something you need it isnt a problem. Larger hands might find the keys close together but I dont have any problems with it and I wear a large size in womens gloves. I havent needed to swap out any keys so I havent tried that part.

I like the color lights

This RK61 Plus is a feature packed keyboard. It seems to do everything in its feature set quite well. Ive been using this as my daily keyboard for a few weeks straight. I do gaming and work at my computer so Ive put this board through its paces. Out of the box you get the keyboard, a USB-C to USB-C cable, which also has a USB-C to USB-A adapter attached. This is a nice touch and it allows for wider compatibility as USB-C gets more and more popular. It also includes four extra key switches as a well as a combination key cap and key switch puller. This keyboard uses SkyCyan switches, which are linear switches. They remind me of red switches but with a little bit more actuation force. The switches appear to be lubed and have a nice sound. The board is hot swappable, meaning you can change your switches out for tactile and other linear switches if you dont like the SkyCyan switches. The board uses north facing RGB LEDs. In terms of connectivity the board supports bluetooth, 2.4ghz via the included USB-A dongle which is located under the keyboard, or wired use via USB. When you use the keyboard via the wired connection there is a USB-A and USB-C port on the back of the keyboard that you can also use to plug in additional peripherals like a mouse. This is limited to USB 2.0 speeds, and only works when using the wired connection. Battery life for the board has been good. I assume if youre doing lots of RGB all of the time the battery life will be shorter, but typically I just have a slight backlight or no lighting at all. The software for customization and lighting works well. Its got a lot of different effects you can use to customize the look of your board. The included keycaps are solid and have a nice feel when you are typing. They are not shine through keycaps which is a plus to me. There seems to be a misconception that a 60% keyboard uses narrower keys than a standard keyboard, and that is simply untrue. This board uses the standard size key caps and has a standard bottom row of keys so if youre looking to swap the key caps in the future you can get standard sets. The included key caps have nice legends that help you to learn the function layers of this keyboard. They are not overly intrusive and blend in well with the rest of the aesthetic of this keyboard. This keyboard bring a lot of features and is a good value if you are looking for a versatile mechanical 60% keyboard that works well in a wired or wireless setup.

5 Pin Hot Swappable. The Sky Cyan switches feel and sound great. Just what I was looking for on the go.

This is a problem. I already have a favorite keyboard, my Royal Kludge RK84 Pro, but I wanted to see what all the rage was about with 60% keyboards. I might get it now. I notice the size difference, but it is intuitive with the exception of the cursor keys, which are always on, you will have to use the Fn key to use the right Alt, Ctrl, etc. which is the opposite of what the keys indicate. The RK linear SkyCyan switches are much improved over my RK linear browns, and overall it is a much quieter keyboard. It is also lighter. Overall this keyboard is very nice for the price. Wireless with a dongle, wired for use and charging, and 3 Bluetooth options, a USB hub, RGB, and some nice linear switches. You won’t find much, if anything, in this price range with those features. I only wish I could change the angle, but this keyboard doesn’t have any adjustments for that. The switches on the back over the bottom are a nice improvement, though I’m still not sure why the wireless dongle option is labeled “G” This might not replace my work keyboard, but I think I have a new favorite gaming keyboard. If you need to save desktop space, enjoy a default height keyboard, and can use those features, you cannot go wrong with this keyboard.
