> 24 hourKeyboard came as viewed in the description. My son uses it for gaming and really likes it. It’s light weight and has a pretty long cord. We switched out the keys with red panda keys and the process of switching the keys was very simple and fast. Even with switching out the switches, the keys still light up and change color. There are different setting for how you want the colors to flash when you got the keys. Overall this is a great keyboard for the price and would order again.

> 24 hourWas super happy with the product but when I opened it I knew something was up. It didnt have a new smell to it. Furthermore, I noticed some weird black markings on the keyboard, some of it doesnt show on the camera but I was able to wipe those away with just water. However, as you can see with the backspace key and the /? key it is very noticeable also what I was saying earlier you cant see from a difference, on the left of the /? you can see the tainted area. I was unable to wipe the /? key and backspace keys off. I am disappointed for paying for a brand new ~$50 keyboard and not receiving it as such. I left seller feedback and didnt get a reply. Unsatisfied. Also, its kind of annoying to have to press twice FN + SHIFT just to get to the question mark from a mac point of view. Updated review 12/01/2022: customer support Jane reached out to me, asking me what was wrong and proof...again...of what was wrong with the product. After that everything was a breeze and very friendly customer service experience. Bumping up stars for timely responses and for the replacement keyboard being shipped very soon. She also checked in to make sure I received and was satisfied with the replacement!

> 24 hourThis is the first mechanical keyboard that Ive owned and so far I love it! The only thing I dont care for is how close the keys are to each other but after getting some use in on it, it is not bad! I love how you can change out the Gateron switches to whatever you like. I bought a 9 button Gateron test kit and I decided I like the clicky feel so I bought some green switches and swapped them out. It worked great and I can swap back to the reds whenever I want. The other thing I dont care for is the function keys being mixed in with the normal keys so I have to press FN and Enter or FN and CTRL to switch between arrow keys or media and function keys. Overall I give this a 5 out of 5. I recommend this to any of my gamer friends on a budget.

> 24 hourEdit: So shortly after my review they reached out to me offering me a replacement keyboard and a bunch of help they didnt even have to do and it was extremely appreciated. Their customer support is on point! The more time I spend with the RK61 the more I enjoy it. The software issues have gone away and the keyboard works flawlessly. Ive also updated the review with pictures. Im using Akko Crystal Clear switches which make the RGB brighter and it looks perfect, these switches have a bit more thock than the brown switches I chose for the RK61. The stock brown switches do sound great too. I plan on getting blank keycaps, a custom spacebar and call it the day. People ask how I type so fast, I just say its because Im using the RK61 and it feels amazing to type with. So I was extremely displeased with this purchase when I originally received the RK61 which Ill explain in this review. After a few more days with this keyboard, it has actually grown on me. Ill separate this review in 2 sections, pros and cons. Pros: R61 is a great beginner keyboard for those getting into mechanical keyboards such as myself due to its mod potential and price. I purchased the version with brown tactile switches which I eventually swapped out to the akko crystal clear tactile 5 pin switches (makes the RGB appear brighter too). The original switches and keycaps feel amazing stock and sound fantastic. The board itself doesnt feel too heavy nor too light but just sturdy enough for its size that gives it a great satisfying feel. 60% leaves a lot of space on my desk which I need for gaming and also allows me enough space to get a regular sized keyboard if I ever choose to for my set up. I do plan on doing more mods later down the line such as bandaid mod, lubing, styrofoam, etc. when I feel more comfortable approaching those mods. Cons: The worst part of this keyboard is the software. The software actually doesnt work at all and shows a no matching device found with no fix. There are You Tube videos that provide links to different softwares that work with the RK61 {which do feel sketchy} but work nonetheless. Another big drawback are they fn functions short cuts. For example it took me a couple hours to realize that I have to use the right shift to type the ? which is extremely counter intuitive. The delete function requires pressing 3 separate keys which is also counter intuitive and there isnt any way to change this in the softwares Ive mentioned in this segment. The last huge drawback for me is that sometimes when I start my PC and start doing what ever Im doing, I notice the keyboard isnt working properly or is glitched out where the keys arent activating or the secondary keys are activating without me pressing fn or shift. The only fix for this is to reset they keyboard by pressing and holding fn + spacebar for 5 seconds. All of this information I had to research myself.. Lastly, the RGB lights arent bright at all but changing to the akko crystal clear switches, made the RGB appear more brighter. I may or may not swap to pudding keycaps to make the RK61 brighter. For $40 (sale and $4 coupon) this couldve been slightly better in terms of quality, especially for how much YouTubers hype up this keyboard. However after giving this keyboard a chance Ive started enjoying the RK61. I do suggest trying out some mods for the RK61 and there are ways to make the RGB brighter if that is a deciding factor for you. Im rating this 3 stars because the hardware and price is great but the software and glitches definitely bring down the quality of the RK61.

> 24 hourThis products is a Chinese created product, finding the software in English is a pain. The keyboard is great, I had a defective key on my first go around with this product which was refunded asap. This keyboard is a great minimalistic solution for gaming. Also has the option to be modded fairly easy!
