RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 Wired 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard RGB Backlit Ultra-Compact Hot-Swappable Red Switch White

I liked the feel of the keycaps, and i liked the sound of the blue switchs. The package came 4 days early when i got free shiping witch was a great touch. I would also like to note that the backlighting on this keyboard i can see in the daylight when gaming. I am using this keyboard on an Xbox one and it works for some games, here are the some of the ones i know: Fortnite, Minecraft, and Call of duty warzone are some of the ones i knowl; but i can not guarantee it will work for any other games. As like any other 60% it is vary portable so I can put in into my backpack for school. The keyboard has a nice click when ever you click it. (blue switchs) but that pretty much sumes up my review

good

First off, this is a solid keyboard. It looks small (and it is, even says Ultra Compact) but it has some heft to it. With the rubber feet on the base you know that this isnt going to jitter around your desk with every tap. The keys have a nice clack to them like any good mechanical keyboard and typing on it feels very satisfying. Lots of different RGB effects and colors, these are really well done if you care about that kind of thing. That being said, I couldnt use this for gaming. Most the games I play make use of a the numpad, F1-F12 keys, and more. Thats on me, I didnt read the description well enough and I did give it a good shot. If your games dont use these keys or you can get by using the FN key then great. I moved this over to my office computer and so far its been a great switch over the Dell keyboard that came with it.

It is great

It’s wired only no wireless so it’s pretty good still you can change the lighting and mod the keyboard

Edit: 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.

Im more than satisfied with this keyboard, the contruction materials are high quality and is extremely comfortable and fun to write in. Love it

Built well and sounds great. 100% would recommend for someone getting into keyboard building/modding.

im not really a fan of how u have to get to certain buttons but then again, its only 60% of a normal keyboard. Another problem i had was downloading the software. other then that, its great

I love this keybored but the question mark button isnt working!!! I really need it to work and I have no other keyboards!
