RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 Wireless 60% Triple Mode BT5.0/2.4G/USB-C Mechanical Keyboard, 61 Keys Bluetooth Mechanical Keyboard, Compact Gaming Keyboard with Software (Hot Swappable Red Switch, White)

If you like the keys raised, this is your keyboard…I have long nails & had hard time with the flat keyboard. I love this works great with my nails!!!!! LOL….

I bought the red version. very comfortable. no complaints the setting does take a bit of time, and unfortunately they didnt do a good job of documenting it. but Hey, Google is your friend. a quick Google Search solves most. of your problems. note that with different version, swapping between the arrow mode takes different methods. on mine (2020 July shipped) , its Fn+Enter (written in the little manual), where someone on amazon review reported other methods for possibly an earlier version. what really drove me nuts is the design for the question mark /?. I used Fn+ENTER to switch it off arrow mode. apparently the left arrow becomes OPT , not ALT as is printed on the caps. right arrow is correctly control. I dont use two. so its more convenient for me to keep the arrows in arrow mode. but that leaves the /? a thorny issue. in fact even in arrow mode, if you press shift+/ , the keyboard does send out ? hard keycode to computer. the only issue is /. at last I just let the keyboard send out up arrow, and in Mac, I used Karabiner to attach a custom rule for this RK61 so I convert up arrow to /. Then where do I get my up arrow? I created a complex rule to map Fn+O to up arrow. luckily there are many letter keys not yet mapped to functions. ----- on my Magic Keyboard I map the left Fn+hjkl to arrows, but unfortunately Fn+hjkl on RK61 have been implemented to send out hard electric signals for END/HOME etc to Mac, but Mac simply does not recognize these, so its a waste

hi i bought this keyboard couple days ago and idk why the usb bluetooth mode won’t work can someone help

It is a good keyboard but after a year or so they will stop working. I bought 2 and it happened to both. its a software/firmware issue. if you want a long lasting keyboard go namebrand with regular driver updates. theres also virtually no customer support

Hey, keyboard nerd here. Ive been around the hobby for a while but I got one of these to use as a beater/travel board. This version of the board seems to be a newer version that was introduced this year (or maybe in 2021). Most reviews you can find online of the older one, but the main differences are switch compatibility and the 2.4ghz receiver. The current version that I have is fully hot swap compatible. I dont think it was made clear enough, and I think the fact that this amazon page includes the reviews for the old version is confusing. The old version is only compatible with Outemu style switches with the smaller stems. This version, to my surprise, worked fine with Gateron reds and other standard switches. I looked through the listing again and there was an indication in one of the *pictures* of all things that the keyboard switches are almost fully hot swappable. All of the online reviews for this keyboard are for the older version and indicated that it only supports Outemu style switches, which is no longer the case. Switch and keycap quality are okay. Theyre definitely fine for the price but the switches do have a bit of wobble to them. The texture on the keycaps is fine. They probably wont last forever but they seem like theyll survive at least a few years. The 2.4ghz performance is pretty good, which is to say its pretty standard for a 2.4ghz wireless receiver at this price point. The latency is noticeably better than bluetooth. That said, wired performance is noticeably better than 2.4ghz to me. I still think the 2.4ghz receiver is plenty good for casual games and way better than bluetooth, but if you want to be a sweaty fps gamer, Id stick to playing wired. I obviously didnt buy this keyboard for gaming, but for reference I tested it on cod mw2 (2022) running on performance mode at 240hz, with my usual keyboard being a rog falchion. Compared to that keyboard, the rk61s 2.4ghz mode had a pretty noticeable delay for me, but the wired mode was plenty good enough for fast-paced sweaty gaming. Also, the manual could use some improvements. Below Im adding a rundown of how the keyboard is mapped out, since I had to look some of it up and trial-and-error the rest. - fn + left control: toggles between 3 fnlock modes. 1)[fnlock for the function row (f1-f12) + fnlock for the nav cluster (prtscr, home, end, etc)] 2)[fnlock for only the function row] 3)[no fnlock at all] - to access the multimedia keys (volume up, play, stop, open browser, etc), you need to have the number row set to the function row (f1-f12) from the step above, then hold down fn and press one of the f1-f12 keys. that should activate the keys multimedia functions. - fn + enter: toggles fnlock for arrow key cluster in the bottom right corner. press it again to disable it - fn + a, fn + s: switches to windows or mac mode respectively. this just switches the function of the alt/opt and windows/cmd keys to their usual layouts on windows/mac - fn + windows key: locks the windows key and prevents it from being clicked, for gaming. press again to remove the lock - fn + esc: use the tilde key. hold shift during this to type a backtick Okay, I think that should be it. Everything else is reasonably explained in the manual or on the key legends themselves. Overall. I like this keyboard. Its good value for the money. Its fully hotswap now so you can upgrade to whatever switches you want later. Keycaps feel fine to me for the price. The 2.4ghz receiver works fine for the price and latency is fine. Bluetooth and wired modes work fine. Really my biggest gripe is that the manual doesnt properly explain how the keyboard is laid out well, which is pretty essential on any board smaller than 65%, which is why I docked a star. Still recommend the board, but I really hope the manual and documentation can get an improvement in the future.

Quick warning, I never used this in bluetooth mode so I dont know how well or poor that works. I have used this very a very limited amount in wireless mode, as I dont care about that sort of thing. It sometimes drops inputs in that mode, but thats because I have my xbox controller and headset that uses the band its on. YMMV. The simple fact is this: For 64 bucks, youre getting a hot-swappable 60% keyboard, with a metal backplate, that has adjustable lighting. Its a steal of a deal. Theres a few catches, though. 1: The lighting is flat. One color. In white, its sky blue-ish. In black, it appears to be yellow from other reviews. If you want RGB, buy the more expensive version. 2: A 60% is kind of difficult to buy new switches for because of the function layer. Unless youve memorized the layout, if you do decide to get better keycaps, you might be lost as to how the Fn+ layout of this keyboard works. Generally the F keys will always be the corresponding number, but if you need the arrow keys, or the pgup/pgdn/del/end/whatever youll need to find keycaps *specifically for this keyboard* to have the function layer be on the board. Theyre most likely out there but still. If thats going to be a deal-breaker for you, buy their TKL which just loses the side number pad. Its only slightly more expensive. Youll still need to deal with the lighting controls in that case but its much more likely youll just remember where those are. 3: The battery is non-removable. If, like me, you use this exclusively in wired mode...well, the spacebar will flash at you, every hour or so, telling you its fully charged. Its annoying but you learn to ignore it. 4: This board does something incredibly nifty thats ruined if you keep the lighting at full blast. When caps lock is on, it tells you by turning the light all the way up. See...the obvious problem here is that it should have dimmed the light instead of brighten it. You literally cant run the lights fully if you want that feature to work, so I dont...cause I do. No keyboard is going to be perfect. For the price, if you want a 60%, get it. If you want a 65%, buy that version. If you want a TKL, buy that version. Hot-swappable at these prices? No brainer.

This was my first mechanical keyboard, and the typing was very satisfying (I purchased the red switches). However, I often use keyboard shortcuts, and this keyboard is inconvenient for some shortcuts. For example, Ctrl + RightArrow is hard to use, since I need to press LeftCtrl + Fn + RightCtrl, but then this mistakenly switches the keyboard mode! Fn + LeftCtrl will turn 1-9 into F1-F9. It may also be confusing for some people if they accidentaly change the keyboard mode. I tried to use the m key and it didnt work until I realized it was acting as the End key because I accidentaly switched the mode. There are 3 modes for the Fn keys, 2 modes for the arrow keys, and 2 modes for Windows/Apple.

Keyboard is very nice. Got it as an inexpensive upgradable keyboard. I cant tell the sound of the keys as well as a keyboard hobbyist but to the untrained ear I think it makes a decently nice noise. LED backlighting is nice and smooth. Overall id recommend.

I bought this keyboard around this time last year This is really nice keyboard it is still in great condition I have spilled water in it and got food all over it and I have put it through hell it is a really good one major thing I don’t like about it is the Bluetooth after a while it will disconnect and you may or may not struggle to reconnect it. Other than that the keyboard is great.

Keyboard is great. Love the feel and love the sound. Love the solid thonk when i type. Its a great portable keyboard and i am dissapointed they dont make a full size version of this. I know they make full size keyboards but its not the same as this one. Was skeptical about their own brand of red switches but they actually compare pretty well to cherrys. I dont really notice a difference. I just hope they last as long. The main issue is that the wireless is buggy. I cant type to fast because the computer wont pick up every letter or it will get stuck on one letter and repeatedly input thay character. The key isnt pressed. It just seems to be an issue with the wireless because it works fine when connected via usb. Both the bluetooth and the 2.4Ghz have the same issue so Im at a loss. I tried downloading some software from the website and its all in chinese, which really doesnt matter because the program crashes anytime i try to click on anything. Summary: Great keyboard to type on just as long as you dont need the software and dont need to use it wirelessly
