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)

I love NEARLY everything about this keyboard. The keys feel so nice and satisfying, the size is perfect, and the lighting features are awesome. The only problem (and it is a BIG one for me) is that the / key and the up arrow key share a single key and you have to use the FN key to toggle between them. As someone who is a writer and does a bit of coding as well, this is just not practical for me. I use both keys all the time and its not just a rare inconvenience, but a constant one, to use the FN key to type out a slash. But this experience has made me realize there is, in fact, a reason gaming keyboards are gaming keyboard. I would imagine, when gaming, the need for a slash key isnt critical. But for my everyday purposes, both those keys are. Ill be returning this keyboard,but Im going definitely check out Royal Kludges other options because apart from that one major quirk, the keyboard is great.

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….

So I didnt realize when I bought this one that it is blue light LEDs only. Which is fine. I went with blue clicky switches and they are kind of meh. Havent taken the time to lube them but the space bar sounds incredibly hollow and different compared to the rest of the keys, you can really tell when the space is being pressed. I had to use the cable it came with to get my computer to auto-download the drivers. After that it worked with my Glorious coiled cable. Mine is a USB-C all though the ad does still show micro usb in their photos. The RK software does absolutely nothing for me, neither does the firmware download. Its a pain to get it to even download and when it does open it just shows a keyboard with absolutely no options to choose from or anything.. it literally does nothing. Also the shortcuts like (FN+||) and what not for changing to the 17 lighting modes does nothing, neither does the shortcut for brightness. So I am stuck with a mediocre lit blue LEDs with no customization. Overall the keyboard looks nice and itll be probably more of a piece of my display than using it. Would change out the clicky keys, they are a bit much.. Pros are it is cheap, looks decent, can take 3 or 5 pin switches and is hot swappable. I think it could use some new stabilizers though. Overall not horrible but their software and customization is non-exsistent.

It was a gift for my nephew. He likes gaming. He thinks it’s a great product

If you plan on using the up arrow keys or the /?, `~ keys regularly, this is not for you. I wanted a smaller form factor keyboard and misjudged how small I could go with it and still type effectively. 70% is much more usable for my needs. If you dont care about the keys listed above, this keyboard feels great, connects smoothly to multiple devices, and is tiny. I think its great for the price if it fits your daily use- if youre just typing standard English this is a great pick.

UPDATE: Got the board replaced and it works perfectly now. Based on other reviews there might be a bad batch. This board is great and sounds nice, but I have been FIGHTING it to stay connected. I have to have it hardwired and the dongle plugged in and even then its spotty with registering keystrokes. Ive plugged, unplugged, tried bluetooth, etc and all that has happened is now specific keys do not work.

This thing is amazing with my steam deck and pc alike, for a non expensive keyboard it is for sure my favorite

The led was suprisingly bright and the keyboard it’s self was smaller than I expected one thing tho I don’t think it’s hot swappable the switch does not come off but so far so good

This keyboard is quite good. The build quality is on point and the switches feel good, even if they are nock-off Cherry MX. I own the Anne pro 2 as well as this RK61, (my anne pro has Gateron Red switches, and the RK61 has blues, so they are quite different). they are nearly identical to one another with the Anne pro 2 coming up just slightly ahead of the RK61 in terms of build quality. (to be expected, as the Anne pro 2 is double the price). If this is your first mechanical keyboard and you are trying to choose what type of switch to get, your first thought might be to get blues. they are tactile, clicky, basically everything you think of when you think about a mechanical keyboard, and how it should sound. BUT

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