    I bought this for super cheap when they were doing a sale. The cool blue backlight is pleasing to the eye. The backlighting effects are neat but unnecessary in my opinion. The RK blue clicky switches are very similar to gateron blues: Not so loud that it annoys me to type on, just a satisfying tactile click. Its still to much noise for an office environment though. I have installed dampeners that prevent the keycaps from bottoming out so it makes even less noise, but its still more audible than say a cherry mx or gateron brown. I use this keyboard (almost) expressly for my cellphone for texting, social media, or whatnot. It stays plugged in most of the time to a charger. So I have to turn on the bluetooth which is quite easy. It also is connected to my iPad and PC; and switching between them is a simple FN+Q,FN+W,or FN+E. And that works much better and reliably faster than any bluetooth headphones Ive ever owned. I do have a couple of gripes: 1. It will only stay connected via bluetooth before disconnecting for one minute without touching a key. Then I have to hit a key to get it to reconnect. My SK61 board is closer to 5 mins and more preferable. I wish that was adjustable. 2. The switch to turn on the Blutooth is on the back. Kind of annoying when youre not used to it. I wish there was a hot-key combo that powers it on and off like other keyboards. 3. When switched on, it does NOT save the setting of having the arrow keys (ALT,MENU,CTRL, and ?) turned off. You have to turn it off to use a question mark for typing EVERY SINGLE TIME. This combo is (FN+enter). A minor, but noteworthy gripe. 4. The case and keycaps are CHEAP. The case looks like a piece of cheap plastic that does not belong on a decent mechanical keyboard, and will probably shatter if dropped. The keycaps are the same. Although the font is easy to read, and the shine-through is nice, it feels like youre typing on plastic wrap. I dont know if its the ABS material or not. But they kinda suck. So I had to swap those out. Otherwise, this is a decent keyboard and decent value

    The keys are really close together. If this was more staggered or tiered, it would have been a great competitor for gaming. As it is, I was constantly hitting multiple keys.

    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 keyboard is a 61 key desgin with blue mechanical keys, yellow lighting, and wireless functionality. In this review, I will be talking about the build/design, the blue mechanical switches, and the lighting. Build The build is very compact, which i personally do like. It helps if you need to travel and you want to bring a good keyboard for work or gaming. Unless you definitely need a number pad, having a smaller design should not make a big difference to you. Sadly, the keyboard is made fully out of glossy plastic. There is one input for charging/wired use, and a on and off switch for the Bluetooth functionality. Mechanical Swtiches These switches are knock off cherry blue switches. being a knock off doesnt mean they are bad. In fact, these switches have a very satisfying click and help create a better typing experience. In particular, the space bar makes a distinctly different noise than all of the keys, which gets surprising annoying while typing. For all those people that do not know mechanical switches, Ill leave a quick explanation of most switches below. These switches are very nice for typing and long hours of usage, but I highly recommend getting a different switch for gaming such as red or brown Lighting Now, we all know the craze for rgb keyboards, but there is only so much we can ask for in a $40 wireless mechanical keyboard. There is yellow lighting with adjustable brightness. Sadly there are no effects with these lights and yellow is the only color for the black version. The lights do look very good during all times of the day, and shut off when you have not used the keyboard for a certain amount of time. Overall, this keyboard is a very nice compact design, which some extra bells and whistles we all want to have. I highly recommend buying this item for everyday use and travel use.This product was sent to me for no charge in exchange for my honest review.

    It has ups and downs if you are tight on budget then yeah it gets the job done, Feels good while typing and gaming, and sounds good also the build quality is decent, BUT The wireless option sucks it has a lot of issues like the keys sometimes wont work sometimes it types double, I dont know I expected better to be honest. Anyways It got 3.7 on my scale.

    COVID has me working in my small home office. I have my work MacBook, my Windows Laptop, and my old iMac all jammed onto a small desktop. Wanting to clean up my desk, I was looking for a Bluetooth keyboard that would work with all three. Which brought me to this small, wireless keyboard with the ability to pair with three machines. Heres the good news, this is a well-made keyboard. Its fast. If you have the ability to type very fast, the switches on this keyboard have strong tactile feedback that allows you to actuate each key without fully depressing the key. If you arent a touch typist, this probably isnt the keyboard for you. If you are a touch typist, you have three key combos that you will need to learn, or the benefits of this keyboard miss you entirely. This is a noisy keyboard, for a reason. If you are a touch typist, you may like the audible click each keypress makes. This is, however, not a friendly keyboard for use in a shared workspace. This is a small keyboard, but it has full-sized keys. This is great if you are a touch typist with a small, private, workspace. It does require some tradeoffs. In order to make the keyboard small, but retain full-sized keys, there are fewer keys than a standard 101 keyboard, this machine has multiple functions or layers for many of the keys. This keyboard has full-sized arrow keys that occupy one layer. Press Fn+Enter and that layer is disabled and now the up arrow becomes the /? key. Left arrow becomes the right Alt key and the Right arrow becomes the right CTRL-key. (Im not sure what the down arrow becomes.) Tada! In my case, I also need to flip the functions of the keyboard from windows to Mac. To do that, I hit Fn+A or Fn+S Then I have access to all the windows or Apple functions. I can use Fn Q to switch to my work laptop, Fn W to switch to my windows laptop and Fn E to switch to my old iMac. Kudos to this keyboard for having EXCELLENT Bluetooth management and excellent power management. It reliably stays connected to the machine I want it connected. It reliably switches on command. It reliably reconnects after it has gone to sleep. In this regard, it is even better than my old Apple wireless keyboard. Finally, the top row of keys acts both as your regular numeral row and your Function keys. To toggle that layer, I hit Fn+Ctrl to flip back and forth. Admittedly, Remembering these three key combos takes a little getting used to. The instructions are sparse, but they exist, and the keyboard functions as advertised. This is a loud, clicky keyboard. I kinda like it, though I have to close my office door or my wife will comment on the noise. The keyboard has survived its first week of use on one charge, so that seems acceptable. It charges through its included USB cable. The battery is permanent and not hot-swappable. The key switches are permanently soldered in, so they arent swappable either. The keycaps are swappable, and I may just buy a new keycap for the WIN button. Oh, it has amber lights. I have the black version of this keyboard and they look nice, though I dont really need all the wavy patterns. The layers thing doesnt bother me too much, but it is hard to get used to my wife laughing whenever I type. _____ Ive spent a bit more time with this keyboard and Ive added a start. It was easy for me to add the Fn+Enter to toggle the arrow keys and Fn+Ctrl to toggle the function keys. Im super happy with the ability to switch between three devices on demand. This really is a great keyboard for the money, and the seller did a great job getting the keyboard shipped promptly. They even sent a personal follow up email to ensure everything went well and that all my questions were answered.

    This keyboard is incredibly well made and nice to type on but suffers from serious usability issues compounded by poor documentation. The default when you turn it on is to have several keys on the lower right remapped to arrow keys -- including the question mark. To get the regular keys back you need to hit function-Enter. This is NOT in the documentation -- the documentation says you have to hit function-control twice to do this. Not true. I learned that here in the amazon reviews. Apparently you can disable the windows/command key by hitting function-windows. I dont know why youd ever want to do this. I did it by accident a few times and I had no idea what happened. This keyboard would be hugely improved by a set of indicator lights to show you what configuration options youd switched on and off. As it stands theres no way to know except by hitting keys and trying to figure it out by what it is and isnt doing. Basically to use this keyboard well you have to somehow glean what all the (sometimes poorly documented) config options are and be ready to diagnose when you need to use them (and maybe when youve accidentally activated them). If you do all that, you may have a great time with this excellently made keyboard. If not, you will just find frustration. Bottom line, great keyboard but a huge challenge to learn to use well

    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.

    I do programming for a living and this keyboard was a nightmare to code on. To type a simple forward slash, I had to press a function key. Learning how to operate the keyboard was worse than actually using a larger form factor keyboard. I cannot recommend this for anyone not willing to learn the multitude of shortcuts to just use basic characters on the keyboard. On the other hand, the build quality was great. Typing felt good on the keys and the backlighting was cool looking. 3 stars for me for the build, but usability took off 2 stars because of the complexity of using the thing.
