Greater than one weekThis keyboard is the most obnoxiously loud keyboard ive ever heard in my life - and I work in IT enough to tell you from experience what the normal noise range is (if thats even a thing). My husband bought this and he works all day on the phone as welm. Its the most obnoxious thing ever. Whenever we talk over the phone all i hear is clicking and clacking. Ill be in the next room over and ill still hear that thing. Hes had it for two years and hear I am telling you I have yet to get used to the noise level. (I could also never get used to this type of keyboard model but thats just me) Youve been warned people

> 3 dayKeyboard arrived within 24 hrs! I bought this for my teen’s online schooling & as a wireless keyboard for the M1 Mac Mini. The key board is noisy (reminds me of the old key boards in the 1990s) but my teen actually loves the clicking noises as they type and use the keyboard. They also like how you can easily customize the LED light features of keyboard. With teens using the keyboard, I expect a lot of pounding and wear & tear, which is why the allure of a gaming keyboard appealed to me. I figured if it was good enough for gaming it should hold up under the use of high school students :) Battery charge has held up with daily online school use (it has been about a week so far w/o needing to charge it)... Awesome value! Would definitely purchase again.

> 3 dayI 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.

> 3 dayIt 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.

> 3 dayI have two of these now. One with brown switches the other with red. The red is definitely a bit more clicky, but not by much. It also seems to require less effort than the brown. I have used both for typing as well as gaming with no issues. For now I have the red on my main Windows gaming rig and the brown on the Linux box. Have not had them long enough to attest to longevity, but they are great out of the box. I have also only used them wired, so I cannot speak to the Bluetooth aspect. The whole 60% size thing took a bit getting used to, but not a big deal. I just hit FN Ctrl to enable function keys in games that use them and then switch back for normal functions. I know the kids will bot like this, but all light blue is much better than RGB. Now if these guys would only make a matching mouse, I would be good to go. I prefer a smaller lighter mouse with scroll wheel with click than the larger, heavier gaming variety as I use a slightly tall wrist rest and a finger claw grip.

> 3 dayI 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
