RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK918 Wired Mechanical Keyboard, RGB Backlit Gaming Keyboard with Large LED Sorrounding Side Lamp, Full Size 108 Keys Mechanical 100% Anti-Ghosting Computer Keyboard, Red Switch White

Pros: Key caps are nicely done, good matte texture. LEDs are bright (with brightness control) and it just works. Very comfortable, smooth keyboard. Cons: Layout feels a bit cramped on the left side. No bevel around the keys at all, and the base is thick, so you might need a wrist rest. The instructions dont explain how to use the backlight recording function at all. Instructions also were incorrect for some of the Fn key options. Overall: I like it. Could use some improvements, but I like it.

Mine shipped directly in the keyboard box, no extra padding or sealing. In shipping ~60% of the key caps popped off and I think the 5 keys switch was slightly damaged and is on a hair trigger relative to the rest of the keys. The keyboard is lovely, click-y and looks great, but its hard to recommend given the way it ships.

Wow. This keyboard actually surprised me at its price point. I was fairly sure that it was going to be a China special, but its actually tenable for everyday things (for me, anyway). Im not a keyboard connoisseur, by any means, so grain of salt here. It has a metal faceplate on the base that seems to keep flex to a minimum when typing. Can you twist it by torquing both ends? Yes, but it doesnt feel flimsy. The switches are perfectly serviceable linear switches (not tactile), that have a nice feeling amount of travel. Theyre not overly noisy, but are more noisy than a mushy membrane keyboard. The lighting options are actually kind of absurd at this price, but a neat bonus.

Honestly, I bought this keyboard so I could be extra in my office. I tried four different keyboards before settling on this one. It is good for touch-typing and is quiet enough for where I work (though not completely silent). I prefer blue switches for gaming (specifically my Logitech G710+) but I would definitely recommend this for gaming if you want something inexpensive! The many different RGB options are super fun and Im blown away by how good of a value this keyboard is between the switches, layout, and RGB. The keycaps are swappable, too.

Right off the bat, the aesthetics of this keyboard were on par with what was promised and what I was hoping for. Ive been looking for a white keyboard to match my setup for a long time and that fits within my budget, and this one did not disappoint. This is a great budget keyboard for someone who might not want to drop a ton of money on a fancy mechanical keyboard but still wants to try it out or have something cuter than your average black, boring keyboard. I got the red linear switches and I absolutely love them. Super easy typing and the sound (which is the whole reason I was looking for red switches) is minimal for a mechanical keyboard and honestly is a pretty nice sound. I share an office with my boyfriend and he agrees the sound isnt super obnoxious or loud (especially compared to his mech-membrane keyboard) I am not an expert by any means in the realm of mechanical keyboards and different switches, but I am satisfied! The color customization on this keyboard is kind of insane for the price. I havent downloaded the software that comes with it, as other reviews stated it looked a little sketchy, but honestly even without it there are tons of different settings to play with. You might not get the game-integrated RGB without it, but I am cool with the 20-ish settings and combinations you can achieve without it. The edge-lighting is also really nice and not something you will probably get from other keyboards in this price range. The keyboard also came with a keycap puller and a couple of the keycaps were floating around in the box when I got it (not an issue, they popped right on and none were missing) so I am keen to assume it would be easy to switch out keycaps if thats your jam. Overall, for my light gaming and writing purposes, Im super satisfied.

Was not as great as portrayed in video on product

Everything about the keyboard is good except for a ringing noise if youre typing a little hard, specifically in the center of the keyboard. The keys are also just a little bit small and wont work that well if you have long or fat fingers so keep that in mind. Though for average people this keyboard will work great.

Was a little skeptical heard of bigger name brands but this one had great reviews and a little less . definitely great needed a good keyboard to work from home and im in love i will never look back . love how smooth it is love the clicky sounds as typing really great investment dont second guess this one . Also, arrived earlier then expected

I honestly dont know why this brand isnt bigger! For the money its insane! The feel is super premium and the custom lighting mode is a huge plus. I mean sure its not Corsair quality but its brighter than any Corsair keyboard Ive used, so do with that information as you will. Only issue is it doesnt have a dedicated software, nor is it compatible with any that Ive seen. So you cant sync it to something like iCue or AURA flow. But thats fine in my opinion

I was looking at the RK100, but I kinda needed a more familiar keyboard layout (100% keyboard, numpad and home-end keys) for programming as well as gaming. The material is sturdy but also feels plasticy and hollow. Definitely 45 buck keyboard kinda feel. Youre also gonna have to track down the RGB software for this thing. However it has everything I need in a keyboard, it just doesnt feel quite as satisfying to type on compared to my older Corsair K68 and even the Razer Ornata... If you need a keyboard that just does its job with brown or red switches, and dont care too much about how good the typing feel is, then this is the best in class as far as I know.
