> 3 dayI love this keyboard i customized it slightly adding new keycaps and o-rings. However there are some issues with it. Starting off as a big issue, the switches are very scratchy and pingy due to the springs and the tactile bump. the bump is nearly unnoticeable sometimes depending how fast you type. Next issue is that the rgb backlighting on the rim is nearly impossible to change with the software, you have to do a dance to get the rim to change static color. Another issue is the fact that you CANNOT use the flip up stands as they are so flimsy and will pop out of place almost every time you try. I bought two one a red linear and one a brown tactile, both had the same issues.

> 3 dayI wanted to try a mechanical keyboard, but specifically I wanted one that was white, full sized, and had RGB lighting options. I also couldnt afford one of the more expensive name brands and didnt want to invest in one until I tried it out. This ticks all my boxes and Im very happy with it so far! I havent tried swapping the keys for other styles but I look forward to doing that out soon. The clacky sound is satisfying but not too loud-- I got red switches and they are pretty subtle. My boyfriend and I work in the same space and my keyboard is definitely not as loud as his, which I find to be a bit too loud (I think he has brown switches). I love all the lighting options as well, there are many to choose to from. Overall I definitely recommend this keyboard to those looking for one!

23-11-2024I thought this would be just another rbg keyboard but they programming on this keyboard made my day. So many different ways to light up the board. The keyboard is also very easy to clean and doesnt have small pockets for debris to fall in. Best one I found in a while. Hoping this one lasts.

20-11-2024I was not sure what to expect of this keyboard, but it turned out to be really nice. I love the light color (white) for a change from the many black keyboards I already have, especially when I also wanted backlighting. The keyboard feels solid. The key feel is crisp and fantastic, just what I wanted from a mechanical keyboard. The lighting effects work as expected. Being able to light the border is a nice touch. Being able to control the brightness is a big plus. The one thing I dont like is that once I turn on the breathing effects, I have not figured out how to turn it off and leave the backlight on the keys turned on. I resorted to resetting the lighting effects and start over. Another consideration about this keyboard is that it has very little edges or empty spaces. If you are used to moving the keyboard around with one hand, its hard to grasp it and not bumping into keys. I resorted to using both hands to move it around. (I didnt game with this keyboard, so not rating it for gaming at all.)

> 3 dayI bought this keyboard in September 2020 since I was working from home. It was a great little keyboard for the price, cool color functions and a wonderful key feel. It was super easy to install, you just plugged it in and the drivers already loaded. Flash forward to February 2021: Now the keyboard has keys that do not work and others that just auto type gibberish with just one key press. I reached out to Amazon and they walked me through some trouble shooting and they were not able to help me. I reached out to the manufacturer and that is were the issues got worse. I sent in a video on what happens with keyboard and they said that unfortunately the three month warranty ( who has a 3 month warranty on an electronic??) had run out but if I was willing to leave a 5 star review they would send me a replacement. I replied I would be happy to give them a 5 star review once I received the product and made sure that it worked. To that they replied that they did not want to answer any more emails on this issue and would only send the product if I did the review first and sent in a screen shot to them of the 5 star review, then I could change it after. They also threw in there that this was their first job and would lose it if I did not do it this way. I This response was unprofessional and unethical. I will not be purchasing from this company again. There was no resolution to this issue.

> 3 dayMine 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.

> 3 dayI have at least three other Royal Kludge keyboards, and love them to death, but this one seems to be a step down in build quality. Thats okay, cuz it was a bit cheaper than my other purchases, and is quite a bargain for an entry level mechanical keyboard... which is all I was looking for.

Greater than one weekBought this keyboard mainly due to the factor of wanting a heavily RGB relevant keyboard thats white themed - even though the reviews talked about it being maybe cheapish in terms of build quality, I find that to be completely not true. Had my fair share of Ducky minis, hyperX alloy, func, corsair and logitech mechanical keyboards that were three times as expensive as this one and this is honestly BY FAR the best value + I had no issues with squeakiness or double clicks. The extra lay out of buttons is also great and the general feel from the get go is excellent as well without any tweaks.
