IPX6 Dustproof&WaterproofThe keyboard stands out also because of its IPX6 dustproof and waterproof mainboard design. It’s practical and unusual. No worries about unexpected water spill on the keyboard. | Dye-Sublimation PBT KeycapsWe chose to go with a top-grade PBT thermal sublimation keycaps. PBT keycaps are often considered the top choice for keycap materials, even over ABS keycaps, as PBT is much more durable, oil-resistant (won’t get shiny over time like ABS), and stays true to color longer. Our keycaps are also abrasion-resistant, waterproof, and dust resistant to keep your keyboard lasting longer – even for the daily on-the-go lifestyle. | USB-C to USB 3.0 PortThe SK61/61S is fully compatible with every operating system (OS) from Mac/iOS to Android and Windows, and you can easily switch between the different OS with just the flip of a switch. |

it was a gift for my son. He likes it very much, only problem he had was switching the keys and finding keys for the board.
Absolute beast for gaming and also I noticed it has best build quality for the price. Would recommend this for gaming.
My son loves this gaming keyboard. I purchased this keyboard along with gaming mouse and pad for birthday present.
ich habe die yellow switches variante seit 4 monaten und benutze die auch als mein main tastatur und bis jetzt laeuft alles gu
Muy comodo, buen sonido para el precio. Con algunos mods simples puede mejorar bastante
I tried the optical red board and the mechanical brown board, the brown board was much less clacky and scratchy with no mods. These were the simple mods I did to improve sound as a keyboard newbie (literally my first mechanical keyboard ever):
1. bought a lube kit and lubed up my brown switches
2. switched out the springs to 62g from the stock springs (I think they’re 45g and not heavy enough for me)
3. upgraded to a cuter PBT keycap set (also purchased on amazon for 20 bucks or so)
4. lubed my stabilizers to reduce rattling on the bigger keys
Total effort took 4-5 hours but it’s well worth it for a board that sounds really nice and everything was under $100. Would def do this again and maybe add some foam to the board to help dampen additional noise. The keyboard world is so overwhelming but I found that lots of research and youtube videos were helpful with guiding me through what switches I should look for and how to properly lube and care for my board.
Bastante bueno de estetica y agradable al tacto, pero engaoso no tiene bluetooth.. me sent algo defraudado.
Por el precio podria aver cogido alguno otro con bluetooth como un akko , le doy 4/5 .
Per scrivere e’ un fenomeno, per giocare anche, per lavoro mi trovo ugualmente bene! Con un paio di modifiche qui e li’ sono riuscito a silenziarla (Switch ottici rossi lubrificati, tape mod e foam mod) in modo da poterla usare al liceo per prendere appunti prima di passare a tablet e tastiera a parte bluetooth (la mia versione e’ solo cavo), ora e’ fissa al mio computer-workstation su cui ci gioco anche (di rado, ma che ci possiamo fa’..)
A differenza di una tastiera meccanica con switch meccanici il movimento e’ molto piu’ liscio, da quasi l’impressione di essere “vuoto”, soprattutto se si prende la versione con switch rossi lineari, i quali sono molto leggeri. E’ una sensazione che puo’ piacere come puo’ piacere, a me piace un botto!
Gli effetti di luce on-board sono… meh, ma c’e’ la sua applicazione dedicata che ti premette di customizzare praticamente tutto! E’ na bomba!
Consiglio molto!
Premetto che le tastiere 60% mi hanno sempre fatto impazzire per la loro comodit, sono passato da una membrana tastiera molto grande a una 60% i primi giorni ho avuto difficolta ad abituarmi a questa nuova tipologia di tastiera, ora mi ci trovo benissimo, tastiera presa con i switch optical gatereon yellow ultra reattivi con una pressione del tasto molto leggera, la tastiera vi viene fornita con i seguenti strumenti che servono a togliere i tasti e magari a cambiare anche i switch, i tasti sono facilissimi da togliere e la tastiera molto facile da pulire, un altra roba molto piacevole di sta tastiera il water resistant, il cavo type c che vi viene fornito insieme alla tastiera ha un materiale super resistente e non da problemi/fastidio. La tastiera ha anche un software per settare i colori della tastiera che si pu installare online chiamato GK6Xplus.
Mon fils voulait un clavier mcanique pour…. travailler (cf photo)
Il a russi s’habituer la configuration AZERTY avec seulement une partie des touches et il est trs satisfait du clavier pour l’usage qu’il en fait.
Very nice keyboard, clean feeling but gonna be hard getting use to a smaller keyboard!
Tastiera super compatta, presa per mio figlio che la utilizza principalmente per gaming, compatta e abbastanza funzionale, non proprio leggera ma cmq ben fatta, effetti di luce di diverse tipologie molto simpatici.
This is the best keyboard I have owned. It is so fast and sounds incredible (I got yellows). I have read other reviews but none of them seem to relate to my experience as it has worked perfectly for months.
Cercavo qualcosa che ingombrasse poco e questo questa tastiera 60% perfetta. Solo che la sk61 non ha il bluetooth.
Ive had this keyboard for about 3 weeks and so far ive only had one problem which was the spacebars stabalizer housing i took off the spacebar with my keycap puller and the stabalizers slider thing came right off it took me a while to fix it but i ended up fixing it because it was a lot easier with the plate mount stabs so far thats the only problem and i would definetely reccomend this keyboard i sold my 120$ 60% for this and its alot faster and its hot swappable.
In my opinion the keyboard is good got Green Switches panda keyboard one thing about it do not use the key cap Puller Cost it will leave a mark on your keyboard
A voir avec le temps , mais pour le moment le clavier est plutt plaisant utilis
I purchased this keyboard for $75CAD on sale and it feels AMAZING. I purchased the non-optical mechanical switches as I prefer the actuation and noise levels. The typing on this KB feels incredible at stock and the only key that has a tiny bit of rattle is the spacebar (naturally as it is a bit bigger). With regards to gaming I have noticed zero difference in key speed vs my razer keyboard optical oranges.
I ordered and compared the SK61 and RK61 with different OPTICAL mechanical switches and they just don’t feel the same at all quality wise in the keycaps/switches. Maybe it’s just my preference.
A pretty good sounding keyboard. I bought it for 55 eurs and for the price it’s a really good keyboard
I adore this keyboard! The sound it makes scratches my brain in the best way, the LED light looks super good!
The keys are a bit sensitive ( I do press my keys a bit hard so that might be my fault) and the use the arrows you need to press FN, which can make the whole experience tricky. Also I have yet to figure out how to make the / symbol, which was not a problem on my previous keyboard. All in all, 9/10.
My first fully customizable keyboard, and I learned a lot from it. Took it apart to modify it; added some weight to the base and some fabric to dampen the slight hollow sound, some stiff o-rings to shorten the key throw. I found out the optical version doesn’t have the repairability factor regular mechanical switches do, all the functional bits are part of the switchboard, and the keys just block the lights on the board. It’s perfectly fine for gaming, need to learn the function combinations for a 60%(?) the lighting software seems to have it’s own drivers, and there doesn’t seem to be a Linux app. The onboard profiles provide a good bit on their own. Overall great first mechanical keyboard, but definitely a gateway to spending more money on the hobby.
Ik vind het alleen jammer dat die software niet werkt verder prima ding
his keyboard is pretty good. The keycaps are the highlights they look very aesthetic. switches are nice and feel good to type on. stabs however are poor as you would expect from an unmodded board so the spacebar shift and backspace keys are pretty rattly but that can be fixed with new stabs. nice to type on and play games with overall great keyboard would recommend but buy new stabilisers and lube if you dont like the rattle in some keys.
…aber! Ich benutze macOS und leider kann man die Pfeiltasten (FN gedrueckt halten und die Tasten links daneben sind die Pfeiltasten) nicht zusammen mit CTRL oder ALT (also CMD und Option auf macOS) verwenden. Diese Tastendruecke werden leider nicht an das System uebermittelt. SHIFT geht jedoch. Ich benutze leider sehr haeufig CMD oder Option mit den Pfeiltasten zusammen (was dann sozusagen mit CMD+FN+ALT/MENU/CTRL/? waere) um mit dem Cursor Woerter oder an den Zeilenanfang oder Zeilenende zu springen. Das ist mit dieser Tastatur nicht moeglich. Ich hab sie zurueckgeschickt, ging wie gewohnt ohne Probleme und mir jetzt das SK64 bestellt. Sie ist genauso gross aber hat extra Pfeiltasten. Damit sollte es gehen 😉
My only issue is that the keys are a bit ”wobbly” but it doesn’t affect your input at all, some keys might just look ”crooked” because of it. The cable that came with it would light up the keyboard but the keys were unresponsive so I had to use one of mine but it’s no big deal.
I’m very satisfied, I could never go back to 100% keyboards and off brand switches.
Ya tiene tiempo que hice la compra y l teclado sigue a la perfeccin, sus switches son de lo mejor y su tamao es bastante cmodo
Would recommend, switches feel buttery smooth and stabilizers came pre lubed
it sounds really good and its hotswap so hello to modding!
Basically the keyboard is really nice and very good for gaming, but the LED function fails to work on console once you try to program it using the instructed download. It only allows for the standard LED function when on console, but if you wanna get it for PC gaming I highly recommend.
I wish the Color’s could be changed easier but still real good
I was quite suspicious of this keyboard at first as it sounded too good to be true but I took my chance and I’m very satisfied. I ordered the gateron red switches that produce a very satisfying sound and are very durable I ordered them on a Saturday and it came on Monday(2 days early) this keyboard is very good for gaming and I would recommend it to anybody looking for a reliable mechanical keyboard.
Bought this for my grandson who is a gamer. He loves it. The product is robust, colourful and ‘clicky’. Very versatile in that you can change the keyboard to how you like it. Would recommend.
Klawiatura gamingowa super ale nie da si zainstalowa polskich sterownikw i czcionki.
as a girl gamer i really really love the design very durable case, high quality plastic and the key caps are AMAZING, so are the switches (optical reds). i would go as far as saying its better than my anne pro 2 🙂
Ho usato questa tastiera per il gaming.
Ottima qualit, ottimi RGB forse un p tenui da lontano
ha tanti stili di illuminazione ed e robusta/resistente molto bella.
Einfach nur geil
Vor allem die Yellow Optical haben es voll in sich.Die besten Switches fr Gaming mit Abstand.Stabilisatoren sind auch klasse und alles in einen fr diesen Preis ist es wirklich zu krass
Had this board for just over a year and honestly, it’s a great buy. The stabilizers aren’t the best and could use some work though. One issue I had was the disassembly. I had only actually got into mechanical keyboards about 4-ish months ago and very recently decided to finally disassemble and clean it. Things went smoothly then. A few days later I disassembled again to foam mod it, and in a snap the usb-c receiver had broke off. I’m sure there is somewhere you can take it to get it fixed, but if you intend on taking it apart be very careful. I bought this a year ago so this issue might now still be present, but other than that I think this is a great buy if you want a cheap thocky board.
Very satisfied, my first good quality keyboard since the cheap ones became prevalent.
Mein Sohn ist begeistert er hat sich die Tastatur vom Taschengeld geholt ich als Mutter finde den Preis etwas zuviel
It was easy to set up and the instructions where simple to follow and the keyboard as a whole is very nice to use and doesnt feel cheap
Leider war die Ware leicht verschmutzt (Kugelschreiberspuren am Tastatur Rahmen und leichte Schmutzspuren an einigen Tasten). rgerlich fr den Preis, besonders, wenn es sich ein Kind vom Ersparnis kauft…
Un teclado de buena calidad, robusto y completamente modular. Mi hijo se ha divertido desarmndolo por completo para colocarle una capa de espuma a manera de colchn para mejorar el sonido de las teclas. Es completamente programable con el software del producto. Est muy bien, la verdad.
he overall feel of the keyboard is great and the sound with the keys is brilliant the only problem i had with the whole thing was the software for the rgb color but this was quickly resolved with help of a YouTube video highly recommend
Got it for xmas for our son and he loves it. Says it has a great feel
