Arrived on time. Exactly what I expected. My son loves i
Good:
Feels great, looks great
Bad:
2.4ghz dongle came apart inside my usb port on first try, see picture
Can’t do “cntrl+alt+delete” without having to reset keyboard afterwards (fn+spacebar to reset). “Left control+alt+Fn+backspace” does nothing, “right control+alt+fn+backspace” gets the desired result but firstly that is awkward and secondly it changes the keyboard settings so you can’t use the numbers unless you do a reset (fn+spacebar).
Update: After leaving this review RK contacted me and gave me a 50% refund for the damaged dongle. They also offered a full refund if I returned it or an exchange. I have now raised my review to reflect this.
Past that, this is a great board. No rattle on any of the stabilisers, nice deep sound on all keys.
The RGB lighting could be brighter, and the Orange tone looks like an awful yellow rather than actual Orange, but with the software you can set your own custom RGB values and they’re saved directly to the board, so I was able to sort that quickly too.
All in all, really happy with my purchase! Perfect budget board for anyone who wants to get into Mechanical keyboards, with the potential to swap in newer switches without any soldering if you want to experiment.
My God is the price so worth it.
Mine is full rib and its soooooo customisable but if you don’t need the light you can turn it off for a more subtle keyboard. Feels great pairs both with my windows and MacBook laptops through Bluetooth and the latency is low.
I don’t use it for gaming so cannot comment on that but the look feel and features it’s a steal at this price point. Highly recommended
A few things to point out though. The keyboard does not come with a dongle so make sure your motherboard has bluetooth or you already have a multi use bluetooth dongle.
I went for the tactile brown switches and they feel and sound good without being too loud. The only problem I have with any of the keys is that the space bar makes more of a hollow ‘clunk’ sound than a click which isn’t nice sounding or ideal… Not sure if this is down to build quality or the brown switches. This in no way puts me off the keyboard, I’m still delighted, just something to keep in mind.
Only caveat? Even with brown -silent- switches, it is loud. My office mates definitely know when I’m typing and when I’m no
