    Fantastic wired/wireless 60% for the price and good for Macs!

    Fantastic wired/wireless 60% for the price and good for Macs!
    Was interested in diving into the world of mech keyboards but didn't want to spend 200 on a very intense keyboard. Thought I'd look at some interesting cheap options for wired/wireless keebs and go from there. I kept coming back to the RK61 based on online reviews saying that it was great for the price and I totally agree. For reference, this is my first actual keyboard purchase. All the other keyboards I've used in the past have been attached to the laptop, lol.I chose 60% because I don't use any of the keys above the numbers line. Nor do I use any page up/down keys or home buttons, etc. It's super compact as a result and I love this part. Obviously, if you use those or want separate arrow keys, maybe consider a 65% or TKL or something. I do have to say I was super hesitant about getting this because I only use Mac. The fact that there were no Mac keycaps kind of bothered me and I didn't know how easy it'd be to switch functionality. I was also hesitant about the fact that the arrow keys were not separate, especially being in the design profession and having to use arrow keys quite often. Happy to say that the keyboard settings in the Mac menu are easy to switch around, making the cmd key the one closest to the spacebar and solving that issue. I don't really care so much about the actual keycaps saying stuff different as long as I know the functionality is there. And the arrow keys, honestly. Took a couple tries to get used to it but now (3 days later), it's very natural to me to hit the fn key while using the arrow keys. Please note, before you can use fn to use arrow key functionality, you must first (on the new model, at least) hit fn+enter in order to get it to shift to that usage. Everything else is fine!Super happy that for about 50, I could get a wired and wireless version. I use the keyboard right next to my hooked up MBP and a monitor and have never experienced lag. I would use the wire but it looks messy and I like to keep my desk clean. Easy enough to charge at night anyway, when sleeping. Also really love the fact that this isn't RGB. I know some folks might want RGB (and I believe there is a version of this with it) but it was much too colorful for me and for my aesthetic, I wanted single color. The blue backlight is absolutely stunning with the white. Love it so much.Brown switch is fine for me although I tried a version with red switches and it does seem a tad quieter because it's linear and doesn't make a sound on the upstroke. But that's all up to personal preference. I haven't tried the Bluetooth switching since I only got one device so can't speak to that. Even though there is only one backlight, there are still many options for light effects as well as dimming or brightening the backlight. Additionally, it feels weighty and feels solid and not cheaply made, another great plus.One last thing to mention is that it does have to 'wake up' after a period of no usage. So whereas my Mac keyboard could regularly wake up the laptop on one click, I have to first click to wake up the keeb and then click again to wake up the Mac. No big issue for me but worthy of mentioning. Overall, amazing purchase as a first keyboard. I even purchased additional keycaps to get it to look a bit more custom!Vote HELPFUL if this review was useful for you! It would definitely encourage me to write more reviews!

Happy to say that the keyboard settings in the Mac menu are easy to switch around, making the cmd key the one closest to the spacebar and solving that issue. I don't really care so much about the actual keycaps saying stuff different as long as I know the functionality is there. And the arrow keys, honestly. Took a couple tries to get used to it but now (3 days later), it's very natural to me to hit the fn key while using the arrow keys. Please note, before you can use fn to use arrow key functionality, you must first (on the new model, at least) hit fn+enter in order to get it to shift to that usage. Everything else is fine!

    Super happy that for about 50, I could get a wired and wireless version. I use the keyboard right next to my hooked up MBP and a monitor and have never experienced lag. I would use the wire but it looks messy and I like to keep my desk clean. Easy enough to charge at night anyway, when sleeping. Also really love the fact that this isn't RGB. I know some folks might want RGB (and I believe there is a version of this with it) but it was much too colorful for me and for my aesthetic, I wanted single color. The blue backlight is absolutely stunning with the white. Love it so much.

    Brown switch is fine for me although I tried a version with red switches and it does seem a tad quieter because it's linear and doesn't make a sound on the upstroke. But that's all up to personal preference. I haven't tried the Bluetooth switching since I only got one device so can't speak to that. Even though there is only one backlight, there are still many options for light effects as well as dimming or brightening the backlight. Additionally, it feels weighty and feels solid and not cheaply made, another great plus.

    One last thing to mention is that it does have to 'wake up' after a period of no usage. So whereas my Mac keyboard could regularly wake up the laptop on one click, I have to first click to wake up the keeb and then click again to wake up the Mac. No big issue for me but worthy of mentioning. Overall, amazing purchase as a first keyboard. I even purchased additional keycaps to get it to look a bit more custom!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic wired/wireless 60% for the price and good for Macs!

    Was interested in diving into the world of mech keyboards but didn't want to spend 200 on a very intense keyboard. Thought I'd look at some interesting cheap options for wired/wireless keebs and go from there. I kept coming back to the RK61 based on online reviews saying that it was great for the price and I totally agree. For reference, this is my first actual keyboard purchase. All the other keyboards I've used in the past have been attached to the laptop, lol.

    I chose 60% because I don't use any of the keys above the numbers line. Nor do I use any page up/down keys or home buttons, etc. It's super compact as a result and I love this part. Obviously, if you use those or want separate arrow keys, maybe consider a 65% or TKL or something. I do have to say I was super hesitant about getting this because I only use Mac. The fact that there were no Mac keycaps kind of bothered me and I didn't know how easy it'd be to switch functionality.

    I bought the RK Royal Kludge RK61 Wireless mostly for gaming but now mainly use it for typing. I was curious about how it would feel to play with a smaller keyboard since I saw some pros using some. However, I found it hard to adjust to the layout and I kept pressing the wrong keys, like 'Esc' instead of '1'. This is not a problem with the keyboard itself, but with my own fault. The keyboard has decent keycaps, but I would prefer to change them. I don't use the wireless mode much, so I don't know how long the battery lasts. The brown switches are nice for typing, and they sound even better after I modded the keyboard. I added some foam inside and desoldered the switches to lubed them and the stabilizers. The result was a very satisfying typing experience. I think this keyboard is a good choice for anyone who wants to try a 60% keyboard for gaming or wants to try and mod a keyboard for the first time.

    Brought this keyboard, battery gave out relatively quick, was busy so I basically threw in the closet and forgot about it for a while, went back after months, realized it was still in warranty took a shot in the dark and they took care of me, new keyboard hasn't had any issues and it's a fantastic small form factor keyboard for travel.

    $50 dollar wireless RGB mechanical keyboard!? PogO! However it have it's short comings.

    1. First of all, it's cheap. All plastic body build makes it extremely lightweight and at times feels like a toy. The keys sounds just okay (like Pepsi).

    2. The battery life of this keyboard is not that great. For a wireless gaming sessions, I often run out of battery after 2-3 hours of gaming. So now I just use the wired often instead so it kinda defeat's the wireless purpose.

    3. The function keys is a mess! so there are few modes you can switch around to that changes what the function key does. But at the normal mode, I can't get the volume key to work. The only mode that volume keys work, the number keys and letter y, u, i , h, j, k doesn't work as letter inputs anymore.

    At the end of the day. It is a solid $50 keyboard that does every okay (like Pepsi). If you have the money, just spend it and get better keyboards. However, if you are on a budget this is a relatively good option.

    I am pleased with this mechanical keyboard, especially for the price point. I purchased the keyboard a year ago for both work and gaming, and did not have too many issues aside from needing to learn the different key combinations. After about 9 months of use, the USB-C port seemed to become loose, and I started to drop connection when trying to use the keyboard in wired mode. I contacted Royal Kludge Official's customer support to see what could be done, and they sent me a new keyboard, free of charge, to replace the one I purchased, and all within 3 days of me reaching out to them. I will say I did plug and unplug the keyboard once a day to switch from Bluetooth for my work setup to wired for my gaming setup, but I wasn't rough by any means. Hopefully they can improve the USB-C port to be more durable to account for this. Overall, I am happy with the new keyboard and their customer service.

     This keyboard literally out of the box made me tear up. It is so quiet and comfortable and it just has this sort of calming effect to it. It is such an upgrade compared to this huge clacky razer keyboard I was using. No hate to razer but this is just perfect. The price is super low for this amount of quality, not to mention the neatness of everything and all the stuff they include

    I try the / button, doesn't work. The CONTROL+C / CONTROL+V, doesn't work. I need a whole separate keyboard for one key!! I've tried everything, nothing works. But other than that, it's a decent keyboard, not worth $50 but maybe $40.

    The price seemed too good to be true. Great little keyboard. It took my brain a few weeks to adjust to the smaller size, but now I am typing away. Wireless works great, light modes are really cool. The battery needs charged about every week with high usage. Great for a white desk/setup. Love the blue glow on this one.

    For some reason the F keys are glitched and now i cannot type numbers because the pc and consoles think it types F1 instead of 1 for example.

    Sometimes, in Bluetooth mode, it will get stuck on one letter and repeatedly input that character. I'm not sure what's causing the issue.
