Punkston TH61 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard,RGB Backlit Wired Ultra-Compact Mini Mechanical Keyboard Full Keys Programmable Black (Hot-Swappable Optical Yellow, Black)

Really good keyboard.

i paid 150 for my ducky keyboard and this one feels better wtf

This is a nice keyboard, and I am overjoyed to have found something with Gateron-black style switches for this low a price. There is an issue with the switches, however. Only the black ones and the blue ones are correct, or at least according to convention anyway. My Punkston board came with a switch sample that includes all the ones you can get for this board. Heres the problem: Red is the heaviest linear, followed by Black, and then yellow. And brown is also linear, though I cant quite place where it is. Usually, Brown would be tactile, Red would be pretty light, Yellow would be a bit heavier than red, and Black would be pretty heavy for a linear. So only black (heavy linear) and Blue (clicky) are what youd expect. I am happy with my purchase because I wanted Gateron Black-like switches, which is what I got, but I suspect someone expecting browns or reds would be slightly disappointed in heavier-than-black reds and browns that werent tactile.

Excellent quality keyboard for the price. We were shocked how nice it was for the price. Definitely would buy again.

Producto increíble! Lo recomiendo comprar si necesitas un teclado.

I wanted to like this keyboard, I really did. And I do. But its not fantastic. I bought this keyboard because I wanted to have a 60% layout for gaming. For that, it works well. The switches are nice and clicky, I would have preferred tactile browns but the browns they offer are linear :(. They say they are optical switches and frankly I cant tell the difference between mechanical and optical mechanical. They feel good. The Blue switches feel just like a blue switch should. Their software is decent if you can get it to work. A fully addressable RGB keyboard for 30 ish dollars cannot be beat. I definitely recommend this keyboard as your primary keyboard for gaming, however like the description says, I would not do office work on this keyboard for it does not have enough keys to be comfortable to type on. I still prefer the TKL layout for typing and the full size for my day job because I work with numbers. The case is plastic but for this pricepoint I dont expect aluminum. Some screws you can see behind the keycaps but I think throwing a fresh set of black pudding shine through keycaps on this would make it look like a higher end keyboard for an under $50 investment. Overall for gaming this keyboard rivals the Razer Huntsman mini and other 60% layout boards for a very affordable price for a beginner gamer, or someone who wants to test out the 60% layout.

This keyboard is amazing, especially at the price point. I bought this keyboard after my GK61 broke and I was stuck with a membrane keyboard. I always find myself on a low budget, so when I stumbled upon this keyboard, I immediately bought it. I have no regrets purchasing this keyboard. At this price, I was able to get an optical keyboard with fully customizable RGB, a detachable USB-C cable, pre-installed foam, pre-lubed stabilizers, and a great software. This keyboard can compete with other more pricey optical gaming keyboards. For example, the GK61. The TH61 is on par with the GK61 if not better than it. The TH61 (in my opinion) has a more functional and usable software, better lighting, a better cable, a better case design, and better textured keycaps. The only thing I could imagine being upset about with this keyboard are its key caps. The legends on the keycaps are printed in the classic gamery font that you tend to see on most cheap keyboards, but at this price point, with all it offers, I am not complaining, especially since the keycaps are well textured, better than the GK61s. There is also some slight spring ping that the switches produce but it is very hard to hear unless you listen for it. Ive seen a lot of people complain about how the arrow keys dont work or how it is inconvenient having to toggle them on or off. There is a way to use both the primary and secondary functions of those keys without having to toggle them on/off. If you have the arrow keys toggled off, just hold Fn and click one of the keys labeled with an arrow and your device will detect the input as you clicking the arrow key, and vice versa if you have it toggled on. Overall, this keyboard is a great keyboard, whether youre on a budget looking for a value keyboard or youre just trying to find a good simple gaming keyboard thats just plug and play. I would recommend this keyboard to anyone I know looking for a simple and easy-to-use 60% gaming keyboard.

I was looking for a budget friendly mechanical keyboard. This is just that. The key caps are not bad but I was planning to upgrade them and the switches to something that I wanted. The price is the best for an optical switch mechanical keyboard. I like how it comes with a decent keycap and switch puller. The switches I chose were the red switches and performance was good. I may upgrade them to gateron optical brown switches. I like the braided usb cable and response is really good. The main structure of the keyboard is built well and no reasons why it would not last long. The RGB lighting options are good and very surprised with the price of this keyboard given what it includes. If you are looking for very economical keyboard and dont want to spend more than $50 this is the keyboard to get. If you like upgrading your mechanical keyboards this is just right. The switches I are not bad but would recommend to upgrade them and get PBT key caps. Stabilizers are not bad and dont provide a lot of rattle. They seem like they were lubed but I am no expert in mechanical keyboards. Overall the value, quality and product is just right for the price.

Nice compact design. The height wasnt too bad and I can type without needing a wrist rest. The key caps were nicely texturized and felt good to the touch. Feedback on the brown switches were better than anticipated. They feel adequately lubed, no scratching on the switches that I can hear and had enough actuation force that long typing session didnt feel tiring but felt good to keep going. I use this keyboard for both remote work during the day and gaming during free time and Id say its served me well for the past month since purchase. The only thing I had to get used to was needing to get used to placement of arrow keys and having to press function then arrow key presses. At first it was annoying to having to keep pressing function to use arrow keys but I got used to it over the weeks and I dont think twice about it now and can do it in one hand using my pinky finger. The RBGs are the nice touch but I usually keep it a static color, but the water resistance is great since I always have a beverage/water at my desk and I always seem to spill it near or on the keyboard. But with the keyboard being compact, its cleared enough space on my desk for me to spill on the desk rather than the keyboard. Overall I recommend for someone looking for compact 60% keyboard. No wireless option on the model I bought but I like wired anyways. I would buy again.

This is my second Punkston keyboard (first 60%) and I fully recommend this brand of keyboards. The switches feel great, just like Cherry MXs, and the build feels very sturdy despite being plastic. Lots of RGB styles that you can customize a bit. I got the black switches and they feel great for gaming and for typing. For the price its 10/10 would recommend
