> 3 dayThe keys feel super nice and easy to press. Im really happy that its the same key layout as a typical office keyboard since Im more of a casual gamer and work/type way more than I play games. I like that the keys are slimmer and the space bar is curved down like normal keyboards. This helps a lot more than youd think. With the keys not being super tall, it keeps your wrists from bowing up too high as well. The colors are awesome. Super easy to change. Just read the directions on what each thing does. Would recommend for one of the cheaper keyboards.

> 3 dayI recently bought the Redragon K503 gaming keyboard and its been fantastic. The quiet keys are responsive and durable, the RGB lighting is customizable with different modes and effects, and the ergonomic design is comfortable and spill-proof. It has 25 conflict-free keys, and multimedia keys and works well with all major computer brands and gaming PCs. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable gaming keyboard.

> 3 day7 preset color modes are nice. Connectivity is nice. Internal rechargeable battery doesnt last long though. Youll be charging it a couple times a week to keep it going. Might as well be corded! Update: I checked the product description and this is expected if youre using the colors on the keyboard. This short life is expected and Im changing my review to show that the keyboard delivers on what is promised - just didnt pay close enough attention to the details. Props to the manufacturer reaching out to me to help resolve the issue.

> 3 dayThis review is from the perspective of a non-gamer; I use my computer for productivity and web browsing. I don’t care about ghosting or a full rainbow of fancy colors; I just want good illumination in the dark. This keyboard replaced a cheap ($20) Logitech wireless keyboard that wasn’t backlit, and since I really liked that keyboard a lot, that’s what I’m comparing this keyboard to. The first thing I checked out was, of course, the backlighting. It’s relatively even across the entire keyboard. I cycled through the various colors just to check them out; I had intended to use plain old white but unfortunately I found that - even at full brightness - the white wasn’t quite bright enough. The same was true with several of the colors, including yellow, blue, and purple which would have been my second, third, and fourth choices. YMMV but I found that the only colors that were bright enough were red, green and hot pink. No way I could stand to look at hot pink for very long, and the red was just a little too aggressive for me, so I settled on green. Next, I checked the action/feel of the keys by typing a few paragraphs of random text. I found that it had a little too much travel for my taste but the bigger problem, for me, is that as I’ve continued to use it for a week or so, I’ve noticed that I seem to hit the wrong key and/or more than one key much more often on this keyboard than on the Logitech. I don’t know if the Redragon has non-standard key spacing (or maybe the Logitech does) or if my fingers were just having a bad week but it’s pretty frustrating. Another area where this keyboard doesn’t stack up well against the Logitech is the “dedicated function” keys (multimedia, volume, web browser, etc.) While the Redragon has dedicated multimedia transport keys (play/pause, skip back/forward) and web browser keys, the main “extra” keys that I use are volume up/down/mute - and for those you have to use the function key in combination with F keys. I find that pretty inconvenient. The cheap Logitech keyboard also had a dedicated power button that put my PC into standby mode. (I used that all the time.) No such key/button on this keyboard. The real dealbreaker for me, though, is that certain key combinations don’t do what they should. The code editor I use (Notepad++) has several Ctrl+Shift+[key] combos that do various things. For example, Ctrl+Shift+U makes the selected text all upper case. On the Logitech keyboard, that worked fine but on this keyboard it does nothing at all. It could be that mine is defective but since everything else works as it should, I think this is probably a firmware bug. I sent an email to Redragon tech support to ask about this but I got no response. (Another knock against this keyboard - apparently nonexistent tech support.) Other reviews talk about the short sleep timer that turns off the illumination too quickly. That’s true, I agree, but I just tap the Ctrl key at the bottom left corner and it wakes right up. No big deal to me. I’m sure the quick sleep mode is there to increase battery life so it’s probably a valuable feature. I can’t really speak to battery life; I keep a charging cable on my desk for charging my phone and earbuds so I kept the keyboard plugged in all the time. (With that in mind, I’ll probably just look at wired keyboards to replace this one — or go back to the cheap Logitech and find a desk lamp that works for me.) If your needs are fairly basic (i.e. you don’t need to use Ctrl+Shift+[key] combinations) and you’re OK with red, green, or hot pink illumination (or you’re OK with other colors that aren’t so bright), this is probably a good backlit keyboard for the price. Otherwise, keep looking.

> 3 dayThings I liked (I bought this in 2016 I believe so alot of things have changed obviously especially the design) Very very quiet key presses Extra media keys Things I disliked The shape of the keyboard, very large takes up a lot of space and for the price usually targeted towards people on a budget so I wouldnt expect them to have alot of space so personally I would keep the overall design and make it more rectangular and less jagged like most keyboards such as Apex pro In 2016 model this keyboard had choppy rgb Light isnt very bright at all (2016 model)

> 3 dayI like the colors in the background and that they shut off after not using the keyboard for several minutes. I would prefer that the keyboard didn’t have a pointed front for it to be more “ergonomic” which makes it harder for me to use my gel hand/wrist rest. The first one I got had a bug where if I typed an “o” followed by a “p” 75% of the time it would type a “0.” They tried to trouble shoot, but when that didn’t fix the problem, it was replaced it quickly, so no problems.

16-11-2024Ive Had this Keyboard for about 3 months now and its blown 3 other keyboards Ive had out of the water. The keys are Very quiet, which as someone who spends a Large amount of time typing I appreciate. I had tried 2 mechanical keyboards and a Logitech quiet gaming keyboard prior. While mechanical Keyboards feel nice when typing they are inarguably loud. And the Logitech Keyboard didnt have the ability to change the colors and 2 keys didnt work out of the box. This keyboard features a variety of color options and ability to customize. It is Quiet and you still Feel each of the Key Presses with certainty unlike most Quiet keyboards. This Keyboard is a great value at the $30 price range and is Far Superior to the Significantly more expensive Gaming Keyboards or Even just Standard Keyboards. 10/10 would buy again, and would even pay more for it if necessary.
