> 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.

> 3 dayTo be fair, I write a LOT of positive reviews on products when I come across something worthwhile....especially when the price for it is great. I usually see enough bad reviews on items that are troublesome and dont really want to dogpile on, but I feel this is worth mentioning. I have heavily used SEVERAL keyboards of all varieties in the past 15 years. Everything from my first Razer Lycosa and keyboards by Roccat, Red Dragon, Logitech, and newer mechanical boards from Razer (my previous being a Blackwidow Ultimate RGB). I wanted to do an all-white build not long ago and wanted accessories to match. I wasnt all that enamored with mechanical keyboards anymore and this PC was for game dev and media creation (video/photo editing). I wanted something to match the aesthetic that would also be comfy to type on and quiet. I bought the black version of this EXACT keyboard (without the mouse) several years ago for work. I SWORE by it and bought one for my parents to use at home too. For over 2 years, I used that keyboard doing a 40-hour a week IT job...needless to say the black one got a workout and kept kicking. It still works and is used as a backup for OS installs or when guests come over and need to borrow one. With how much abuse that one took, I figured the exact same model but white should be a no brainer. Compared to how often I used the black one, this thing has had a cushy life to say the least. Since its white and I have a white RGB keyboard mat underneath it, I dont even eat anywhere near this keyboard. At most a cup of coffee that never comes close to it is all it sees. I noticed the ctrl key just stopped working one day and wasnt sure if this was just a random USB issue or something, so re-seating the cable and rebooting the PC was my first go-to....nothing, still needed an unreasonable amount of force to use Left Ctrl for something. I contacted Red Dragon directly with my Amazon order number a couple of days ago and heard nothing back. Yesterday, the K just stopped working altogether. At this point I was almost certain were dealing with a physical defect and not just some odd driver issue, especially since my previous black keyboard was used on Windows 10 and never experienced these issues. I copy/pasted PLENTY on that keyboard with no problems to this day. I thought this may be a fluke and then started reading all of the reviews stating the exact same issue occurring at random times for others, thankfully mine showed up earlier so I think its covered under warranty. Its kind of hard to see how a basic, membrane keyboard with a very basic rgb system (literally just onboard color switching and some basic effects) can screw up this badly THIS fast. I like how cushy the keys feel and its decently quiet compared to my other ones, but good grief this is pretty crazy to start happening so soon. If this is how Red Dragon is making their stuff from now on, I think Ill save up and go to Razer or Logitech again for my keyboards. At least those have stuck around for years and worked without problems for me (across nearly 9 different still-functional keyboards). Im not game on the forced use of software to use Razer stuff, but I already have a Logitech mouse for this build, so Im using theirs and might as well do that anyways...unless I can find something better. Oh well... :(

Greater than one weekIve 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.

> 3 daySoft key strokes, shallow keys, but doesnt feel flimsy or cheap. Texture feels like theres enough to not slip across the keys by accident. Love being able to see in low light what Im trying to do when swapping from the controller to the keyboard during streams and what not. I have the light on the highest setting and its not too bright, just right to see. From the feel, Im assuming Ill get a year out of it since im a heavy typer. Definitely going to buy this again if it gives me a year to be honest. Im sure Ill get longer if I dont have a mishap, but things like enter keys and space bars usually go on anything after a year or so when youre addicted to your pc like I am. Non tacky lighting, too. The colors are vivid. I paired this with the vampire 720rgb by the same company and they sit on a rnairni rgb mouse pad, 31 by 15 inch with the world mapped out. I highly recommend the layout for any streamer starting up because if youre dumb like me, someone tunes in from Angola, youre not sitting there right now going were is there? you just look down and see its in Africa and you get to learn a little about life from afar (just 2 cents for people considering streaming. Great social window for those worried about going out in public these days) Redragon definitely got a happy customer here all around (they didnt have a mouse pad design i wanted, but they have a couple I think really worth looking into!)

> 3 dayDo not buy this keyboard. Spend a bit more money and get one from a reputable source. I have had this keyboard for about a year. The functionality is fine, but the battery is no longer fully charging and the battery life is decreased quite a bit. I emailed the address that is provided for support, since it is supposed to have a one year warranty. Getting the run around and being asked to message someone on Whatsapp. No thank you very much. Buy from a reputable company, unlike I did.

16-11-2024so I have 2 of these keyboards one for work and one for home gaming love them and bought one as a combo deal but came separately. this is the only problem I see is there two dongles, not just one. I would like them to get to the point where you can add more than just one to each dongle like Logitec dose. It takes up ports and doesnt like placing hubs on the port. also if they could sale more replacement dongles that be awsome too. I have a 1/2 keyboard and mouse I cant find the dongle for and dont want to replace full unit

> 3 dayAll in all this is a decent keyboard. It is qu8iet compared to my last one, which is nice considering the gf sleeps in the same room as the computer. The lights are nice and the feel is good. My only complaint about this product is the sleep timer. It kicks in way too fast. If you stop typing for a few seconds your keyboard goes dark. There needs to be a way to increase the time on this. If I was able to control the sleep timer this would have received a 5 star from me.

> 3 dayThe Keyboard has decent weight to it, doesnt seem real cheaply made. Numerous backlit color options makes it fun to work with. Good Price, Good Features for what you pay.

> 3 dayThis keyboard works fine, although feels much cheaper than the old Logitech it replaced. My old keyboard lit up when you touched any part of it, so you could immediately see what you were doing. I really miss that. I assumed this would be the same, but you actually have to press a key. It’s much more annoying than I expected, since I frequently go to my computer when the room is pretty dark. It’s ok, but way overpriced.
