> 3 dayThis is exactly what I wanted. The backlighting is very nice, the keys have the right amount of resistance and arent excessively noisy or sticky, and it seems to be an overall high quality keyboard. I do wish that the FN key and Win key were switched on the keyboard, but thats about as minor as a complaint can get. I dont have any issues at this point, but if anything comes up Ill be sure to update this review.

> 3 dayIve had this keyboard for over 2 years now and it still works perfectly. Ive used more expensive mechanical keyboards in the past but this keyboard is my favorite. The enter key is tall and not wide, and the travel of the keys is different from mechanical keyboards. Both of these things take a month or two to get used to but after that, its smooth sailing. Now for a more in-depth review. PROS: -Build quality This keyboard has no flex while pressing down on it and very little flex if you twist it. None of the keys have come off and it works like new over 2 years later. -Features The keyboard has two feet you can flip up in the back to have it at an angle, which is more comfortable for some people. The lighting controls allow you to control the brightness, color, speed, and mode of the RGB lighting. The rubber feet on the underside are also very grippy and keep them from sliding. -Comfort The wrist wrest is something I cant imagine living without anymore. I never used one until now but I really like it. It keeps my wrists comfortable while typing or gaming, and just being plastic is much better than having none at all. This keyboard isnt particularly ergonomic as the keys arent indented or anything but it is very comfy nonetheless. -Looks The amount of lighting customization makes this keyboard fit well into most setups. The clean shape of the keyboard makes it unique while not being ugly or outlandish. The size of the keyboard makes it look aggressive and sturdy. Plus, the Redragon logo looks cool in my opinion. -Price I bought this keyboard for about 21 dollars. Usually, for this price, youd get a basic keyboard with rainbow lighting which qualifies it as a gaming keyboard. But as mentioned above, it has good features and build quality which makes it well worth the price. -Durable This keyboard, as mentioned earlier, has been working perfectly for over 2 years. Nothing has broken, the cable is sturdy and braided well, and with cleaning, it could be passed as brand new. -Performance This keyboard works just as well as any other keyboard more expensive than itself while gaming. The keys dont get stuck and there is no delay to when the keys are pressed. You press the key down and it engages, just like that. Plus the rubber feet keep it from moving while gaming. CONS -Is dirtied easily The slightly matte finish makes the keyboard look great when its clean, which is not often because it collects oils and other fluids from your hands well. My hands are above-average sweaty, but this is just how the keyboard is. Also, things like dust, cat hair, and crumbs can get stuck in the keys and are hard to get out. -Slightly weird layout As mentioned at the top, the enter key is tall instead of wide, which takes a little bit of time to get used to. Also, the keys are a bit hard to press and feel different (not worse) than most mechanical keyboards. Both of these things took me about a month to get used to but after this, it feels just fine.

> 3 dayNot the fanciest gaming keyboard, but it will get you by until you have money for a expensive one.

Greater than one weekSo cute! I mean, come on its really cheap so you get what you pay for, but that being said its a nice little keyboard. Pretty comfortable to type at and very quiet. I would definitely recommend it.

> 3 dayLemme just say this first off, pretty nice keyboard for the amount youre spending here, but if you have some more cash I recommend you opt for something more. Pros: Nice design, Keys are well spaced and the backlight is great at the amount of customization it offers with options to cycle through colors or have it locked to one. Keys have a soft texture on top and let a nice amount of light through. Very quiet to Silent, a Pro if youre looking for that, I was not. Cons: The additional buttons on the top are borderline useless, the power button scares me as it turns my computer right off without any sort of prompt, useful if youre looking for that functionality, Im personally not. If I were to design this Keyboard the multimedia buttons would be up there instead of being mapped to FN + F1-F12 as Id much rather have a dedicated button for changing volume then I would moving forward and back between pages on my browser. Id also swap the FN key and the Windows Key around as 1 is in the clearly more superior place even though its a worse key, theres a button combo to disable the windows key so it doesnt interfere with gaming but if those 2 buttons were swapped around that wouldnt be a problem at all. The Logo at the top does not change color with everything else, small pet peeve but it does disturb the aesthetics of the keyboard. The space bar is notably more squishy then all other keys with almost no audible click when pressed elminating any kind of satisfaction you could get from pressing it at the benefit of making the keyboard silent, bummer for me, winner for others. Final Thoughts: A lot of the issues mentioned here may be more of a case of personal preference then anything, for all I know that power button may be a godsend for someone out there, but for me personally speaking as a gamer this Keyboard struggles a lot in both convenience and practical uses, admittedly most of the issues I mentioned could be solved with the use a 3rd party program to remap the keys, but more preferably if RedDragon themselves included some software to reprogram the keys. The only major issue here Id say thats unacceptable is how very squishy the Spacebar is and how moderately squishy everything else is only giving a click if pushed down moderately hard and in the case of the spacebar no click at all removing a lot of the tactile feedback thats so crucial in the overall feel, a deal breaker for some, but for the amount I spent on it I cant really complain.

> 3 dayGreat keyboard - good feel and the lights look great. After a friend saw and used it, he liked it so much he ordered one for himself! Only con is lack of dedicated media buttons, but not a deal breaker for me.

> 3 dayI ordered this keyboard on behalf of a customer for a his first gaming computer setup, he was on a budget so his choices where limited. I found this and I had high hopes. The first package came but the r t f g v and c keys all failed to register any inputs, which crippled the initial setup for windows. I returned the keyboard for a new one, knowing that lemons happen in computer hardware, and the customer wasnt bothered by it too much. I got my replacement the night before writing and only just got the chance to test it. The entire right home row fails to register on this one.( j k l ;) I am extremely disappointed in Redragon, since Ive been looking for a solid budget brand for some time now; I guess my search continues...

> 3 dayIt’s a good gaming board and the stroke length is good and it has a softer click to it. Unfortunately one of my buttons stopped working after a few months.

> 3 dayA bit flimsy by works for gaming and typing. The keyboard is also very bulky.
