Redragon K552 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Rainbow LED Backlit Wired with Anti-Dust Proof Switches for Windows PC (Black, 87 Keys Blue Switches)

This keyboard beat my expectation in build quality. My only complaint is the lack of RGB customization options.

I originally bought the version that doesnt light up. It is a nice little keyboard and it lasted 4 years. It would still be working but it suffered from unfortunate liquid damage. I wanted to replace it but but they dont sell the one that doesnt light up. This one is just as good if you turn the lights off. If I needed another keyboard for another workstation, I would order this one again.

Literally 70% of the lights DO NOT WORK, FN+instructions to get lights do not work whatsoever. Furthermore, the thing took less than 3 months with NO GAMING USAGE TO TURN INTO A POS. 3 MONTHS. That is absurd. Save your money, do not buy this piece of junk. Moreover, learning to type with this toilet machine is terrible. Absolutely would recommend this to someone I hate. Honestly Let me repeat DO NOT BUY. EDIT: Company reached out and sent a new one. I’ve been so busy I haven’t even reconnected it and been able to send back the old one. However I am impressed by their customer support. I explained due to health reasons I couldn’t leave. They had it delivered and said it can be sent back in the same bag. This keyboard took getting used to - but I’ve never been able to accurately type, game or do anything so well. It all depends on your ability to adapt from something you’re used to. If the lights fail you are still left with a good keyboard at the end of the day. It simply takes a decent amount of time to get used to. Between the possible speed and keyboard support from the company I’ve changed my rating. It will most likely be a five as I finally hook it up and verify lights don’t instantly crash again. I’d prefer the lights be off - instead of 1/4 still work. Thanks for the customer support. Good luck with the company.

This is so far my favorite keyboard I’ve ever had. My last one was battery powered and the battery exploded inside of it. So I got a wired one. I know reddragon is a good brand so I got that. I love the colors. And I love how it feels. It feels like an old school keyboard. It’s robust. Also, I love it so much I wanna just type random words what ever comes to my mind. I wanna put it in my pillowcase and lay in it so the keys can talk to me everytime I move my head at night.

I really like the keyboard!

This is tiny , well made hard material, and have multi program for the LED lighting moves.

personally i wont pay much more than what this cost for a keyboard and its a real mechanical keyboard so you cant beat it. overall its a very nice keyboard and its very easy to type on, the keys are very easy to press and quite responsive, there not spaced out too far from each other like some key bards i have used, i really like this thing as far as typing on it goes.and using it while playing games, the red lighting looks nice and you can adjust the brightness of the lights, you can see the keys great in the dark, when the brightness is turned down almost all the way all i really see is the numbers on the keys lit up. turn up the brightness more and you see the numbers on the keys lit up and you can see red lights under the keys too. you can turn the lights off if you do not like them and you do it all by pushing buttons on the keyboard, there is no software to install on your computer. you can make so the lights stay on all the time, you can make so they breath or you can turn them off completely. but they are always red, you cant change the color of the lights. i like red so i am fine with that. the keyboard has some weight to it, compared to your average keyboard this thing is heavy, i would guess 5 pounds or so, there is 1, well i guess 2 things i do not like about this keyboard, the usb plug is very long and it sticks out the side of my laptop about 2 and a quarter inches and you also have the wire sticking out of the end of the plug, you do not want to bed the wire to sharply or you could damage the wire so you probably need about 4 or 5 inches of clearance between your laptop and anything setting next to your laptop, as long as your not tight on space its not a big deal the other thing i dont like but all mechanical keyboards do this, the keys click pretty loudly when you type on it, almost sounds like a typewriter lol. some people actually like that, in a way i do but i would prefer it to be quiet but it is a real mechanical keyboard so its not going to be this is a great keyboard if you ask me.

The first obvious pro of this is that its about half the cost of even the cheapest mechanical keyboards. They get the price down in a couple of ways. First of all, the switches, while they work under the same mechanical principle as Cherry Red switches, are their own in-house version. I cant think of a reason why thats a bad thing unless you really think no one else can build keyboard switches like Cherry. These look and sound just like them. I cant say fi theyll last as long since I just got this keyboard today. The other major way is the LEDs. They are not RGB LEDs. Each row has its own color, and what you see in the photos are the only colors each key is capable of. That said, there are different patterns and movements that can be cycled through on the keyboard itself, as well as patterns that light up different keys for different games. They can also be set to constant on. The third way is no ten-key on the side. But lets be real: whens the last time you used that anyway? If youre not an accountant, you wont even miss it. So after telling you whats wrong with it, heres whats great: This keyboard is a joy to type on. Keys are nicely responsive with a pleasant clicking sound. Its full-size for those used to touch typing, and it will take up less space on your desk.

Bought this as my first keyboard, worked absolutely great for the time I used it for. Has blue switches so it is a little loud but as a beginner at the time I loved this. Has amazing responsiveness to inputs. Great RGB lighting, I got the Red backlit but the multi-color one I’ve seen is also a great choice. Works great out the box, just plug and play. 10/10 would recommend!

Great little keyboard if you dont care about having any software to control it in any way. I was expecting the software to work but once installed it only showed some foreign characters and told me it didnt detect the keyboard.
