Greater than one weekIm still getting used to this board, so I may update this with an extra star in time. So far so good, the switches are wonderful if you want something loud, and I mean LOUD! These are Outemu switches, which are clones of Cherry MX Blues. These are definitely louder than Cherrys, so just be aware. If you want a clicky, tactile switch, these are the ones. Key caps are nice, I think maybe a bit more curve to them could have done them justice, but Im not complaining. No mush with these, youll want an accurate, straight type of depress to get the most out of this key board. May have to raise your key punches a bit more than typical boards where you can sort of roll over to the next key instead of striking with command thats required for accurate strokes with this key board. Again, Im still getting used to it and the tall key caps, so this may be on my part. The RBG choices are plentiful and beautiful, from solid colors to rainbow, and even changing direction, you cant go wrong if you like colors. The key caps themselves light up, as well as a boarder around the keys. Lighting level is adjustable as well. So far, for the price, Im beyond satisfied. I mentioned this in another review, but you can not go wrong with Redragon if you want to avoid paying double, sometimes triple the cost for a good key board. One tier adjustable height with legs, built in cord board side, but theres screws so I assume you could detach the cable from the board if you so choose. F1 through F12 are your media controls if thats what youre looking for. Overall, I recommend this board by far if you want something clicky, tactile, and loud. If you want a similar feel but quieter, take a look at Browns and other switches. Oh and it does not bend, quality is top notch for the price, and Im not saying that as if you should expect a compromise in quality, this is a fine product and worth every dollar.

> 3 dayThe keyboard was very nice just kind of difficult to click all of the keys without your fingers pressing others. It’s slightly loud but not extremely annoying. Overall nice product and worth the money.

> 3 dayIm not a fan of the loud ass clank but I guess thats what happens with mechanical keyboards. Other than that the keyboard is amazing, it looks great, the LEDs are bright as all balls... the feel is nice. There is some rubber padding at the bottom of the keyboard to stop it from moving with a rotateable stand to raise/slant the view of the keyboard. I did find however that if you close the rotating stands, the rubber isnt very strong and tends to move a lot but if you extend the stands, the gibbering at the extended stand is much stronger due to a high rubber pinch causing it to not move nearly at all... But yeah thats about it... you can replace the keys if you want and the clicky sounds is just so loud tho.... Anyway its good. 10/10

> 3 dayReviewed: White w/ RGB lights, blue switches Overall rating: 9/10 (36/40 = 90% recommendation) After doing alot of research, I chose this keyboard based on a few factors that were very important to me: PRICE, QUALITY, FUNCTION, & AESTHETICS. As I was in the market for a keyboard for the purposes of typing, gaming is not a factor in this review. Overall, I think this keyboard delivered pretty well in almost all areas that were key in my purchasing decision. Price: 10/10 Of course I would always want the lowest price possible, but I think given the quality and features of this keyboard, the price is pretty reasonable - especially considering that it feels substantial (overall good build quality, metal construction) and the high number of very customizable lighting effects. At this price, from what I could find, this keyboard simply cant be beat. Quality: 10/10 I am really impressed by how solid this keyboard feels. The base is sturdy, the LEDs are very bright (with beautifully smooth transitions), and the blue switches provide delicious tactile and audible feedback. It makes this keyboard truly a joy to use (yes, I am writing this review with it right now!). The keycaps themselves are a hard plastic that adds to the well-made and solid feeling of the keyboard overall. Function: 7/10 While overall the keyboard is received is perfectly functional, I was ideally looking for one in this same style (white, RGB, mechanical), but with a 10 key number pad built in as well. It just does not exist for the most part. There are other brands that provide the 10 key functionality, but based on those reviews they are either not good quality, or in my search others were out of the price range for what I was willing to spend. Additionally, I use a Mac - while this keyboard is basically compatible, I would love to see some options for an RGB mechanical keyboard that is more made for Mac. This one gets the job done - but it does leave some to be desired as far as dedicated features go. As I stated earlier under quality, the function of the keys is incredibly satisfying to type on. I have also found the functions to choose the color pattern and speed of the LEDs to be straightforward and easy to use. I am particularly impressed by the smooth, beautiful transitions and fades of the built-in patterns. Aesthetics: 9/10 Finally - I was specifically looking for a white mechanical keyboard with RGB functionality. I know that this limited my options substantially right off the bat. I chose this one because the layout is simple and beautiful, the range and possibility of LED color combinations, and for its compact size (if I couldnt find a 10 key option, I figured my next best bet was to choose one that was reasonably compact). The font of the keycaps is not a personal favorite of mine, so I could see myself potentially changing out the keycaps at some point, but that is a low priority for me in the grand scheme. Overall, this keyboard looks great on my desk and I am really pleased with the compact size and the white color. Other than not having a 10 key option, this keyboard was aesthetically almost EXACTLY what I had envisioned. Overall I am very satisfied with this keyboard and I am happy that I chose it. I will update this review should anything change or if I realize I forgot to mention any important aspects. I hope this review has been helpful to you, and thanks for reading!

> 3 daySolid build quality and very customizable. Pretty much everything except for the PCB can be replaced. Blue switches are very clicky, though the larger buttons can feel a little mushy at times. That is perfectly acceptable though, I dont expect high quality stabilizers at this price point. The RGB is very customizable, the included user manual doesnt come close to detailing everything you can do with the lights. Works perfectly fine with my Xbox Series X and PS4 Pro, though the large rubber bit above the USB does not fit into the USB port on the front of the PS4 Pro console, so you have to use the rear port. Not a deal breaker for me, but definitely something to be aware of. Still, you can always swap out the cable if you have the know-how. Overall I am very satisfied with my purchase. I have some minor gripes with the echo from the clicky switches with the metal body, but thats is easily fixed with some foam or felt under the PCB. This is a fantastic entry point into the world of customizable mechanical keyboards!

> 3 dayIf you like the click this keyboards got it quite loudly too actually! Similar to cherry blues. the RGB has some beautiful effects and if you can get the software working it even has programmable macros and custom key colors. That being said the keys arent the brightest things out there but its not so dim theyll struggle to be visible in the daylight. The whites arent really too white however looking a lot more like a pinkish color and some Rainbow modes utilize these giving the keyboard a unique sort of pastel rainbow look yet other ones use a more typical rainbow color scheme. One of my particular favorite modes is where a circle of light will bloop from your keypress every time you press a key and when you type fast it can make for quite the light show. Overall a great value for your money and I would recommend this keyboard... If you dont mind having to go to the Brazilian version of Redragons website to download the official software... which, strangely enough, is in english., but also has to run in compatibility and as an administrator. Summing everything up nice lil keyboard and Im really enjoying the clickity clackity feel, and also a very good value here would highly recommend

> 3 dayFor a budget mechanical keyboard, I think this hits all the high points. No number pad is not a huge negative because I dont normally use one. Very responsive and the RGB is nice and vibrant. Great addition to the family and happy to have picked it up!

Greater than one weekActualmente ya no lo utilizo pues cambie de teclado, pero estuve usando por bastante tiempo, y aún funciona perfectamente. Si eres nuevo en el mundo de los teclados mecánicos, lo recomiendo bastante para empezar, es algo robusto y pesado, pero comodo. A la mayoría de la gente no le gustan los Switches Blue por el ruido que hacen, pero a mí en lo personal me gusta mucho, recuerda el sonido a una maquina de escribir, aún que eso si, tenga en cuenta que si comparte habitación con otra persona, podria ser molesto, además que los Switches Blue son más pesados para accionar, no es mucho, pero luego de un rato podría sentirlo. Igualmente, es buen teclado, y lo recomiendo.
