> 3 dayI really like the keyboard. The lighting makes the keys easy to read, and it has a good balance between give when typing and resistance to provide feedback about my keystrokes. I prefer keyboards that provide a bit of a click when I press the keys, and this one does that. I dont know that its really any more a gaming keyboard than many other models, aside from the cool logo and backlit keys, but it gets the job done for the games I plan and is fine for work too. The mouse is not great, though. Its too lightweight and doesnt track as smoothly as my current one, and I didnt feel like figuring out how to change the sensitivity setting within my computer, since its responsiveness is very different from other mice I have used on this machine. Thats not a big deal, as I bought it because I needed a new keyboard. The gaming mouse I already have works fine.

> 3 dayIm a heavy gamer. If this wasn’t an online review I’d be embarrassed to say how much I game. It’s extremely unhealthy and I can’t stand it. With that being said this combo mouse and keyboard hold up phenomenally. My pc is on more than off and the color brightness and durability in this kbm has yet to wither. I’ve had this about a year now. I was thinking to myself “man do I even need to upgrade”. Honestly I don’t know what could change. I mean if you decide to swap this out it’s definitely for a new style because performance wise you wouldn’t go anywhere else. Even the cords hold up well no connection issues at all that’s something I just thought of writing this. Mine is kinda dirty not gonna lie but that has nothing to do with the kbm itself just me being messy. And on top of that it still performs well with no stickiness or detrimental keys. Typing feels good mouse dpi is great what more could you need. I highly recommend

> 3 dayI got this for my office at work. I figured if I’m going to be at my desk all day I may as well have a keyboard and mouse I enjoy using. The mouse is great, adjustable DPI and function buttons are nice. The light on it “breathes” which is fun. Now, the keyboard. It looks nice, the LEDs are cool and have multiple options for how much of a rave you want at your desk. The keyboard is NOT MECHANICAL. No clickity clacks. That’s my fault for not seeing that in the description. The keys seem to absorb finger oils pretty quickly, it’s very noticeable on my spacebar. There are multiple function buttons but I don’t know anyone that actually uses those, but it’s nice to have the option I suppose. Overall this is a nice, inexpensive set up that is better than a “stock” keyboard and mouse you’d get from your company and adds some flair to your desk.

Greater than one weekBought this set primarily for the keyboard to use at work. LOVE the fact the keys are SILENT when typing. If you like a keyboard that makes a loud clicky clacky, this is NOT the keyboard for you. Keys are smooth, medium height and show color pretty well. Really happy with this set.

> 3 dayThis was a very good deal. I got it expecting it to last around 6 months before breaking. I was extremely surprised. So far it is the same as on day one. The keys are a little loud, but I dont mind that. The keys have a good feal to them. Also, the lights are very good quality and are easily customized. Just a simple FN and Insert, Home, Page up, Delete, End < or page down button and you have change in lights. You dont have to download some sketchy website to change the colors. The mouse is good and works well. Gives off and receives light well. It is a really great deal that will last you a long time. It works for both gaming, work, and school use. Very smooth. Also, it is easy to change mouse speed. Just one click of a button and you are done. Once again, I am extremely pleased with this product and would defiantly buy it again.

> 3 dayLove the colors, functionality is perfect. At about a year though, buttons started failing.

> 3 dayBought to make work more fun and then changed it out for our home computer. We have an excellent base “gaming” computer that we play Fortnite on and use for bills, etc. We hooked this up and love it. It’s a very soft and easy press keyboard. No long keystrokes- keys are slim to reduce amount of time it takes to press button and prepare for next button…. And stays quiet when I sneak on to play while kiddos are downstairs! Mouse is great, easy customizable and has ability to add/reduce counter weights if you’re that technical.

> 3 dayIf your child asked for a gaming mouse and keyboard this is pretty good for the price. HOWEVER, I promise this is probably not what theyre looking for. Its a base quality keyboard with no special functions. Its better than a cheap keyboard but if youre looking for real gamer perifs just talk to your kid about what brand they want. I use this keyboard and mouse for work only.

> 3 dayIf you can spare two USB ports, this set is a fantastic bargain. Maybe theres more customization on more expensive gaming keyboards - this is my first step into the field. However, everything works great and I honestly have no complaints. It exceeded my expectations so far (A month or two of use so far). 2020 Update: I liked my first Redragon set enough to buy a second set for at work. The price is still right, and everything still looks and feels great. A few things have changed, though. The keyboard is now RGB backlit rather than plain unlit keys with red LED embellishments. There are FN controls to regulate the breathing (light-dark pulsing) of the keyboard, which is good because I found it distracting. The included instruction booklet lists these key combinations. FN+END pauses and unpauses breathing. FN+PGDN enables and disables the backlight entirely. FN+PGUP rotates through 3 still rainbow lighting arrangements. FN+HOME rotates through 7 monochromatic colors (white, blue, red, green, purple, yellow, and cyan). FN+INS smoothly transitions through the 7 colors over the course of a few seconds, though to my eyes the brightness was uneven. FN+UP and FN+DN scale through 4 levels of brightness, and FN+LEFT and FN+RIGHT scale through 4 speeds of animation. For my money, the backlight will be kept motionless on a monochrome light, but to each their own. All told, very happy with the keyboard. It also features two new sets of buttons above the F-row, which are oddly not backlit. The set to left of center includes links to My Computer, Search, Refresh, Email, Calculator, and Home Page. The keys to the right are media controls for Stop, Last Track, Play/Pause, and Next Track. These are all fine, but unnecessary since the F-row already has FN shortcuts to most of these things, and the topmost row, again, isnt backlit. And we have the mouse. It feels identical to the previous mouse, though it has 4 DPI settings rather than 3. Theres a catch though, which is that the mouse backlight (red only) is set to breathe by default. To disable this, youll need to download software from the Redragon support page. Although my mouse and keyboard both list their parts # as S101-3, the mouse is actually a M601-3 CENTROPHORUS. Youll need to download the drivers for this mouse in order to disable breathing. All the way left on the softwares slider will disable the light fully, and all the way right will leave it permanently backlit (my preference). The other new thing with the mouse is that a LED flashes when you change DPI; its flash speed correlating to how high the DPI is. It seems unnecessary but harmless. All told, my first impression is that the addition of pulsing lights just makes first time setup harder as you need to track down the software for the mouse and learn the keyboard controls. I want to take off a half point for the mouse not having a hardware option to disable the light, but all told Ill keep my rating at a 5 as the backlit keys are actually an improvement once you learn how to freeze them. *****
