RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 Wired 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard RGB Backlit Ultra-Compact Hot-Swappable Red Switch White

The board is a very good option if you want to start to get into the custom keyboard hobby, as it is hot-swappable and doesnt require you to buy a soldering tool. The board is also a good option as a stock board. I would highly recommend trying this board out!

This last minute birthday gift was just what the grandson wanted!

I have been wanting a 60% keyboard for a very long time and was debating between the Royal Kludge and the Anne Pro. Im so happy I went with the Royal Kludge Rk61 because not only was it on the cheaper end, but its such a great keyboard in general! The RBGs are amazing, so many light options and you can make it as bright or as dim as you want. I got it with the blue switches, and while its on the louder side, its not bad sounding at all. I mainly use it for work, so I havent tested it out for gaming, but theres no lag at all and works very smoothly. Only downside is that there isnt any bluetooth option, but its not that big of a deal in the end. Overall, if you are looking for a 60% keyboard I say get this. Its a great mechanical keyboard that wont break the bank, its slanted for people who have sensitive wrists like me, and runs super smooth!

im not really a fan of how u have to get to certain buttons but then again, its only 60% of a normal keyboard. Another problem i had was downloading the software. other then that, its great

No lo he probado pero se ve de buena calidad :v

It is great

For the price I say this is awesome! I love the sounds from typing and its perfect!

Edit: So shortly after my review they reached out to me offering me a replacement keyboard and a bunch of help they didnt even have to do and it was extremely appreciated. Their customer support is on point! The more time I spend with the RK61 the more I enjoy it. The software issues have gone away and the keyboard works flawlessly. Ive also updated the review with pictures. Im using Akko Crystal Clear switches which make the RGB brighter and it looks perfect, these switches have a bit more thock than the brown switches I chose for the RK61. The stock brown switches do sound great too. I plan on getting blank keycaps, a custom spacebar and call it the day. People ask how I type so fast, I just say its because Im using the RK61 and it feels amazing to type with. So I was extremely displeased with this purchase when I originally received the RK61 which Ill explain in this review. After a few more days with this keyboard, it has actually grown on me. Ill separate this review in 2 sections, pros and cons. Pros: R61 is a great beginner keyboard for those getting into mechanical keyboards such as myself due to its mod potential and price. I purchased the version with brown tactile switches which I eventually swapped out to the akko crystal clear tactile 5 pin switches (makes the RGB appear brighter too). The original switches and keycaps feel amazing stock and sound fantastic. The board itself doesnt feel too heavy nor too light but just sturdy enough for its size that gives it a great satisfying feel. 60% leaves a lot of space on my desk which I need for gaming and also allows me enough space to get a regular sized keyboard if I ever choose to for my set up. I do plan on doing more mods later down the line such as bandaid mod, lubing, styrofoam, etc. when I feel more comfortable approaching those mods. Cons: The worst part of this keyboard is the software. The software actually doesnt work at all and shows a no matching device found with no fix. There are You Tube videos that provide links to different softwares that work with the RK61 {which do feel sketchy} but work nonetheless. Another big drawback are they fn functions short cuts. For example it took me a couple hours to realize that I have to use the right shift to type the ? which is extremely counter intuitive. The delete function requires pressing 3 separate keys which is also counter intuitive and there isnt any way to change this in the softwares Ive mentioned in this segment. The last huge drawback for me is that sometimes when I start my PC and start doing what ever Im doing, I notice the keyboard isnt working properly or is glitched out where the keys arent activating or the secondary keys are activating without me pressing fn or shift. The only fix for this is to reset they keyboard by pressing and holding fn + spacebar for 5 seconds. All of this information I had to research myself.. Lastly, the RGB lights arent bright at all but changing to the akko crystal clear switches, made the RGB appear more brighter. I may or may not swap to pudding keycaps to make the RK61 brighter. For $40 (sale and $4 coupon) this couldve been slightly better in terms of quality, especially for how much YouTubers hype up this keyboard. However after giving this keyboard a chance Ive started enjoying the RK61. I do suggest trying out some mods for the RK61 and there are ways to make the RGB brighter if that is a deciding factor for you. Im rating this 3 stars because the hardware and price is great but the software and glitches definitely bring down the quality of the RK61.

He likes it so far.

Was super happy with the product but when I opened it I knew something was up. It didnt have a new smell to it. Furthermore, I noticed some weird black markings on the keyboard, some of it doesnt show on the camera but I was able to wipe those away with just water. However, as you can see with the backspace key and the /? key it is very noticeable also what I was saying earlier you cant see from a difference, on the left of the /? you can see the tainted area. I was unable to wipe the /? key and backspace keys off. I am disappointed for paying for a brand new ~$50 keyboard and not receiving it as such. I left seller feedback and didnt get a reply. Unsatisfied. Also, its kind of annoying to have to press twice FN + SHIFT just to get to the question mark from a mac point of view. Updated review 12/01/2022: customer support Jane reached out to me, asking me what was wrong and proof...again...of what was wrong with the product. After that everything was a breeze and very friendly customer service experience. Bumping up stars for timely responses and for the replacement keyboard being shipped very soon. She also checked in to make sure I received and was satisfied with the replacement!
