RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 Wireless 60% Triple Mode BT5.0/2.4G/USB-C Mechanical Keyboard, 61 Keys Bluetooth Mechanical Keyboard, Compact Gaming Keyboard with Software (Hot Swappable Red Switch, White)

Keyboard is very nice. Got it as an inexpensive upgradable keyboard. I cant tell the sound of the keys as well as a keyboard hobbyist but to the untrained ear I think it makes a decently nice noise. LED backlighting is nice and smooth. Overall id recommend.

I have a problem with having to buy smaller gadgets to be able to fit everything on my desk. This is very good quality. Wonderful sounding blue switches. Tons of options for the light patterns and plenty of easy shortcuts to use for it having less physical keys. I was hesitant to use the Bluetooth at first thinking it would have a little more lag than the USB key but I cant feel a difference between the two. Absolutely love this little keyboard.

I’m typing my review on this keyboard. I got the white one with the blue switches (I think they are Kailh Blues) and I’m pretty impressed with this keyboard for the price. Many of the reviews on this products complain about the weird placement of the arrow keys and combined functions of other keys, but in reality that the nature of most 60% keyboards. The wireless connection is solid, although using it without a cord for gaming introduces a good amount of input lag (blues are crap for gaming anyway). There seems to be an older version and an updated one, the updated one has some more ergonomic key combos to activate certain functions, and also have a USB-C cable, which is much preferable to a micro USB. Make sure you guys look at the manual and keep it in case you cant remember some of the unmarked key presses, such as ctrl + enter to disable the arrow keys. Typing on this keyboard is very satisfying, with a nice click and feedback every time you press a key. The keys are well spaced, and they each have enough heft so they can’t be pressed by accident. Someone with larger hands shouldn’t have much trouble using this to type. Also due to its size it is pretty easy to carry around in bag if you are trying to use it as a portable keyboard. I also like the fact that you can pair it to 3 separate devices at once and switch between them very easily. The backlighting is pretty great, especially when typing in the dark. All the other lighting mode other than the standard one are a little too flashy though. I usually just turn it off to save battery, which has been pretty good so far. I’m also using this on a iPad and it paired really easily and has had 0 problems with it so far. Make sure to switch to Mac mode from the Windows mode or vice versa. (Ctrl + A or ctrl + S) The downsides of this keyboard are the key legend which is a little cheesy, as well as how loud it is (that’s the nature of all blue switches though). Also if you listen closely beyond the loud clicking of the keys, there is some metallic pinging that can be heard. It isnt the greatest sounding thing in the world, but is mostly drowned out by the clickiness of the keys. Overall this is a great and rather discrete looking keyboard that is great value. Hopefully reliability is good, will update if anything happens to it. Buy this if you are considering it. EDIT: They are Outemu blues

Ive been used this keyboard little over one year, but a lot of type errors by skipping. The battery often gone fast, so I was using it with power cable most time. I thought that this one is hot swap, but it isnt, so some people like me might not cheated. Good thing is good typing and shape if it works but time to time it is not good by typing over. Thus I move to Keychron K2 and bye to Kg 61. I still using some of their key caps at least. I am not recommend this to anyone. After this review, they send me message saying that mine (year 2020) was not hot swap model, so they clear what was my misunderstanding. and they suggest detail more info for Bluetooth disconnection. So I like to share it. First time when I was experiencing disconnection after a week later of using it because I am not heavy typing person. But after recharging it, it became faster losing quickly perhaps battery quality is not great. I didnt want to charge and back and forth a lot, so after doing few time charge more I give up using wireless. This was less than a few weeks after I purchased it. However difficulty to use this keyboard is the typing response. even after I using cable, response of tying often slower. When it is connected to cable it must work all the time, but it was not and also when the keyboard is connected cable, wireless must not work, but it seems keep on working. is this switch back really functioning right? I am not sure. anyway because they response to my writing I go one more star. new update 11/4/21 the seller is very nice and understand my situation and sending me a new replace without any extra pay. Because of their great effort for the customers satisfaction, at this moment I like to give them 5 stars and I can see the new one is hot swap possible and extra switches and tools comes with it. At this moment this is worth enough company very responsible for their product and I keep watching closely for their new products.

It has ups and downs if you are tight on budget then yeah it gets the job done, Feels good while typing and gaming, and sounds good also the build quality is decent, BUT The wireless option sucks it has a lot of issues like the keys sometimes wont work sometimes it types double, I dont know I expected better to be honest. Anyways It got 3.7 on my scale.

Quick warning, I never used this in bluetooth mode so I dont know how well or poor that works. I have used this very a very limited amount in wireless mode, as I dont care about that sort of thing. It sometimes drops inputs in that mode, but thats because I have my xbox controller and headset that uses the band its on. YMMV. The simple fact is this: For 64 bucks, youre getting a hot-swappable 60% keyboard, with a metal backplate, that has adjustable lighting. Its a steal of a deal. Theres a few catches, though. 1: The lighting is flat. One color. In white, its sky blue-ish. In black, it appears to be yellow from other reviews. If you want RGB, buy the more expensive version. 2: A 60% is kind of difficult to buy new switches for because of the function layer. Unless youve memorized the layout, if you do decide to get better keycaps, you might be lost as to how the Fn+ layout of this keyboard works. Generally the F keys will always be the corresponding number, but if you need the arrow keys, or the pgup/pgdn/del/end/whatever youll need to find keycaps *specifically for this keyboard* to have the function layer be on the board. Theyre most likely out there but still. If thats going to be a deal-breaker for you, buy their TKL which just loses the side number pad. Its only slightly more expensive. Youll still need to deal with the lighting controls in that case but its much more likely youll just remember where those are. 3: The battery is non-removable. If, like me, you use this exclusively in wired mode...well, the spacebar will flash at you, every hour or so, telling you its fully charged. Its annoying but you learn to ignore it. 4: This board does something incredibly nifty thats ruined if you keep the lighting at full blast. When caps lock is on, it tells you by turning the light all the way up. See...the obvious problem here is that it should have dimmed the light instead of brighten it. You literally cant run the lights fully if you want that feature to work, so I dont...cause I do. No keyboard is going to be perfect. For the price, if you want a 60%, get it. If you want a 65%, buy that version. If you want a TKL, buy that version. Hot-swappable at these prices? No brainer.

So I didnt realize when I bought this one that it is blue light LEDs only. Which is fine. I went with blue clicky switches and they are kind of meh. Havent taken the time to lube them but the space bar sounds incredibly hollow and different compared to the rest of the keys, you can really tell when the space is being pressed. I had to use the cable it came with to get my computer to auto-download the drivers. After that it worked with my Glorious coiled cable. Mine is a USB-C all though the ad does still show micro usb in their photos. The RK software does absolutely nothing for me, neither does the firmware download. Its a pain to get it to even download and when it does open it just shows a keyboard with absolutely no options to choose from or anything.. it literally does nothing. Also the shortcuts like (FN+||) and what not for changing to the 17 lighting modes does nothing, neither does the shortcut for brightness. So I am stuck with a mediocre lit blue LEDs with no customization. Overall the keyboard looks nice and itll be probably more of a piece of my display than using it. Would change out the clicky keys, they are a bit much.. Pros are it is cheap, looks decent, can take 3 or 5 pin switches and is hot swappable. I think it could use some new stabilizers though. Overall not horrible but their software and customization is non-exsistent.

Very happy with this. Nice lighting effects, not 100% quality blue keys (compared to my razer blue keys on a different board) but still definitely feel likes blues. Mine has a little bit of key wobble, but it was only $40 so thats normal, and I expect that from cheaper hotswappables. I get a few days out of the wireless, no complaints there. I wouldnt use for gaming personally because I use macros and F keys, but thats a criticism of 60% not this specific board. I use this for portable typing for work home/in the office and I love it. I can fit this in a small bag and I can type for a day without even bringing the cable. Nice!

Nice white and cool blue lights nothing to complain i love it

I like this keyboard however my only issue is that I mess around with coding and if you go from doing that to using your arrow keys maybe this isnt the keyboard for you. I like it but honestly I wish I purchased a different one thats just a little bit bigger so certain keys dont overlap.
