RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK918 Wired Mechanical Keyboard, RGB Backlit Gaming Keyboard with Large LED Sorrounding Side Lamp, Full Size 108 Keys Mechanical 100% Anti-Ghosting Computer Keyboard, Red Switch White

Pros: Key caps are nicely done, good matte texture. LEDs are bright (with brightness control) and it just works. Very comfortable, smooth keyboard. Cons: Layout feels a bit cramped on the left side. No bevel around the keys at all, and the base is thick, so you might need a wrist rest. The instructions dont explain how to use the backlight recording function at all. Instructions also were incorrect for some of the Fn key options. Overall: I like it. Could use some improvements, but I like it.

I purchased the keyboard for office work. My organization doesnt allow employees to download software, so I selected this model because I can adjust the colors and brightness manually. I also like the sounds that the keys make as I type - pleasant-sounding soft clicks that wont distract my fellow employees. The side light is a nice feature that compliments the rounded sides of the board, giving it a softer apperance than other mechanical keyboards.

This has become my everyday keyboard. I love the way the keys feel, and the different light settings. Ive been using it for a bit now and havent noticed anything feeling weird or glitching at all. The lights shine as well as the day I turned it on for the first time. The seller says the keys are interchangeable, but I have yet to try that out. I will try to remember to update my review if and when I do that.

Royal Kludge keyboards are not the top of the line, but they are the best Ive used for the price. I have a 65% RK keyboard I keep in my laptop bag and love but wanted something with a 10-key to be a bit more of workhorse in my permanent setup. Since I had enjoyed the travel keyboard, I decided to give this one a try. As someone who has used a lot of gaming peripherals from big name companies, I can say this keyboard gives way better bang for the buck. I notice very little difference in daily use. If you dont need nanosecond responsiveness but want the tactile feel of mechanical keyboard, go with this. It is a little on the clacky side for sound, but I like that. Im more of a clack than a thock person. If you are a person who knows what that means and cares, you might want to look at mod reviews for RK keyboards. They are pretty easy to work on.

I get so many compliments on my keyboard at my work office. It clicks. It clacks. It lights up and inspires me to type more.

my only complaint is that it could be a little brighter but other than that all good

I bought this keyboard in September 2020 since I was working from home. It was a great little keyboard for the price, cool color functions and a wonderful key feel. It was super easy to install, you just plugged it in and the drivers already loaded. Flash forward to February 2021: Now the keyboard has keys that do not work and others that just auto type gibberish with just one key press. I reached out to Amazon and they walked me through some trouble shooting and they were not able to help me. I reached out to the manufacturer and that is were the issues got worse. I sent in a video on what happens with keyboard and they said that unfortunately the three month warranty ( who has a 3 month warranty on an electronic??) had run out but if I was willing to leave a 5 star review they would send me a replacement. I replied I would be happy to give them a 5 star review once I received the product and made sure that it worked. To that they replied that they did not want to answer any more emails on this issue and would only send the product if I did the review first and sent in a screen shot to them of the 5 star review, then I could change it after. They also threw in there that this was their first job and would lose it if I did not do it this way. I This response was unprofessional and unethical. I will not be purchasing from this company again. There was no resolution to this issue.

Though I’m not sure if this is a legit RK keyboard, it still worked out for me. This keyboard is very reliable. Although it’s not hot swap it’s fine because the stabilizers come lubricated like they should. It’s bright all around and even survived my gaming rage moments. The unlubricated switches don’t sound the best but they’re okay and don’t sound irritating. If you need a sturdy mechanical keyboard that’s 100%, this is the perfect one.

Ive had this keyboard for a few months and its so nice, the colors and the brightness are perfect, the clicky-ness is perfect, and no keys have ghosted so far and I type a lottt and I use it to play valorant, apex, etc.... 10/10 Its great for the price. (but buy a little cleaning brush thing because its super easy for like crumbs and pet hairs to collect between the keys)

I absolutely love this thing so far. For the price, the quality far, far exceeds expectations. Ive typed on keyboards for over two decades, from everything to original IBM Model Ms to even typewriters. Ive always preferred tactile & audible feedback. With that being said, I prefer blue switches, which is the model I got. They are legit switches, and the performance is more than amazing. Whether it be office work and emails, or gaming this thing does not disappoint. Pros: Everything about this thing is a Pro - including that the controls for the LEDs are hardware-based on the keyboard itself, not requiring any special software to be installed on the machine. Cons: None. I seriously have no complaints and can see me purchasing more in the future for other workstations!
