RK ROYAL KLUDGE S108 Typewriter Style Retro Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Wired with True RGB Backlit Collapsible Wrist Rest 108-Key Blue Switch Round Keycap - Black

Have had this keyboard for about 6 months now and have had no issues. Maybe not the best for gaming but thats to be expected from a typewriter keyboard. The clicks are definitely satisfying and the RGB looks great. Would recommend to a friend or stranger.

I really love the look of this keyboard, the RGB effects are fantastic. The heads of the keys are reflective so you end up with this SUPER colorful keyboard. Theres RGB on the side as well thats great looking. The wrist rest folds up behind the keyboard and the legs that stand the front of the keyboard up go pretty high. The keys arent as clicky or loud as most mechanical keyboards, which you could either like or dislike. I will admit I like louder keyboards, but this is fine. The one thing I dont like, and its kind of big: the keys being the shape of a typewriters means you either miss keys a lot or you hit two keys at once. They really are smaller and circular which leads to mistyping. But thats it. I mistyped a lot to write this review. The look is a 10/10, practical use about 7.5/10. I give it a 8.5/10 overall, but majority of that score is the look. If this were a basic keyboard without rgb and without mechanical keys, Id trash this thing.

This keyboard is more for style art and fun, is perfectly acceptable, but shouldn’t be compared with a typical keyboard. My kid loves it, and doesn’t care at all that you need to be a bit more precise with the smaller keys. Nuff said.

Pretty much got what I expected with this so thats always about as much as can be expected unless you have particularly low expectations of a product. I hoped this would be as good looking in person as in the pics and it definitely is, plus a bunch more. It has downsides but its not as pricey as the big name keyboards and after a couple months its still working fine, plus if you like the style i honestly dont know an alternative that matches it remotely on the modern typewriter sort of look it has - I think maybe once I saw an expensive keyboard made out of retrofitted keyboards, with all the issues their keys had an the less than optimal key layout and slope of the rows putting the top row far above the bottom, and the recreations would lose some cool points to solve some of these issues and supply some useful keys not on a real vintage typewriter. Stuff like that is really for hipster types to look cool and retro without care for the functionality of it as a keyboard for much of anything because computers are lame or something, right? Anyway, besides liking it, some pros and cons: Pros: - Fully functional in all ways described, and as easy as plug and play - All the controls and color / effect / brightness options are available as keyboard commands, with no accompanying software required or complicated set up processes for relatively limited function options (unlike some big, expensive players - looking at you; Corsair (especially), and Logitech. Realistically programs that allow multiple effect layers (like e.g. -!a color / colors, a wave effect, a typing effect like a single color change or ripple / pebble in a pond effect, thats about as much as anyone can process or would look okay). You could add more but it either wouldnt be noticed because colors are similar to those used, or you can add jarring sudden bits of unexpected colors in a way that just diminishes the quality of the existing effect; Multiple constant changes clash as do multiple typing-reactant set ups. Basically, the combo of a set main color / colors / animation and the available addition of something like the ripple effect is plenty of movement and honestly more than what looks good w the style - I have a warm white / yellow and orange type background color and a typing effect in a cooler, brighter / whiter color scheme and it is more than enough, the reaction animation might be excessive to some and with this old style coloration of a warmer (2-3k kelvin) light temp that old lightbulbs were pretty exclusively made in, simple works well. You can do a rainbow and crazy stuff if you like though, and without touching your computer. - You also can independently control the side light - The mechanical feel of the keys is nice as are the satisfying click-clacks it produces, as long as you dont need to be quiet - home office yes, work office probably not unless youre the boss or at least have a private office. - Price is reasonable for quality and capabilities, at least where some keyboards are $150-200 for (seems to me) imperceivable benefits in response time etc.. and the software which can also set macros etc. easily but probably isnt worth it for non-gamers, and I doubt theyre getting this anyway because it cant possibly be the best layout for that. - Seems well made, no issues - Really makes a nice look in, for example, a more traditional office (I moved into a house with an old fashioned wood paneled office and found a large wood / brass antique desk with inlaid green leather top on consignment to buy, and it fits the look perfectly - only the monitors look somewhat out of place. - Not the quickest to type on, the key shape and design arent going to set record WPMs for you, but if you use the number pad more than the keys like me and normally average 120-180 wpm you could drop to 50-100 or so wpm but thats fine for many uses including many work needs. On that.. - Full size number pad, very comfortable and easy to use, trading options as my main vocation, I need it most and its not failed me or even caused a typo. Cons: - Wired - Save the customization keys

Okay, the negatives first! I love this keyboard, though its software is kinda trash. Also, why even have software if you cant do simple things like configure your devices RGB with it? Honestly. It doesnt allow you to customize keys enough or to disable unwanted buttons, either, so I had to use separate software to do all that. My final gripe about this keyboard is that the little metallic rings around the keys can pop off and wont go back on unless you glue them. Only happened with one key for me so far, but now my D looks all naked and sad. Now for the positives! The lights are lovely, though I havent used the custom lighting feature, so dont take my word on that if youre looking for custom patterns! You can dim the lights or brighten them as desired, or turn them off, super easily. I love the volume buttons, the shape of the keys, the glorious clackiness of every keystroke... Its a good keyboard. Just be prepared for the little inconveniences I mentioned and decide if the goods are worth the bads. ♥

Great clicky sound as I type. Only thing I really have to get used to is the keys are a little wonky and sometimes you type other letters. Its just a matter of finger placement but its still a great product.

Just received my keyboard and plugged it in today. So far, it is very enjoyable, the clicky sounds are very satisfying. The color options are fun to play with. Havent had enough time to figure out all of the options that are available, I just picked one that I can use to finish my work day and plan to play with the different options after work. So far...very satisfied with the overall feel of the keyboard while typing which is the most important part. I will follow up with an updated review after a few weeks of use. **Update: Used this keyboard for a couple of days now and I can say I absolutely love it!! The keys are really responsive and the satisfaction of hearing the clicky sound when you type is very enjoyable. I look forward to typing more. The keys are soft to the touch and very easy on the joints of my fingers. Wish I had more things to type on it other than for work. Thoroughly happy with this keyboard. :)

I love my new keyboard

Love the feel, excellent keyboard with many light options. Didnt even know sides were lit and can be custom as well. The side trim though is stupid sharp, it cut my finger.

I really enjoy this keyboard, although it doesnt come with instructions on how to change the settings for the color patterns. I had to google it or look at previous reviews.
