RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 Wired 60% Mechanical Gaming Keyboard Programmable QMK/VIA RGB Backlit 61 Keys Ultra-Compact Hot Swappable Brown Switch Black

Other places would jack up the price on this, but they make incredible and affordable keyboards.I have two - one for my computer at home, and one for the iPad 10th generation that replaced my laptop. I got so fed up with bluetooth keyboards that crap out on battery, so I bought this and a hardshell case for it, and a cheap usb-c hub (so I can use a mouse as well) and it works great!The brown keys are pretty quiet and responsive. I don't know if there is a bluetooth connection option, as I am not bothering to even try, so I cannot speak to any aspect of that side of the experience (if there is one), but it comes with a USB C to USB C cable (that has an attachable USB A head in case your computer/device doesn't use USB C).It's a fantastic keyboard. The keys are spaced like a traditional keyboard, so there's no awkward adjustment phase to worry about.I also own a red key RK61 and I will say: that one has an issue with almost being too-responsive for typing. Gaming? Works great. Typing? There are so many errors and accidental presses that it's hard to manage.So if you're a writer, looking for a quality but cheap keyboard, choose the brown keys.Also, that spacebar makes a really satisfying plunk sound. That's barely worth noting, but still!

Lasts years good sound and nice lights aswell

I have two of these. The newer one is better.I bought a previous version of this keyboard in 2023, a version that was configured either through proprietary RK software or via key combinations. It drove me nuts! I'd fat-finger some keys and BOOM, stuff on the keyboard was changed. And unlike the new version of the RK61, I couldn't program away the awful configuration key combos using RK's software. The reset key combo (Fn-SPACE) got LOTS of use. If RK made all configuration key combos require a press-and-hold timeout like the reset key combo, no problem, but ALL OTHER configuration key combos took hold the millisecond the keys were pressed. That, and the south-of-wonderful RK software that only let me program some of the keys, were deal breakers for me. The keyboard went into a drawer.Fast forward to today: this 2024 keyboard is now configurable via QMK/VIA and it's AMAZING. First course of action when I hooked it up: program away the configuration key combos. No more fat-fingered reconfigs! In every other way, the new RK61 is like the old one, but now that I can actually use the thing without accidentally reconfiguring it, I'm a very happy customer. It's a sturdy, classy, fun keyboard, and I highly recommend it to folks that aren't too picky about their mechanical keyboards. I'm sure there are better boards out there, but come on, at this price point? With these features? This one's a winner (just be very careful that you order the one that specifically says it's programmable with QMK/VIA. Some listings on this site don't say that. Buyer beware!).

Hey online shoppers!My name is Keletzu and I'd like to share with you a quick review for the same product you are looking for.Let's start talking about the price. This keyboard was 51 dollars at the day that I bought it. This is a good price for all the characteristics that this keyboard offers. It also makes it a budget keyboard for those who are looking for one like this.Emphasizing on the materials I can say that they are really good materials. Probably they are not the best but for what we are paying is good enough. They look, and they are very resistant. They are not so fragile, which is something really good. The brightness that the LEDs have are really surprising. They are very notable even in the day, when there are different light resources around it. And at night, they are more than enough, it allows you to see the letters on the keyboard without any effort.After using this keyboard for two months already I realized that it is a good quality-price keyboard. You receive good characteristics for the money that you are paying for. It is also quite small, which allows you to have more free space in your desk. Being a small keyboard can have a remarkable problem for some user, and it is that it doesn't have the numpad keys, the function keys (Del, End, PrtSc) that a normal keyboard has. Another problem that I could find is that it gets dirty easily due the space that there is between the keys.In conclusion, is this keyboard worth it for the price it is sold? Well, there is not a concrete answer. It will depend on every customer. If you want to buy a keyboard that is small, looks cool, has a decent quality, and works more than perfect it is completely worth it. But, if you are looking for a keyboard with high quality materials, with all the keys, and with better characteristics, well… this might not be your ideal keyboard.Let me know if this review was helpful for you! :)

Best keyboard I have found. If you have fat fingers it may not work for you as the keys are smaller than normal. The feel is superior to every other KB I have tried. Love the brown switches. Just a very light click feel.

Awesome little keyboard. I had a glorious 3 keyboard and the rgb went out on me after only a little more then a month. Super mad cause those are a pretty penny, had to beg Amazon to let me return it. This keyboard has MORE rgb settings then you could ever need and they’re much better then glorious’s, you don’t have to go and program ones you want on their software. And you don’t need to download software to use this keyboard. This one is great quality, don’t cost a arm and a leg, and is cute and small not bulky. I was able to add my keycaps and clicky switches I had bought for my 3mk and put them on here too since I still liked how they looked still. 10/10 for me for price and functionality. Oh and still a great reaction time keyboard

Works 3 1/2 years after I got it. Haven’t had any issues with any keys, and I’ve done 0 maintenance on it. Has a bunch of light settings that look great, and it fits perfectly on my desk.

works with xbox one fine and its a great keyboard quality and also sounds great

Dont be a stupid head like me. :')

ممتاز

Im enjoying this keyboar. It is well built and the RGB options always makes your set up looks cool

I got this keyboard so that I could save some space on my mousepad and it works as expected. The brown switches are quiet and are what you would expect from a budget keyboard, and the keys don't wiggle a lot when you move your finger over itOne thing that I had to get used to is the macros that you need to use for a 60% keyboard, for example, changing between different layers to switch between function keys and number keys, but I got used to it in a couple of days.All in all, it is a good product that I like to use when I'm playing games/ not writing or doing school work.
