HK GAMING GK61 Mechanical Gaming Keyboard - 61 Keys Multi Color RGB Illuminated LED Backlit Wired Programmable for PC/Mac Gamer Tactile (Gateron Optical Brown)

I updated the software of the keyboard and as a result my keyboard no longer worked. Support didn’t offer any way to fix it other than replacement. After lubing the switches, changing the key caps and stabilizers, and filling the inside with foam, this keyboard sounds and feels great. Perfect for anyone looking for a beginner keyboard to mod. As a stock keyboard, it’s nothing special. Gets the job done. Stock stabilizers are sub par and without lubing the switches it feels like any other mechanical linear switch (a little scratchy but good feel otherwise). The hollow case will amplify the spring sound of your switches so without filling it with foam and lubing your switches it will be audible.

This is my first ever mechanical keyboard and so far I love it so much. The feel of it and the compactness of it as well feels so so good. The one thing that I personally dislike about the keyboard is how difficult it to get the software. I wish that there was a simple software to edit macros or my rgb on it but sadly I can’t really. Other than that though I highly suggest getting this

This keyboard is AMAZING for the money. Good quality Gateron switches of your choice, good solid heavy plastic, cool RGB lighting with preset modes, quality USB-C cable. The software for the RGB is hard to use and figure out, but the keyboard does have plenty of preset lighting modes, so it doesnt really matter all that much. This keyboard is also hot-swappable, so in future you can switch out the key caps, the key switches, and the stabilizers. ALSO, the stabilizers come pre-lubed, which I really only see in higher end brands and keyboards. The keyboard also comes with key cap and switch remover tools which is another bonus. The only thing I can complain about is the key caps are not the best caps, so some of the larger keys (space bar) have a slight stabilization problem. But it is not that distracting and can easily fixed with some custom keycaps (which arent that expensive). Overall, Im really impressed with this!

Good kb for its price. recommended

I think for a $50 dollar keyboard it is amazing. Im on a heavy budget but I also love to game and this keyboard has done everything I want it to do. I would recommend for someone on a budget or on a unlimited budget to get this keyboard. I will say its a small keyboard so dont expect it to be even average size at all. The best thing about it is the weight and the build quality of this keyboard. Also the response time is very impressive and I have no faulty issues when gaming. It picks up every key I push and I was surprised because I find myself accidently bumping keys (I have fat finger). 10/10 for the first keyboard I own.

this is a great affordable hot swap keyboard for anyone trying to get into the stressful, depraved, and wonderful world of customizable mechanical keyboards. when i first got this keyboard the stock switch and keycaps sounded not so great (gateron mech blacks), but after 6 back breaking soul crushing hours i finally got all 61 switches lubed and back into the pcb with new pbt keycaps. i would also recommend modding the stabs on this board because the stock sound is super rattly. all in all though this is a great board and it shipped really fast, 10/10 would recommend.

Keyboard is by itself is perfect, but the software used to update it is awful. I have no issues with keyboard itself, mines came in perfectly intact with every button working and clicking very nicely from the red gateron switches. The color profiles had plenty of options and I settled for pink lighting to accompany the pink theme my keyboard had. Then it came to updating the software... my keyboard shut off and became unresponsive with every attempt I tried. So in turn i stopped using it. I used the latest the version from their U.S website, to note. Every other experience with this keyboard has been great however, and while I wish I could get more use out of its software, the end result is still the same. Very good keyboard for its price, just skip the software entirely in my opinion.

The RGB is amazing and very bright, and the size is perfect for gamming and really the only bad thing is that if you want to do any moding (like a tape mod) you cant do to much because its plastic and it will warp.

One thing I dont like bout the keyboard is how some of the sounds echos through and you can hear some hard key presses which I do a lot but thats just me being picky. The optical red switches are still very fast but I made a small buyers mistake and didnt buy the yellow switches but I can add them later on. This is definitely a great budget option for when you dont have a $100+ to spend on a Apex TKL or a Razer Huntsman Mini. I already see myself getting faster gameplay after only a month in.

This is the first 60% keyboard I ever had, therefore, I cant compare it to a Good one. That being said, I think it works great! I absolutely love it. I only wish it had software to control the LED in your computer, maybe be able to link it to Razer/Mystic light, etc.. You still have control of the LEDs and they work great! It is more of a preference for me.
