> 24 hourI havent used a true, clunky mechanical style keyboard since I retire my IBM Pentium computer one hundred years ago tomorrow. The keys are big and feel great. The base is weighted and does not slip when you use it. But there are all the modern conveniences including a little dongle so you can connect wirelessly. A prominent selector button allows easy switching between devices--up to 6. More than an old IBM computer keyboard, this really feels like typing. You get satisfying tactile feedback in the form of crisp clicks as you type. Its big. A thick monster which is proud of its heft and ready to party. Even the colors remind me of a 1959 Ford Fairlane... The tech and quality is all there and the style as well.

> 24 hourJust a disclaimer, this is my first mechanical keyboard. This thing feels solid and types so smoothly, input for gaming is instant. I am using it in wired mode which would be best for gaming but if you want you can use Bluetooth or wireless connectivity for 3 devices. Just turn the knob to the number and it swaps over. The lighting is amazing, especially since I was using a single colored full size board before. Lots of modes and you can change between single colors and rgb. Ill update if I have any issues but so far this is close to perfect. The space bar is louder than the other keys so I might look into an insert to dampen sound but thats it.

> 24 hourI have been using a Mac style thin keyboard for several years, and while it has been good, the feel of the keys was not what I have grown up with. With this mechanical keyboard, I feel a great responsiveness to the keys and how the overall weight of the keyboard does not slide around. The many Bluetooth and 2.4ghz settings allow me to use multi-PCs for work and home use. Overall great product!

> 24 hourAlmost everything feels just right about this keyboard. The dial is well-designed if you expect to be using multiple devices. Typing on this feels very satisfying and makes just the right sound. I also like the RK61 which has the same SkyCyan switches, but they feel even better on this board. RGB lighting and battery life are also fantastic. The only negative I can think of is the 3 buttons on the right side arent quite ideal. Pause seems like a less common key to need there. Id prefer if Home and End were a bit more accessible. I believe you can tweak this by just changing out the keycaps with the included tool, then using software to remap the keys and save the change to firmware. Seems pretty easy to do. If you like the size and want to connect to multiple devices, I highly recommend the RK H81.

> 24 hourThis keyboard has the crisp snap of a good mechanical switch. The switches and key caps are removeable and hot swappable for full customization. It does come with a few extra switches as well. The knob makes selecting between Bluetooth paired devices (up to 3) and the 2.4ghz dongle a snap. It is not a full size keyboard but the layout and key placement is great. The lighting is super customizable so check the instructions on how to set it up to get the most out of this great device. The battery does last about 6 days with heavy gaming use and its super responsive. My son who is a pc gaming addict said its the best keyboard he has ever used and attempted to remove it from my possession. I ultimately may end up ordering him one so he will keep his spacebar clicking hands off mine.

> 24 hourMy original review I stated this board was fantastic. Great stabilizers and switches included. The keycaps are thick and double shot, which is a step up from most dye sub pbt keycaps on Amazon. The wireless dongle connected instantly, and then the issue happened. I was charging the board, and had it Off for wired mode. PC wouldnt recognize it. Windows kept saying the board malfunctioned. I tried troubleshooting the board in windows settings and still nothing. Tried different usb c cables and still nothing. I have a Gamakay board I took the battery out of and only use it wired and Windows never has this cant recognize issue. Had to return it. Otherwise, the board is still solid if you dont have this issue.

> 24 hour(The photo of the board in the review is not the original keycap and switches.) Update: their customer service contacted me then solve my problems with the switches, so if you find anything that is not to your liking I have no doubt they would take care of you as well. the highlight of this board is the solution of multiple device selection, it is one of the better ones on the market right now, the knob is responsive and easy to use. but the lower capacity of the battery will limit your time of use without charging. the material used for the board is decent for its price, the plastic feels high quality and molded properly, and it has the standard sound absorbing sheets plus a nice set of onboard stabilizers, thus even is on the lighter side of things, it still has a good enough sound profile for its price while I would still recommend you change the cap/switch if you plan on using the board as a daily driver. its also very unfriendly to any enthusiast that wants to tinker with the board because the screw holes on the bottom are all behind the rubber feet, I just cant wrap my mind around this design choice, it has no upside but all the downsides! another weird choice is to use the pause key as the last key on R2 --- how many people actually use the pause key nowadays? isnt home or end the better choice? not to mention you never gonna find a keycap set with an R2 pause key. the gasket mounting is a meh, it did provide a bit of wiggle room under higher pressure but I doubt anyone would type with such force, so if you dislike the stiffness of a plate mounting system this could be good for you, but if you looking for “the bounce” this is not it. the RGB and the FN are standard for a pre-build entry board, simple and easy but limited, you cant customize the keys, only choose what is already been set. So my conclusion is: this is a great starting point if you are new to the mechanical keyboard scene and willing to buy better caps and switches plus the need to switch between multiple devices often. but if you already have other mechanical boards and love to tinker with them, there are many better choices.

> 24 hourThis is a great value for the amazing typing experience you get on this keyboard. I use it for gaming and writing. I replaced a name brand G915 board with this one because I was looking for something new. There is little to no flex in the board. It is made of plastic, but the quality is good, and it is thick enough where there isnt any board flex. The color options built in are all nice and easily changeable. This board is hot swappable so you can use different switches if you prefer something other than the default linear actuation it gives you. I highly recommend this board for anyone looking for a well-rounded keyboard that will work fine for gaming and writing. It also comes with a keycap remover which is a nice touch!
