RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 Wireless 60% Triple Mode Mechanical Keyboard, 61 Keys Bluetooth Mechanical Keyboard, Compact Gaming Keyboard with Programmable Software (Hot-Swappable Blue Switch, White)

This keyboard is almost perfect in every way, and the switches are fantastic. The sound quality is excellent (but not quiet). The quality of the materials and the construction are excellent. It hurts because it's so close to greatness. br>br>The issue is that it simply does not work all of the time. When it first stopped working, I had been using the keyboard for about a month and a half. It was still turned on, and it was almost fully charged. However, no keystrokes were being recorded. I put it away for about two months because I couldn't figure out what was wrong or why it happened. I later found it and tried it again (perhaps the first failure was an anomaly?). For a few weeks, everything went swimmingly until it cut out once more. br>br>I have no idea why this happened. Is it possible that a Bluetooth component is malfunctioning? Maybe I pressed a button combination that activated a "feature" that locked the keyboard; whatever the case, I couldn't find anything about it in the manual. I couldn't get the problem to go away, and restarting the computer had no effect. As a result, it falls short of fulfilling the most basic functions of a keuboard, making the build quality and price irrelevant. br>br>This is something you should not buy. br>br>It's better to save your money and buy a more expensive keyboard that actually works, saving you money in the long run.

  My Xbox One S will not connect to this keyboard. br>Perhaps you believe so.
1. Most likely, he simply forgot to turn it on. I tried several times and failed to achieve anythingbr>2. It's likely that his cord is broken. It's not because I switched it and tried four different cords, none of which worked.
3. He plugged it into a port that doesn't work- I tried all three, then tried my other WORKING keyboard in the port, which worked fine. br>br>Tell me what else you think I'm doing wrong, because I'm really stumped:.

This clicky-clacky-clacky-clacky Lots of reviews (and the product description! ), and this clacky little number does a great job of providing a more satisfyingly tactile experience than your standard Bluetooth keyboard. ) suggest that you need to use some strange key combinations to get common characters like question marks, but there's a helpful paragraph in the manual: br>br>"Press FN Shift (shift on the right side of the keyboard), and the Arrow keys become the second function. " Press FN Shift once more to restore arrow key functionality. "br>br>This isn't the best translation, but it does imply that you can toggle the arrow keys with a simple keyboard combination. For the convenience of other potential buyers, I've attached a photo of the entire manual. br>br>And, to be honest, I think it's a great idea. At this price, this keyboard is a steal; however, it isn't the ideal gaming keyboard, and your coworkers will be disappointed. If you bring it to work, your coworkers will murder you, but it's a very useful device that's also a lot of fun to play with on the weekends. It also appears to be fairly simple to customize, with easily swappable keycaps and a whole universe of nerdy doo-dads to choose from. Dads, here's your chance to get the typing experience you've always wanted. If you're trying to be a Pro Gamer or can't type on anything less than actual ivory keys hand-carved by patient artisans in a foreign country, the more expensive models will probably be even better, but for the rest of us, it'll suffice. br>br>Also, the whole thing lights up, giving you the impression that you're in a low-budget Matrix knock-off. This is a cool off-film.

This keyboard appears to have a lot of advantages. With a starting price of forty dollars, this is a good place to start. Mechanical switches, backlighting, and Bluetooth are all included in the five dollar price tag. However, we'll have to wait and see how it performs in the real world. Initial Thoughts: br>br>Initial Thoughts: br> Some of the first things I noticed. First and foremost, it is significantly heavier and more luxurious in appearance than I had anticipated. Second, the leds are much brighter than I had anticipated. Third, the switches are adequate for a keyboard at this price point; they are more tactile than the black alps on my Dell AT101W, but not as smooth as those on my IBM Model F. br> The keycaps are something I noticed but don't like. They're putting a lot of effort into the "gamer" look. Simple black keycaps with a standard font would suffice. I also noticed that the majority of the switch caps were not fully depressed into the stem. It wasn't difficult to fix and only took a few seconds, but with a new keyboard, that shouldn't be an issue. br>br>First typing: br> I believe this is the point at which the keyboard starts to fail. The first thing I noticed is that when you type on it, it wobbles. With a keyboard, this is unforgivable; the wobble makes each keystroke make me feel less confident. By placing eight sticky notes beneath one of the offending feet, I was able to correct the problem. The layout, on the other hand, is horrendous! Because it is a standard ANSI format, reprogramming it would be extremely useful. Here are some of the initial flaws that I noticed. The escape key, for starters, is the primary key in the top left corner. This makes it very difficult to get to the'and '. You must first press the function key to gain access to these keys, after which they will function normally. I'd rather use the function key to get out of a situation. When it comes to function keys, F1-F12 are the most commonly used. There are ten in a line, which is then broken by the led brightness buttons. The numbers F11 and F12 are in the row below. I'm perplexed and disappointed at the same time. First and foremost, why would you want to break up with someone who has the perfect amount of space to do so? Second, why would the led control buttons be placed in the function row? It just doesn't add up. The up arrow, the / key, and the? are all major issues in my opinion. key. The up arrow is the default key. Because you now have to press three different keys to type a question, it's a lot more difficult. That's a blunder that can't be excused. The arrow keys should always be given precedence over the main punctuation. br> Aside from the obscenely bad examples I provided above, the rest of the layout is fairly standard and easy to use. Design ideas: br>br> br> I've already mentioned how much I dislike the keycaps, but that's purely a personal preference. Things that I would have liked to see but would not have been prohibitively expensive to implement. LEDs that indicate when the battery is charging! I'd like to know when I need to charge my keyboard, and turning off the caps lock key when it's not in use is a good idea. However, it detracts from the overall pleasing lighting. br> I like the idea of the case's edges being higher. Many keyboards in this price range don't come with a case that extends all the way to the keycaps' bottoms. I believe that protecting the switches was a wise decision given that this is a keyboard that people may carry around. br> Because the keycap layout is standard, replacing the keycaps should be simple. The spacebar is also a standard size, which isn't always the case on smaller keyboards. There are no issues with the keycaps because they have a standard profile. A couple of complaints about the keycaps. To begin with, there isn't much texture to them. I had the impression that my fingers slid a little too much. However, it is still extremely useful. The sides of the keycaps are also coated in a glossy black plastic. As a result, fingerprints and dirt can easily accumulate on them. However, the gleaming plastic creates a cool gleaming effect. Because the caps' tops aren't glossy, I wouldn't hold this against them; just keep in mind that you'll be cleaning your keyboard more than usual. br>br>Switches: br>br>Indicators: br>br>Indicators: br> Blue Jixian switches are included with the keyboard. They have a satisfying click and a pleasant bump on the surface. The pitch is much higher than my squeaky spring keyboard, but it's also a lot lighter. They're smooth enough for everyday use, in my opinion. If you're an enthusiast, you might not be completely satisfied, but if you're used to rubber domes, you'll be delighted. They are significantly more tactile than my Outemu browns, to the point where my browns feel linear when compared. This was fantastic. I could type without bottoming out on this keyboard, which I couldn't do with my Outemu browns. For the price range, the switch wobble is acceptable. Off-center keypresses do not appear to bind any of the stabilized keys. These switches don't have a problem with keypresses that aren't exactly in the middle. This key switch, in my opinion, is ideal for typing! It felt very similar to my Cherry MX Blues in a Das Keyboard, with the exception that the click sound was higher pitched and the switch wasn't as stable, but it was still very usable. br> I had a few family members, friends, and coworkers try out the keyboard and provide feedback. Mechanical keyboards have been used by some, but not by others. They liked it in general and said it felt and sounded good to them. Bluetooth: br>br>Bluetooth: br>br>Bluetooth: br>br>Bluet br>The first time I tried to set up Bluetooth, I had a lot of trouble. The instructions did not appear to be of any assistance. When I contacted the seller, they told me that to enter Bluetooth mode, I needed to press the FN Tab button. It would have been helpful to have that information in the manual. Pairing became much easier after that, but it took a few attempts to get it right. The first time I tried to pair it with my Samsung S8, it was a nightmare. It appeared that the function layers were being sent instead of the actual letters. It was rendered useless as a result of this. It worked just like a wired connection with my Surface Pro 4. br>br>Summary: br>br> br> I believe this keyboard is a good value at $45 dollars. It accomplishes a great deal of what it sets out to accomplish. The case is well-made, the switches are pleasant to the touch, and Bluetooth connectivity is a big plus. The keymapping, on the other hand, is the worst I've ever seen. I think it's ridiculous that anyone thinks I should type a question mark with a function key on top of my shift! There would be very little to complain about if they changed this or allowed end users to remap the keyboard. The use of glossy plastic on the sides of the keycaps, as well as how the manual should be rewritten to better explain the Bluetooth pairing process, are two nitpicky points I have to make about it. Finally, I would recommend this keyboard if and only if the keymap is changed. I couldn't stand that section of the keyboard.
