[@voidmind]

It's good that mechanical keyboard options are getting cheaper / commoditized. None of the tech that make them is particularly expensive to make, especially at scale. I would say the reason this scale is possible is thanks to channels like this one, that popularize mechanical keyboards with a lot more people that "keyboard hobbyists". Before I knew of all these options, I thought the only option to get a decent keyboard with a knob was to spend $200 on a "high end" Logitech keyboard.

[@Yasin5791-d7u]

Now u have a new signature outfit. It was white now it’s black.

[@antonius254]

you've been saved from the logitech scam

[@FlyingHat]

A "high end Logitech" keyboard 😭😭😭

[@lloritoovidexequield.8609]

I know why they used OEM keycaps, because their PCB is north-facing. If RK just went for a south-facing PCB, they could've gone for a double shot PBT cherry keycap set for this keyboard. They were so close to perfection this time.

[@michaelthompson9798]

I had the RK84 which was a brilliant kb as it featured all the mentioned features here, but came in at about $110AUD including local taxes 10% at the time ($70USD roughly). I ended up giving it on to another family member after I upgraded to a new Wooting kb and the RK84 is still going strong and battery still going very well (gets light to moderate use wirelessly).

[@casseusfloyd4880]

How is the dongle? There are a lot of opinons regarding it.

[@abhinavjha33]

@@casseusfloyd4880 I purchased it a few weeks back and use it with my laptop. I mostly used bluetooth but have also tried the wifi dongle. It worked fine with no lag or missed keypress. My laptop is usually very close to keyboard, I have no idea how it will behave with PC when there is more gap between dongle and keyboard...

im using it to type this comment right now and there are no regrets on buying this keyboard, its so good!

I have had an RK with cloned topre switches for like 8 years, good to see them still cranking out decent stuff.

[@GRhightech]

Great review, I just bought a RK M75 during black Friday, this is my first Custom Keyboard, and not many choice in France if your want ISO FR, I choose RK red switches version, and I just bought your favorite budget Gateron Milky Yellow Pro. I can't wait testing them. I didn't do anything else excet a little tapemod under the spacebar keycap to get more thock/deep sound. Seeing all the review this M75 seems to be a good budget choice for a gasket mount well dampening KB. I confirm this is not PBT keycap but double shot ABS one

[@pzt]

if you want you can review the new fantech keyboards they are also budget friendly and looks sooo professional

[@redtorres8667]

This keyboard is at $72 in my country with shipping included. Gonna wait for a few months might go even lower.

[@radbradmtb6915]

As a note- The new version comes with a south facing PCB, 5 pin cherry style switches, and decently thick double shot PBT keycaps! For $80 this thing is a beast!

[@gangstaelegantproductions2780]

what else is good for that price?

[@hazeld3703]

Where can I find the new version?

[@AlanDike]

I'm sitting here on my RK61 that I've had for 3 or 4 years now. This one predates the hotswap versions, and it's only dual mode connectivity. I've upgraded the switches to Gateron K9 pros (wont do that again, I'll buy another if I want to change out the switches.. oof, desoldering sucks with hand pumps). Honestly.. I like the RK line so much I've bought a second (hotswap and tri-mode, running outemu honey peaches). I dont think I have any complaints about their build quality so to speak.. they last well enough in my experience. They're not the highest quality when it comes to manufacturing tolerances and board work, but they do that one very important thing.. they work.

[@SuperTechTrics-official]

ordered myself 1 of these keyboards hoping i can configure rgb areas so i can configure it to match the colors of the keys

[@neeneenoo]

This board is a bang for your buck, especially for people who dont know how to mod, because its aleady amazing out the box

[@bikehigh]

I just chose the EpoMaker TH80 SE over this keyboard, within the last two weeks. I wanted to try the Budgerigar switches though, so the TH80 SE won out. Those switches are terrific for feel, but they block so much light in multiple ways that they really don't work with the north facing LEDs. Got some Kailh Speed Coppers swapped in, and though they aren't as great as the Budgerigar for feel, they are good, and they really work great for the north facing rgb. They'll do for till I find something else I want to try.

[@thenewbb]

I’m also between the th80 and this idk which to get tho

[@CROOKS326]

Bought their RK H81 model (Skycyan Switch) 3 weeks ago and been loving it so far. Same wireless features without the mini screen. First budget KB I didn't immediately change the keycaps on. Love being able to switch between my desktop, laptop, Steam Deck and ROG Ally with the turn of a knob.

[@mikechang89]

Is the skycyan switches similar to gateron linear switches?

[@ignacio3714]

do you have any video using those switches? is she using these switches? she literally said brown and blue like 0 effort on finding it out.. wtf

[@thegxbster]

request: in depth explanation of the rk h81 : D

[@bestechYtBotBH]

of course, the price goes up 30 dollars after this video was launched because people see the value in your videos and this keyboard and decide you deserve more respect

[@SwitchandClickOfficial]

Nash haha prime day should be cheaper soon

[@seraphuziel]

Thank you. helped me decide to get one, using your link. jumping from my g910 to this.

[@VaultTecAi]

Bought an rk98 recently and love it. It’s my first hotswap keyboard and first one i got new keycaps for. I got into pc because I love piecing things together that goes for keyboards now its kind of a new addiction haven’t had this one for a month and Im already looking to build another one

[@Sol1dYT]

I have the m75 and I modded it with the atoxk oil kings, it sounds really good and if u are going to mod it you have the choice

[@steaksoldier]

bought my partner this same keyboard so they can match better with my keychron V1 while still keeping the white overall color they want. Zero complaints so far.

[@Laughingcoyote1213]

I love how it looks! Too bad I'm not in the market for a new keyboard...😔

[@backslash_iii]

Niche advice - but if you have a Micro Center near you, and you're looking for a budget keyboard: walk through their keyboard aisle every once in a while. I picked up a glorious GMMK Fullsize for 80 bucks. Slapped some Pandas and some nice keycaps in and ended up with a preem setup for less than 200$.

[@1kld5mnb]

I just got this keyboard with the $30 off coupon and I like it A LOT. I have used two "gamer" wireless mechanical boards in the past and this is much nicer in every way. It looks nicer, sounds and feels better, it is weightier and more solid feeling, and the screen and knob makes pairing super easy compared to memorizing weird key combos. This did cost like double what I paid for my other boards but it was worth it.

[@UchihaNarutoFTW]

Which switches did you buy? Red, Silver or Brown? And do you know which switches is shown in the video?

[@1kld5mnb]

@@UchihaNarutoFTW I got brown but have since switched them out for akko cream blues (I like tactiles). I think these are silver in the video.

[@UchihaNarutoFTW]

@@1kld5mnb ok thanks for the reply, I have one silly question, Why would people spend like 100 dollars on a keyboard and proceed to change the switches? Those switches were prelubed and sounded like something of good quality, then why should we change them? I know the typing feel and sound varies, but is there any other reason to it?Why would people

[@1kld5mnb]

@@UchihaNarutoFTW I just wanted to try the akko cream blues and ended up liking them lol, that's basically it. I mean that's why you buy a hot swap board right? If I ever want to put the browns back in I have them sitting around in a bag and can do it

[@bobmcbob4399]

I'd put on some semi transparent caps and use the RGB as "functional RGB". If this supports QMK, this would be great for key layers which activate different colour sets for key layers when activated as a visual cue for you to know what layer is active and what key does what in that layer.

[@_phantom_4]

Great review, have you considered reviewing the akko 5075s keyboard or kit?

[@skoropian9112]

Can you please do a video on the Leobog Hi75? Appreciate the content!

Girl I love your vids but “budget” for me is at least under $50😂

[@victora.sifuentes9262]

Yea but its a custom so we cant ask for much lower tan 100 sadly 😑😅

[@ArzenikDev]

If your in us then $50 is your budget $50 for us is like $20 in us cause I'm Aus so I have to have a "higher" budget

[@XtopherMartin]

Sadly, you're not even getting switches for that.

[@MangoTangoFox]

Highly highly recommend a GMK67 for about 30-40. 70 Switches run about 13 (NEW outemus, gat milky pros, MMDs, etc). And for caps it depends on what you want but there are many great options from 10-25. Any pre-built in this range is not going to be anywhere close to as nice, at least currently. Actually Royal Kludges new line R75/R98 (R, not RK) seems incredible, they're huge steps beyond all their previous boards, but they aren't out in the US yet and we don't quite know the pricing.

[@ItsaNoah]

Budget in the keeb world is 200 and under maybe your looking for the wrong price range under 50 is the broke keeb range

[@kaibaborp396]

I could not find a SINGLE comment on the internet about the OLED screen for this board; why on EARTH is it so prone to scratches? Like, it's comedically sensitive to where at first when I got mine delivered, I thought the scratches were just on the outer plastic but after removing in, they were deeply embedded on the screen itself. I tried rubbing it off with a microfiber cloth and that left EVEN MORE SCRATCHES. I got a free exchange for a new board, but like am I missing something here? Has literally no one had this issue but me cause being able to deep cut it with a glance of a fingernail is wildddd. otherwise 10/10 board I'm happy with everything else

[@andrewy1983]

I brought this over 11/11 sales Absolutely love it. Solid, clicky, quality feel and love the little screen.

[@thewend404]

Was only able to get mine to work cos of your video! Thank you for making this video! For some reason I did not get an English manual 😢 Any chance you could post the English manual that you got with yours? 😅I checked the RK website and they only have the R75 or the M75 manuals. Huge appreciation from a longtime follower!

[@64fanatic]

It seems to have a permanent coupon on Amazon, still 40 CAD off today.

[@LiamAnthony_]

The only thing that would make me hesitate about this, is that with the blue knob, it might make getting alternate keycaps a little awkward if they don't mesh well.

[@uscmhudson5504]

You could probably pull it right off and replace it with another rotary knob.

[@radbradmtb6915]

The new version comes in multiple colorways, has south facing PCB, 5 pin switches and ds pbt keycaps!

[@LiamAnthony_]

@@radbradmtb6915 Nice! Unfortunately I did end up buying the old M75 so I'm not really in the market right now, lol.

[@TheModeRed]

Have you tried the unspecified "new version" M75 with pre-lubed Viridian switches??? It has PBT keycaps, south-facing LEDs, and better foam. With the coupon it's cheaper than the original M75!

[@alcocer7189]

I have a huntsman mini with optical purple switches. I really enjoy the tactile click and both in sound and feel of the key. I want to build a keyboard possibly with this frame and am looking for a key with a similar feel and click

[@delsdelsdels]

Hello, between this keyboard and the tecware phantom is it kinds the same in terms of good “thock” sound and typing feel? Cause if it is near as good but half the price i would rather take the cheaper one. Thank you for your time

[@tsushae]

Got mine recently for 60$, God yes this is low but what I'm getting feels really expensive. Even with stock build they're really nice. I was skeptical because of the original price was over my budget but to my surprise there's sale every now and then. After spending hours looking at reviews online, I decided to have one myself. Rather than buying "fancy" keyboards that are just gasket alone costs 120$, a single m75 pre built on sale is on top very easily. Honestly glad I choose this, imagine what proper modding can achieve with this abomination. Love the video btw!

[@rafacrack8]

Where did you buy It?

[@joetoney184]

It's currently $79.99 on amazon. seems like quite a deal for the feature set.

[@Ronthedon485]

The BEST budget keyb is an epomaker TH80 with gateron pro black or yellow

I dont know why is the pricing is so high on amazon, but I got mine for only $55 here in ph.

[@LewysC]

Loving the Notion table!! Very useful

[@Ayyem93]

I've been interested in quite a few RK boards recently but I've been hesitant because every model I've looked at have had a number of negative reviews stating that the LEDs die pretty quickly(sometimes in a few days) and very quickly having unresponsive or overresponsive(double and triple typing) keys Being new to mechanical keyboard stuff am I paranoid to be put off by stuff like this?

[@thenewbb]

Can’t decide on the switch helppppp (160 aud reds and brown and silvers are 130 aud)

[@FynnjeminFranklin]

I bought one in 2024 and it seems like they swapped to South Facing Facing LEDs. Atleast the one I have (ordered from Amazon) has South Facing ones. Nice Improvement imo

[@lemueljadeortizambanloc5869]

I'm so sad that the silver switches are not available in my country instead they offer their yellow switches. But nonetheless, I got one for around 50 dollars. For that price, that is unbeatable for my opinion

[@josher14]

nice but no black case option :O and the switches are their brown option from the amazon page

[@sensenglng]

did you ever saw a similar keyboard with black version?

[@rubikgamer2373]

I have the rk61 too but I decided I needed a tkl 75% keyboard kind of thing that had more variety so I bought the m75, haven't received it yet but I have good expectations about it. The rk61 surprised me so much in how it just lasts as a good buget keyboard with no need of mods (at least not for me) it's a really good keyboard its lasted me a long time and its still fine but its size is not for me. thanks for the review!
