Redragon K503 Keyboard Review (RGB)

[@danielhuang7398]

This video totally helped me on the LED part! Now I have a cool cheap keyboard thanks to @Matt's Tech & Vlogs !!!!

[@banejovan5858]

You convinced me, to buy one. I've just returned from the store and I'm exploring the keyboard. Me and my brother are very pleased with it. Thanks for video and explanation. "Space bar" reacts wherever you press it! I like that, very much. And like you said-it's very quiet.

[@Taymoorismail]

This is one of few reviews of this keyboard that i found that is very detailed. Good job.

[@bookofeli8458]

thank you so much for this review, helped me figure out a lot more about my keyboard

[@sandramejia4559]

Omg you helped me so much I couldn't find out how to change the colors lol

[@muhammad9366]

Same lol

[@dee12yearsago88]

Bought mine because of you. Thank you so much for the review!

[@eshalplayz9105]

I bought bloody j95 and this keyboard both make perfect combo

[@banejovan5858]

I wanted to do the same, but instead of Bloody J95, I bought Redragon Cobra Chroma, because of the same logo 😀. It's a good combination, too. Mouse and keyboard, from the same brand. Many people suggested me to get J95 so, It's a good choice. Maybe, for next setup. I like it's ergonomy.

I got a keyboard from Redragon in the past that only gave me a solid red; I’m glad this one is RGB

[@piotrpanasz829]

Thanks man for this review :) It made me buy it and I love this keyboard :)

[@dphcmmd3641]

i got this keyboard from a bundle and i am loving it.

[@hemantgurung5217]

the moment you showed up that beautiful shining keyboard "oh Fuck!"

[@zapniles8609]

Oh, man, I wish my keyboard worked the way you showed - something is definitely wrong with mine. For instance, holding down the FN button and hitting the HOME button multiple times does nothing -- I still get only a variety of colors breathing through the cycle. Once I finally got the breathing to stop, but then the only color I could get was white and the HOME key didn't do anything again, just kept the white color. Frustrating as all heck. Has anyone else run across this dilemma where the keys don't function the way videos such as this one demonstrate? The manufacturer's website was simply worthless.

[@deepindrahere]

Check at the bios , at the start of your computer if fn or option key is disabled. Solved an issue of some fn combo keys not working

[@ra99ed]

i like this one . my son (10) wanted a new LED keyboard and we saw this on takealot . he didnt want to wait for it hahaha. so we drove to our pc store and for time being got him an astrumkg200 (did a lil unboxing of it haha) which will be his backup when we get the red dragon

[@EliasGonzales]

Great review! it help me a lot to know my new keyboard

[@GameDiagram]

I have a mechanical, but am getting this as a replacement. I just don't like the sound of the spring firing up when pressing the keys to hard, which I always do.

Tbh its not such a bad keyboard altho i got 1 problem with it,like left shift tends to sink when you are holding it(like sometimes it feels weird like it has bad reaction on it,u have to press it quite hard in order for it to react) which is quite annoying to be honest,my friend as well has the same problem so i guess thats the way they were made by default :/

[@cosmintuchi]

Thank you for this video review

[@whatislife3645]

Hahah I think I understand the persons that descrive themselves as "RGB bitches" or something like that (sorry I don't speak english) I see that lights blinking like a christmas tree and its like "i want it, i need it, gimme it right now... I WANT IT" haha

[@galitprotip]

Same!! XD

[@quintenlowe4913]

Hi I got myself this keyboard , Only downfall I have is after shut down and restart the light switches back to default rainbow flash. Can I change that function?

[@MattieKB]

It depends on what keyboard you have. Some keyboards just plug in and that's it. So they will reset the color everytime the computer is shutdown. Other keyboards work with software on the computer. These keyboards will boot up to your color every time, but there will always be a program running in the background. So depending on what you value more, you can go either way. But If you already purchased a keyboard, you may be stuck that way.

[@norikjusufi568]

im a satisfied customer and i can say its amazing

[@LYDIA4678-l6m]

when you make a review on a keyboard can you post the link

[@flooby_]

You say it doesn't require drivers, however is there a way to get drivers if you want to customize the LEDs to your own liking like some of the other keyboards?

[@deacondawg1416]

Thanks, just bought one.

[@shpatm]

do u know how to lock ur favorite light color? everytime i shutdown the pc the light gets back to deafult

[@LoremasterGarcia]

Is there any way to save my led preferences? Each time i turn my pc on i have to manually adjust the effect i want. It's kinda annoying really...

[@MattieKB]

Loremaster Garcia Nope. Some other keyboards require you to install software to use them. This allows you to save your settings and even customize more, but there will always be an extra program running in the background. So with this keyboard you don’t have to worry about software, but you will have to punch in your favorite color setting every time you turn on your computer. Different people like it different ways. I personally prefer no software.

[@Mr-Chuck]

I have this keyboard and it is so cool

[@JGokuu]

Alright so I’m new to pc gaming, so what’s the big deal behind lights on the keyboard/mouse?

[@ronpruchnicki6828]

Ay Gokuu if a keyboard has lights it usually means it’s a gaming keyboard or gaming mouse and mechanical keyboards cost so much because mechanical keyboards have high response time and they have clicky sounds but u can also get silent sounds while membrane keyboards are silent and less expensive and mice with good side buttons are nice for gaming keybinds and I myself have a mecha membrane 40 dollar razor cynosa chroma keyboard with a 12 dollar Logitech g402 and hope this helped with what u were wondering and have a nice day!

[@JGokuu]

GG_ Assassin thanks for the explanation man! 😊

[@ronpruchnicki6828]

Np

[@MattieKB]

I just like lights so I can see the keys. The colored lights are just for people who like them. And this keyboard is a basic one.. there is nothing special about it except that it has colorful lights. Like the other guy said, some keyboards actually have mechanical switches and those work and feel alot different than a normal, cheap membrane keyboard. So the lights themselves have nothing to do with anything.. they are just for looks.

[@JGokuu]

MattsLifeAdventures ah okay 👌

[@syedaunzaidi1796]

I want to buy a budget gaming keyboard. Is this keyboard good for gaming????

[@MattieKB]

How tight is your budget? I would say if your trying to spend $20 to $30 then yes this is a good option. But if you can spend $40 to 60 I would get a mechanical keyboard. You don't have to spend $200 to get a good mechanical keyboard.

Mine got some water damage... and ordered a new one. The new one which also says.. K503... did NOT have the shut down or sleep button. Now I gotta figure out how to program these G1 to G5 keys to shut down or sleep ... Anyone else get the newer one from Amazon that has no power down or sleep buttons?

[@orangepeelshark8412]

Since you have the newer version, does it feel the same? The thing I love about this keyboard is the way typing and the way the keys feel in general. I love it. I'm worried that if I get the newer version or a different kind of silent membrane that I'm gonna hate it.

[@Jellonova]

How do you save the color settings so that they don't reset to rainbow every time your computer reboots?

You can’t save the settings on this keyboard.

Hello, i have this keyboard and do you know if it is possible to keep in memory the colour of the keyboard and the memory of the DPI of the mouse? When i shut down the computer and restart it i always need to adjust the color of where i let it when i did close the computer and i always need to readjust the DPI... do you have the same problem?

[@MattieKB]

Yes I have the same problem. It will not remember your settings. Some other keyboard require you to install software and this will save your settings, but then you have a program running in the background all the time slowing down your computer so personally I would rather adjust my settings every time =)

It is decent for the money if you want a keyboard that looks like a "gamer keyboard". There are worse keyboards out there and there are also better ones that are cheap. But of course an expensive mechanical keyboard it going to be better, so it depends on what you are currently looking for.
