Redragon K617 Fizz Review - Comparison vs Redragon K530

[@rdhdhn]

I'm using the K617 right now! Trust me this keyboard is the best with its price range. I added 3 layers of tape (tempest mod), EVA foam, holee mod (some stabs were wobbly) and lubed all switches. It sounds so good!

[@lumberjack5741]

did u struggle taking off the switches or opening the case?

[@abatatinha3471]

me too bro this is hella good

[@coolguy-zt6tr]

Could u make a sound test video with lubed switches bc i wanted to buy it. Thanks

[@rdhdhn]

@@lumberjack5741 a 100% yes. Broke two switches too. I still have stuck switch pins on my pcb until now I don’t know how to fix it probably by desoldering. But the mod is still worth it for sure.

[@rdhdhn]

@@coolguy-zt6tr bet you can search up some videos with it. Sorry I don’t have anything to record audio cleanly.

[@zer0sckillz539]

I picked up the K617 of after watching this review and I'm still blown away how good this keyboard is for the price. I'm actually using it over my Drevo Blademaster TE TKL that I was using prior. I'll always use a 60% going forward. Crazy good value and excellent comparison.

[@helmy7525]

what about the build quality

[@willtanoe]

@@helmy7525 the build quality is great around it's price range, been using this kb around 3 months now , its great in my opinion

[@rkxgodzilla]

Please tell if i have to use arrow keys as this k617 doesnt have them then what do i press on the keyboard so that i can ise them as arrow keys cuz so many games like gta 5 require arrow keys as well

[@goldation9191]

Got the k617 last week as my first mech kb and I can definitely say it's super good for its price range. The rgb are very bright and the sound are pleasing to me. I got it for like around 27$ on my area. It's super worth it imo.

[@goldation9191]

@@Blanker_Than_You Yeah not a problem im also using the keyboard on my Laptop... So there's nothing to worry about!

[@DocMonke]

@@Blanker_Than_You yea there’s no need for a keyboard to just work for a pc, you can get it for a laptop too dw

[@WildWildWeasel]

I ordered the K530 since I couldn’t get the 617 due to it being sold out, but before this I had a cheap-ass Meetion MK01 which was absolute trash, came with like 3 faulty switches and all. The keyboard and mouse decided to commit harakiri so I ordered me the K530 and a Storm Elite mouse.

I actually bought this keyboard 2 weeks ago, I'm still waiting to get it (because of international shipping). I'm planning to do the tape and foam mod, and later I will buy ocean blue Akko switches. Thanks for letting us know that we can use Akko switches.

[@IronFortitude]

Man I did a tape/foam mod, lined the inside with taped down pennies for added weight, swapped with Akko Rose Reds (thanks for the tip Consumer Tech Reviews), and pudding keycaps, it’s amazing.

[@Amutomoto]

try the lavander purple switch instead and it will thocks more

Great review. It is an amazing keyboard for the price I’m using mine with Akko matcha greens and radiant reds. Feker switches also fit these sockets so the options aren’t as limited as it looks

[@Toast_Boy1]

yo update? and also can i keep laying tape instead of foam for the same result ??????

I was waiting for you to do this video! I knew you had the K530 to compare it to, which I didn't have. Yeah, I don't know how they pulled this off either. Well done!

[@jpsecundino2235]

Recently I got the K616 (also known as Fizz Pro or the bluetooth version of k617) and its awesome! The only problem is that I came from a full keyboard, so I'm having trouble with the learning curve of the 60%'s. I dont recommend only for Portuguese writing.

Got mine a week ago, only thing I can say about it is that it's been doing pretty good and overall I'm happy with it. Just want to point out that the keycaps especially the ones with the prints for arrow keys (awsd) will wear out the print after sufficient use Pretty good for only 20 dollars in my area

just bought the k617 fizz and so far I like it I'm currently typing on it rn and it feels so good of course its not as premium as other higher end redragon keyboard but the red switches sounds nice the rgb is brighter then i was expecting it's hot swappable and u can change the switches and for the price I'd recommend this for those who are looking for cheap mechanical keyboard

In my area I have the k530 used and k617 new with same budget what can you suggest me to buy ?

How is it now bro any issues na d how's the customer support

[@lucastostes9460]

i just got the fizz for the same price a year later on prime day! silent red switches! My favorite thing, aside from the mechanical switches, is the lighting! The light modes are super cool there are about 7, with variable speeds and brightness. im super impressed with the brightness and color! also this is my first mechanical keyboard and i gotta tell you, it feels much better than the padded standard ones! eventually i want to upgrade to the huntsman mini, but for the price this was a great little step up from my old keyboard!

im using this right now but as my first mechanical keyboard its amazing the switches sound good and i think they are lubed and for gamers the rgb is just AMAZING!

[@Kitoslaw270]

Hello people, this recenzator is unfair and biased towards the K617 and here's why: He made the RGB in K530 darker so he could say that K617 has better RGB He has said that the red switches are better because the keyboard doesn't move even though neither keyboard moved X D He's a total mitoman, and I would never listen to him during his keyboard reviews.
