Royal Kludge RK61 60% Mechanical Keyboard Review - Best Budget 60% Keyboard!

[@noj1yt]

I think you just convinced me to buy my first 60% keyboard. Update: i just bought it and the learning curve is pretty easy. Another update: switched to 65% instead. It's the sweetspot.

[@akeef1999]

I'm using this keyboard for a week now and I'm in love with it

[@rxqd]

I like it, not sure if I want to exchange it for the RK71 though, I use arrow keys all the time, so it’s annoying to press FN + Enter after scrolling in something in like an mmo and need to ask something.

Hi Sir Marvin, I think this video deserves a part 2 with perhaps an intro to its modding? Especially now that majority of your group owns this board! Cheers!

[@ogdarth6339]

i love the lighting effects 👍

[@pietrosanchez7484]

I have the non-RGB version and they improved the layer implementation. I just got mine yesterday and it uses "Fn+Enter" to toggle between Ctrl and Arrow Keys instead of "Fn+Left Shift". To access '?' you only need to press "Right Shift + ?" while in Arrow Keys mode. Using "Left Shift + ?" will work as "Shift + Up Arrow " (useful for highlighting lines of text). If you don't use the right Ctrl keys much, I would advise you leave it at Arrow Keys mode. The spacebar no longer has that dreaded red LED when charging. Instead it blinks upon connection to indicate battery status Edit: Added info on spacebar

[@ZealousPumpkinTV]

To any potential buyer out there, I have the keyboard and got it on amazon for 55$ on a lightning deal, it is usually 65$, Got it with reds , after 2 weeks using the keyboard, the "K" key and the W key started not registering always, my character ingame stopped running forward, you can already imagine my frustration when this happened. Just yesterday when I was trying to pause a video in youtube with the space bar, it didn't register the first / first two times, I pressed the spacebar further into the switch and it seems to no longer be doing this, again , I've been using this keyboard for barely 4 weeks now. The RGB is beautiful and the aesthetics of the keyboard as well, nice experience typing, is just the reliability of the switches that has me worried.I saw like 10-15 other reviews experiencing the same issue. with the "A"/ "W"/ "D" keys. etc.

[@keviivfx626]

Zealous Pumpkin did you drop the keyboard or hit it?

[@637jackyy]

I got the same one for $30 but it wasn’t full rgb it was just blue

[@jaydeofw]

Jackyy you got a different one😂

[@BlancoWilliams]

itsJaySzn _ he got the same keyboard just non rgb version. The non-rgb is the cheaper one. The white one comes with blue and the black one only comes yellow if you don’t get the rgb version

[@ZealousPumpkinTV]

@@keviivfx626 No, I take good care of my belongings in general, that keyboard looks and feels like new, but the switches have some trouble registering, I think it might be cuz the keyboard is not FULLY NKRO, I've noticed yesterday while playing fortnite, I would press A and W or D to move around and the character started moving only left / right but not W unless I pressed the W again, which was annoying,

[@mathewseater7996]

It’s good for casual gaming or typing but if you are going to be gaming on it for 6+ hours a day the W key and Shift key will stop working after a month or so. Would not suggest this keyboard at all going for a hot swappable keyboard then when you switches do break you can swap it out and put in a fresh one

[@takeshisatou2371]

my rk61 has latency issues on a 2015 laptop. I tried it on my old laptop and my friend's laptop (both laptop models from the same year), and found that there's a lot of latency. But when using it on my desktop, there isn't any latency. My desktop has a bluetooth 5.0 chip inside. Thats probably the reason why it has latency.
