Redragon K617 Fizz 60 Wired RGB Gaming Keyboard 61 Keys Hot-Swap Compact Mechanical Keyboard w White and Grey

The media could not be loaded. I’ve gone through a lot of mechanical keyboards over the years, mostly ones with green and blue clicky or tactile switches. This one surprised me in the best way. The Redragon K617 with magnetic switches feels totally different, in a good way. The overall build is compact and solid. It doesn’t feel cheap at all even though it’s lightweight. The RGB lighting comes through the white keycaps really well, and it fits right into my setup without being too flashy or over the top. What stood out the most was the typing feel. It’s a clacky sound, not loud or sharp like my old clicky boards, but still gives great feedback. More importantly, the switches are fast and smooth. It has software you can download, thats very customizable, i was able set the actuation point to 1.2mm in the software and noticed an instant boost in responsiveness. It takes very little pressure to register a keypress, but I’ve had no accidental triggers, which was my main concern before testing it. For gaming, the low actuation gives you a fast edge, and for typing it just feels clean and light. I didn’t expect it to replace my main board, but here I am keeping it plugged in on my main desk. If you’re looking to try magnetic switches without spending a fortune, this is a seriously good place to start. You get a solid keyboard, a premium-feeling typing experience, and customizable actuation all at a budget price. I’m impressed. Read more

I needed a keyboard for a repurposed Mac Mini running Linux. It's very nice quality and doesn't feel cheap. The weight is very similar to expensive gaming 60% keyboards. The RGB lighting is very vibrant and the keyboard was recognized without any issue. Read more

The media could not be loaded. The color is really cute and the sound is really satisfying for the budget it’s a great choice. I would recommend getting the grey/white one since it could be match most of the colors but this one is also very pretty. Although the colors are only rainbow and it can’t be changed to a solid color, it’s still pretty good and doesn’t really weight much. It doesn’t have battery so it’s good and the brightness a bit distracting for someone who’ll probably use it for gaming (that’s why the light could’ve been more low). It has lifting things on the back which helps with hand placement. Read more

I purchased a used version of this product. I have been using redragon keyboards for years, so I figured that any missing peripherals would be easily swapped. Fortunately, this item arrived in its original packaging with all accessories in new condition. I suppose some people just don't like minimalist keyboards. The magnetic switches are much easier to work with as opposed to mechanical ones that require copper pins to make contact with the pcb. This also opens up a wider variety of options if and when I decide to install higher end switches. The key caps are a bit rough, but for the price, you're getting a platform upon which to build and upgrade. I would recommend some sort of wrist rest and/or desk mat, as these smaller keyboards can be troublesome for those with larger hands. If you're handy and like to tinker, there is much potential to modify this relatively cheap keyboard to compete with the likes of much more expensive models. The software is a point of contention, as most redragon boards do not need companion software to take advantage of their features. Due to the nature of magnetic switches, software is required to access some (but not all) of the features. The lighting effects are more sophisticated than other keyboards of this price range, and the ability to customize each individual key is far more convenient than, say, replacing individual switches to accomplish the same thing with a mechanical keyboard. 3rd party scripts and mods will work with this board just like any other. When setting features via software, those settings are downloaded onto the keyboard and will persist until you use the software to change things. For around $30, I feel like I got a great deal and have room for future upgrades. Gone are the days of having mechanical switches wear out and having to pry them off the board and try to line up flimsy copper pins with tiny surface mounted contacts. Read more

So far I would give this keyboard 5 stars. It looks and feels great! Super cute. Good for gaming :) Read more

let me just say, overall, this is the best keyboard ive ever owned. been through a lot of boards too:razer,ducky,logitech, ect.. and so far this one is my favorite in just overall quality. man these switches are amazing! tried most of the cherry mx ones but never magnetic untill now and i gotta say i don't think i will ever go back! i put a small amount of lube on them and while i couldnt really feel a difference after that i could hear it and it sounds amazing! so satisfying to type on! i feel like i am typing at least 10WPM faster now with significantly fewer errors because there is basically 0 delay. i noticed it straight away the first game i hopped into. My only complaint is the reddragon software is missing some minor functions that other software has, but nothing i couldnt fix with a bit of AHK magic. it is insane to me you can get a keyboard this high quality for this price.
