RK ROYAL KLUDGE R87 Mechanical Keyboard 75 Layout Hot Swappable Wired Gaming Keyboard Software Macro Compact RGB Backlit

Now this isn't a massively expensive, specially curated keycapped keyboard. It's not the same as a $300 model. But that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The keyboard is quiet, and the travel isn't overly obvious so fast typing is not hampered. I have a Pok3r 60% keyboard that I used for many years, but I missed the dedicated function keys and arrow keys. This keyboard is as good as my old Filco (my first mechanical keyboard) that I foolishly sold. The keypresses are quiet, measuread and not "floppy" as the switches are very nice. The RGB effects are standard (I choose the random color under each key setting, as it makes the keyboard stand out), and they aren't obtrusive. The side lights can be turned off as well, so you don't have to be annoyed that your desk lights up. I have not tested the hot-swappable feature, as I don't have any spare switches to replace. I don't think I will, unless I put different ones under the arrow keys or the WASD layout. That's a nice feature that is becoming less rare on the lower end models, which I think is a good thing. One thing is the USB connector to the keyboard is quite snug and takes a bit of force to get it in there, but when you do, it won't accidentally fall out. It has guides on the side that make things easy to use, but the location underneath the keyboard doesn't give much in the way of room for your fingers as you push the cord into the USB-C port. Overall, if you're remotely curious about mechanical keyboards but do not want to break the bank, this keyboard is a great place to start. With hot-swappable switches, good connectivity and a premium feel to it (even if it's plastic), you can't go wrong. Unless of course you still need a numeric keypad. Read more

The media could not be loaded. This keyboard is amazing. It comes with pre-lubed yellow linear switches (which are also hot-swappable!), and they feel absolutely awesome. The stabilizers on the larger keys is pretty good too; everything on the keyboard feels really well built. It is very comfortable for gaming, with the linear action being very smooth and with a perfect actuation force in my opinion. The cable is nice, it isn't braided but it doesn't feel extremely cheap either. Be careful with the adapter though, it's easy to break it off as the connection with the usb-c end isn-t really strong. It will work nonetheless so it doesn't bother me. The lighting is very good. Brightness is enough to be seen during the day and definitely during night too. It doesn't shine in one part more than another, which is a very common problem in budget keyboards. The side light is also pretty powerful too, the colors blend into each other nicely. Overall, I highly recommend this product to anyone, as it works for every activity, and if you want to upgrade it, you can at any time! Read more

Some keyboards are cheap and for a reason. This keyboard is reasonably priced and typing on it is satisfying and responsive. Definitely feels like a quality keyboard with nice switches. Not silent, but quiet and not clicky. Pretty smooth through the press and feels like there's something pushing back to reset the switch. Read more

The media could not be loaded. I wasn't expecting such great quality from a keyboard at this value- but surprisingly the keycaps don't feel cheap at all and the design of the case is extremely sleek, especially with the lighting underneath. I opted for yellow switches and a white keyboard. It isn't too clicky, but has a quieter and more thick sound (less thick in the video, but a bit more in person). The keybinds on the function keys are useful, having buttons to control music, audio, and even open certain applications. If you're looking for a first mechanical keyboard this is a great choice! My only complaint is that there's no software to adjust the keyboard lights with- though you are able to do a lot manually through the keyboard itself. Just make sure not to throw out the manual!

This keyboard is nice and it sounds great, however it will not work unless you have another usbc cable to plug it in with. The stock cable that this came with didn’t not register with my pc, and so none of the keys were working even though it was lit up. Also there is no software that matches the S/N of my keyboard so I can’t change the RGB through a software. Other than these things, the more important things about this keyboard are good. Read more

I recently got this RGB keyboard, and I'm very pleased with its performance and design. The keystrokes are nicely tactile without being clicky, which is perfect for quiet environments or late-night sessions where you don't want to disturb others. One of the standout features is the USB-C connectivity, which makes it incredibly easy to swap out cables if needed—adding a touch of convenience that I really appreciate. The RGB lighting is bright and vibrant, adding a cool aesthetic that enhances my setup. The size is just right; it's compact enough to fit on smaller desks without taking up too much space, yet the keys are spaced well enough to avoid the cramped feeling you can get with some smaller keyboards. The white color of the keyboard adds a sleek, modern look that really pops on my desk. Overall, this keyboard strikes a great balance between functionality and style, making it a fantastic choice for anyone looking to upgrade their typing experience without sacrificing aesthetics. Highly recommend! Read more

I have been using this keyboard for around 1-2 months now. The quality feels good and it looks pretty good. Although, I still do want the RGB to be brighter. It sounds and feels good, the sound it makes is very satisfying. It makes a creamy sound that will not be heard all around the house, like my old keyboard which had cherry red switches. It is quite compared to other keyboards, but I see that as a good thing because like I previously mentioned, people around your house will not hear it. Only those who are close to the keyboard can.
