  • Best keyboard EVER!
Size: Linear Viridian Switch Color: Turquoise Green
I have been trying to be cheap all these years buying the knock off mechanical keyboards, but then I saw this and decided to splurge a little bit since someone gave me a gift card to help cut down some of the cost. Honestly...I am floored by this keyboard and feel like I should have paid full price long ago to get this!! The sound of the typing of each key....omg....pure heaven. As I type on this, I am loving each click as it goes. The videos people have here give you a little bit of an idea but still don't do it justice. You need to see and feel and hear it in person. The color is awesome. I went for the blueish colored keyboard and absolutely loving it and how it looks with the lights off. Speaking of lights, the lights on this keyboard are awesome. Now, keep in mind that the lights will not light up each key so you can see better in the dark. But the lights are more for showing off and having a little light show on your desk. And there are so many customization options to choose from for the light shows. If I remember correctly, there are 12 to pick from on the keyboard itself but there are so many customizations with different lights to pick from, either one color or using all colors of the rainbow to light up. Not to mention you can control the speed and the brightness of it, which is a bonus. I really particularly like the ones where each key lights up as you type. It is so cool. The gif feature is so AWESOME! Find any gif you want online (try Giphy for a wide selection to choose from) and nearly any of them can work here. I didn't see the instructions include it, but you will need a program on your computer (only for Windows, don't think it's available for Linux or macOS) called RK Keyboard and that program not only lets you change the gif but also change colors, update the software, and update the firmware of the keyboard all in the one suite. The program will let you crop the gif any way you'd like to ensure it will fit on the keyboard as you'd like it. Another thing I like about the gif option (as well as other settings of the keyboard) is that it stays with the keyboard even if you switch to another computer. So for those of you sad you can't get RK Keyboard on your Mac or Linux computer, you can load that up on a Windows computer and make your settings and then move it over to your other computer and the settings stay! I am loving the choice of options when it comes to the connectivity of this keyboard. Being able to connect directly over USB type C is great. The cable they give you in the box is also great because it can connect to your computer over USB type C or USB type A using an adapter that is on the cable itself. Not only that, if you happen to lose or damage this cable, I can confirm that any other USB type C cable that charges and syncs will work with this keyboard! Also, I didn't know this until I got the keyboard, but this also has its own USB type A port so you can have another device plugged into your keyboard that will go to your computer! Great for if you have a wired mouse and want to easily have the two on your desk or if you want to hook up your phone on the fly or a gamepad...I loved that option tonight because it meant I could charge my phone and gamepad and never had to kneel down to get to my computer that was on the floor. Also, it's great having the option for Bluetooth and 2.4 wireless instead of being wired all the time. They handled this so well because you can have 3 profiles for 3 different Bluetooth devices and easily change between them using the dial knob so you don't have to go and forget devices and resync and all that. And the 2.4 option....thank you, RK. They actually made a slot for this so you won't easily lose it. It magnetizes the USB type A dongle into the keyboard so you will be less likely to lose it. And I love the screen. Having the ability to have two different places, one as a light up by the ESC key and another in the digital window is so awesome so I can see when Caps lock has been enabled. The volume knob is so satisfying to use too. My only complaint there is that it can't read your computer's volume, so, like on startup, if the computer's volume is set to 100 and you go to turn down the volume using the keyboard dial, the dial starts at 0. So you'll still need to see the volume on the computer screen to know where it is at unless you want to go to the hassle of always moving it way up on startup. Another great thing about the wireless options is that this keyboard automatically turns itself off when not in use to preserve battery. Also, the battery is charged by the USB type C port, which is a huge plus. The material feels very nice. The keys feel nice to type along and so smooth. Though, I expect this to go away with more use as time goes on, as is usual with keys. So far it's been holding up well over about 3 weeks of usage and even carrying it with me with no case. All in all...I love this keyboard and highly recommend it. ... show more

  • Excellent.....so far
Size: Tactile Pale Green Switch Color: Sky Blue
I have gone through quite a few keyboards. By that I mean trying this one and trying that one. Yes, I fell down the rabbit hole of trying to find the one that is supposedly the best. There is no BEST, but this unit comes pretty close. I chose the sky blue one. I have the tactile switches which, in my opinion, happen to be the best for me. I changed the keycaps to SA profile keys because the ones that come on the board, even though good, and I probably could have kept them on and been okay, I still prefer a taller key. So far, this is the best keyboard I have come across after simply changing out the keycaps. The switch is exceptional. The board is not loud, but you can still hear every keystroke. The little screen on it is actually pretty nice and intuitive. The only thing I can't figure out, and it probably cannot be done, is changing the time to non-military. Outside of that, it is pretty cool to see the time and other details on it. The volume knob is exceptional and very smooth. Overall, I am really liking this keyboard and at 61 years of age, to this day, this is the best keyboard........for me. ... show more

  • Best Keyboard I've ever used but one caviat
Size: Tactile Pale Green Switch Color: Sky Blue
I'm no keyboard expert. Before I used a basic logitech wireless keyboard and then a free plugged in mechanical keyboard. This is a huge upgrade for me. I love the way the keyboard feels to type on and sounds. I compare it more to a popping bubble wrap than a typewriter. Connected to my PC with no issues and has a great response time on typing. The program you can download allows you to remap the buttons. And the screen is a great feature, and makes navigating options (connection type, rgb lights, win or mac style, etc) much easier than switches or led lights, but it's also my main issue. It only supports 24 hour time. And being in the US it takes me more time to figure out what over 12 means in the afternoon than just looking at my phone or going to my PC's clock. This is a problem as a lot of the screen real estate is dedicated to the clock. Hopefully this is fixed in an update ... show more

  • So Good, I Bought Two
Size: Linear Viridian Switch Color: Turquoise Green
I don’t usually write reviews, but after picking up my second RK ROYAL KLUDGE S98, I had to say something. This keyboard is hands-down one of the best I’ve used—especially in this price range. First off, the key feel and sound are just incredible. I’ve used a lot of mechanical boards over the years, and this one strikes a perfect balance: smooth keystrokes, satisfying clicks, and none of that cheap, hollow echo you get from lower-end boards. Typing on it honestly makes me want to keep typing. One of my favorite features is the multiple connection options. Bluetooth, 2.4GHz wireless, and USB-C all work flawlessly. I switch between my desktop, laptop, and iPad constantly, and the S98 handles it like a champ. The swap is instant and reliable—no lag or connection weirdness. Build quality is also top-notch. It feels sturdy without being overly heavy, and the battery lasts way longer than I expected. The RGB lighting is a nice touch too—bright, customizable, and not over-the-top unless you want it to be. If you're looking for a mechanical keyboard that punches way above its price tag, this is it. So good, I couldn’t resist getting a second one. ... show more

  • Fantastic Keyboard!
Size: Linear Viridian Switch Color: Lavender Purple
This product itself is amazing. Quality / Durability / Sound / Feel are all amazing. Its nice and solid as well so it will not slide around. They only reason I did not give it a 5 is because of the software. It is not the best. If you care about setting up macros or anything of the sort you might find it not the easiest, especially when compared to something like Razor's software. Would not stop me from buying again, and in fact I bought one for my wife a month or so later because she loved mine so much. ... show more
