RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK96 90% Triple Mode BT5.0/2.4G/USB-C Hot Swappable Mechanical Keyboard with Magnetic Wrist Rest, 96 Keys Wireless Gaming Keyboard with Software, Blue Backlight

The media could not be loaded. Looks nice, great layout with numpad, and pretty dang good stabilizers. I replaced a good portion of the stock keycaps to get a more custom look. The original caps are a bit on the thin side and are probably the weakest aspect of the keyboard, however, they should be fine for most users. Removing and replacing switches was easy too, but I am quite satisfied with the browns mine came with. Having the freedom to use any switch in the future is amazing at this price point.I was using a Blackwidow v2 TKl, and I can honestly say the switches feel better on this one. I had the razer orange switches which are brown equivalents. This keyboard is better, especially since it's wireless. Blackwidow often gets switxh double presses and it's a damn shame you cannot simply replace a switch and be good to go.Wireless 2.4 has low latency, feels the same as wired (to me) when gaming or typing. The mode switch buttons on the back are a little cheap, but it's to be expected that some things might not be top notch on a keyboard with such a rich feature set. They are out of sight so it's no issue. Still testing battery life with lower level backlight.The included wrist wrest is nice, but to me, it feels too short so I just reused my razer wrist wrest since this keyboard is just a tad longer than a standard tkl keyboard. Still a nice feature to include, but it might not work for those who are really dependent on a robust wrist wrest.While not perfect, this keyboard hits the mark on too many features for me to ding a star for the couple of areas where it falls a bit short. Also lacking RGB, but I know the rgb version is coming to the US soon. I personally did not want to wait as RGB isn't a necessity for me. I would expect the RGB version to cost a bit more though.For an entry level to mid range mech keyboard, I think this thing does really well. Highly recommend, especially when on a discounted price. I payed 69.99 for mine and was kind of blown away.

I absolutely love this keyboard! You can tell that RK put some thought into building it. It feels and sounds solid. It works perfectly in 2.4 GHz wireless 2.4GHz or Bluetooth 5.0 modes. Obviously, you can connect the keyboard to your computer physically too (and the connector is USB-C thankfully). If you use are using the RK96 via USB, you can connect other USB devices to it (like a USB hub) to cut down on the number of wires on your desk. They really didn’t have to include that functionality, but it’s nice they did. The volume controller is cool because you don’t turn it left or right, you swipe up or down which feels more natural. The key layout is better than all the other TKL keyboards I’ve tried because I don’t have to look down to find the arrow keys. They are shifted just slightly toward the typist so you can feel where they are located.Here’s the big thing: the keyboard customization software is good. I was able to disable the caps lock and tilde keys (I do this for gaming but you can change any key on the board), set the right ALT and right CTRL to Home and End (there are Home and End function keys, but with my new keycaps I can’t tell where they are, lol—more on this later), and I recorded a few macro shortcuts with the software and set them to the F8 and F9 keys.If you are into keyboard customization the RK96 is a great starting point. The case and stabilizers are high quality. The PCB can withstand some accidental liquid spillage (see below). The included keycaps and hot-swappable switches are good, but if you’re an enthusiast you’re going to change them out anyway. I bought the RK96 with red switches (for gaming) but changed most of them out for Drop Holy Pandas. However, I did leave the stock red switches on the WASD and left Shift keys to make my RK96 a typing/gaming keyboard. I also changed out the stock keycaps for Tai-Hao Rainbow Sherbet. Again, you do not have to change out the keycaps and switches, but if you’re an enthusiast or want to customize your keyboard you can.Last thing: I spilled coffee all over my beautiful, customized RK96 keyboard. It was devastating, but after some light water/alcohol cleaning and asking Royal Kludge support (they are great, btw) I was able to save my beloved keyboard.If you're an enthusiast, just getting into mechanical keyboards, or just want a great keyboard I highly recommend the RK96.
