Solid budget mechannical keyboard.
RK71 is a solid mechanical keyboard. 70% layout is not a common layout, but it is actually very useful. It not only has dedicated arrow keys, but other functional keys.RK71 can be connected to PC by either wire or bluetooth. This is convenient. When I am not playing games, I use bluetooth. It makes the desk clean by removing a cable. Its bluetooth connection is stable. I haven't experienced any issues so far. With wired connection, there is no lag.The feeling on this keyboard is pretty decent. The switch is linear red, made by RK. The feeling is like gateron black. I think its actuation is heavier than gateron red. Well, all switches feel constant. They all have the same feeling. RK71 uses PBT keycaps, and they are shine-through. These PBT keyaps feel premium. Although the case is plastic, the overall weight is still heavy. It is still very sturdy on the desk. The rubber feet make it non-slippery.Note that the back light is not RGB. It's blue light only. On its left and right sides, there are colorful lights. I don't think there is software you can use to adjust the light.Considering its price, I think RK71 is a very solid entry level mechanical keyboard. It absolutely works for both gaming and normal work.

BT, usb c, quality feel for $37!
*six month update*I have been using this keyboard every day for my work at home setup and I am very happy with the purchase. The longest I have gone without charging it has been about a week and I still don't even know if it needed a charge. The keyboard goes to sleep when not in use so if I walk away for lunch it just needs to be woken up before typing away. I am not a Mechanical keyboard enthusiast, but just a noob so I am not familiar with the $200 builds and simply don't have the budget to justify that kind of purchase which is why this one has been a steal. If I could do it again I would have bought the blue clicky keys since there are no coworkers to bother while working from home.*one month update*Everything below still pertains. I enjoy it, no weird bugs are occurring. I wish it displayed the battery life somewhere. I am just charging it every few days so it doesn’t die on me mid work but I never know what the life is at. I suggest getting a palm rest if you are using it for 8 hour work shifts as it is higher than standard office keyboards.First impressionsTo clarify I am using this for office work and personal. I do not have a gaming pc but instead bought it for the tactile clicky feel. I bought it with brown switches as blue would be too loud.So far it’s been really good value for the $37 I paid. I went deep into the rabbit hole of mechanical keyboards and was ready to pay more than $100 but refrained from doing so because most didn’t have Bluetooth. Like I said I’m not gaming so I don’t need bt.This has everything I want, it has a quality weight to it, the keys have a metal cool touch to them, and it successfully paired with all my devices. It also switches from one to another in seconds. All on top of the fact that it has usb c which will be a must for my Mac.For this price you can’t go wrong if you’re like me and just want an entry level mechanical keyboard for typing duties. My only gripe is that I miss the 10 digit keypad. I plan on buying that separately since I didn’t see rk offered a 100% of this version.

Kludge: An ill-assorted collection of parts assembled to fulfill a particular purpose.
I like the name. Not because it's accurate, but that it's funny and odd. I'm going to mainly focus on gripes since nobody has time for positivity.Ease of Use-------------There's a wired mode and a bluetooth mode. You'll need to toggle a switch on the bottom to change between them. The switch is easy to toggle, but this still isn't ideal. However, there's no room on the top of the keyboard for any such thing, so it's just a design compromise that you have to live with.It can save bluetooth pairing knowledge with up to 5 devices at a time, which can be switched between within seconds with a simple key combination. I found myself doing this not because I needed to, but because it was nifty. Nifty in a swiss army knife sort of way. Like sometimes you want to just flip all the tools out and put them back in one by one.I can't speak for the Mac mode, but it seems to be just as seamless to change to as everything else. The one glaring problem I have, that wasn't caused by an understandable design compromise, is that the Escape key is stacked with the Tilda and Backquote keys. That's fine, but not only did they choose to have the tilda be the primary key, they labeled it with the secondary keys. You can switch which set of keys are the primary and secondary, but it switches the entire row as well. You seemingly can't change Escape, which is a much more commonly used key than Tilda, to be primary without also changing the F1-F12 keys to be primary. Not the end of the world, but having to hit FN + Escape to use the Escape key is bad and I don't like.The manual explains things clearer than I'd expect a wholly Chinese product to explain them. I saw no poor English, no bloat and only 1 typo. Well done. I will be referencing the manual constantly while writing this and I want to emphasize just how clear and to-the-point it is. Someone had their head screwed on straight that day and they clearly got a real English speaker to go over it and test this stuff to make sure it makes sense.Key Quality-------------My main keyboard is a Ducky Shine 5 with real MX Brown keys, so that is my point of reference.The keycaps are not top quality, but they're not glaringly low quality either. The main characters are the ones that have transparency for the backlight, but some of them didn't turn out perfectly. There are some dark spots on some keys with the lighting on. Personally, I can live with this. The white characters for the special functions are printed on, so these will surely wear off with time. I think I actually prefer the presses of these knockoff switches over the real Cherry MX Browns. I never really liked those, but these have a nice twang to them that I find enjoyable, so I think in this case, cheapness worked out for the better. The angles to the key edges are sharper than I'd like.Lighting, Looks and Battery--------------------------------I thought that this was a full RGB keyboard and maybe I could even customize every key like I can with the Ducky Shine 5. Nope. To be fair, it does say that it's single color in the fine print on the product page. It has RGB on the sides, which it showcases and maybe this is even intentional for the purpose of misleading people into thinking it's RGB when it's not. Either way, I can't complain since it does say what it is on the product page and the side lighting does look slick. I just hope you like the color blue.It has "17 backlighting effects" including [off]. I just use static on low brightness since I find everything else distracting/unnecessary. It does have brightness control and effect speed control. Despite being only 1 color, it definitely could also be a lot more basic than it is. Evidently there is an RGB version of this since the manual has instructions for it, but it seems to be single colors only. Not full customizability as some keyboards offer.When it's in wireless mode, it will turn off the backlight automatically after only 1 minute to save power. Depending on what you're doing, this can be irritating. I haven't really tested how long the battery lasts, but it's not a concern to me as long as it lasts for 1 day of use, which I'm sure it does. If absolute battery life is a concern then probably go for one of these kinds of keyboards that have a bigger battery. I've seen one that claims 4000mah, which is 4x more than this one claims.Additional Notes--------------------Easy to pick up and manipulate, which is an important aspect to a compact, clearly on-the-go type of keyboard. On the side, there's an angled indent that hands fit nicely in. It feels solid in the hands and would be hard to drop accidentally. When looking dead-on, there are visible screws under the keys in a few places around the keyboard. If this bothers you, you can probably hide them easily with some sort of white tape or just paint the screwheads white. The charging indicator is shared with the spacebar LED. At first I thought this was a really nice touch because it looks like it might fill up the space bar as it charges, but disappointingly, it's just a static light.- Has a couple magnetic rubberized feet for the back legs that are neat.- Decent length USB-C cable- Key-pullerConclusion-------------It didn't meet my wildest expectations, but for $40, I can't complain as long as it holds up over time. It's probably better than I should have expected.

no sirven las F# y es ANSI
naturalmente es ANSI y no miente en la foto al respecto. no hay versión con la extra tecla a la derecha del shift izquierdo (para mayor y menor en español) como en los ISO. más allá de esto y si en contra de como se presenta, no parece haber forma de activar las teclas F#, no dice nada en el manual al respecto e intentando control+fn como dicen en muchos lados hace que las teclas de los números se vuelvan las de media (en vez de numeros por default y media con fn) y picando fn también las activa en vez de las F.están bonitos los efectos de luz y chidas teclas pero no tiene base tampoco y lo antedicho de las F no recomendable. aparte de que no hay versión ISO pero eso sabía desde que lo compré

No vale la pena
No es un buen producto y puedes conseguir un teclado de mejor calidad por el mismo precio. El acabado de las teclas y la base de teclado es de mala calidad, muy liviano y en general los componentes se sienten sumamente baratos. Claramente es un teclado relativamente económico, pero no compite con los otros teclados del mismo precio. Sí es cómodo y suenan bien los switches, pero tiene demasiados problemas y bugs. Además, descargar el software es innecesariamente complicado y de páginas que parece que traen virus, incluso la página oficial activa el antivirus de Windows. Las segundas funciones no sirven (por ejemplo, controlar el volumen). Devolveré el producto, por el mismo precio recomiendo un teclado Ajazz o por un poco más un Hyper X Alloy.

高級キーボード入門におすすめ
スタイリッシュで、ライトの種類も豊富で良かったです。打鍵感もよく、このお値段でメカニカル茶軸なら安いかと。
