Redragon K517 Pro Wireless Gaming Keyboard, RGB Backlit, Tri-Mode BT/2.4GHz/USB-C, Mechanical Feel 94 Keys Computer Keyboard with 4 Macro Keys, Number Pad, 4000mAh Battery for Win/MAC

I bought this keyboard and mouse set for my dad, and he has been pretty happy with it so far. The keyboard is practical and easy to use, and the colorful RGB design makes it look much more interesting than a basic keyboard. The mouse also works well and feels comfortable enough for everyday use. Overall, it’s a convenient keyboard and mouse combo with a fun design, and it has been a good fit for my dad’s daily computer use. Good value for the price!

I am currently typing on the Karura 2 keyboard, I have watched many reviews about this keyboard and I guess the one I got was the "updated newer version" The key layout is a bit different from the reviews i've seen but those reviews were like years ago. Upon typing on this right now I can feel that some keys are kinda hard to type on but it is no problem to me at all because I wanted a quieter keyboard than my mechanical one. I am a streamer and my mechanical keyboard is just so loud, great keyboard but super loud without a palm rest and it is not a full size keyboard. I decided to go with the red dragon (thank god I found this) because I already own a red dragon product myself which is their mouse that I bought about 3 years ago and man it is still working like its new. I was about to pull the trigger on a corsair for double the price of this keyboard! and I am glad I was able to save half the money because this keyboard just looks sleek, material feels smooth and rubbery which I like. Yes the keyboard is RGB and I mean it is RGB not in a sense that you can customize it like Razer or corsair keyboards but as soon as I plugged in the keyboard it was preset to a rainbow color theme, meaning each key had different colors. You can also change it to solid colors and different lighting effects, still havent played around with all of them but trust me youll know what to do once you get the keyboard. Did I already mention that this thing is pretty damn QUIET?, like I stated above I needed a keyboard that was quiet and yes this keyboard feels pretty damn quiet. The added wrist rest feels a whole lot better for someone who didn't have a wrist rest for a long time also lol. If you're on a budget this is a great keyboard to get, yes it may not feel as premium as the more expensive keyboard, yes the keys are a bit hard to press but for the price I paid for it, it definitely suits my needs.

Solid keyboard that I am using in my everyday office use. It is the same size as my laptop's keyboard, but the keys have much better travel. The material is very soft, so your fingers may slide a bit, but it hasn't affected my typing. Unlike mechanical keyboards, the keys here are nice and quiet. Again, using it in an office setting, I know it won't annoy others in the office. Bluetooth pairing was a breeze, and when it "sleeps", the wake up time is quick. Having a dedicated number pad was a must when I was looking to replace my older keyboard. The one negative, and it is something I have to get used to, is that there is no dedicated delete key. You have to use the function and bracket button to activate delete. The function button is on the right side of the keyboard, and with my average hands is not an issue. Again, it's just something that hopefully I will develop muscle memory over time and get used to. Is it a dealbreaker? Possibly. I love everything else so maybe I can use a macro and have a key dedicated for delete. Attached are photos with it against my ASUS laptop keyboard and my older Logitech K360 for comparison Redragon for the win.

Going to keep the text for my old review below so that people can see that I had much the same problems as others before. After writing my first review I was contacted by the seller and offered a replacement even though it had been a while since I had ordered this keyboard. I was of course skeptical because I figured I would just get another keyboard with the same problems as before. The seller insured me this would not be the case, because there had been a redesign since the first model. All in all the seller was very helpful and responded promptly to my questions. We exchanged a number of emails before I finally decided to accept an exchange. I have to say I am glad I took the exchange rather than a refund. The redesign is fantastic. The keys are now very responsive. Its truly like night and day from before. This is the keyboard I had hoped to get to begin with and I am glad there's a seller out there that cares enough to insure I did. Its now the total package of aesthetics and functionality I had hoped for, enough so that I changed my 1 star rating to a 5 and can now fully suggest this keyboard to anyone. _____________ Bought this thing quite some time back with plans to builda desktop system. When I decided against building said system this keyboard took up residence in my closet. Recently my laptopkeyboard crapped out on me so I pulledthis out to use until I can order a replacement. Aesthetically the keyboard is very nice. Like the features, like the material its made of and the tactile texture of the keys. HATE the spacebar. As everyone else seems to have mentioned you seem to have to mash thespacebar 10x harder than any other key to get itto work. I haveintentionally left this review full of the typosthis issue has caused. If you arenot willing to backspace 40 times per sentence tofix all the missed spaces, do not buy this keyboard. It truly is thatbad. Its maddeningthat an otherwise serviceable design is killed by such poor functionality.

Exactly what I needed, lightweight, keys feel and sound great, no issues detected so far! Wireless works great, latency is good.

(Update ) Since the Old review ( see the lower part ) the company I bought this from has contacted me and offered a replacement. To which I gladly said yes. Thus upping my rating for this product over all. I still stand by my first review that the fact that is not repairable is annoying. But with a solid return policy this is a minor issue. Though I would like to note and stress that you DO NOT OPEN UP THE KEYBOARD as that can void all returns agreements. As such, if this is the level of serves I can continue to expect, and I already enjoy the keyboard. I will gladly buy from them again, or another keyboard should I ever truly need a second for another computer. ( Old Review ) Let me be clear, I do like this keyboard, as I prefer the lower profile and quieter keyboard set up. But I have to be honest so here goes. The keyboard is decently built, solid, and decently water proof. The color affects are decent, and once you learn to control them can be fun. The key strokes are nice, with only a tiny bit of travel. The problem with this keyboard is that once a key gives out. The whole board is trash. The shift key gave out on mine, causing quiet the bit of problems to say the least. And when I looked into repairing it well... that is not possible. The key switches are all part of the same board making replacing anyone of the keys impossible. This is not bad if you are is one of the number pad of the function keys, but when it is the shift keys that can ruin it entirely. The key would drop in and out and not always connect or let up. As such once I realized it was broken and that I could not replace it, it was nothing more than junk. If you are lucky this should be just fine, but remember that though this LOOKS nice, a Logitech keyboard for less than half the price will work a lot longer and better.

So when I bought this keyboard, I meant for it to be a temporary replacement because my good Leopold had a fateful encounter with a bit of Monster Energy; I forgot my USB cable was tied to the desk causing it to yank in an arch which tipped over my drink when I picked up my phone. At first, I thought this keyboard was realy cool. It resembles the Razer Deathstalker, my first GAMING keyboard I ever owned. It's low profile, smooth and soft to the touch which I liked and it has a nice shapeee. It's not so bad for the price until I started having issues with input when I'm typing, and I hate having input issues when I type becauase I hate having to correct typos that shouldn't have happened at all. (for the sake of review, I'm not going to fix the typos this keyboard creates, to make a point.) For example, when I use Typeracer, when I type a word like "really" the second L would be dropped from the input altogether, and I know I pressed because of how heavy I type. Then there are times where Spacebar doesn't input at all and prior to this review using Typeracer, my E key replicated itself 3 times. Then there has also been some input latency, where I'll hit the buttons for a word like "catastrophic" but the A, S and I keys input would be replicated but also delayed long enough to show up after their following letters have been written. So I'll have duplicate key presses from a single push going through a second time following other letters. So for $30, it's an OK keyboard. But I would only use it if it's your only option. I wouldn't recommend this keyboard if you can spend $20 or more for a budget mechanical keyboard or anything else. Maaybe save $10 or $20 and just buy a cheaper keyboard at a local Walmart, Target or any store with inexpensive keyboards. I could also have just gotten a defective piece, or I type heavily enough that it sticks, causing the problems. Either way, I can't safely recommend this keyboard to anyone, even if it is a temporary replacement.

First of all, the Redragon Karura K502 is an amazing gaming keyboard. I have used keyboards like Razer and Corsair, and I can definitely tell that this keyboard is up on par with other great keyboards available in the market. PROS 1) Backlighting is awesome. It has 7 distinctive colours, and all of them are wonderful. Breathe effect is a plus. There are 4 levels of illumination (off, low, medium, high). If you turned the breathing effect on, it will circle through all seven colours. Simply fantastic. 2) High quality build. This is THE BEST gaming keyboard available under 70 usd range. It has a solid and rigid build, with rubber-like texture. Looks elite and professional. 3) Good design. It is simple yet very elegant. The overall appearance of the keyboard is very stylish. 4) Wrist rest is wide and comfortable. The rubber-like finish makes it very comfortable to rest your wrist while typing or gaming. Of course, it will leave a stain if you use it for a while, but after five minutes, the stain will disappear thanks to the materials used to build this keyboard. 5) Typing experience: The keys feels amazing and typing is extremely smooth. It is rather silent when typed on. Keys are incredibly responsive. 6) Gaming experience: Marvelous. Gaming is exemplary for this keyboard. CONS: 1) Keys spring resistance are rather strong, making it slightly harder to know whether you typed successfully or not. 2) Springy sound of the spacebar. It is not really a bad touch, it is just different. I personally love the sound. FINAL VERDICT: An exemplary gaming keyboard from Redragon. It is my first time using their product, but I would like to express my thanks and appreciation to Redragon for producing such a fine piece of technology. I love it very, very much. :D I will be looking forward for the next excellence by Redragon. Keep up the awesome work guys. :)

ok

This keyboard is awesome for first time system build. Registers multiple keystrokes at once for smother gameplay. The backlit is there and you can change color of it and brightness level (i use the maximum one others are too low). But it is not controlable from the PC so you will have to choose your setting every time you turn on. Not a big deal for the price. At least it has it. The switches are very quite and have a rubbery feel. If you want mechanical feel or an option to change keycaps do not buy this... For other purposes this will do the job. The attached cable is a threaded black and red cable so it does look and feel high quality. The only problems i have are 1. The num key and caps indicator are only red led no matter what color you choose. 2. It catches a lot of dust. I keep a dry cloth and wipe it clean once a week. 3. The whit led backlite is not exactly white. It has some bluish tint to it. The problems are very minor for the price and for entry level keyboards i will highly recomand this.

Cool keyboard. The extra platform length at the front kinda acts like a wrist rest which is cool. Yet to see how comfortable is with prolonged use. Keys are pretty quiet. Kinda "deep" to press into, but I think I'll adjust to that quickly. Love the adjustable colours on the keys.

Amazing!

Good keyboard, but I had to return it because the response of the "space bar" was very poor, you had to press it with a lot of pressure to make it work. The keyboard looks good, quiet, interesting backlighting options. From the minuses we can note the surface of the stand under the hand, the material quickly gets dirty. It's a pity that I had to return it. I like the brand Redragon, ordered another model.
