RK ROYAL KLUDGE RK96 RGB Wireless Mechanical Gaming Keyboard w/Wrist Rest

Excellent keyboard feels good to the touch the RGB is gorgeous it's got tons of options lots of interfaces good connectivity extremely versatile, good color maybe that's my taste haha but it looks amazing your RGB options have so much functionality your head will spin and the RGB lighting is extremely dynamic and I mean you can go into such depths just on something aesthetic but at the same time this thing is Rock solid, extremely adaptable and it's got good software in which you download yeah I highly recommend this to my friends and family and I didn't get anything for free trust me I paid quite a bit for this thing but it's worth every penny, hell I wish I could chill out for some free stuff and put up a compromise review and not have to pay for once JK but no this is a very nice keyboard because of it I look for this brand first now when I'm deciding on buying something else because the quality and everything the packaging you know the fit and finish as they say I mean it's blown away I've always had regular kind of you know basic Walmart store level keyboards I never had anything like this that was so nice and well thought out the entire product like the presentation the aesthetics the packaging just the whole vibe of the company like I'm like level 10 impressed and like I said I'm not getting anything out of this I've been that guy that's looking for something and don't know what to get I've been him many times and if I can help anyone out I'll do it, you will not be sorry if you get this keyboard.

Note: I'm not a mechanical keyboard enthusiast. My review is based on my own personal experience. For starters, I really like the RK yellow switches that come with this keyboard. It has a nice tactile feel on all buttons and the sound that each keypress produces is satisfying to my ears. I am currently using this plugged in, but I have also tried the 2.4G wireless mode and it was also good. What I am really impressed by with this keyboard though is how compact it is for the 96 key form factor. After daily driving my DROP TKL keyboard for a few years, I was surprised to find that this is almost the same size as that keyboard. The switches are hot-swappable, so you can replace them with most of the 3 pin or 5 pin mechanical switches out there. As for some of the drawbacks, the wrist rest is not great and should either be replaced with a good quality one (like the GMK wooden wrist rest) or just not used entirely. The build quality of this keyboard is not as premium as my DROP keyboard, but that's a given considering the price and it doesn't feel like cheap plastic was used here. Overall, I'm actually quite pleased with this keyboard. I would recommend this as a great starter mechanical keyboard.

I was slow to get on the mechanical keyboard train. I used a regular old Logitech keyboard for more than a decade before someone finally gifted me one for Christmas. Now, that doesn't mean I'm not really picky about my keyboards. One, I like the function buttons right on top of the number buttons. Not in sets of 4 like most keyboards... directly above is the way I prefer. That already eliminates a lot of keyboards. Two, I want a number keypad - it just makes some things easier. That eliminates even more. Royal kludge brand was really one of the few that offered mechanical keyboards fitting my two pre-requisites. I ended up trying more than one mechanical keyboard because I really don't understand the "colors" or what it really means in practice. I tried the light green one and that was way too "clicky." You had to really press down for the key to register. The other one I tried (gifted to me for Christmas) was way too sensitive - you breathed on a key and it entered. I'm a fast typer; as such, I can't have keys pressing willy nilly whenever my finger happens to graze the top of it. This one... was the perfect in between. Not too sensitive but easy to depress the key. It is my new gaming keyboard - I have found the one! This comes with a wrist rest, which attaches magnetically. Given how high this keyboard is, the wrist rest is absolutely necessary. The coloring is beautiful though, as well as the backlight. Very happy with this purchase - perfect for my Genshin and FF14. I can use it for office work as well.

I've had this keyboard for 2 years, here are all the pros and cons Pros - Great Rgb Backlighting. Keycaps are not shine through but they are great quality, RGB is great but not over the top honestly a perfect amount of lighting for both gaming/office use. -Great switches and typing feel. Smooth and linear and sounds very nice. Great feel for long session typing. Amazing keycaps. I love the color and the feel the keyboard has on your fingers. -Pros/Cons (depends on prefrence) -Wristrest is plastic. I love wristrests and was looking for a royal kludge plush wrest add on but found i couldnt find one. Hopefully they add one. You cannot use a generic wriest rest because the arrow keys slightly protrude out. -Keyboard case is plastic. I do wish they would add a metal or aluminum blackplate to the keyboard housing for the price but if you dont mind the case is still great quality. -Software is kinda junky, but it didnt really matter for me because they had so many lighting effets and colors built into the keyboad that i didnt really need to downlowed it anyways -Cons I would give this a 5 star except for this one major issue. After about a year my keyboard started acting funny. The input on the 2.4 ghz dongle sometimes made the keys double tap or just not register at all. It went from 30 seconds sometimes to about 15 minutes about a year after the problem started occouring. It got unsuable and i had to buy another keyboard. The log roller as they call it sometimes does not move the volume up or down. You have to turn it slowly in order for it to register. Conclusion - Overall decent value for the money. Just wish that they made a few upgrades here and there but i would say only worth it when you catch it on sale.

First impressions: good quality build, the keyboard really doesn’t feel cheap at all to me. It’s got a good weight to it and looks sleek (matches my “ocean” theme perfectly). The typing is soooo nice, it’s got that milky sound to the keys which is my absolute favorite. It’s super easy to use / set up, and the RBG brightness is good as well. Lots of options and the manual explains how to easily change through the presets. But my first impression of this product is that it’s very well made and so far it seems to be a great keyboard for the price! Very happy with this.

Edit: See below for original review. This paragraph is a one-year update. Keyboard has been mostly flawless since I received the replacement, but the battery now lasts about a week. I had returned my original RK keyboard because it did not hold a charge, and this one was good most of the year, but now I have to plug it in weekly. Again, not a major thing since it's on a desktop PC, but I have a Logitech K780 from 2021 that I have only had to replace the (non-rechargeable) batteries a couple times. I know rechargeable batteries do not have a long shelf life, but I was hoping for two to three years before I had to leave it constantly plugged in. The first one I received would not hold a charge. RK worked with me to troubleshoot but it was just a bad battery. They easily replaced it and the new one is perfect. I would not recommend it for gaming because it does not always register my keystrokes, but I really like it all around. (I still use it for gaming but I notice sometimes I hit a key and it doesn’t respond.) I don’t like that the lighting is behind the keys which can obscure the white writing on the keyboard. Makes it harder to see the keys. Would have like lit up letters on the keyboard. Volume control works great. Many lighting patterns if you’re into that kind of thing. Heavy and seems well made. Nice wrist rest. Overall nice keyboard

I love this keyboard, the typing feel is very pleasant, and this 90% layout is great for those of us who use the numeric keyboard a lot but want something more compact than the full keyboard

It's a great keyboard and a pleasure to type but it has some noticeable issues and inconveniences that shouldn't be there. Pros: Inexpensive mechanical, wireless keyboard -rgb lighting is dope and customizable -connectivity options include wired, Bluetooth, and wireless usb that comes with keyboard -built quality is pretty good -I love how this keyboard includes the number pad in the bottom right corner. Cons: -There is really one noticeable con that bothers me. It's issues with software, sometimes I can't detect the keyboard when using the software unless it's plugged in (won't show up when using Bluetooth). If you accidentally press the wrong thing on keyboard or update software, this can totally disable your keyboard to where it doesn't work at all if you disconnect it early by accident when it's updating. Sometimes the Bluetooth won't work, and the keys won't work, and I only had this keyboard for a few days now and I already had to look up repeatedly how to deal with these keyboard issues, nevertheless, I like it well enough to where I won't return it as I know what to look out for, so it doesn't lock up on me again. So overall, it's a great keyboard but it needs some Software work for it to earn 5 stars from me. Thank you for reading my review.

I use it around a year and it's great performance,charge stay long and beautiful rgb

I've bought this after some research, and have overall been very happy with it. The colors are very vibrant, and the built-in effects are very nice. They can be customized via software to an extent, but I'll talk about that later. The default switches have a satisfying feel, overall a nice typing experience. They don't require a lot of force to push in, and trigger very fast, so it's great for gaming. Disassembly is user-friendly, easy component swaps with hot swap and cleaning. The package comes with a Keycap and Switch Puller, which is a neat addition. The keyboard is very sturdy, and doesn't feel too cheap, even with its plastic case. It has a nice weight to it, but isn't too heavy to take on travelling. The Extendable feet are stable and provide a comfortable typing angle. The sound is really nice for the price point. Not overly loud, would probably work in an office space, but does have a little bit of 'thock' to it. Cable Connectivity is great, but the 2.4G connection does have a noticeable bit of latency and occasionally drops letters when going through a desk. Bluetooth however is moderate at best, and takes a while to connect. I wouldn't recommend running this wirelessly when cables are an option. While looking very nice, the default keycaps are prone to visible fingerprints and glossiness and require regular cleaning. Ergonomically, the keyboard is questionable, the hand rest is definitely not the most comfortable, but I haven't had any real issues with typing for extended amounts of time. The software is functional, however... I've spent more than 15 minutes figuring out which software is the right one; The download page has been updated since then, though, and it does give you the right software on the first try now. The software works, but is far behind something like ICUE or similar. Defining macros is cumbersome, and the "Real Time Lighting" is very slow and doesn't really convey a smooth effect. I'd recommend sticking to the built-in ones. The keyboard also doesn't support SignalRGB, which is a bummer but not a dealbreaker. In summary, this keyboard stands out for its build quality, especially for the price. It's great for people who type a lot, and for the price is a great base board for enthusiasts who would like to customize it further.
