Review: Good buy in 2026f - Not a bad keyboard, even in 2026. As long as the noise levels isn't a dealbreaker with you, the switches sound good and the keyboard is responsive. This keyboard is known for being a reliable tank, at a good price. The stabs aren't bad, maybe it's masked by the blue switch noise. Colors are nice and bright. It's a excellent buy for 30$, but once over 40, I'd advice looking into the Aula F75, especially if you aren't into Clicky switches, as the Aula doesn't provide anything other than Linear options but those linear options are better than the linear option for the redragon k552. Keyboard is a buy it and it just works.
Review: Redragon K552 - I had been contently using basic keyboards for years at work and home, without a second thought. Then, a few weeks ago, a colleague introduced me to the world of mechanical keyboards. At first I thought it was a little bit stupid that this was even a thing to be excited about. But immediately after talking to that person, I knew I needed to have one. This is why Prime exists - It was a purchase that couldn't wait. I always liked the feeling of those old school IBM keyboards. I'm not much of a gamer, but I do use a keyboard all day long for work - programming, writing documents, endlessly revising wording in controversial emails, etc - so why not invest in a keyboard that makes me a little happier during that time? I chose this keyboard because it had the clicky blue switches, looked solid, had nice RGB, was tenkeyless, and had an overall good reputation. I was not disappointed when I received it. It feels very satisfying to type on. The tenkeyless form factor is perfect for me - I had never used num pads, but would find it frustrating not to have dedicated arrows, function keys, and Insert / Home / etc they way they are here. With the RGB, I find myself sticking to the mode where all keys are one static color. The flashy effects are distracting to me, but might be inspiring to some folks. The typing angle is comfortable with or without the legs extended, but the keyboard slides around the table a bit without them. There was another very similar Redragon keyboard (Visnu) that I was also considering. I went with the Kumura because it has a more compact form factor. Now that I've been sucked into the mechanical keyboard world, here's what I think I would change. (Many other reviewers have already mentioned all of these things). The keyboard has a little bit too much of a "gamer" look to it, partly due to the font of the keycaps. It sounds like PBT keycaps have a nicer feel to them than the stock ABS ones anyway, so I would consider swapping to a custom set at some point. The raised Redragon logo is also a little bit too "gamer" looking too - I noticed that some other Redragon keyboards have a more subtle logo. A detachable cable, and maybe Bluetooth, would be nice too. I enjoy the clicky switches a lot, but am curious to try tactile but non-clicky switches which are apparently a little less obnoxious in an office environment. (Like many folks, I have been working from home during COVID). Maybe I would go with a white keyboard too. Overall, I think the Kumura succeeds in being a very nice entry into mechanical keyboards. It was under $40 when I purchased it. In retrospect, I would also have considered something like the Ajazz K870T, which is about $60 but has the features left on my wish list. But then again, $60 sounded like it was out of my price range at that point. UPDATE Here's an update after three years. This keyboard is still my daily driver, and I have modded it a bit. - Rubbed out the logo on the front of the keyboard with an eraser. - After about year one, I swapped out the stock keycaps for a set of Matcha PBT dye subs with ZDA profile (ASIN: B08QJGH5VT). These were about $38. - About 1.5 years later, I swapped out the clicky blue switches for Akko Jelly Blacks (ASIN: B09K7QX9QK). These are linear with a bit of resistance, and are compatible with the Outemu sockets in the board. It costed about $34 for two boxes of switches. - I lubed the switches and stabilizers with the lube from this kit (ASIN: B09YLLVGX4). - I added a slab of mass-loaded vinyl to the case to dampen some of the case noise. This also makes the keyboard much heavier, which I prefer. A 12" x 12" square of MLV costed about $10. I have enjoyed tinkering with the keyboard and trying various mods suggested on YouTube. One particular channel that inspired me is Consumer Tech Review. The look, sound, and feel has changed substantially from the stock setup. Especially with the clicky actuation gone, most of the sound comes from keys bottoming out and feel comes from the anticipation of them bottoming out from when they are pressed. The Matcha keycaps completely change the vibe from "gamery" to "retro" / "enthusiast". The RGB doesn't shine through these, but it does show up in the gaps between keys which is good enough for me. It's kind of stupid, but the sensory experience of the keyboard makes working just a little bit more pleasurable, and it's been interesting to vary the experience through the customizations. The budget TKL market seems competitive now, but I like this one because the case is solid and the PCB has been reliable. More recent keyboards include things like gaskets to improve the feel and layers of foam to improve the sound. I'm curious to see what kind of differences those things make in person, but I am also trying to avoid blowing too much money on this stuff. The main thing on my wish list would be a detachable USB cable. It appears possible to do that by soldering and making some alterations to the case, so that's an option.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can you customize the lighting? Can you pregram different colors?**
A: To a degree, yes. You can customize each individual key color (Yellow, Blue, Light Blue, Red, Pink/Purple (looks pink to me), Green, and White) by pressing FN+End twice then pressing the key you want to change to the color you prefer. You can also get a few additional colors (whole board) by pressing FN+Insert and letting it cycle to the color you want (this provides more color/shade options than the main colors listed earlier -- press FN+Insert again to pause on a color. FN+Page Up will cycle the colors across the keyboard and allow for some gradient color patterns on the board -- press FN+Page Up again to pause a gradient). FN+Delete will cycle a rainbow effect across the keyboard which you can also pause if you'd like a static gradient of colors flowing from one side to the other, you can also leave them animated. FN+Home will animate the colors moving from inside (around the J key) outward on the board -- I don't seem to be able to pause it. FN+Page Down looks like it turns the keys off but when you hit a key it will light up -- pressing Fn+Page Down again changes the color. The only color set you can fully customize and "program" to stay the way you set them is the FN+End individual key customization, the others will revert to their normal function upon restart. For example, my QWEASD and number keys are set to Red, my F1-F12, space bar, arrow keys set to White, and the rest set to Light Blue. This color combination has remained stored in the keyboard even after unplugging it from my computer. Brightness is controlled with FN+Up or Down arrow keys. Speed of animated cycles is FN+ the +/- keys. For anyone wondering, the Vara K551-RGB and the Kumara K552-RGB appear to share the same colors/settings, the only difference is the number pad.

**Q: What is the different between rainbow and RGB backlight?**
A: "RGB has programmable lights (any color) but rainbow cannot be changed. Rainbow is only the colors shown in the picture, in that order. Rainbow cannot be changed. RGB can be changed."
Whats the difference between the rgb and rainbow? - Amazon ...

**Q: Is there a headphone jack?**
A: No. We plug headphones into computer.

**Q: Are the key switches replaceable?**
A: Yes they are. You can hot swap the switches with other Outemu key switches.
