Mechanical Gaming Keyboard,Rii K61C USB Wired 104keys Anti-ghosting Mechanical Programmable Gaming Keyboard,Blue Switches with 3 Macro Keys,Red LED Illuminated Backlit for PC, Windows and Mac (K61C)

At first glance the keyboard looks great, but almost every single key on the bottom row (and the top row! and the del/end/pagedown keys!) pops itself off in 3 to 5 presses in normal usage.This is caused by a poor fit between the switch stems and the keycap. This allows allows the return spring force to literally eject the keycap off of the stem if your finger slides off the edge bottom edge at the bottom of the key press.I've owned four other mechanical keyboards, and have not had this issue with any of them.I've attached a photo of one key that's about to pop itself off from pressing it a few times, and several other keycaps that have already ejected themselves.This is not a good start to the first 10 minutes of ownership.

The keyboard has a "mechanical" sound and feel. However, keys are easily fell off. Additionally, the layout is a bit different than other keyboards, such as, the Backslash key is located next to the "double quote" key and Enter key, so when you hit Enter key, you will most likely hit the Backslash key (see photo). On other keyboards, the Backslash key is usually located under "Back Space" key, and above the Enter key.For phone and tablet holder, if you have thick case, it won't fit in.Also, I received the keyboard with keys fell off.2 stars for look and feel. Not recommended.

This keyboard is super solid for the price. The illumination is very bright. Perfect for typing in the dark, or low light. That being said, as other reviews have noted, it is LOUD. ("How loud can a keyboard be?" I asked myself when ignoring those reviews.) LOUDER THAN YOU WOULD IMAGINE A KEYBOARD COULD BE. Like, so loud it would honestly wake up someone sleeping in the same room. It is SUPER haptic and "clicky" - and the space bar makes a doing-y spring sound. It feels quite like a manual typewriter. (I guess that's good for gamers?) Also: several reviews mentioned "white light" or "blue light" so I thought the "red" LED could be switched to white. It cannot. It is all-red-all-the time. You CAN change the brightness of the light. You can also create some groovy, flash-y light patterns using FN + PrtSc. (Why? Who needs this?) **NOT recommended for anyone prone to seizures.** It is also super COMPACT. At only 14 inches wide it is shorter than average 17 inch keyboards. Depth is 7 inches. Nice for a small desk or even lap tying. Note that it has NO "calculator number pad" on the right side, which helps shorten its width. Cell phone slot above the FN keys is handy. Overall, I am very pleased for the price. In a perfect world it would be a little (or a lot) quieter with a white/blue LED option. But for $22 I can't complain. It's a great little keyboard - just be warned - it WILL wake the baby.

Wow, this is a great keyboard for the price! It has a nice sturdiness to it, the backlighting options are good enough for what I needed and I like the feel of the keys. I am not picky about the switch color/type, as I have been using a keyboard with Blue switches for a while now and didn't know or care. With the fact that the switches are more focused on in current mechanical keyboard listings, I looked mine up on Amazon to find out what kind of switches it has, as a point of reference.I took a chance and bought this one and also the one with green backlighting - I don't normally buy two of something like this to first assure I am going to like it. Sadly, that cost me $12 in return shipping because I missed something when looking at the keyboard layout, something I didn't even know I had to look for anymore... The dreaded double-height Enter key with the backslash key on its left :( I didn't even notice it until I started using the keyboard and kept getting a backslash instead of Enter, because my habit/routine is to hit Enter on its left side. I first started looking at the Rii RK902 keyboard (which has the Enter key the way I like it) but I didn't like the Silver/Black layout and ended up on this one and must have assumed it was the same.I briefly tested the keyboard and could find nothing functionally wrong with it, so if you are OK with the fat Enter key & displaced backslash key, I can fully recommend it.

I'm a computer person by trade with multiple computers per each trade, and needing to upgrade my "franken" keyboard situation (not one keyboard in my arsenal was matching) lead me on a search to get matching 4 keyboards to replace everything with.Knowing what I like mostly about all of my random keyboards (heavy duty metal housing, mechanical clicky blue switch for the tactile/audible feedback) my search results were put into Amazon and POW low and behold is this thing of cost-effective beauty!Now I know people say "you get what you pay for" and yes this sturdy, well built, hefty, flashy light blinking keyboard (at a quantity of 4 in my case) was a chance I was willing to take!They shipped and in a day they were at my door- I got them all plugged in and was ready to rock! But wait... there's more!Two of the keyboards clicked louder and better than Dorthy's Ruby Red Slippers (A+, 5 star rating on those)... while the other two felt like I was pressing the keys down into a dead sponge :/I thought I would do some spelunking and as I turned each keyboard to it's side I could see that two of the keyboards had the "blue switch" as the title of the product says, while the other two had what seems to be "red switches"... and what two keyboards felt like I was clicking into a sponge? The red ones :(I contacted Amazon, and two replacements are on their way as of now 12/2/19... but from what I can tell all 4 keyboards were shipped in the same packaging, with nothing to tell apart the 2- blue switch and the 2- red switch... so fingers crossed the 2 replacements shipping my way are correct!I'll post an update after the replacements come in, so stay tuned! Same Bat-Time, Same Bat-Channel! :D
