I'm new to this kind of keyboards, but it sounds and works exactly like I wanted and expected, perfect for me as it is, and you still get to change the switches with no effort. Probably the lack of simple software is the only complain
Overall a good keyboard its just that i'd like to see more rgbs in the keyboard for example, Purple Pink Cyan.
Amazing build quality and sound. The colorway I purchased makes my build look so much cleaner
Such a great keyboard for the price I definitely recommend
Perfectly well done keyboard, love how it’s wireless and has such amazing features. Definitely a must have.
Solid keyboard. Would have liked to see it come with pudding caps. Also would have been great is the keyboard lights had more advanced customization. Still a good keyboard, but not great.
Love my keyboard. Great click sound, knob is great, a lot of functionality I haven’t even tapped into yet!
I liked this keyboard. Very beautiful, soft for typing and cool modes for backlighting this keyboard. But.. there are no keys for replacement under mac os system although there is such mode and it works perfectly
Generally good experience all-round (especially the layout!) with a few caveats.
1. Space bar is loud enough that my partner complained from two rooms away, which they've never done about any of my other blue switch keyboards.
2. Blue switches have a slightly higher operating force than I'm used to (but I can always swap those out).
3. Max backlight brightness is lower than I'd like, making the keys hard-ish to read at peak daylight.
edit: RKGaming's support reached out to me with suggestions. No magical fixes, but the aftercare is appreciated!
The RK N80 Low Profile is a great keyboard. Solid build, nice to type on, and overall really good quality. It’s a pleasure to work with. Switching to different devices is smooth and nice. Battery is also a plus, allows to work for several days without charging with lights on. The only downside I’ve noticed is that the key legends aren’t transparent, so the backlighting doesn’t actually help with visibility at night. Not a dealbreaker, but it would’ve been a nice touch. Still, a solid choice if you’re looking for a quality mechanical keyboard, strongly recommend.
Board is built well. I love every aspect of this keyboard with the exception of the software.
There is an issue with the board's RGB not working when your computer sleeps or is power cycled. It will only resolve the issue when you unplug and plug the keyboard back in. Minor annoyance, but this is a $100 board and should not have glaring issues like this.
The underglow RGB is separate from the main board RGB and you cannot change color of it. Want all red lights to match the rest of your set up? Too bad. The main board can be red, but the RGB under glow will stay the default rainbow color. You can't even just turn off the underglow. It's either all lights on or nothing at all.
Everything else about this board is fantastic though. I cannot understate how much I like this keyboard, but the glaring software issues on a $100 keyboard cannot be overlooked.
Received as a free add-on from their site BUT I am very happy with their performance! The sound, feel, and RGB pass-through strips at the bottom are very nice! I ended up only putting on the caps for keys commonly used by games, and the slight difference of the textures between the RK84 stock caps and these is a nice feel for gaming.
Insanely good value for the money. Well built, sounds good, plays amazingly well, and the RGB is a lot more impressive than expected. 10/10 will be buying from RK again. They also even threw in a free key cap box set when purchased directly from them!
boyfriend had a similar one before, bought this as a replacament when he wracked his old one. the keyboard is great, he said hes very pleased with it, so 🤷♀️ taking his word for it here
This keyboard is magical to type on, the thock is unreal. Especially love with my peaches and cream caps!
Received my first ever mechanical keyboard and I can say, this is the best!
Keyboard is very pleasant sounding with great rgb and many other features. However, it has some shortcomings:
Wired mode doesn't work with USB 2.0 port;
Keycap font is a little inconsistent;
Some buttons press in harder while spacebar presses in too easy - resulting in accidental clicks.
Regardless I will be keeping this keyboard as it's features is what I was looking for myself and the price is fairly good.
To be fair this is my first foray into mechanical keyboards. A coworkers mechanical made me want this feel. Then I spent hands-on time learning and testing switches at MicroCenter. I'm not a gamer, but an ambidextrous mouse user and wanted a narrow width in a mechanical keyboard. I love the blue switches. I love the back lighting. Great build quality.
