RK RKS70 Wireless Mechanical Keyboard - 75% RGB, Hot Swappable for Gaming & Office (Win/Mac)

Ok, just the name "Royal Kludge" had me wondering if I should buy it. I had never hear of them but, my options were few and far between for a TKL/Split ergo mechanical keyboard with hot swap switches. It seems that NO ONE targets the market of people that really need split/ergo keyboard and mechanical for an affordable price.TLDR> If you are looking for something to replace Microsoft Sculpt/natural style keyboard, you want mechanical with hotswap switches, but you don't want to spend $200+, this IS the keyboard for you. Buy it. Some reviewers are upset that the keyboard goes to sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity, it's not a big deal really. Click any key and it's awake again. If it really bugs you, you can get RK to send you a new firmware so that it doesn't sleep.Pros- This is a very heavy/solid/well constructed keyboard. I was shocked at how dense and "quality" it felt when taking out out of the packaging, the packaging was also very high quality.- The brown switches that it comes with were great for typing speed and accuracy (office work). not sure what brand they are (white labeled), but they were definitely good enough for every day typing and occasional gaming.- It has three modes, wired, 2.4ghz wireless and bluetooth. I tested wired and 2.4ghz. Both seemed plenty fast and reliable. There are some cool function features in the keyboard to monitor keyboard battery life etc. But I'll mostly keep it plugged in because I want low latency and no interference issues.- The tenting system is really good for ergonomics. It's VERY sold if you use the highest setting and split the keyboard out. No issues with keyboard wobble etc. I have it sitting on a soft corsiar mat on the desk and it's perfectly solid.- The included wrist rests that are built in to the keyboard make it so much nicer to type on than those other small mechanical keyboards. Most people don't realize how bad the ergo is on smaller mechanical keyboards that don't have a wrist rest like this one. It's solid, part of the frame, and doesn't wobble at all. Great design.- Price was great. I think with a coupon on amazon I paid about $79. This keyboard is well worth that.- Switches/frame are easy to swap or replace. Everything is very solid and easy to modify if you need to.Cons- The software was a bit hard to find but I found it nice/good enough, if you visit the RK website that is not dedicated to just gaming keyboards, you'll find the software to program the macro keys. There are two places you can download RK software, you have to find the less popular site to find the software for it. Version 4.0.5 worked with this board.- The keycaps and switches they used aren't top tier, they are middle of the road, not bad, not great. They definitely will get you buy and get you started on your mechanical keyboard journey. I found the default brown switches to have a really nice typing experience. They are very predictable, I can still type quickly with very few mistakes on the board, no issues quickly learning the layout coming from other TLK/Ergo (MS Sculpt).- The keycaps don't allow the light to shine through, so while you get really nice RGB effects and settings, if you are in the dark you can't actually see which keys you are typing on. It's not really an issue if you have lights on or natural lighting in your office. You can swap the keycaps for shine through sets for about $11.- Because this is a split keyboard, the spacebars on both sides are 3u in size. It has been very challenging to find anyone that makes aftermarket keycaps that are 3u in size, and you'd need two if you were wanting to replace the stock keycaps with something else. I believe all other keycaps on this board are easy to replace in most kits, but it's something to consider. You can always leave the spacebar with the stock caps and replace all of the other keys I suppose. It seems like once you go to a split keyboard design, it's just harder to find things for it no matter what brand it is. I think they should have probably gone with a 2.75u, much more common.Overall I can't say enough good about this keyboard for the price range. If you absolutely need a TKL/ERGO keyboard like I do for health reasons and you don't want to spend the $200+ on the other brands, this is a great buy, you won't be disappointed.
