SMOOTH CONSISTENT & SUPER SATISFYING Give your keyboard a tactile feel like never before with the Massdrop Halo Switch Pack Developed by Jacob Alexander these custom switches combine the best attributes of quiet and clicky switches which results in near perfect consistency and smoothness with each keypress The switches come preloaded and offer an interesting pop during activation—similar to the force curve found in Topres And because heavy tactile switches have been a huge hit over the years both the Halo Trues and Clears are nice and heavy The Halo Clears emulate Cherry MX Clear switches while the Halo Trues better match the original vision of mechanical Topre switches See the specs below for specific measurements

amazon.com

r/Keyboard

r/MechanicalKeyboards

  Topre is a switch which provides a pronounced bump at reasonable actuation forces: 45g and 55g. Halo clears being a 60g actuation with a 78g bottom out force makes it very tiring to type on. I am a person who likes to bottom out as they type, especially coming from Topre which has a very satisfying bottom out sound and feel to compliment its tactility.  When I type on Halo Clears, its a very forceful and tiring experience for me as I am attempting to bottom out but am circumvented by the spring force alone

Not the Best Tactile on the Market, but Solid Nonetheless

These keyswitches are the best of both worlds. Impressively tactile, but not too loud! Exactly what I needed for the office.

Love the sound and feel!

RTINGS

Like the Keychron K10, the ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 also lacks companion software. It also lacks dedicated arrow keys and a Numpad since it's a compact (60%) keyboard. What it does have is a light weight and tiny footprint that makes it a great companion for any on-the-go work you need it for. Plus, it's a wireless unit that supports multi-device pairing with up to three devices using Bluetooth, so you don't have to worry about any cables except for its charging cable. However, with a 10-hour battery life, it'll give you enough juice to last the workday.

Impressively, this cheap little unit has a hot-swappable printed circuit board, meaning you can pull out the stock switches and replace them with any switch you want to control how your keyboard feels and sounds during use. Plus, with a hot-swappable PCB, you can replace broken or malfunctioning switches without soldering anything. You can buy a few different variants of this keyboard with different wireless connectivity options and backlighting colors, meaning you can save a bit more money if you don't care about RGB lighting or having a USB receiver.

If you need a good cheap keyboard for coding, we recommend the ROYAL KLUDGE RK61. Despite its cheap price point, this compact keyboard has a hot-swappable printed circuit board, meaning you can easily replace the stock switches with your preferred switch. It's an extremely versatile unit, connecting with multiple devices over Bluetooth, or you can get a variant that includes a USB receiver if you're planning on using it in a noisier Bluetooth environment, like an office.

Similar to the Obinslab Anne Pro 2, the battery life on the RK61 is on the lower side, maxing out at around 10 hours when used wirelessly. Fortunately, it also includes a USB-A to USB-C charging cable, and you can use the keyboard while it charges. It's important to note that there are a few different variants of this keyboard available; some, like the unit we tested, only have Bluetooth connectivity and single-color backlighting, while other variants include a USB receiver and RGB backlighting.

For writers, your keyboard is the tool of the trade, but sometimes high-quality or premium options fall a bit too far out of the price range. That's why we recommend the ROYAL KLUDGE RK61. This solidly built unit offers everything a writer needs right at their fingertips for a wallet-friendly price. As it's a compact unit, it's perfectly suited for writers on the go, as it's lightweight and portable. It also easily fits into tight working spaces, like libraries or cafes.

In addition to its good overall build quality, this keyboard comes in a ton of different variants with slightly different features. You can get a hot-swappable variant, so you can change out the stock switches to get the typing experience you want. Plus, the connectivity of this keyboard is excellent. You can pair it with up to three devices using Bluetooth, use it wired, or get a variant with a USB receiver to use the keyboard pretty much anywhere and with any device.

Although its latency isn't nearly as low as the wired latency of the Obinslab Anne Pro 2, and its build quality isn't as high as the Corsair K65 RGB MINI, the ROYAL KLUDGE RK61 is your best bet for a cheap compact board. It's well-suited for casual gamers or on-the-go professionals looking for a tiny board to use both at home and the office.

Surprisingly, for a cheap board, it has a hot-swappable printed circuit board, meaning you can swap out the stock switches with any mechanical switches of your choice to get a more customized and tailored typing experience. It's a great choice if you're just getting into keyboards since it's a cheap way to test out what switches you like without spending a small fortune. Plus, it comes in several different variants that offer various wireless connectivity options, backlighting options, and sizes, so you'll surely find the version that works best for you.

 The lights shine brighter than my N-Pro and are on par with most high quality keyboards. You can control the animation, color, speed and brightness with onboard controls and you get a good variety of colors and animations and whites look great too. This keyboard can also be used wirelessly over Bluetooth. By hitting function and tab, you can switch from wireless to wired mode back and forth without unplugging the keyboard

 Also, they're double-shots, so legends won't wear out over time. And the material they use is translucent, so it will let light shine through. Unfortunately, closed-shade characters have slits, but that's quite common in budget keycaps. Then, all keys accessible with the function key are laser-etched, so these might wear off after some time

 So that wraps it up for today's video. Feel free to link me to other budget keyboards you'd like me to check out down below. I'm always on the lookout for these gems that offer the most value at the lowest price. So as always, I'll have an affiliate link to this keyboard in the description, so if you're interested, feel free to use that link and help the channel at the same time

 It has double-shot keycaps, backlight LEDs, with some versions being RGB, and it can connect over Bluetooth. Now, this keyboard has been available for over two years, so the question is, is it still worth it in 2020? Well, let's see if it's the case. So, this keyboard comes in a brown branded box. In it, you get the unit itself, then a rubberized micro-USB cable and a keycap spooler

Royal Kludge RK61 60% Mechanical Keyboard - YouTube

 Somewhere along the way I got more and more into custom keyboards and have kind of lost sight of the benefits of those budget priced pre-built boards. As much as I praised the GK61 back in the day, you wouldn't catch me using it at all now. Well today I want to put my bias aside and go back to my roots and take a look at a popular budget gaming keyboard for what it is. Today I'm reviewing one of the most requested keyboards on this channel, the Royal Clutch RK61

 There is a link to download software and I did download and install it but it is literally just a program that has nothing more than a picture of the keyboard, a couple of icons that will link you to the manufacturer's website and store, and that's it. It does nothing. Don't even bother to download it. That all said I really don't think you need it if you're buying a board like this

 They do admittedly feel a little mushy at times, like there's some ever so slight resistance when bottoming out, but it's not terrible. The stabilizers aren't perfect but they sound a lot better than a lot of other similar boards in this price range. I've even had a couple custom boards that I built where the stock stabilizers included with that build did not sound as good as these do. It's weird, I don't understand it, but whatever Royal Clutch is doing over there they need to teach everyone else to do

 Well today I want to put my bias aside and go back to my roots and take a look at a popular budget gaming keyboard for what it is. Today I'm reviewing one of the most requested keyboards on this channel, the Royal Clutch RK61. This was sent to me for review, but as always my opinion is my own. And I'll say right now, I would not buy this keyboard for myself and that's simply because with the keyboards I mainly use, I wouldn't need it

Royal Kludge RK61 Review 2021 - Is it worth it?? - YouTube

I picked my Royal Kludge RK100 up for $80, it's usually $90 but there was a coupon that popped up on amazon. For $80, I couldn't be *too* upset about the lack of dissasembly options and the raised LEDs, but had I known that was the situation, I likely would have just gotten a Keychron K4 instead for a little bit more.

Upgrading the stabilizers and keycaps are almost a must for this keyboard and really improve it quite a bit. I went a step further and got Durock Daybreak silent linears to swap in since I knew I needed to quiet the keeb a bit and wasn't about to pay >$1/switch for Zeal silent anything. 

2nd custom keeb that I got for my workdesk. I wanted something with a numpad and the USB passthrough was nice so I could use a wireless mouse.



Overall, the board feels solid, no flex, pretty hefty, and has some pretty useful features, though it falls short a bit for a keyboard enthusiast.



It features hotswap switched, only comes with the blue backlighting but supposedly there will be a full RGB version down the road. Hopefully that will include some tweaks as there are a few things I took issue with.



Firstly, it cannot be dissasembled. I know some other Royal Kludge boards have guides walking you through how to take it apart, however this one has no such guide and the screws securing the plate to the case are not all accessible. There are a couple points where there's obviously a standoff, but the screw was welded over or soldered over, making this keyboard impossible to fix if you end up breaking a hotswap socket, and completely prevents any sound dampening from being added.



That being said, the case sounds very solid out of the box, though the stabs are complete trash- too much play in the housing on the stabilizers. The keycaps are quite thin and do not block the back light at all despite not being "shine-through" keycaps- sort of like holding a bright flashlight up to you fingers, you'll see the keycap stem and supports underneath.

Unfortunately, this keyboard has raised SMD LEDs. The Keychron K2 hotswap does not, and that was my first keyboard, so I didn't even think about it when I purchased the Royal Kludge RK100. This meant that the bottom housing of the Durck switches was incompatible- but I didn't want to buy another set of switches and let these gather dust, so I frankenswitched them with the Gateron Reds that came with the board, using only the Gateron bottom housing so they would fit in the board. I also lubed&filmed the switched which gave them a very snug fit.

Pros:
- cost
- heft
- relatively quiet case
- connectivity (bluetooth, 2.4ghz, and wired)
- USB passthrough (wired mode only)



Cons:
- cannot dissasemble for modification or repair
- thin keycaps
- rattly stabilizers
- raised SMD leds
- ONLY in blue backlit option (at the moment)
- no layout customization


Really, if you are gentle when installing switches, and dont intend to do anything more than swap keycaps, stabs, and switches, then the Royal Kludge RK100 is okay. If you want to modify the board in any other way though, from painting, to sound dampening, or repair the hotswap sockets, you'll be SOL on this one. Overall, 3/5, it's okay if you don't need to take it a part OR if you really need the USB pass through on a budget. Otherwise, I'd recommend something else entirely.


I mainly wanted to get this review out because the Amazon reviews just hype it up for more than it is, and there's not any information on the raised SMD LEDs, the inability to disassemble, or the like. Hopefully I've mentioned the board enough to have it come up in search if any enthusiasts need more info on this keyboard.

Royal Kludge RK100, Durock Daybreak Silent Linears, KAT PBT

Today I am reviewing the Royal Kludge 61. This keyboard seems to have a lot going for it. An entry level price at forty-five dollars, mechanical switches, backlighting, and Bluetooth. Let’s see how it holds up in real world use though

 Other than the outrageously horrible examples I provided above the rest of the layout is all but standard and is simple to use.

 The keyboard comes with blue Jixian switches. They have a satisfying click and tactile bump. The pitch is much higher than my buckling spring keyboard, but also much lighter. I would say that they are smooth enough for general use

 Things I noticed right off the bat. First, it is much heavier and more premium feeling than I expected. Second, the leds are brighter than I expected. Third, the switches feel okay for a keyboard of this price

A Keyboard Enthusiast's Opinion:

 So this is the RK61 Wireless RGB Mechanical Keyboard. It comes in either white or black, and it's one of the highest rated 60% keyboards on Amazon. This is basically the keyboard everyone gets when they can't afford something like the Ducky One 2 Mini, but we're going to see if it's actually worth it. So these come in either blue, brown or red switches, and the manufacturers of these switches are Kailh

 Speaking of lighting, you can customize the keyboard using the software, which is actually surprisingly good. You can even set up macros, disable certain keys from gaming mode, and customize the lighting on here. They have a bunch of really cool effects to choose from and the best part is that you can customize each key individually to any color you want. You can even customize the speed and the direction of the animation on certain effects

 So the back plate is made out of plastic with minimal flex, and the keycaps don't experience a lot of wobbling, except for the space bar and the shift key, which have some rattling present. Other than that, the build quality is great. Now the keycaps on these are made out of ABS plastic instead of PBT. However, they are using double shot injection method, which means that the legends on them won't fade over time

The RK61 is the next best choice if you don't want to buy a premium 60% RGB Wireless Keyboard.

The Best Budget 60% RGB Keyboard - RK61 Review - YouTube

  Initial Impressions: Things I noticed right off the bat. First, it is much heavier and more premium feeling than I expected. Second, the leds are brighter than I expected. Third, the switches feel okay for a keyboard of this price

 However, the click sound was higher pitched and the switch didn’t feel quite as stable, but still very usable. I had a few family, friends, and coworkers test this keyboard and tell me their opinions. Some have used mechanical keyboards some haven’t. Generally, they liked it and said it felt and sounded good

 An entry level price at forty-five dollars, mechanical switches, backlighting, and Bluetooth. Let’s see how it holds up in real world use though.  Initial Impressions: Things I noticed right off the bat. First, it is much heavier and more premium feeling than I expected

Hey guys, I'm new to mechanical keyboards. I purchased around a year ago the Royal Kludge RK61 for a cheap price and I'm looking to replace it for a keyboard with better quality, the RK61 has quite the horrible layout for developers in my opinion and wobbly keycaps which are my main issues. I am a software developer so I'm mainly looking for a keyboard that is good for typing, don't really care about gaming, or RGB colors and stuff like that.

Would love to find something below 100$ and I was told about the Durgod K320 which is 84$ (A friend offered me his used one for 60$ with blue switches, thinking about that).

I'm looking for a mechanical keyboard, that is both wireless and wired (USB-C, does not matter whether BT/2.4GHz), can be powered with AA batteries. Needs to have some (any) sort of ISO layout, prefferably with brown switches. Backlighting would be nice to have, altough would not be a deal-breaker if its not there (also do not care about RGB). Would be nice if it would not break the bank, but that a lot to ask, I know.

Hey everybody, I'm looking to get a mechanical keyboard, but I'm overwhelmed with all the names and such of everything. Where is a good place to get started?

I need buying help with silent gaming keyboards. I've used corsair k70 cherry mx red for about 3-4 years and the keys start to pop out frequently. I really liked this keyboard and think it's worth to buy it again but I also want to try out a new one. What keyboards do you recommend?

Does anyone know of any numpads I can buy that go well with with a space gray Drop ALT? e.g. the base is a similar or complimentary color.
