It's kind of Ironic how they bash the headset because it feels like it will fall apart in their hands but they are actually twisting it like no other headset would be able to without breaking and it's just fine LOL! I'd say although what they went for material wise doesn't feel like it's good quality, It's not falling apart anytime soon
I have an rgb one with aluminum frame. It’s been totally fine and a mouse that works fine. Had them both for 2 years. Only reason I would change is for better software for macro control etc...
The fact that the headset can handle the way you are treating it shows that it is quite robust and won't break as easily as I would have expected. Great video :-D
The switches on the Redragon mechanical keyboards are the "Otemu" brand. I have two mechnical Redragon keyboards and I do not like their brown switches too much, the cherry mx brown is a bit better and smoother but this is subjective. The red Otemu switches however are better than their Cherry equivalent in my opinion they are much smoother than the Cherry red. However the biggest plus for me is that they have those DYI keyboards with removable switches and if you are searching for that kind of keyboard where you can just swap your switch if something goes wrong or if you just wanna try something different then this is a very good product. Actually the removing of switches works perfectly - you should have this little metal tool (you can see it on the pic 7:56) in the box for this purpose, it will not work with your fingers only. The only other keyboard that can do this is the Glorious GMMK but it is almost double the price.
The problem with the Outemu DIY is they don't take normal swappable keys from Cherry, Gateron, etc, if I remember right. There's a few other customizable boards like the Massdrop CTRL and ALT and some other custom boards like the Ergodox.
@@johnbuscher Yea, that is true. You cant put any other switch brand than Outemu which is a bit of a downer for me at least. However since then I found a new Keyboard with hotswappable switches on Aliexpress its called HexGears GK705 and that one takes all main brands of switches (it comes with kalih box by default) and it cotst only about 35$ (the only negative is the slow delivery and kinda high shipping cost ~20$).
I bought a Redragon Devarajas (RGB) as a replacement keyboard a year and a half ago while I was saving up to get something better. I was surprised when I got it, the build is so heavily engineered (basically everything is aluminum besides the keys.) so I decided to not buy anything to see how long it would last. Has been great so far and not one issue. They also comes with multiple key and even switch replacements. I read in passing that the people that make Redragon keyboards used to design switches for razer keyboards, they might not be as good as them but for the price they have hit the nail on the head in my opinion.
I have the RGB version of that keyboard (didn't buy the combo). Sure it's not made from the highest quality materials, but IT JUST WORKS. For the price it's far better than a membrane keyboard.
That keyboard is fine. I bought it a year ago on sale for 27$ on Amazon. I upgraded since. The blue keys drove my wife crazy. I switched to brown also from red dragon and I love it. The quality difference is steep from 30 to 50 dollars. The new one is aluminum rgb, less key wobble and is a joy to type on. I'd say splurge on the 50 dollar k556 rgb
I bought that Red dragon Key board for my nephew setting a PC up for him. It's not bad, but it is clicky and feels a little weird coming from my Corsair Strafe MX Silent and I have to say I like the feel and the lack of clickiness of the blue type switches. I like the feel of mechanical, but not the loud clicky ones.
I have the full size version of that keyboard. Got it as a gift, and I was pleasantly surprised. Put some corsair wasd keycaps on it, if that's your thing, and you're gtg. Haven't had any issues with it except for one of the LEDs went out, but it's back now so 🤷♂️
My son has the Harpe keyboard and the Centrophorus mouse... both working fine, though I would prefer the mechanical keyboard (I normally use a Code keyboard with Cherry clear switches). I use the mouse pad at work... works fine. And I'm currently using their Titanoboa mouse at home, though I'll probably switch to a Corsair sometime soon. Anyway it's working fine after 18 months or so. The headset looks insubstantial, but I didn't see it fall apart...actually I would have liked to see if it still worked after some more twisting and abuse. I would only call it 'low build quality' if it did fall apart or stopped working. Until that point, it's just 'budget' to me. Overall, for the money, I think Redragon provides decent value.
I have the RGB version of that keyboard it's the first mechanical keyboard I've bought, I've been using it for over a year and I'm thoroughly satisfied with it. I'm no mechanical keyboard enthusiast but it gets the job done.
My red dragon mechanical keyboard is 3 years old and still good. Though I handed it off to the rest of my family since I switched to a Vortex Racer 3. But I’d recommend the Red Dragon if you like clicky
I just got that keyboard and I had it for about 2 months. I love it more than my anne pro 2. The RGB version has the best pre set RGB I have ever had. And it's like 30 bucks. Can't be beat!!
whats funny though if i were to bend my old razer kraken usb headset like that it would of broke. I should know mine was duct taped for a year before i bought a new pair.
i wouldn't say they are fake cherrys..they are just either outemu brand or gateron brand.. i think outemu.. and a lot of the cherry switches dont actually fit in the pcb if you hto swap.. they look lik they have the same pins but they are a bit different..but you CAN pull the switches and put in red or brown outemus.. i almost bought this keyboard for that reasons only.. but then i saw you can also have hot swapping on the e-element z88 tkly or 60%.. but i ended up buying a Fnatic Mini Streak TKL RGB with cherry browns in it and love it.. the lighting is perfect and AMAZING build quality..although it was 90 USD on sale form 100USD so a bit pricey considering all the budget boards out now.
I've got two of them, one of them the red dragon. I didn't stick with it because it was a noisy blue switch which was WAY too noisy. 2/3 of the noise it the stupid key tops slapping down. Even with rubber rings to stop that, the clicks were two loud. So I switched to brown switches. Still too loud. Put on rings. Still kinda loud. Put grease on the switches. Now it's silent. Mine were all RGB.
been using the rainbow version of the k552 for a while now over 1k hours in overwatch alone with it and it just keeps chugging along. had to take the keys off and give it a good cleaning to prevent sticky switches. They use Gateron Blue switches that imo are actually just as good as their cherry counterpart. HIGHLY underrated keyboard.
@@tuberculelapatate221 this is something i was confused about because they look like gateron not outemu unless outemu makes a switch with a white housing like that, i thought they all had black housings.
Honestly I stick with Redragon because the MMO mouse I got from them for my first gaming rig is the whole reason I was able to switch to pc at first(Still using it after all these years, 6 so far). I'm not a big writer, so the keyboard I have, that you just reviewed, actually is completely adequate for me, plus the sound makes you feel productive.
I love my Redragon K550 Gaming Mechanical Keyboard, but it's $59. Has 12 programmable macro keys, RGB, and made entirely out of aluminum - it's a heavy sucker. You couldn't flex it with a sledgehammer. :)
Actually, those headphones are extremely durable for the price, which is a good thing. Most cheap headphones under $100, even from major brands, would have snapped in two, under that much punishment.
Check out the high end Red Dragon keyboard and mouse. They have some amazing peripherals. They cost a bit more than what you paid for the combo you guys got.
best value is velocifire VM01 I been using them for years , mechanical brown switches a nice compromise between tactil feedback and not having a click that's too loud like reds or blues, have 3 of there KBs and will buy a few more to shelve
You should review the redragon yama, it's a 70$ mechanical keyboard which has a lot of gimmicks like a wrist wrest, macro keys, multimedia keys and its also the only keyboard with Purple switches which I have to say I really enjoy
ME: (saw the title and its color red..) 'oh redragon huh..' i dunno but.. i remember those 'fake cherry keys' got official name.. not because they are first the others are fake.. it's not our fault if we like the 'fake' one over the 'genuine cherry keys' expensive shite.. ya know~ and.. you can get a 'full mechanical keyboard' for almost or less than 35 USD.. so definitely not worth it..
I've had/have 3 of these keyboards and have to say it's the best thing going for an inexpensive mechanical keyboard. Many employers balk heavily at a request for a > $100 mechanical keyboard (the horrible Dell keyboard they gave you should be fine right??), but generally go along with a $35 one. Just be sure your co-workers are ok with the clicky, clicky.. (which I love the feel of). I also have a >$100 legit MX-Brown keyboard and don't find it any more pleasing to use than the cheaper knock-off-blue Redragon (though it's quieter of course). I think you guys are being too harsh on this combo, sure you don't save as much, but if the other bundle didn't exist would your conclusion be the same?? I doubt it. $60 for a full peripheral setup like this is pretty cheap. Oh, and spend more time actually using the equipment instead of abusing it maybe?? FWIW, I've never had a single failure with any of these keyboards, whereas I'd go through one or two Microsoft keyboards a year (as a programmer).
can you review the rgb void headset i know its a bit more pricey but they come in 3 versions USB, USB wireless, and aux cord version, the head band looks nice quality too. it also activates the visualizer on the corsair software. and can control the lighting and settings in software, auto mutes the mic when you raise the mic up. its a great deal in my opinion ( i think the aux version don't have the software features) and yes the USB versions work on phones along with the on head volume controls with a USB to type c or micro USB. i dont even use my audio tecnica with mod mic anymore enen though that was like 115
It's kind of Ironic how they bash the headset because it feels like it will fall apart in their hands but they are actually twisting it like no other headset would be able to without breaking and it's just fine LOL!
I'd say although what they went for material wise doesn't feel like it's good quality, It's not falling apart anytime soon
I have a sennheiser GSP350, you can twist the handband like laffy taffy and it wont break. build quality is amazing as well.
"The build quality is not great"
Squeezing the headset with a hydraulic press ...
using this keyboard about 3 years..and still its working fine!!
I have the RGB model and it's an amazing keyboard.
Awesome keyboard
I have an rgb one with aluminum frame. It’s been totally fine and a mouse that works fine. Had them both for 2 years. Only reason I would change is for better software for macro control etc...
I have the kala model since 3 years ,still works like day one :D
Ayyy same here I have the solid steel frame and backplate one's home defense keyboard ftw
Could you guys consider doing a review of any gamedias keyboards, more specifically the lower priced ones
Genius GX Gaming Imperator???
Gamedias is just really bad stuff stay clear.
Actually, the headphones are extremely durable for the price. And yes, good headphones should be able to bend without snapping.
That head set is built pretty well if you ask me.
The fact that the headset can handle the way you are treating it shows that it is quite robust and won't break as easily as I would have expected. Great video :-D
I think it's not bad, for that price
btw im using a cheap 15$ membrane keyboard by red gear, totally worth it imo
@Max Pain there r some 10$ logitech mice without all those fancy buttons
As someone who uses a redragon kala for 3 years I can say the otemu blue switches hold on quite well , 0 problems with mine

uuuuu, Have you ever heard of Trust standalone microphone for 6$? it works damn well.
I think all headsets would be crying for that body feature
I bought that Red dragon Key board for my nephew setting a PC up for him.

I own a Redragon K555 Indrah Keyboard, had it for almost 3 years now and it works nice!
I use this Red Dragon mechanical keyboard but the rgb version and tbf I enjoy using it. Haven't used any other mechanicals yet though
mechanical over membrane NO MATTER WHAT..the fact that you can rapidly press the key and it registers compared to membrane
I have the RGB version of that keyboard it's the first mechanical keyboard I've bought, I've been using it for over a year and I'm thoroughly satisfied with it. I'm no mechanical keyboard enthusiast but it gets the job done.
Good thing I buyed this and I already had another Headsets
My red dragon mechanical keyboard is 3 years old and still good. Though I handed it off to the rest of my family since I switched to a Vortex Racer 3. But I’d recommend the Red Dragon if you like clicky
no headsets are not supposed to do that but at least you know that you could fly into a rage and fling your headsets across room and it won't break!
I have a Redragon Yama and i can say after 2 years it is holding up very well
I just got that keyboard and I had it for about 2 months. I love it more than my anne pro 2. The RGB version has the best pre set RGB I have ever had. And it's like 30 bucks. Can't be beat!!
Him stretches ut

I have the kumara. i like how cheap it is.
Bought the RGB COMBO for $32 in January in the U.S., works fine so far.
That is accually a good headset it’s good that it’s flexible
I have the Reddragon Perdition mouse and I'll vouch for the quality.
+3 years, still alive.
yes, headsets do this. It also allows to adjust tightness. Maybe stick to the news.
I've got two of them, one of them the red dragon. I didn't stick with it because it was a noisy blue switch which was WAY too noisy. 2/3 of the noise it the stupid key tops slapping down.

If you can't find a better bundle deal then I say this is pretty good.
I'd love some budget amp or mixer options. It feels weird just plugging my headset and mic into my pc
Honestly I stick with Redragon because the MMO mouse I got from them for my first gaming rig is the whole reason I was able to switch to pc at first(Still using it after all these years, 6 so far). I'm not a big writer, so the keyboard I have, that you just reviewed, actually is completely adequate for me, plus the sound makes you feel productive.
Yeah I ordered a red dragon keyboard with chiclet keys about a year ago and upon arrival 11 keys weren't working.
Oof

I use that keyboard and mouse (not the headset) I’ve smashed the mouse on my desk really hard, several times and it still works great
got this keyboard last year, $25 usd after shipping love it
Only one led color for the keyboard?
A budget Bluetooth wireless set up
For the price the Redragon keyboard is good, if you want a better one for a bit more cash try the Ajazz AK33 rgb.
Wargaming be looking for that $$$
I wish they used less red. I don't like red in my peripherals.
Its in their name
Maybe you should check green serpent instead.
Ufd is secretly in Florida and not South Africa
best value is velocifire VM01 I been using them for years , mechanical brown switches a nice compromise between tactil feedback and not having a click that's too loud like reds or blues, have 3 of there KBs and will buy a few more to shelve
Dude Brett your rock and keeping going! Your friend on the other side of the planet. Idaho😜
Go Gators! Love the tech videos. Keep up the great work.
please do another video with other techtubers . preferably used pc price/performance coz im from joburg and this place is dry
There’s your problem. ‘Joburg’
Where is the cheapest places to buy pc parts in south Africa?
You guys should do a a review on the red dragon yama. That keyboard is severely underated
Not worth it. Bought mine a year ago and it's already dying-leds and switches. The mouse is good tho. The headset not so.
im sorry but that headset looks durable..
You should review the redragon yama, it's a 70$ mechanical keyboard which has a lot of gimmicks like a wrist wrest, macro keys, multimedia keys and its also the only keyboard with Purple switches which I have to say I really enjoy
Hey.Can you please make a video about VR.Virtual Reality.And what are they creating next ? :)
What the actually difference between Mechanical keyboard and membrane other then mechanical feels better
Deadass have this and its amazing :)
I like to Corsair Combo Kit better. Don't get a Mechanical Keyboard, but the Headphones makes up for it.
Guys, could you try out the Sharkoon purewriter? It’s a very good low profile keyboard for around 60-70€
ME: (saw the title and its color red..) 'oh redragon huh..'
i dunno but.. i remember those 'fake cherry keys' got official name.. not because they are first the others are fake..
it's not our fault if we like the 'fake' one over the 'genuine cherry keys' expensive shite.. ya know~
and.. you can get a 'full mechanical keyboard' for almost or less than 35 USD.. so definitely not worth it..
The video starts at 2:18. You are welcome
It seems alright for the price. Not bad at all.
Great video again. I also had problems with Reddragon mouse's. One that failed, another that response time was off. 🤔😕
You're right, no one has ever seen a toilet in runescape...... hmmmmmmmmmm....

could u do s107 combo?
Does it work with any pc
I was JUST looking at the white k550 mechanical board. I want the Corsair white k70 but dunno if spending 160 bucks on a keyboard is insane.
does it work on ps4
That's very flexible headset.
