    To get the secondary function. You need to press the FN key then Left CTRL key to switch into it, then press FN with those keys.
    But you'll need to remember to switch it back to use numbers keys. There's no light indicator that shows that you've swapped into secondary function.
    Personally I find this very troublesome, where I have to use both my hands just to adjust the volume and I got confused sometimes when forgot to swap back.
    They should've make them under letters keys on right side so that you can just press FN and the keys, one-handed.

      I'm currently using the RK61 but considering an upgrade to a hotswappable keeb. But my potential issue with the RK71 layout is the placement of the FN key. Would like to know if you find it difficult to find or did you get used to it over time. I usually press it with my right pinky in the RK61 layout. Thanks!

    Bought it a few months ago. Things I would add : the magnetic legs have a chance of losing the magnets, so if you use them make sure you're careful on how you put them on or take them off( or get the glue ready ). I personally don't use them, it works better ergonomically.
    The battery : had no problem with it, lasts I'd say a day with lights turned on all the time (full on gaming session ), but now I keep it without the keys lights , just the sides. It's been a few days, still goes well shows no sign of stopping anytime soon. When battery goes low, the Fn key flashes a bit then lights turn off in order to make sure you still have the keyboard working. The battery says 200mah on the back of my keyboard, so I'm not sure about the ratings, but I really enjoy the battery life. Charging while gaming makes you think that it charged a lot faster than it probably did, but anyway I'd say it charges quite fast. It feels like it's under 3 hours, but I did not measure anything. It just feels fast. Also, it's always an option to keep it plugged in.
    Bluetooth : read the manual so you know what to press. Once it's paired, it instantly works whenever you turn the keyboard off and on. I usually turn it off when I don't use it for more than 10 mins and after turning it back on, it works within seconds. Just make sure to keep Bluetooth active on your computer. Didn't try with phones (I mean... Who tries that ), but probably similar experience.
    Switches : bought with reds, they are rk proprietary switches. It's my first mechanical keyboard, but nevertheless it feels amazing. It's a pleasure to type. Kind of addicting.
    The media buttons mentioned in the video : the manual suggests that they're not supposed to work on windows, but rather in Mac mode and only on Mac OS. Fn + numbers goes to F keys on windows, so there you go for an explanation.
    I remapped page up down for media inside the dedicated software, but Autohotkey can do more advanced stuff.
    Overall : definitely recommend. Compared to other, more expensive options I had for mechanical keyboards at the time of purchase, this one ticks off all the boxes and looks amazing. Vibrant rgb, looks amazing at night, can change speed color, has different color animations. Just an amazing little package if you don't want a full size keyboard. I wanted the Bluetooth wireless, it works flawlessly.
    So there you go, a few additional comments.
    Wrote quite a bit, not going to spellcheck.

    For me, the 70 Percent keyboards are the best form factor: 5 rows to keep my hands on homerow. The ESC key is easy to reach. It has the arrows, pgup, pgdn, Home, End, DEL, Backspace.. And I use all those in Vim. When I need the F1-12 keys, they are easy enough using the Fn shifter key. If a keyboard has over 5 rows, then its impossible for me to keep my hands on homerow. This has what I need.

    • @mikes978

      70% is great, but I'm finding that I don't really use the insert button and have no idea what the pause button even is for. Do you know if we can bind those keys to do a different function or perform a macro? If not, I think 65% would be better for me.

      But my RK71 got bent by my sister after I gave it to her somehow.. idk what to say other than it's not too durable? But everything else about the keyboard seems fine tho. Bluetooth no problems but it's latency isn't the best. I'd prob recommend using wired If you're gaming but if you really can't then wireless is fine. Although I would recommend buying a custom keyboard, mainly because it'll last longer and a better choice overall, if you're on a budget RK is still not bad a choice.
      FYI I got the dual mode (bluetooth/wired) so I don't really know about 2.4ghz connection. That's basically everything I have to say. Have a good day! 👍

    I got rk71 as my first mechanical keyboard, the build quality is great and the rgb on the white one is so vibrant and colorful. It cost me around 45$. However, if you are confused between Red and Brown switches, I would definitely recommend Brown switches. The Red switches in rk71 just feel like membrane keyboard and the sound is terrible.
    Edit: However the red switches are so smooth and so good for gaming as you don't have to press hard for a key.
