For those who would like to buy this keyboard, I would just say that this is worth it if you are looking for the cheapest mechanical keyboard with removable cable and hot swappable switches but keep in mind that the keycaps are not double-shot pbt keycaps so you will have to replace it if you want to avoid having keycaps that fades. I have been planning on buying the gk61 but rejected the idea due to the ridiculous price that exceeds my budget and just decided to go for this since redragon is also a good brand and I believe that I have made a good decision. I have bought this at shopee for 1.1k (php) and bought an additional pudding keycaps set worth 700 php and I am good to go. Always remember that all pre-made keyboards rattles due to the unbalanced stand that supports the switches and it is not a big deal at all but if you hate a little rattling then you can always watch a tutorial in youtube for adding lube and cutting the legs in the switches. Overall, I have been able to save a lot of money compared to buying the gk61 and this keyboard is perfect for everyone who wants to have an rgb keyboard at a very small price but also hates spending a big amount of money on it. Lastly, the total for the keyboard and the pudding keycaps (optional only) would be 1.8k php which is significantly cheaper and better compared to other keyboards on the market.
Hello thanks for the information, I have been choosing between the ajazz and this one and I believe that you have convinced me into buying this keyboard.
mine's pretty good after 4 and a half months, tho i think mine's a bit buggy and it sometimes inputs 2 letters/numbers instead of one. but overall still intact and good quality edit: I've managed to replace the broken/dead switches and it works perfectly fine and it was indeed the switch's fault not the entire keyboard.
goods yan sa fps, cons lng di ma figure out kung pano yung alf + f4 haha. then yung macro lighting recording. medyo di ko rin ma figure. pero overall goods naman

Hey dude. You earned a new sub! Would like to take your opinion on which one to get since I need a "quieter" typing sound. Should I get the blue or red switch one?

Hello nifty! I'm new to mech keyboard. Can you help me choose between Red dragon fizz k617 and Red dragon 606. Thanks! I also prefer red switches than blue because of the less noise.
@@zaiffer2728 I picked k617 but i haven't tried it yet because it is still on the delivery. I picked fizz over lakshmi cause of it's software and I also like the design too.
Do you think it is worth to buy the Redragon Lakshmi keyboard if the main purpose is typing and designing? I'm still having second thoughts whether to buy one or not because of the absence of arrow keys.
consider other options, i got it and its quite annoying to use without the arrows. well technically there are you just have to press the Fn key then use the wasd, but its still quite annoying haahha. But as my first mechanical keyboard i love it
you can make the thick gateron pin(only 1. you can compare it with the outemu pins. you'll see the difference between the 2 outermost pins) fit by shaving it off matching the outemu pins.
bilhin nyo nalang yung redragon draconic k530 meron ata sa lazada mga 2850. hot swap at maganda atsaka bluethoot 5.0 which means napaka onting latency lng wth 4 extra switches pa (red, blue , brown, at black). kaso brown switch lng pag pipilian. pero solid naren sa below 3K dami pang ibang features dko lng sinama. sana makatulong
@@eddiedont kung hindi ka mag bluetooth ok lng din nmn kasi maganda nadin yung keybaord para sa presyo nya kaso kung gusto mo tlga mas maganda mag upgrade ka ng k530
It has the arrow key features but unfortunately , they are usable only by pressing the function 1 (FN 1) button. I used mine for DOTA , and some FPS games yet they are great to use.
gusto ko lang pong malaman kung capable po ba siya for hard typings/clicks? for a game like osu po, planning to buy po kasi ng budget mech kb hehe thank you!
am using this to play osu and so far, so good naman. much better than using blues since it has a higher actuation point compared to reds. plus, streaming is much easier using dis
Already purchased ajazz ak33 black switch single light around 20 dolar(still shipping) but found this reddragon around 27 dolar. i'm not sure which better but kind of like this one.
I actually own both and just sold my AK33 (yes, also with black switches) because this one has an ideal form factor and that the blue switches it comes with feel way better. The only thing I don't like about this is the lack of arrow keys (expected for its size) and that you have to resort to using the FN+WASD combo to move around.
it was indeed hotswappable. sorry for the misinformation.

no

Redragon k617 fizz has rgb which means each key has its own lighting.
Redragon lakshmi k600r doesn't have rgb but it has rainbow only.
This is nice and affordable. If I had the budget I'd buy this for gamingand just use my tecware phantom w/ brown switch for typing.
