### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WORTH IT EVEN THO ITS CHEAP
*by K***E on July 24, 2026*

Prettiest rgb colors of any keyboard ive owned and the small size is perfect if your main intentions are gaming/YT

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best keyboard you can get under 30 bucks!
*by D***6 on July 25, 2026*

Great keyboard! The switches feel great, the lighting in this keyboard for $30 bucks is much better than the lighting in my $80 Corsair keyboard. Love the size of it too, gives me so much more room in my desk. Love this thing, worth the money for sure!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great affordable option!
*by S***O on January 8, 2022*

In the last year or so I’ve gotten into PC gaming from console gaming and looked everywhere for affordable and quality additions for my setup and found my way to the Redragon company. I was originally using a full sized mechanical keyboard and wanted a smaller 60% hotswappable one that wouldn’t break the bank and this was a great option. My previous keyboard was heavy, had loud sharp sounding switches, and had a problem with response time when gaming and this one solves most of those problems. It has great response time, nicer soft sounding switches that can be modded or replaced, and is very light weight and small and can easily fit in my relatively small hands. The only things I will say about it is that it takes a particular type of switch connection that isn’t found in the more popular switches, the power chord is kind of short, and the feet on the back of the keyboard don’t do much and I find using my arm rest under it works better but I can’t beat the price and overall quality. It comes with replacement red linear switches, keycap and switch pullers, and a downloadable software to customize the rbg lighting of the keyboard. Of course as with any kind of electronic purchase do your own research and watch videos about it but I definitely recommend.
