I really do love this keyboard, but I wouldn’t really recommend buying it. Here are some points: PROS: +Sturdy metal build, high quality feel +LED is beautiful, has breathing / brightness options +Has 10-key +Low price CONS: -Very loud, switches are more like green -KEY CHATTER – many people reported this same issue; after a bit, certain keys started to register multiple times with one key stroke or not register at all (like the A key, while gaming. Kind of important…) I bought some quick dry electronics contact cleaner and sprayed it in the switch and it’s working correctly again, so the problem must be related to some dust / dirtiness in the switches. Since so many people have the same problem, I’m thinking there’s some issue with their factory / assembly. Needs to be addressed. Now that I’ve fixed it, I’m liking it again and using it, but I wouldn’t risk that again. A friend of mine got a similarly priced eagletec mechanical keyboard and hasn’t had issues.Read more

I have a 2014 Razor Blackwidow Ultimate Stealth keyboard. Granted, it is now pushing close to three years of heavy use and the only sign of wear and is at the point that the braided cord connects at the top of the unit. Also, the passthrough USB functionality has come in handy when two of my USB ports went out on my tower so I was able to easily and quickly get my mouse dialed in. However, I have now purchased the REDRAGON K551 Keyboard on three different occasions as gifts and I am envious every time that I have, as this is an awesome keyboard costing just a fraction of what I’m sure was paid for my keyboard (it too was a gift a few years ago). Fortunately, my most recent Redragon purchases have been for my mom and boyfriend (we live together) so I have had the opportunity to watch him game almost daily on the Redragon and although it is very loud, it is responsive and the 104 key model takes up very little space. Another high point for me is that it is lightweight. I game with my keyboard in my lap and have dropped this beast of a Razor keyboard on my toes too many times to count. The Redragon is still solid though and the cord is so much more flexible. I really do not care for how bulky my cords are compared to these. Also, the Redragon does offer a rainbow back-lighting option although I went w/ just the red for both previous purchases. My boyfriend and I also have past experience with Corsair and came away feeling as though they just weren’t as comfortable or responsive. I do not know the exact actuation of the Redragon other than that it is short which to me equals good. I gave my boyfriend’s brother a Redragon almost three years ago as well and it still looks and works like it is brand new and believe me, these guys (they’re twins) are harder on stuff than anyone I have ever met so it passes their abuse, I think it’s safe to say these are built well at an affordable price. I understand my review isn’t all that technical but do hope it is helpful in some small manner – at the very least hopefully it will reinforce the fact that you made a great purchasing decision. Happy computing to all!Read more

EDIT, see original 5 star review below: Worked a year and a day. And then, it gave up the ghost. In the middle of a ranked game. With no other computer issues present. A section of the keyboard just died. I thought that I had a glitch on my hands, and restarted, but to no avail. I actually ended up pulling out the Blackwidow this keyboard replaced and plugged it in and completed my game. I wish I could say that I won, but life doesn’t always have happy endings. ORIGINAL: I bought this to replace a very expensive Razer Blackwidow. One of the older ones, from before Razer switched away from using cherry mx switches and tried to sell it as a good thing. ANYWAYS, my keyboard had a drinking problem. I will give them their due, Razer made a peripheral that can really hold it’s gin and tonics. But every morning that I woke up to find that some irresponsible jerk (drunk me) had spilled another drink in the keyboard and gone to sleep without even trying to clean up, 1 or 2 keys never came back to life. 4 spills later and I had a mostly functional keyboard. I thought this thing was going to be a huge step down in quality, but I have to say, it seems to be very well constructed and I am loving it. This one is on a strict diet though, no alcoholic drinks allowed.Read more

It’s been a while since I purchased the product and it’s hardly given me any issues so far. Got it for 4k in December, 2017. There was this brief time when one of the keys was mysteriously registering multiple presses, but the issue went away just as randomly as it came. Other than that, I have no complaints about the product.Read more

We bought the keyboard from divagift and it was completely different than advertised. We ordered redragon mechanical keyboard and got a cheap random plastic keyboard. Once we enquired about it and sent pictures we were advised that it was a correct keyboard which it wasn’t according description and pictures provided. Got scammed and return price was taken out of the return as per their policy… Don’t buy this, it’s very disappointing…Read more

Review for Redragon k551 VARA (red switch version). Bought at price: Rs 3190. I’ve been using it for over a month and is doing good so far. The keys are very sensitive and registers a click before you completely press it down. I primarily use it for gaming and since Its red switch type, there is no tactile effect and you could easily mistype without realising. Few other facts you should know : 1. It’s heavy and feels sturdy. The base is plastic but there is no or negligible flex. 2. Its not completely RGB all five rows light up in a different colour. 3. Letters on the keycaps are not very visible without backlighting so if you are in a dim lit room you need to keep backlight on. There are 5 levels of brightness, at its peak brightness its not too bright nor too dim, ( i don’t want my keyboard backlight to be too bright). 4. The usb cord is pretty thick and seems it will last long. 5. One thing they could improve is the aesthetics, feels like keys are placed inside a box. 6. There is no palm rest but it comes with 4 extra keys and keycap puller (pics attached). Overall its a good choice for beginners and there are no major drawbacks. Will update after 6 months of usage.Read more

Let me start by saying I have a HyperX gaming keyboard. Both these keyboard are used for work, not for gaming. I am software engineer, so they are really used a lot. The HyperX is double the price. Build quality for both are perfect. I have no idea how they could improve on this, and they shouldn’t. This is my first day using this RedDragon keyboard. I am very happy with my purchase and I am a very picky guy. Keys are solid, and experience really good. The only reason I gave this a 4 and not a 5 is the LED’s could be a bit brighter and the clicks are a bit loud, although I suspect i could get used to both. You cannot get better value for money. SO t add to the review, since I have the link. I have had it for a few days now, and the clicking much less noticable. Still happy I got this.Read more
