RedragonK619 Horus RGB Mechanical Keyboard, Ultra Thin Designed Wired Gaming Keyboard w/Low Profile Keycaps, Dedicated Media Control & Linear Red Switch, Pro Software Supported

I have owned and used this keyboard for over a year and it has been an amazing tool for my workflows. I have used it in both personal and professional capacity. I love the fact that it was so easy to set up and use. The key height, the key stroke, the switches everything are really nice especially at the price point. The option to be able to connect to different devices is amazing.

This keyboard has many pros and a few cons. Let's start with the latter. The Enter key, instead of being the classic L-shaped key—large and easy to click—is split into two. The Enter key is similar in size to the Shift key, and just above it, there's a key that should give the backslash, but it actually results in the hashtag. This is another issue with this keyboard because some symbols are incorrect. The 2 key, when pressed with Shift, should result in @, but instead, it gives ", or the 3 key gives £ instead of #. Luckily, muscle memory now prevents me from making any mistakes while typing, but this is something to consider when purchasing, especially if you're used to keyboards with a UK layout.The pros, however, are numerous and very welcome. The volume wheel is incredibly convenient; I can't do without it. The customizable macro keys are excellent, allowing me to create highly personalized key combinations, which is a delight for someone who works with many different software programs. It's very convenient. The software that manages the RGB lighting is also excellent. Finally, a keyboard in this price range that allows you to manage colors.Typing is very pleasant and not too noisy. I like the reduced key travel, but that's a matter of personal preference. The weight is excellent. I'm quite satisfied. Great value for the price.

My first Horus keyboard wouldn't charge so couldn't use it on wifi/bluetooth. Redragon customer support were quick to respond and sent a replacement without any quibbles. The replacement worked straight out of the box. The battery doesn't last that long and when it's time to recharge it gave me no warning - it just died.It's easy to hit the wrong key because the key switches are so light - they are easily triggered if you accidently hit an adjacent key; more so than a standard writing keyboard where the occasional misskey won't result in a sentence fall of mistakes. I've noticed that the C key can be a bit temparamental and have had to hit it a few times before it responded. Not sure if this is a 2.4Ghz connetion issue. I don't use this for gaming but I guess the light keys give a very quick response time.A few of the character keys don't have the traditional symbols on. For instance the number 3 key has Hash symbol on it but hitting Shift + 3 gives you a £ and the apostrophe symbol gives you a @ with the shift key instead of a double apostrophe.The media buttons work ok - with some applications you need to press the Pause button before adjusting the sound via the built in wheel as it appears to disengage very quickly. Other users appear to have the same issue but if you press the pause button quickly on and off to re-engage the system, the wheel will adjust the volume.I don't know what the Redragon software does - whenever I open it, it says the keyboard is disconnected even when it's charging with the cable connected - so I uninstalled it.I think it does what is expected of it and the RGB lighting is nice and bright and it has a nice low profile which counteracts some of my niggles about the light key pressure and a couple of the key cap symbol assignments. I haven't tried to program any of the macros yet. The best thing about this keyboard is that customer services will respond if you have any issues. It's a sorry state of affairs in the world when that comes as a surprise, but having a human being take responsibility for their product has become like gold dust and they were great, clearly because I had a faulty product.I bought this after my Corsair K70 RGB Mk2 died (my fault for messing with the keys) and I didn't want to pay another £150 for a new one. It's not a patch on the Corsair but it was also well under half the price of the Corsair on Black Friday and is a good alternative if you can put up with some basic issues.4 stars for brightness because it goes into sleep mode very quickly.4 stars for Ergonomic because of a few key cap symbol assignments and the overly light key switches.4 stars for gaming because an accidental press of a 'Crouch' or 'Throw Grenade' key could spell disaster in the heat of frenzied battle.3 to 4 stars overall because, whilst it looks nice, this is not a premium product. I bought mine for £65 but wouldn't pay more for it.

Bought for son for Christmas as recommend. Son liked the keyboard but was unable to utilise it due to being a US layout and unable to remap the board. Build quality seemed really good.

Keyboard is too sensitive and keys press too often unintentionally.Battery life is okay, lasts for like a week or so.- Volume scroll wheel feels very cheap and rattles when changing volume, would be much better if it had a more tactile feel.- Software is very janky and you have to click save every time you change a setting, no preview of colours you set, initially it didn't even save anything, requiring me to restart a couple time.- There is a flex in the middle of keyboard if you press down a bit.- Usb 2.4 receiver is held on with a magnet so best to put somewhere safe when transporting.- Key caps do create extra noise and seem to be made of a cheap finish.- LED luminance through keycaps is a hit or miss, some areas are poorly lit.Its okay as a budget keyboard but realistically, there are much better options at this price point !
