Rii Gaming Keyboard, RK100 Light Up Keyboard Mechanical Feeling Keyboard with 3 Single LED Backlit Color (Red/Purple/Blue)-UK Layout

I purchased this product as our main family computer is in a dark area in our living room and so when it got later in the evening it was difficult to see the keys, even with all the lights on! So I did some research and found this little gem for only £9.99, although I was skeptical of the price at first since my personal keyboard is backlit and worth around £50 when I bought it so I was suspicious of the build quality. Once the product arrived it came in nice secure packaging. It was very easy to set up and start with no issues whatsoever really, which was a nice start. The keys aren't completely like a conventional mechanical keyboard as it is only "Mechanical Feeling" as it states, however the keys still have a nice proper feel to them as you type. all the keys seemed to work fine and nothing was amiss, again I was impressed thus far. Now to the main reason I purchased this keyboard. The backlighting. I had read a few reviews that people were saying that it was too dim, even in the darkly lit corner of our living room, it seemed to be shining bright, very visible in all lighting! My parents had tried it out individually themselves and both seemed very impressed! The build quality seems solid and the keys have a very nice feel to them, the backlighting not only looks very appealing but also is very functional for those struggling to see the keys in darker lighting. I personally prefer darker lit rooms so it's perfect for myself. Compared to my £50 Keyboard, I'll admit it isn't as impressive, but surprisingly, it isn't far off! And considering the difference in price and value for money, I would definitely have to recommend this piece of equipment. A day after purchasing the product and my father has already taken to showing off the new cool looking keyboard and in only one day after the products arrival, my grandmother wants one herself! A second one already ordered and no complaints from her either, so it seems to fit all demographics! Very impressed, would have to try some other Rii products in the future.

I've had this keyboard for around three weeks now, and I can easily say it's the best keyboard I've owned! Granted, I haven't owned many that I've really wanted to, and so I'm no expert but it works, looks amazing and feels great to type on too. The overall design of the keyboard is slightly slimmer and less wide than a usual keyboard by the fact that the base has been reduced slightly in thickness, and there's very little border around the keys, this, however doesn't make it any less sturdy. The layout's fantastic - all keys are easy to read and decipher even when the back lighting is turned off, and there are signal lights to show "number lock / caps lock / scroll lock" which are obvious and in a perfect place (top right-hand corner). The key to turn the back lighting on / off is easy to spot as showing a small sun-like symbol, placed in between the right-hand FN (function) key, and Ctrl (control) key. The keyboard's weight is decent, slightly more than I imagined, but lighter than any regular keyboard. The colours don't change or rotate, and you can't fix them to one specific colour, but to me the full rainbow is what I was looking for in a backlit gaming keyboard, which looks good in full light, but looks even better in darker settings. The only thing I had to get used to whilst typing on this keyboard, was the Enter key; it's an oblong shape, so I had trouble adapting to not pressing a little above it while I typed. On one final note, the wire is shorter than I expected meaning I had to find some extension cords to be able to plug it into the back of my computer, but it works completely perfectly, and that is my one and only downside. For those worried: - It came in good time - It looks exactly as it does in the picture shown - It's well packaged and came with instructions to help you set up, along with contact information so you could get hold of the seller if need be (I had no reason to) - Great quality for the price paid, would DEFINITELY use this seller again :) EDIT - as a quick update, I have now had this keyboard for round about 2 years, and I still use it every single day without any issues. Still as good as the day I got it :)

Nice keyboard, bigger than what I expected but that was because I didn't look at measurements. The lights are nice, not too bright it will bother someone else in the room. You have the option to turn them off or down. Types pretty quite too and is light to use. Definetly worth £17.99

Came next day was in good condition don't see anything wrong so it's a pretty good purchase five stars

**5 Stars: Exceptional Gaming Keyboard!** I couldn't be happier with this keyboard! From the moment I plugged it in, I knew I had made the right choice. The build quality is outstanding, with a solid, durable feel that promises longevity. The LED lighting is a visual treat, offering three vibrant colors—red, blue, and purple—that add a dynamic flair to my gaming setup. The keys provide a mechanical feel that is a game-changer, giving tactile feedback and a satisfying click with every press. This has significantly improved my typing speed and accuracy, not to mention the incredible responsiveness during intense gaming sessions. Considering all these features, this gaming keyboard offers incredible value for its price. It's a perfect blend of functionality, style, and performance without breaking the bank. Highly recommended for both casual and hardcore gamers alike!

So I want to start by saying I did not get this intending for it to be a "pro-gaming" keyboard, because it clearly isn't that. If you wanted that you will be disappointed. However, it's a great keyboard for people who use their computer casually, like if they spend a lot of time talking to friends online and stuff like that. Pros - Design is smooth and feels good to type on it compared to other keyboards of a similar price (which is precisely the reason I got that keyboard, because my last keyboard was unbearable to use). I don't get why people are saying it feels stiff, it doesn't. Soft, but not stiff. Heck, my keyboard didn't even have the issue with the enter key people keep bringing up (is there multiple versions or something?). - A bit of an odd one, but I like the sound it makes. While nowhere near mechanical keyboard level, the sound it makes is oddly pleasing to me. It might just be a "me" thing though. - Surprisingly compact for a full-size keyboard. I kid you not, I could put this in my bag and go to my grandma's house and just pull it out with my laptop. Super convenient and I very much appreciate design like that. - Works perfectly fine. If you just want a keyboard that "works" then this is just what you need, my friends. Cons - Inconsistent lighting makes it awkward to tell what brightness setting to set it to. There doesn't even seem to be a set theme with the brightest keys either, which makes this very odd to me. - The writing on the keys is also very inconsistent. This is very much a minor annoyance, but if you're bothered by stuff like that, this keyboard might not be for you. - This might just be a problem with the one I got, but the cable at the back doesn't fit properly with the hole, which got me very worried. I was able to fix it by holding it in place with some tape, but this could potentially be a big issue that you might want to look into. Overall this keyboard is very average. But for me, and hopefully some other people, that's perfect. I didn't mention anything relating to actual gaming keyboards, because I've never used an actual gaming keyboard. I'm a casual gamer. But if you, like me, just want an upgrade from a really bad cheap keyboard you've been using until you found it unbearable at a very low cost, this is the keyboard for you.

This is a very good keyboard, but for the deal price of £14.44, it is excellent. It is now £16.99, which is still a bargain! I use it for typing and general computer work. I do not use if for gaming. There are a few little niggles: The keys markings are not very visible unless in bright light. I am a touch typist, but I do need to see the keys when selecting the f numbers and some other functions. However the LED backlight helps with this. I find the blue and red backlight a bit intrusive, however the purple light is fine. Plus you can set this with three brightness options. It is a bit too easy to hit the backlight key by mistake though, which will either change the colour or switch it off. As a touch typist I find the keys are slightly closer together, but I'm sure I will get used to this soon. If you are not a touch typist you probably won't notice this. It is a nice smallish size so will fit easily on just about any desktop. It doesn't come with a palmrest, though this keeps the size down. The keys are actually better than in the image. It appears the keys have been updated. The enter key is now the correct size and the # key is in the right place. Some reviewers mentioned that the # key was above the enter key and that the enter key was too small. I can now confirm that this has been corrected as in my recent delivery of this fine keyboard. I was going to give this 4 stars because of the few small niggles. However it is well worth 5 stars, which I have amended. Overall this is a great keyboard. A bargain and highly recommended.

I’ve seen many negative reviews on Amazon for this keyboard but really don’t understand why – ignore them! This is a great keyboard. It feels great to use and I like the fact that the keys have a little spacing around them, which helps minimise keystroke errors. Yes it has got the logo to the right of the main keyboard but it really isn’t anything to moan about! Like the backlights and nice to have the option of turning these off (I bought the keyboard to use at my desk in the office so really don’t need the backlights on at all!). I would say that the only slight negative for me (but that’s me nit-picking!) is that the keys are very slightly inverted domed (they have a slight dent in the centre) so that when I use the keyboard in the office, the lights above me in the ceiling are being reflected in the shiny keys of the keyboard making it a little difficult to see the letters but other than that, a truly fabulous imitation mechanical keyboard at a fraction of the cost! Update - 27th June'19 I ordered this around the 3rd April and have been using it every day since then - this is a quick update!! Keyboard still going strong, no problems at all! Only slight negatives (again, nit picking) - the keys that you use most frequently (e, a,s,d, c, left shift key, parts of the space bar and some of the arrow and number keys), have become slightly more shiny than the rest, where they have been used more than the other keys. This causes little smear marks where your fingers will naturally sweat so find myself having to wipe my keyboard daily to get rid of these marks. Also - the gaps between the keys are prone to collecting lots of dust - more so than a standard keyboard but other that these 2 small negatives, its still a great keyboard!

Seems to be a deal that is almost to good. The keyboard works and looks great. Dont let the low cost fool you, its a better than expected product. I know this sounds like a generic review but its real lol.

This is a wonderful keyboard! I love every bit of it! It’s even better than I expected! I wish I had bought two so I would have a backup but I just went to buy the second one and it went from $14.99 that I paid for it to $196.59. Whilie it is worth $14.99 or even $40, it is not even close to worth, $196.59!!!!

This keyboard is pretty great-- beautiful backlight colors, nice key action. I'm pretty much in love with it. The only problem is that mine occasionally changes from a steady light to a slowly blinking one. It's weird and distracting. Also, the functions of the WASD and the arrow keys switched. Both problems righted themselves when I unplugged and plugged the keyboard back in. Kinda thinking I may need a replacement, actually. In any case, it's a really nice keyboard with great lights, and it's very comfortable to use. Even though it has weird problems, I don't regret my purchase, and I will definitely get a replacement.

They shipped it fast and on time. I like it a lot its way better then I expected it to be. It only has 2 lighting effects. One being constantly on. And the other being a fade from bright to dim. And then obviously you can turn off the light all together if you wanted to. The keys feel solid 👌 its bright but not to bright. Looks really good and feels good in gaming. For the price its well worth it if you want a budget keyboard. I was not disappointed at all.

Really decent key feel, LED lighting is fine, space bar has a nice slope to it making it more ergonomic than other keyboards I've used. Key stroke is soft but tactile--I've had friends ask if it was a mechanical board. I just wanted a cheapy keyboard to throw on an extra PC but I've been really pleased with this keyboard. Right now I wouldn't have any problem buying another one to use in the future.
