I got the Royal Kludge 68 which has, obviously, 68 keys. It is what is known as a 65% keyboard. I got it in brown switches and it came with Royal Kludge branded switch.
Upon first receiving, it was actually quite unusual. I was a little surprise by how it felt to type on this keyboard. I’ve just been too used to scissors, butterfly and membranes, pressing the keys felt a little too harsh?
Another issue with my keyboard is the lack of dedicated functions keys, so getting to the multimedia keys is a, lack of a better word, hassle. I’m thinking of returning this, because I’ve already pre-ordered the 84 keys - which has dedicated function rows - from a sketchy account on Shopee (so I’m not sure if it’ll go through in the end…) but really i like this form factor though.
I much prefer this size and all..
But I’m just really bothered by the multimedia keys. Plus, when using the 2.4ghz dongle on my laptop, the multimedia don’t seem to work?? Not a big deal, since i use Bluetooth more, but pretty annoying if you ask me. I want things to be functional you know?
I’m babbling and this entry is a mess but that’s because I’m watching this YouTube commenting about big ed hahaha.
Anyways, I’m thinking of returning this and getting a Logitech k380 instead. It’s portability and reliable. It is the smarter decision. But, it’s really so much more satisfying to be typing with a mechanical keyboard. I love the feel and the sound. It’s great :’)
And, it helps to make me want to keep typing.
And writing..
I just…
I need to get myself together.
I’m sorry I’m a mess.
