M75 Mechanical Keyboard with OLED Smart Display and Volume Knob, 2.4G/USB-C/BT Gasket Mounted 75% Layout Wireless Gaming Keyboard with 81 Keys, RGB Backlit Hot-Swappable Brown Switch

I’ve been using my Royal Kludge M75 with red switches since November. I use it for work, gaming, and writing. Honestly a pleasure to type on. Feels and looks great. Nice, solid, but not too loud, on the thockier side of things. Modification has been easy - swapping keycaps and switches were a cinch, and I’m pretty new to the hobby. I love having 5 modes of connectivity. Setting up the Bluetooth was easy, and so is swapping between connection modes. I have my work laptop on 5GHz dongle, personal PC is on USB-C and BT1, tablet on BT2, and phone on BT3. Quick and consistent connections means I can actually swap naturally on the go. Got one for my brother for Christmas and he loves it too. Texts me every couple weeks saying how nice it is over his work keyboard. I’m sure you can find keyboards that are nicer, but I don’t know how you beat this quality at this price. I want to get other boards like the Royal Kludge RK61 and F68 because this is so good. You should plan on getting a wrist rest - it does sit high, but that’s standard for non-low profile keyboards. Shown here with custom keycaps from Amazon, and about to get some upgraded switches (PS I love the the reds that come with the board and they still work great, just wanted to try something else)

For context, I'm not an RK fangirl, and have had honestly pretty bad experiences with their keyboards in the past. I bought this keyboard a couple of weeks ago closer to when it came out. I mostly bought this keyboard to replace an aging Keychron K2, and decided to take a plunge with this one because I liked the keycaps and design of this keyboard, and I was a specifically looking for a keyboard that had side printed legends that matched the firmware. I've been around the custom keyboard block and I'm sick of having to memorize key combos for system functions, changing rgb, etc. Guess I'm getting older lmao. I bought the version with the brown switches. Upon inspection these appear to be Outemu browns with the RK branding on them. They were surprisingly okay. The tactility was a bit better than gateron browns. They're perfectly fine, but the appeal of hotswap is being able to change the switches. I changed mine to Akko Lavender switches, which went completely fine. No issues in the keycap or switch pulling process I can't confirm the keycap material anywhere, but if I had to guess, they're a high quality ABS instead of PBT. Double shot, as can be seen from the pictures. The casting isn't the best when looked at from the bottom, but I'll never see it and it doesn't affect the weighting of the keys. The color scheme is gorgeous to me. And there's still a good thock sound because I know us keyboard nerds care about that. Stabilizers are pretty good. They're not screw in as far as I can tell. They're very solid though and there's no rattle. The switch mounting plate was what surprised me the most. It appears to be some kind of polycarbonate with slats cut into it. It definitely adds to a slightly softer typing feel and better sound. I used to think this kind of mounting plate was a bit silly, but I'm quite pleased with this one. The RGB gets pretty bright. Pattern variety and color variety is about average, but the lighting quality itself is good. I didn't try any of the software that RK makes for their keyboard with this. I honestly loathe installing software for peripherals unless there's macros I need, and the RK software in the past had given me some issues with the RK61 I had. If you care about the lift up feet, they're really solid on this keyboard. Borderline actually hard to flip in and out. I'm expecting those to stay solid for a long time. The knob and OLED screen. Oh boy these are actually really good. To turn the keyboard on and off, just hold the knob down. Rotate the knob to change the volume on whatever device it's connected to. Press the knob to open a list of connection options (wired, 2.4ghz, BT). To re-pair bluetooth just hold the knob down when the cursor is over one of the BT options. If you change between mac and windows mode, the keyboard will remember which OS mode it was in for each connection option, which is excellent for switching between a Windows PC, a work Mac, and my iPad. Btw, mac mode does swap the function and media keys from windows mode, so you have to use fn to access the function keys. This is pretty normal mac behavior on other keyboards (nuphy, keychron, etc). Just something to be aware about. The OLED display is informative and shows connection, OS mode, battery life. Battery life is pretty good. Got about a week to ten days of wireless with RGB at full brightness on the waterfall pattern. I'd imagine I could get a month with the RGB off. Gaming latency is fine. Feels similar to an RK61 on all three connection modes. The wired mode is fast enough for FPS games, but if you're really sweaty I'd start looking into keyboards designed specifically for low latency gaming. The wireless 2.4ghz is fast enough for casual games, but not competitive FPS games at all. BT is too slow for gaming, as expected. Overall, I'd recommend this keyboard. I got it at the launch discount with a coupon, which was an excellent price. At its current MSRP, I'd say it's pretty good. There's a lot of quality of life features and things keyboard nerds care about. There's a lot of features on here that you'd really only find on more expensive boards and custom boards. The OLED screen and knob are pretty unique and the biggest selling point for this board imo, but the overall design and color is what's keeping me around. Also it thocks.

I've had this keyboard since September and wanted to really put it through some paces before a review. (Might be long, but i've had this for some time and wanted to give a good breakdown of this product coming from someone who has bought a few mechanical keyboards). Just a quick background, I play a large selection of games from Counter Strike, World of Warcraft, and other games between them. I'm also learning coding so I have used this keyboard for quite a bit of typing and long hours of typing so comfort is key. The Royal Kludge has been a game changer. I've been bouncing around different mainstream companies for a while now. I've owned 2-3 different Razer mechanical keyboards, 2 Corsair, and 1 Logitech. Nothing has been able to beat this. I've swapped out to my older keyboards from time to time to see if I 'truly' felt a difference. I always came back to the Royal Kludge. The pros. While these are mostly personal. Brown switches are a game changer for me. I love the feel and over the last few months, haven't had a single issue with any key or switch. The weight is perfect, while this is a little more on the heavier side, it feels sturdy and well built. The built in screen is really nice. Long time ago I had wireless keyboards and you would get a LED with Red, Green, and Yellow indicator. Hitting red felt like you were racing time. With the screen, you know exactly what you have left in the tank. Gaming with this keyboard has been really nice. I bought a 50% layout keyboard awhile back and while it was nice having a smaller keyboard on the desk, I really missed having F keys and some basic keys like Home, Page up, and Page Down. The Royal Kludge comes in clutch, it's the perfect size without giving too much up. The Cons. As I write this a few months after. I can't honestly think of a drawn out list of what I hate. The only thing I would of liked to see was backlit keys symbols. While the keyboard is backlit, the actual letters and numbers aren't backlit at all. While this isn't a complete show-stopper, it's something to consider when you buy it. Granted you can just buy a keycap set of whatever you choose later on to fix this. A minor issue, depends on the person. This keyboard does sit a little higher up. I bought a 75% Keyboard sized wrist rest, just to add to some comfort. I can't blame Royal Kludge for this with how much is packed inside. But as a reviewer to possible future owner. Maybe look into a wrist rest if you're feeling the height is a little harsh, it's night and day for me. Lastly while the packaging and everything was very good at protecting the keyboard. I wish the product came with a card of just a simple 'how to pair Bluetooth' or a breakdown of the settings. It's weird that a keyboard needs that, but since this one has a built in screen. I had to scratch my head a little when trying to pair it to a iPad because I couldn't figure out how to get it to start sending out a signal for pairing. After fiddling with it, I figured it out. But a card/little book would be nice. Once again, not a total show stopper since the Amazon page includes this information. tl;dr. Great keyboard, the cost gives you a solid mechanical keyboard without going into the 'hobbyist' side of it, great for FPS, MMORPGS, Coding, and general typing/use. No backlit key symbols on the caps, easily fixable though (buy new caps), and solid build. No manufacturing cutting corners it seems.

この値段でホットスワップできて、ロータリーエンコーダーも付いてて、接続状態が見られる小型ディスプレイも付いてて、その上ダストカバーまでついてるメカニカルキーボード。言うことないです。 打鍵感もよく、反響音なんかもなさそうで、かなり使い勝手がいいです。 スペースバーだけ打鍵音がかなり大きいので、静音用のOリングをつけましたが、それだけで十分音は抑えられます。 ただ気になったのは、ホワイトの商品画像ではLEDの位置が北向きになっていましたが、届いたものは南向きLEDでした。 光を透過するタイプのキーキャップに交換する予定の人は注意した方がいいかと。

Super Keyboard. Lieb, dass es ein deutsches Layout hat und immer noch Hotswappable. Es ist echt schwer sowas zu finden für einen vernünftigen Preis. Da ist Royal Kludge echt fantastisch. Es sieht sehr hübsch aus, besonders weil ich überwiegend ein weißes set-up habe. Ich wollte eine 75% Hot-Swap-Tastatur in Weiß, mit deutschem/EU-Layout und Drehknopf für Volume und mini LED Display und nicht über 100€. Das war so gut wie unmöglich zu finden, bis ich die M75 gefunden hatte. Habe jetzt nach einem Jahr keinen Tag bereut, diese Tastatur gekauft zu haben, und bin immer noch super happy mit ihr. Ich benutze die Tastatur aktuell mit anderen Switches von Akko und anderen Keycaps, damit sie noch besser klingt. Auch wenn ich sagen muss, dass die Tastatur auch so aus der Verpackung schon sehr sehr gut klingt.

Just got this keyboard, and the moment I started typing, I could tell it was something special. The typing sound is incredibly premium—crisp, smooth, and satisfying. It gives off an expensive feel, making every keystroke enjoyable. The build quality feels solid, and the functions are impressive so far. Everything is responsive, and the overall experience is just really good. Excited to keep using it!

J'ai acheté le clavier le 2 mai 2024 , disons que j'ai commencé son utilisation le 5 mai : voici mes retours : Au niveau de l'utilisation sans fil, c'est niquel. pas de décalage ou que sais-je, également il charge bien et a une bonne autonomie. Le logiciel du clavier est en anglais ,et est utile pour ce qui doit l'être ( les led etc.) Maintenant le gros soucis : les Keycaps, Déjà , lors de son arrivé, j'avais le "clips" du switch de la keycaps fissuré, résultat pas de touche suppr, mais étant donné que c'est pas une touche que j'utilise constamment, je m'en fiche, j'était un peu déçu mais sans plus. Maintenant je tiens à noter que je suis joueurs pc depuis beaucoup d'année, j'écris relativement vite et je tape "fort" avec mes doigts, le soucis ? La touche 8 s'est fissuré aussi. ducoup j'ai enlevé le keycaps aussi car le "clips " s'est fissuré , et a fini par se cassé. j'ai voulu la laissé tant bien que mal mais ça l'as juste cassé. C'est le seul soucis que j'ai a notifié. autonomie OK, poids etc OK , agréable au toucher, a l'écriture et le son également est bon. déçu des keycaps qui se "casse" (la photo sera plus explicit.) Tout le reste est top. peut être je n'ai pas eu de chance sur ces 2 touches qui avait un défaut ? je laisse le doute planer. Si vous chercher un clavier en 75% il est niquel pour le prix. 0 soucis a part celui notifié plus haut. MODIF : Aprés avoir fait appel au SAV, ils m'ont envoyé un lot entier de keycaps. a leur frais. et j'en suis clairement content. je n'ai plus aucun soucis, c'est un pur régal ! Modif a nouveau : plusieurs mois après la réception des nouveaux keycaps, aucun ne s'est brisé, détaché ou autre. ils font extrêmement bien leur boulot. de plus l'appuie des touches est toujours aussi agréable après plusieurs mois d'utilisation.

This RK keyboard sits at the high end of the "custom feeling but not actually custom" keyboard market. Brands like Red Dragon are on the cheaper end for a reference point. For the price, i would say this keyboard punches above its weight class. It feels as good as some of the custom high end boards ive come across but with far more going for it in terms of features. Wired, 2.4 ghz and 3 bluetooth profiles let me easily connect to my work pc, gaming pc, smart tv, and more without going into settings. Rgb and connection are managed on board, rather than through an app. You get less customization that way but honestly i cant stand how bad most of these companies apps are anyway. Part of the reason i stopped using my razer and got this instead. The inboard rgb profiles give you a good variety to choose from though so no complaints there. Build quality is NICE. Very dense premium feeling plastics, klacky keys that are noticable but not obnoxiously loud, bright and slick looking rgb, speedy connection, good battery life (love the indicator screen thats a nice touch. Makes controlling all this stuff easy) Overall, can you get a perfectly nice keyboard for cheaper than this? For sure. But if you want bang for your buck this thing packs quite a lot of quality and features for the price its at. Id say a good pre built keyboard will likely run you $100 before tax. But this thing is only like 50 bucks more when all is said and done and will take you from a good keyboard to an excellent one. Save the few extra bucks up and get this.
