@@gary8527 I can't confirm anything regarding switch compatibility, but I'd assume it's compatible with Cherry switches. You can get switches from KBDFans for a pretty good price, 90 Cherry MX Reds are about 45 dollars on that site.

Hey guys! Some notable things I caught on: .Some keyboards have a loud bounce or spring sound you didn’t pick up on .A lot of these are either discounted or price changing .Not necessary, but additional research on keycap material would be nice (e.g. is it abs, double shot, or what) .Once again optional but a dollar to euros and pounds would great But great video!

How is keyboard 5 fake rgb? You can literally change every color, the keyboard and mouse also both have software's. It also comes with a key remover and a wrist rest. You can also make your own colors and modes with the keyboard.
16:17 - I'm using that identical keyboard at this time (only in black), bought NEW for $10 at a local flea market in Tampa. They had a whole stack of them. The store bought Amazon overstocks in bulk and I used to get everything from headsets to gaming mice at ridiculous prices. Unfortunately, that flea market closed. HOWEVER, they do have an outlet store in the Lakeland Square Mall in Lakeland, FL, just north of Interstate 4 at the Highway 98 exit. Go check 'em out. 24:23 - How do you know how good the mouse is? You can tell the feel and overall impression, but the guts may be total crap. I just had to return a really nice mouse because I got in a game and moved the mouse quickly from left to right. My character immediately stared straight up and spun in circles, out of control. I exchanged the defective mouse for another of the same type. I hope that was just a random defect as I really like the weight, shape, texture, and button placement on this model.
My Wisfox was my favorite in a long list of gaming keyboards I've had. It's the best feeling, well-spaced keys, superb lighting with no light bleed, solid metal frame, the keys felt mechanical but were actually some sort of membrane hybrid and sounds very quiet. I actually spilled hot milk tea with sugar all over it that didn't affect it one bit. But the D and F keys wore off after 2 weeks and the spacebar just went to shit last night and I've only had it for less than 3 months.
See, this came out at a perfect time. I've been looking for a white tkl rgb mechanical keyboard, and I saw the red dragon one in rgb for I think it was $47. This reinforced my opinion and I think I'll get it
@Jason Cohen price must have dropped alot, i just got mine for 33$ on amazon and by far one of the best keyboards ive ever used, and ive used 100$ boards
I've been using Gigabyte K81 for couple of weeks now and I have to tell you that it is a very good keyboard. The top plate is metal, by the way, not plastic.
I actually own both the Hydong and the Eagletech keyboard. Both are great keyboards, but as it stands, I like Hydong for the swappable switches, and RGB lighting. However, the Eagletech has the weight of a true mechanical keyboard because of it's aluminum shell. Both runs well for me. I would also include the Chonchow mechanical keyboard. It has a "rainbow" led lighting effects, swappable switches and dedicated volume keys that runs under $30.
This video was perfect timing I just found that habit keyboard/mouse combo yesterday and was wondering about it. But to be fair about your ranking, I think a keyboard should have points off for not having RGB simply because that's always an option and makes it much easier to resell if/when desired. I do agree with the number pad part though that is genuinely a personal choice. So much that I actually skipped the red dragon one because ill be doing a lot of Excel work and etc. along with gaming and no number pad will really slow me down, so I agree there but in general my 2 complaints are. -more options = more value (RGB/ hot swap) -you should look at the product as a whole and this is specifically about the havit because that's how it was sold, the minor turn offs about it. Is it really worth buying a seperate mouse for even more just to have hot swap starting out?? Anyway thanks, I know this is long and you guys do a great job overall, thank you.
I saw a video that showed you could only input one button at a time on the mouse, idk how big of a deal that is but I think it might be imports but to some people
Over and Out it’s only really noticeable for like a few games like fortnite for shooters it’s fine , depending on your play style and button layout moba’s it could be bad. Yea maybe get another mouse but only if u really really play fortnite
Personally, I'd like to see a somewhat mechanical keyboard that has simple white backlit keys (for seeing in the dark), media keys and a volume wheel... a lot of mechanical keyboards lack volume wheels for some reason.
I generally always go with havit when looking for cheaper keyboards, currently I have the combo with the mouse. it is full rgb and well built for the price, one of the most reliable keyboard brands I’ve come across. The mouse is a nice solid matte plastic, and the brightness is adjustable for both. I realize this is probably late, but I really recommend the havit keyboard!
I checked the price of the Havit Keyboard + Mouse combo when this video came out. Since then, its gone up $10 and the others were not available. DANG IT!
Ima say this is accurate since there is two people confirming that if they have the same answer its more likely to bed bad or good depending on that rating
What's crazy is that the Eagletec keyboard in the beginning is quite literally the same as my ~$80 Redragon K550 without all of the multimedia, macros, and volume wheel, and it's got different switches (Outemu Purples). Mine also has wrist rest support. That's wild to me.
The thing I'm going to ask isn't about a keyboard, so I had a broken laptop and when I got it back they gave me a 120gb ssd and I'm wondering if a 120gb is enough for league of legends and Fortnite. Thanks.
i have a redragon k552 keyboard in black with brown switches and rgb. i got in for $27 and i believe its better than any of the keyboards on this list. great vid though!
The havit one is actually really good just a little loud. I’ve been on pc for a month and this is my first. Can’t wait to actually upgrade to a good one 😎
It doesn't go away even when you start a game. I thought it would only show on the desktop and not every window you open. Luckily I found a way to get rid of it through some settings.
It's been a year - time for a new ranking review...4 of the 5 are no longer available, and the one with the mouse is $40. Great reviews, though. Thanks guys!
I have the Gigabyte board and LOVE it. I've changed out the keycaps but the normal ones it came with were fine. It's a VERY heavy board. Wish I could find it in a TKL or smaller version.
The rk61 is a 60% rgb mechanical keyboard(red, black or blue switches) and its on sale now for 35$ on banggood. I think you guys should buy that one, thank me later ;)
If I were to buy a backlit keyboard, my preference would have to include brightness control as a factor. If the brightness was low visibility then why even have it?

a. they are out of stock
