Have similar redragon kb with hall effect keys. Def takes some getting used to. If I had to do over, I would get the ones with arrow keys included. Think it's 81 keys.

They've been around for a while. Quality is decent but it's clear they're not high-end keyboards. Several of our end users have them on their desks at the office, and they have held up fine over the years.

They've been around for some time now in the PC Peripherals market. They are primarily a budget-oriented brand that makes a wide assortment of products of varying quality. You could end up getting a great deal on a feature packed product that competes with other brands three times as expensive or something barely better than e-waste.

I wouldn't be opposed to taking a chance on this keyboard with Amazon's good return policy.

Just a note to consider, these keyboard lack dedicated arrow keys. You'll have to press the function key plus the WASD keys on the keyboard to use the arrow keys.

There are a few other colors, but only some are HE versions.
Black and Orange are a dollar cheaper ($27) and are HE. Gray and Pink are slightly cheaper than that but do NOT have HE switches.
One of the complaints (certainly not the only one though) is the switches, and those seem to be complaints on the non-HE versions of this keyboard.

It is missing a lot of keys! I don't need a numeric keypad, but man, no arrow keys, no home or end or pgup/pgdn. I guess if you are only gaming and doing nothing else with it, it is OK.

I've had poor luck with this brand. Keys stop working after a few months. Have returned and replaced a few times

I have had one of their mechanical (non-HE) keyboards for nearly 10 years. It does the job even though I abused it over the years without much cleaning. It finally had an issue with the f key after a hard press. Bought a replacement redragon mechanical keyboard but fixed the issue with f key by grabbing and pulling up. Still running.

Am i the only one that is constantly using the arrow keys? seems kinda painful to have to use a combo just to move around a document or code.

I've noticed Microcenter is starting to carry the brand. They must be starting to gain popularity, whoever they are
