So, I bought this keyboard some time ago. This is my first MK, before this I only used the mac book one.

First things first, I have always been an avid MK hater. I always preached how to the apple inbuilt is so much better. But the inbuilt keyboard got dirty so often that it was almost always sticky, hence I thought to give MKs a try.

The one I went for is the Redragon K617 Fizz, since I did not want to spend a bucket on something I might not even like moving forward. I asked a couple of mates what they think I should go for and this was the main deal. So I bought it for about 2400 which as of now feels pretty justified.

Since I use a mac, I have no application support- but till now I have had zero issues. I can change colour locally on the keyboard and even set a specific colour which is a plus. I like the build, its quite sturdy and functions pretty well for the price. After using this for some time- the inbuilt just feels so much inferior. I used the mac's inbuilt settings to change some of the binds since the 'command' button on this was different- but it works perfectly now.

So anyone out there thinking if MKs are better or worse, then this is the answer.

The issues I have had is that it doesn't have arrow keys, it hasn't bothered me much but it is a slight pain. And the it does have a lot of height so I do get wrist pain after a prolonged periods of time, but I assume that comes with any MK.

Only sometimes the key I pressed doesn't register, I don't know if this is the keyboard's fault or mine since the inbuilt has really low travel so I might be tuned to hit the key pretty light.

I like the sound, its not too much- nor too less, feels just optimum. I have no idea about customisation and all so probably not gonna do anything. I don't do gaming, only projects that involve typing and I did not expect this but my max wpm went from 130 to 139 on a MK, so thats a plus as well.

So if you are looking into this keyboard, I'd give it a yes.

Thanks.
